Catch up on the developing stories making headlines.MOSCOW -- A new intercontinental weapon that can fly 27 times the speed of sound became operational Friday,'s defense minister reported to President Vladimir Putin, bolstering the country's nuclear strike capability.
Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu informed Putin that the first missile unit equipped with the Avangard hypersonic glide vehicle entered combat duty. Putin unveiled the Avangard among other prospective weapons systems in his state-of-the-nation address in March 2018, noting that its ability to make sharp maneuvers on its way to a target will render missile defense useless.The Russian leader noted that Avangard is designed using new composite materials to withstand temperatures of up to 2,000 Celsius resulting from a flight through the atmosphere at hypersonic speeds.
Earlier this week, Putin emphasized that Russia is the only country armed with hypersonic weapons. He noted that for the first time Russia is leading the world in developing an entire new class of weapons, unlike in the past when it was catching up with the U.S. The Defense Ministry said last month it demonstrated the Avangard to a team of U.S. inspectors as part of transparency measures under the New Start nuclear arms treaty with the U.S.The Kinzhal , which is carried by MiG-31 fighter jets, entered service with the Russian air force last year. Putin has said the missile flies 10 times faster than the speed of sound, has a range of more than 2,000 kilometers and can carry a nuclear or a conventional warhead.
Oh my
Ummm ABC, I thought we didn't trust Russia. Might want to get a quote from our highly respected 'Intelligence Organizations' before report this shit as fact. I mean, you aren't trusting the Russians over our own intelligence agencies are you?
I hope our missiles are a bit faster 🙏🏻
Does he think this is important?
Congratulations Putin!
That same Missile will be the one to destroy us cause of Trump!
Can’t aim at that speed!!
Here's a pill....(popped)
Whats the piont there not going to use it
Almost as fast as Santa Claus!
It goes so fast it travels back in time and saves the Soviet Union from falling.
wildwillow65 Nice to see Russia continues to do its part to improve life for everyone on planet Earth.
Time to nuke Moscow
Ya right
Did Putin get that weapon from Trump as a lot of people are claiming?
Yeah and our Government would tell the world if they have something comparable or better....We only know about the weapons & defenses they want us to know about. Not worried about Russia or Rocketman.
And why are you spewing this Russian propaganda on here? We are America ... Not Russia !!! Who cares
Great Weapon, invented to Easily Wipe All=Earth & Beings, into Hell, 2nd Death & BottomlessPit accordingly, goin FireLake& Brimstone 4outrightPreaching Deception, as Commanded by their LeftistRebelGod=Old Serpent Subtil Beast. See Genesis 3 & Revelation6:1-17& 20:10-15
And...
Пентагон будет разрушен, поэтому лучше не выёбываться!
Sure it can
Just more scare tactics to get taxpayers to folk over 750 billion a year to the DoD. Quit with the fact propaganda. We need to cut the defense budget in half.
All of the media and Dems can cheer for their homeland of Russia now. Then blame Trump for something stupid.
Q hacemos con la ‘putina’ mentiros 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Russian puppet in the White House is currently more of a threat. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
trump’s boss FakePresident
There goes the neighborhood
This technology has been in development for some time. It’s another Cold War scenario. Russians are beating the USA on many fronts including a president they can control.
Meh, all outer space rockets can do that, big deal bozo
Bull
So when is the demonstration. I'll believe it when I see it. But for now, I don't believe any Russian scare tactics.
When it gets out of control, as it will, it is going to do real damage. Just what we need in the world. Paranoid fucking Trump and paranoid fucking Putin. Why can't we all get along, clean up the world and make money all at the same time? Explain this to me.
27 times the speed of sound? I doubt that
Still mad that Reagan had them go bust trying to keep up with the bogus Star Wars project.
Rail gun?
claudioedantas Very disruptive in the context of the militar world order, if not, promising.
You mean /American military
Operational but not very accurate, by their own admission. However, if equipped with a 200 megaton bomb, perfect accuracy is not a priority.
I’m ready for my 72 sluts
New Russian weapon can travel 27 times the speed of sound; and is now operational.😫😖🤨🙄🇺🇸🇷🇺
That's weaponry that might have the potential to change some things. Speed of delivery is a noteworthy factor
Reminder: Hillary and Obama sold them 20% of our uranium
Iku deeee 😣
claudioedantas Fake news.
345 miles per minute. Damn!
