"Recently Collected": Expertise confirmed a blow to Kiev by a new "Zircon" rocket (video)
Oleksandr Ruvin, director of the KNISE Institute, reported details on Telegram. Marking on parts and debris, identification of parts and units indicates the features of the appropriate type of weapon. He said that the rocket was directed to a location where there were no military sites at all, civilian infrastructure and civilians were injured.
Experts emphasized that in the missiles of the Russian Federation there are parts that can be used in several types of products, others - nodes only for specific samples. In this case, elements that are characteristic of Circon were identified. The rocket consists of components, denoted by the corresponding marking of 3l22, 3V22, etc. At the date of production of its components indicate a total marking for rockets - 3m22. This is the period-at the end of 2023 or early 2024.
At the date of production of its components, other markings on the wreckage of the rocket are indicated. This means that the rocket has been collected recently. Microelectronics, as noted by experts, is practically not analyzed due to physical damage. Measures are carried out to determine the composition of metal from the fragments of the rocket body and thermal insulation materials. Identification complicates significant fragmentation of the rocket.
The Ukrainian military observers reported that during a massive attack on Ukraine on February 7, the Russians hit Kiev with an anti -ship "Zircon". The evidence of this is the atypical flight trajectory, as well as the detail, which indicates the marking - ZM22. According to the speaker of the Air Force Yuri Ignat, the missiles, which attacked Kiev on February 7, were moving behind the ballistic trajectory. However, the exact types of rockets will be set by experts.
