Media: Russia conducted the second flight test of the Sarmat missile

12

Western sources report that on February 20, the second flight test of the new intercontinental ballistic missile "Sarmat" was conducted in Russia. At the same time, it is indicated that it allegedly ended in failure.

The first launch of Sarmat was made from the Plesetsk cosmodrome on April 20, 2022.



The latest missile launch was reported, in particular, by CNN, citing two American officials familiar with the situation. At the same time, it was noted that the tests were allegedly specially carried out on the day of Joseph Biden's visit to Kyiv.

Meanwhile, the deputy head of the Russian diplomatic department, Sergei Ryabkov, denied reports that the missile tests were unsuccessful. In his opinion, at present there are a lot of information stuffing in the world mass media and it is not necessary to pay attention to it.

In addition, the United States denied the information about the deliberate launch of the Sarmat during the stay of the American president in Ukraine - this was reported by Bloomberg, citing one of the responsible officials. According to him, the Russian side warned Washington in the framework of START about the planned tests, which is a common practice in such cases. According to the source, Moscow's actions did not come as a surprise to the American side and are not a threat to the security of the United States.

      A tradition since the time of the Union, when they launched, commissioned, shouted cheers for the corresponding holidays. But alas, in the Brezhnev era, it was often unsuccessful. I remember a similar situation, when officials fussed, but then Putin advised not to rush and it would be better to double-check everything. Here, it seems, they decided to take a risk.

        In the Brezhnev era, the USSR had 60.000 tanks and the second largest economy, for all its shortcomings. The shuttle "Buran" was successfully launched in automatic mode and landed on the airfield after the flight.

          so then we were in a state of "stagnation", and now we are "flourishing", but in general, as in a joke of those times - communism passed, but we did not notice

          Ilya, what does the Buran flight have to do with Brezhnev, who died in 1982? I am already silent that it was precisely from the stagnant decomposition and degradation of the Brezhnev elite that the expected liquidation of the Union began (plus the wild launch of the "printing press" of the State Bank and the placement of Western loans if you still did not know) and DURING the flight of the "Buran" the USSR was no longer 2 th economy of the world, in the late 1980s, Japan became the 2nd economy. Of course, the period 1975-1983 (partially falling on the late Brezhneve period) is the peak of the power of the USSR, both industrial and military, plus the highest level of Soviet social development, but there are no merits of Leonid Ilyich in this, in order to achieve that peak - it was necessary to to go through the monstrous trials of the Civil, Great Patriotic War, to smack before Stalin (even before 1917, if you dig deeper), under Stalin and after him to Brezhnev (no matter how anyone belongs to the Khrushchev period), to lose a gigantic number of people in the 20th century, to do what called millions of feats. And finally, start getting nishtyaki from the richest oil and gas fields (which were discovered by no means under Brezhnev by people trained in this, of course, not in Brezhnev times) of the huge Tyumen region, as a result of which the Brezhnev leap in the social development of the Soviet people became possible. This is in a nutshell (it can be longer and about many other things, just too lazy) why Brezhnev is not even worth mentioning, for just pulling the "Dnepropetrovsk clan" and Galina in diamonds to rule the country - Lena's aspen stake is supposed to be in the coffin.

          It's not about 60000 tanks, it's about eggs.

      After the second flight test of the new intercontinental ballistic missile "Sarmat", the United States went to wash their pants.

      Successfully, unsuccessfully, we will find out in 3 years. If there is anyone.
      For now, everything should be kept secret.

        There are no more secrets. In Russia especially. The current campaign has shown this especially clearly. The most top-secret secrets become known to the enemy long before they reach the performers.

          syndicalist, the funniest thing is that you fully described the practice and reality of the overseas gigimonlaughing, just these passengers, in general, for the last decades have not been able to keep secret either military developments or geopolitical ideas, complete degradation. With regards to us, many years of practice has shown perfectly that the collective ZAPPD knows nothing at all about Russia's military secrets being prepared or about its steps, only hundreds of gossip and options.

        Only for our citizens are secrets, the Western media have long pointed to the refusal of the 2nd stage of Sarmat. Nothing, always at the initial stage, children's problems, they are overcome. For our media: we need to tell the truth, and we will be strong with the truth.
