‼️ Russia has begun striking Kyiv with modernized anti-ship Oniks missiles — the enemy is trying to conserve other ballistic missiles for future strikes.
What is known:
• They fly at very low altitudes and can follow the terrain.
• These characteristics significantly complicate detection and also reduce reaction time for their interception.
• Russia moved launcher units of the Bastion coastal defense system, which are the launch systems for Oniks, to the Kursk and Bryansk regions earlier this summer.
• Oniks differ from Tsirkon in speed, although their principle and the damage they cause are almost the same.
For comparison:
• Tsirkon travels at over 7000 km/h.
• Oniks-M has a speed from 1000 to 3000 km/h.
