“We are not talking in vain, there is no bragging here, we really understand that for 30-35-40 years ahead Sarmat will provide the basis for our security,” said Rogozin, quoted by Interfax.
He noted that modern and even promising US missile defense systems "will not have time to respond to the entry of Sarmat into space."
“And to catch him further is almost impossible.
This is a missile that has unique invulnerability characteristics,” the head of the state corporation added.
As the commander of the Strategic Missile Forces Sergey Karakaev noted, the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile can be equipped with several Avangard hypersonic warheads.
