It is noted that the ammunition could explode at any time. According to the Ukrainian military, the rocket was intercepted to achieve the goal. In addition, this is not the first case of use of X-69 on Ukrainian facilities: earlier such rockets were recorded during strikes on Trypillian TPP in 2024.
The aviation expert and the executive director of the analytical project "Militar" Vadim Kushnikov stated that the appearance of the X-69 at the Ukrainian Theater of Miting indicates the growing shock potential of Russia. Weapons are a stealth rocket with an extended combat radius and the possibility of using cassette charges, the expert said. According to various data, the maximum range of the rocket can reach 400 km, although the developer - KB "Raduga" - officially declares 290 km.
This range allows you to run X-69 outside the area of defeat of most Ukrainian air defense systems. "We saw that these weapons have shown considerable destructive potential because the power plant was failed for a long period," Kushnikov said.
