"Included fantasy." Russia struck in Kiev by the missiles "Zircon" as they were launched from Crimea

The rocket strike of the Russian army in the capital of Ukraine was unexpected: Balistics flew almost 600 kilometers in three minutes. The Armed Forces of the Armed Forces declared the destruction of all goals, but the people of Kiev heard numerous explosions. The focus understood whether such attacks would occur more often. On March 25, a series of powerful explosions was heard in Kiev on March 25 after announcement of air alarm.

Monitoring channels wrote about the launches of hypersonic missiles "Zircon" of vertical trigger containers deployed in Crimea. Another version is an attack by the anti -ship "Onyx" of a new type of range. Several rockets overcame a distance of 580 kilometers to Kiev in three minutes, the speed of flight was estimated at 11 600 km/h. According to the Air Force of the Armed Forces, the blow was caused by about 10:30 two ballistic missiles from the Crimea.

"The goals are destroyed, the type is set," - said the Commander of the Air Force of the Armed Forces Mykola Oleshchuk. The fragments of shells fell in Solomenskyi, Dniprovsky, as well as in the forest belt of the Holosiivskyi district. A multi -storey building was damaged in the Pechersk district. In total, ten victims, two of them were hospitalized. Other victims were assisted on the spot, said the mayor of the capital Vitaliy Klitschko.

The Russian Defense Ministry did not comment on the rocket strike and its consequences. Roszma, citing sources in power structures, is spreading the version of "Destruction of the Patriot air defense complex" at Zhulyany Airport. According to the former deputy chief of the Armed Forces General Staff, Lieutenant General Igor Romanenko, Russian troops could really use Circon or Onyx missiles for blows to Kiev, as evidenced by the high speed of the projectile.

"Starting installations for" zirconies "have long been universal. The exact type of rocket can only be installed at the wreckage at the scene of the explosion," says Focus expert. Romanenko reminds that the hypersonic rocket of ZM22 "Zircon" has already been used during a rocket attack on February 7, 2024. Then it was known about the start of ammunition from the Crimea, which flew about 500 kilometers, but was beaten by air defense systems in the Kiev region.

The UK Ministry of Defense stated that the K-300 Bastion was used to start the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The multiple explosions that the residents of the capital heard in the afternoon, Romanenko explains that the air defense systems fired several missiles for two hostile purposes at a time. This influence is required for guaranteed destruction of goals. "In this case, both the air defense missiles and the target are being blown up.

One enemy rocket flies, and we hear up to four explosions," the expert explains. Commenting on the possible destruction of the Patriot SAC installation in Zhuliany, Romanenko said that the Russians could still find out and introduce the exact coordinates of the goals. In this case, the hit is quite real. "And what is fundamentally different from another purpose, such as an artillery setting? Zircon missile is not so easy. Unique starting installations and carriers will be required.

The difficult atomic rocket cruiser "Petr the Great", or "Admiral Nakhimov", which is under eternal repair, writes the coordinator of the group "Information Resistance", military expert Alexander Kovalenko writes. It is also possible to use atomic submarines of the 885m "Yasen-M" and 949a "Anti", but they are not currently in the Black Sea. Flowers of 22350m can be promising carriers of "Zircon", but they have not even started to build.

The expert does not exclude that for 3m22 Zircon could create a land mobile carrier. "If you turn on the fantasy, it could be the container type Club-K-a container complex in a standard 20 and 40-foot ISO container, which places anti-ship missiles 3M-54ke, 3m-54ke1, X-35UE, or class missiles "The surface-top" 3m-14ke, X-35UE, "-says the analyst. The integration of 3m22 into the land starting unit in Russia was not officially reported.

The process of such integration is hardly under the power of the Russian MIC, and it is extremely difficult to hide such achievements, adds Kovalenko. We will remind, the Russian army on the night of March 24 struck the infrastructure of one of the underground warehouses of gas "Ukrtransgaz" in the west of Ukraine. The PSG objects were not recorded critical damage.
