According to Gerasimov, the mentioned complex was involved in Steadfast Defender's exercises, but no NATO country has a system with a similar name. Analysts suggest that the Russian General could combine the American hypersonic system "Dark Eagle" and a medium -range missile complex "Typhoon", creating a hybrid name "Dark Typhoon" that does not really exist.
It is noteworthy that Gerasimov read his speech "on the cheat sheet" during the speech, so it is difficult to say who became the author of "Dark Typhon" - Gerasimov himself or his speech. This error has become another example of contradictions in the statements of the Russian leadership.
For example, in November, President Vladimir Putin gave inaccuracies in terms of serial production of RS-26 "Orezhnik" rocket-he first declared his readiness and then specify that production would only begin in the future. Another reason for criticism was the statement of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation about the whipped Ukrainian planes. According to Russian officials, the number of aircraft destroyed exceeds the total number of NATO aviation in Europe.
