According to him, the BRSD cannot be intercepted, as NATO and the United States do not have the necessary means.

We have already tested "Oreshnik", and these missiles are available in sufficient quantities.

The publication "Voennoye Delo" noted that in the final flight segment, the warheads of "Oreshnik" accelerate to 3 km/sec. This means they cover 180 km in just one minute.

For this, refractory metals are used in the warheads, including tungsten, explained air defense forces historian Yuri Knutov.

Chinese analysts from the Sohu portal added that the invulnerability of "Oreshnik" to air defense and electronic warfare systems is due to the use of Soviet lamps, which simply do not perceive interference.

At the same time, the appearance of the "Oreshnik" ballistic missile launcher has not been officially disclosed. "Pervyy Tekhnicheskiy" in a large article discussed what it might look like.
