Twisted immediately after the start: new photos of the Sarmat rocket explosion appeared

Osint-researcher George Barros believes that during the Sarmat test, those who watched the test were killed. After the explosion, the Russian rocket "Sarmat" left a large crater with a diameter of 62 meters, judging by Maxar satellite images. OSINT researcher George Barros believes that the nature of damage on the starting ground indicates that the rocket exploded almost immediately after ignition or start.

Barros noted that a large crater and great damage inside and around the starting ground are visible at the site of the starting mine. "Yesterday (September 21), Maxar has collected new satellite images with high resolution, on which the consequences of dramatic failure were engraved during the launch of the Russian IBR PC-28 on the launching platform Plesetsk," Osint-researchers said.

In addition, small fires are ongoing in the east of the starting complex in the Arkhangelsk region, and four fire trucks can be seen near the destroyed mine. Bring the picture, Barros noted that the building near the crater was completely destroyed. He suggested that if someone was watching the test, then they all died. Sarmat is a strategic fifth -generation missile complex with a heavy three -stage liquid intercontinental ballistic missile.

The 35-meter rocket weighs 208 tons, and the mass of throwing is about 10 tons. The rocket flight range is 16 thousand km. Sarmat's explosion force - 50 megaton. In April 2024, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported a successful test of an intercontinental ballistic missile at the Kabbin Yar landfill in the Astrakhan region. However, the name of the rocket was not indicated.

In September 2023, the Russian State Corporation "Roscosmos" stated that the strategic missile complex "Sarmat" was "put on combat duty". While appealing to the Federal Assembly in 2018, Vladimir Putin argued that Sarmat's missile would be able to attack goals not only through the North but also through the South Pole, overcome the missile defense system and will bear high power nuclear supplies, including hypersonic.