20,709 mph depending on air temperature.
Did they get the SAP from Hillary’s unsecured server?
Nobody knew nothing about the Atomic bomb until Nagasaki was rubbles. And I'm not speaking of their currency.
Leftists will continue to scream about how we should lower defense spending, however
This isn't a lie if they're referring to the internet.
Does all sound travel the same speed? Asking for a phriend..
They would show us on video but they are afraid it will vear off course and land in Moscow during New Years
HayatAlvi It flies so fast how would one even know it exists?
Oh, yes...of course...that's it, Mr. Putin, I mean...Czar Putin
The rise of the Bear and the Panda is becoming more threatening by the day.
They lie almost as much as the Demoncratts do too
Eight years of Obama, three years of Trump , it’s Trumps fault 🤔
Impossible to control on a target. They have to steer it a target before it even lifts off they must have Huawei 5 k tech
STREAM YUMMY JANUARY 3
It was so powerfull I could feel it from here in hoquiam Washington...it hit D.C. the good news is it protocols back...hmmm
ABC was wrong for over 3 years pushing the Russian Hoax; therefore, not fooled again
All Lies!!
I would question the operational status everything about this system has been made too public by the Kremlin.
If it’s faster than the speed of sound, how did we hear about it? Fake news
wowza. Big man.
ABC = deep state fear mongering. LOOK! SQUIRREL!
i dont care. they're not going to use it any time soon so this FEAR MONGERING PROPAGANDA is a waste of my time.
Sad we can't teach the Trumps to say, 'Russkie Hui'. Like the good ole days.
Why can’t this creep just play Call of a Duty like everyone else...
War planes...crash Subs...sunk Aircraft carrier...damaged...TWICE while docked Nuclear missiles...exploded on their own people Their mercenaries...wipes out by American troops Their military...garbage ...All in 2019
But cant fix a receding hairline for Putin
claudioedantas Vem Apocalipse, o Nibiru não chegou
Congratulations on this invention.
If true, why announce it?
20,709 MPH is really slow. Let me know when they have one that can travel 670,616,629 MPH.
No need to worry or fear ABC News Comrade Putin is a devoted friend and Allie of Trump with the many lectures the Ex-KGB Colonel has had with the President he reassured him and being the idiot Trump is he fell for it.
So what. Putin's best weapon donald Chumpo moves 2 miles an hour and has already done enough damage for 20 years 🍊💩 🤡
I suspect this is BS on their part.
They also have Oval Office Occupant
Ain’t that some shit
They won’t use it. Not on any country.
AND YOUR POINT IS?
ANY nuclear expert can tell u what GREY SNOW is :( *i didnt i looked it up at the time*
if u saw my dream re grey snow from a couple yrs ago ud be FREAKED OUT TOO :(
No matter how arrogant Putin pretends to be a weapon, the missile shield system in Romania and Poland is able to deter him.
I always believe Russia 😉
If they launch them at us we'll retaliate & there won't be enough of them left to have a block party.
Yeah right.
Except if he uses it. Russia will be toast. What a waste of money by this megalomaniac.
Which means 9.26 KM per second.
I can see Obama's RESET is still intact and producing results
You mean words from Putin’s mouth to 45’s ear?
lishih_h 韓国や中国が言うとウソっぽいけど、ロシアが言うと素直にすごいなと思ってしまう。
Thanks to realDonaldTrump for the United States turning a blind eye and deaf ear to Russian aggression so a weapon that could be our demise could become operational. They couldn’t have done it without your help POTUS.
Better get Greta on the job.Have a chat to Val.Leave you guns at home son.
Read: Our dick is bigger than yours. 🙄
We do not have anything like that, who did they steal it from, Rocket Man?
Riiiiiiiight. Sure it is.
Trump and GOP did Putin’s task to destroy the US from the inside.
Oh goody deranged Donald has given America to Putin.
Lets stop fighting then we live peacifull world🙏
You dorks can't take a tiny piece of land from some Ukrainian farmers, nobody's too worried
Lmao fly fast into the sea when it’s aiming for a city.
Senile Bernie Sanders can stand up to Putin? Ya right. Creepy Joe or Pocahontas? Be serious. Sure the Dems are hilarious to listen to. But America, this is not a joke. Trump is the only leader who can successfully take America through the coming crucial years.
Yes, but can it destroy the Magnitsky Act?
