Bild: Germany’s skies are defenseless against Orsnik
According to Webangah News quoted by Mehr News Agency quoted Rashatudi, the German Bild newspaper wrote in a report that the country’s air defense is not able to effectively repel the Russian “Urannik” surface-to-air missiles from Berlin.
The Orshnik medium-range hypersonic missile, which is capable of carrying a variety of warheads, including nuclear warheads, was first used on November 21, and the Russian military used it to attack military installations. -Ukraine industry in Dnipro city used it. After that attack, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Orchnik’s speed was 10 times the speed of sound and could not be intercepted by any of the existing air defenses.
Bild wrote in a report that the German Foreign Ministry has ordered comprehensive studies on the defense capabilities of Berlin and Kiev amid the possible ballistic threat from Russia. Diplomats of the German Foreign Ministry, in what seemed to be an illegal entry into the territory of the Ministry of Defense of this country, took help from the expertise of a liaison officer and air defense specialists active in the German army.
According to Bild, their conclusion was that “Germany is defenseless against an attack by Orchnik.” By referring to the mentioned documents, Bild warned that the US-made “Patriot” air defense system is not suitable for dealing with long-range ballistic missiles, including the Uransik.
In the assessment of the German Foreign Ministry, it is also stated that “due to the high speed and maneuverability of the Orsnik missile, its possible interception and downing will be a chance.”
Putin said on Thursday last week that although Moscow does not yet have a large number of missiles and is not in a hurry to use them, if needed “it is possible to use them in the near future.” »
