Russian Kh-101 cruise missiles for strategic bombers Tu-95 and Tu-160 have an interesting feature, diving at the target at a very steep angle. This was reported by the American edition TWZ.
Observer Thomas Newdick noted that the missile falls on the ground at a steep angle, followed by a series of explosions corresponding to a cluster warhead.
In his opinion, the maximum range of the Kh-101 missile is up to 4000 km, and it was mass-produced in 2010-2011. Distinctive features of the Kh-101 are reduced radar signature and the presence of a system of jamming.
Preliminary characteristics of the Kh-101:
- Length - 7.45 m
- Take-off weight - up to 2400 kg
- Accuracy (circular probable deviation) - up to 20 m
