The material emphasizes that Sarmat, more than 200 tons, is 6 times heavier and twice as long as the American nuclear missiles Minuteman III. At the same time, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that the Sarmat PC-28 can bypass all modern anti-missile systems because it has better tactical and technical characteristics. "When you test new systems, you have to expect errors initially.
But in the case of Sarmat it looks like a big mistake," said Timothy Wright International Institute for Strategic Studies. He suggested that the problem with the PC-28 may be a liquid power plant, since Russia may have difficulty with similar technologies. The European missile expert Marcus Schiller claims that Russia is not a "good picture" in the development of these weapons. "This incident once again shows that not everything is smooth in the Russian weapon industry," he said.
At the same time, Christian Melling, of the International Media Conserne Betelsmann, believes that such unsuccessful tests of "Sarmat" only harm the image of the Russian Federation. "Experts look at the development of Sarmat and now laugh at heart," he notes. We will remind, satellite images showed that in Russia the launch of the rocket "Sarmat" failed. Osint-researcher George Barros suggested that the explosion occurred almost immediately after start.