Not an arms wonk but current US ICBM's have similar speeds.
'Quick Kill'
Russian military talk like new intercontinental weapon, we fly 27 times speed sound, we know operation good.
Donald was a good investment for Russia. Hillary would have been a disaster for them, Putin chose the right asset, oops, I meant asshole.
Can leave Russia, and hit Russia in record time. 🤔
That news turns Trump* on.
May he be removed from office for the good of the Russian people and the world piece.
We've all goin to have to suffer for this so call president stupidity vanity and ignorant attitude
Stay the hell out of our election’s!!!!
Propaganda. They can’t get a boat to float, and you think they’re doing this?
Escalating
More results of 45pp✳️’s MRGA!
That is 133 times more powerful than Hiroshima and no way to stop it. By the time the military confirms the launch and target, it will be only to report where it has hit, the people will not hear a thing until the weapon wipes them out.
Proud of you Putin. You are a real man.
Hey, guys. While you spent three years playing political theater because Hillary Clinton is the biggest sore loser in history we were busy building weapons
All lies!!!
Wow they could have spent all that energy and time on greening their country off natural gas and oil but the gas companies like America have infiltrated theirs and our government systems and the result is the same suicide/murder.
But do they have Space Force?
So stupid: this 🌎 needs us all to have peace and accept our differences. If anyone of our weapons go off the whole world will be part of it. You are no longer in a vacuum. What one part of the world does negatively another part is hurt by. Enough.
Don't trust Russians
США может спать спокойно.Россия их защитит от радикалов.
It is just another evidence that Russia-China-Iran anti-democracy group has been targeting US as their number one enemy.
“...imitates life...”
Everyone is buiding arms except Africa....
And their economy?
And people think we are the most powerful.... misguided USA narcissism.
When you prepare for war, you hope for atrocity! There are better ways of showing strength other than arms.
Who will they use it on?
In other news, Russia’s only aircraft carrier offline due to fire. priorities
How on earth does that put food on the table of millions of poor people in world?
That sounds like 27 times the bull sheeet. Maybe they mean when it falls from near space.
Big lie,no country can do before AMERICA. Russian tools are most of the time strong by words,in practice most of the time They are crushed.
Is this supose to scare the U.S. and the world? I should have died in Iraq several times over. Russia don't scare me one bit. You can only die once.
I don’t know if that thing can fly 27 times the speed of sound ,President Putin talks about, have a Disc shape or not!?
And it’s called Putin’s fart😂😂
Thanks in part to Trump's complacency, we are going to have more trouble with this a** clown than if Hillary was in office...I never thought I'd see the day I'd say that.
Here's the Question? Can the United States Stop it?
We’ll be okay.
I'm not scared. But nice try.
Is Putin exaggerating? Of course he is. But even if he is, a missile half this speed is still a concern.
Just great!! 3 years is all it takes them to make Russia Great Again.
Okay? Just let me know when we lose the ability to destroy them a thousand times over.
Way to go Trump!
Such a bold statement coming from a country with a well known history of lying, cheating and pushing false narratives. I'm very skeptical of Putin's assertion. Especially considering the Russian military is crumbling and rusting away due to lack of military spending.
Unlike a icbm their weapon is not moving in a straight arc. It has a fission powered engine and is maneuverable to evade counter weapons.
Who are they going to use it against?😂😂😂😂 Aliens
Baiting trump with FAKE NEWS
When will drumphf praise ras-Putin for making such an incredible piece of weaponry.
ICBMs from the 60’s already hit Mach 22+ so whats the big deal? They cannot take out submarines so any first strike idea is null because the subs would demolish them on the counter strike.
Speed of sound 🤦🏽♂️
MAGA!!! winning PutinsGOP MoscowMitch
Does it use the latest Chernobyl level technology?
And Trump is only concerned about windmills and dishwashers.
That’s fine I won’t see it coming and I’ll Die faster then I know it. Better then Dying from Cancer that’s for sure
Well you should see Ivanka's new shoes.
so that mean that the weapon can travel at 9.2km per second. if the missile were deploy from moscow, it only need less than 14 minutes to reach new york. can you imagine?
Hmmm is a highly amazing scientific advancement
Maybe so but we have better toilets n lightbulbs...
Great
Time to call on Captain of Star Command! Buzz Lightyear Space (force) Ranger Set your lasers from stun to kill, muddafucka
Ok I kidding... maybe not......
