"The work on the project" Zimovik "is frozen, because now all efforts of the defense are aimed at improving the entire missile weapon, which is already flying," - said the unnamed interlocutor. Defense Express also noted that once all efforts have been thrown to improve existing developments, it can also mean freezing of other projects. They may lack resources and details because of Western sanctions. However, the focus of forces on several projects is threatening to Ukraine.
The "coil" project is an anti -ship rocket, which was first publicly stated in July 2022. The Russian Federation claims that the complex should be like Chinese DF-21D and DF-26-these are ballistic solid fuel missiles with a radius of up to 1500 and 5000 km, respectively. Haming heads can hit ships and aircraft carriers. The combat part can be nuclear.
Experts also do not rule out that under the guise of an anti -ship missile, Moscow could develop a medium -range missile, which restricted the weapons distribution agreement. However, in 2019, the Russian Federation left the treaty, so now nothing stops. Recall that on September 22, the PCS of the Russian Federation received a modernized A-50U aircraft, which is now able to detect more goals. On September 17, the Russian Federation announced the receipt of new winged X-BD missiles.
