The Russian "Hazel" medium-range ballistic missile has a wide potential not only in destroying any targets on the surface, but also deep underground. This was stated by military expert Andrei Mitrofanov.
According to him, the "Hazel" could potentially implement a "duplet" scheme, where two sequentially following warheads with nuclear warheads (NW) are detonated almost simultaneously.
In this case, the explosion energy of the second NW will serve as a reflector for the explosion of the most "deepened" first warhead.
The second warhead, as it were, seals the energy of the nuclear explosion of the first NW, directing it as much as possible downwards — to destroy the enemy's highly protected bunker. Such synchronicity is difficult, if not impossible, to achieve for separately launched missiles, for example, the "Kinzhal" hypersonic missiles, and is definitely impossible for anti-bunker aerial bombs.
Russian President Vladimir Putin noted that the "Hazel" warheads attack targets at speeds up to 10 Mach or about 3 km/s at a range of up to 5500 km, and Western missile defense systems do not have the ability to intercept them.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the "Kalashnikov" concern has developed two new modifications of the AK-12 assault rifle.