I don't believe a word of it.
Sounds like a threat
Awesome-thanks Democrats and mainstream media for picking a fight based on a complete lie that Trump’s staff colluded with Russia. You guys are clearly NOT the enemy of the State.
I’m pretty sure this is just flexing at this point
Soon as its used ,..say goodbye Russia !
Thanks to Putin and his global henchmen (Trump et al) its as though the 80's are back. Hope he's ready for another fall.
'It can fly 27 ti...no wait. A hundred. Faster! Anyway, you'll never know it's coming. Then, BOOM! Donnie's toilet problem, KAPUT'! 15FlushBOMB
Maybe Trump's twin, Kim, will use his secret weapon
That’s how a lie gets half way around the world before the truth even gets out of bed.
Putin's face should be in the dictionary under 'psychopath'
I guess that means that it will be tested on the United States!
Check this out
Ronald Reagan said Russia was evil YaDig ✌🏿
It's a piece of crap.
What’s The Point?! ...Not Going To War For You Really Don’t Want To Started A Reality Shining A Lighted On Theses Demonic Actors Who’d Liked To Remain In The Shadows. They Know When We Outed Evil Evil Is No Longer Is Part Of The News; The Fruits Of The Spirit Are - All GOD-Amen
But our president is more concerned with a cameo in a 20 year old film that he was cut out of. Unfit, unqualified. Totally out of his element. Pathetic
Yes - but Trump was cut out of Home Alone 2!
The lasers the US is developing travels at the speed of light.
What do we have, a cuisinart!?
Trump will love this
Every time Trump is going through another major downfall, Putin pounces. The day after impeachment, a Russian ship nearly hit a US ship, and now he’s bragging about his war power. He must be loving this show he created.
And.....?
Bullshit!
So it will strike before you can hear it. Great.
We ain't scurred!
Putin has sold this missile on to Kim -it can reach the US heartland from North Korea-nice going, Dumpster Don, you are truly the horse’s ass of foreign policy makers!
Sure Jan.
I call bullshit.
we have toilets that can get rid of a single turd in one flush. We were prepared for this.. when he lauches the middle we will all flush at the same time making the us sink 4 inches and the missile will go right over us. 4d chess my friends.
So who g.a.s. if armageddon takes 10 minutes or 40 minutes ? morons
Show us the data...who says so ? Putin?
The Russian Military says, “America kiss our ass”, at 27 times the speed of sound. It’s new Intercontinental weapon, Donald J. Trump —is now operational.
🧢
Nice way to end the year! I wonder what Trumps response will be?
Only One person can stop it.....
Fkn lies.
That’s 20,716.263 mph
You're full of it
Oh, great. So they’re planning to blow up Saturn or what? 🥴
Who timed it Kim Jong-un?
🧢
I think it likely the US has all the technology & development to build one right now~ all that remains is tooling up & doing it~ defending against it is a US priority since we are not a First Strike nation Our use of Nukes will be in retaliation We’ve used 2 already. 1945
Hello Space Force? Come in, Space Force!
Wow 27 huh
I am faster
Yeah fucking right. 27,000 ft p/second?
Hudge Lie, there is no weapon to be fabricated by any country before USA.
Sure it can. Hahahaha. Russian technology...
The U.S. is soft, this could be easy. Remember who has the codes?
Rut roh.
And Trump helped you?
I bet we do too.
Serious question... Could this be the technology that US military pilots have witnessed and recorded in recent years, and is categorized as UFOs?
It uses magic.
Build a wall?
We have Sharks with 'LAZERS'
That minute hand is seriously straining to click, One Minute.
😡 game on bitches 😇
Sure it does......
Oh great! That’s. Just. Great.
I’m sure, but let’s build a wall:(
Nobody the first time Russia is claiming something they didn't achieve. Watch out for the animation video of their claim. They do this a lot.
Oh, goody! Putin & Trump will soon celebrate together.
*Apocalypse, Now? App* “No self-respecting authoritarian should leave home without it. “ Putin
Terrifying
Call cap
I want one
Just like the Death Star and we all know how that ended haha
Hope the RusziaGate morons are happy I think they are going to get that 2nd cold war they wanted so much
27 times, really? 🤔
What's the point?
Not worried since I own a Dodge Ram with a 5 star safety rating
space force will zap them.
Pardon?
Doubtful 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
