"Size matters": Diplomat Ryabkov spoke about what impressed him about the Sarmat missile

The strategic missile system will overcome any modern missile defense system

The RS-28 "Sarmat" strategic missile system is guaranteed to overcome both existing and developing missile defense (PRO) systems. This opinion was expressed by Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov.

I was personally very impressed by the gas generator firing, which has no comparable systems in terms of diameter anywhere.
Sergey Ryabkov, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia

According to him, in the case of "Sarmat", "size matters". No country in the world has a similar complex in terms of power and range, the diplomat added.

Experts across the ocean "are no less aware of this than we are", but do not want to "create advertising" for the Russian missile. But the footage of the RS-28 "Sarmat" launch, published by the Ministry of Defence, "speak for themselves", Ryabkov emphasized.

Earlier, Commander of the Strategic Missile Forces Sergey Karakaev reported to Vladimir Putin on the successful launch of the RS-28 "Sarmat". It is expected that the first regiment with this intercontinental ballistic missile will go on combat duty by the end of 2026.
