"Oreshnik" - a "superweapon" or not? A single strike in terms of damage turned out to be equal to 21 Iskander-M missiles

Will be a death sentence in the affected area

The Russian hypersonic medium-range missile "Oreshnik", in terms of the power of a single strike, can be compared to an attack by 21 missiles of the Iskander-M OTRK. This is stated in the material of Topwar publication.

The authors suggested that if the warhead of "Oreshnik" is 3 tons, then a single strike, equivalent to almost 21 Iskander missiles, could be a death sentence for many objects within the affected radius.

At the same time, even with a possible mass of 1.2 tons, the equivalent in "Iskanders" is 8.5 warheads of the OTRK.

It should not be forgotten that "Oreshnik" may have the ability to deliver this warhead to a range of up to 5000 km, and possibly even more, and in just 15 minutes - no other conventional weapon is capable of this in principle.
