Kremlin propagandists from the TASS agency, citing “two sources in the military-industrial complex,” wrote that the Russian Federation is allegedly developing a medium-range ballistic missile designed to strike aircraft carrier groups of the US Navy under the code name “Borshchevyk”. And that the racist “Borshchevyk” will seem to be similar to the corresponding Chinese ballistic missiles under the DF-21 and DF-26 indexes, writes Naval News.
If such news had been heard in pre-war times, such data could be taken into account, assuming that the Kremlin wants to get a “high-tech” replacement for anti-ship cruise missiles of the Kh-22 and Kh-32 types, launched from strategic bombers of the Tu-22M3 type.
But after 4 months of total war, which showed the complete fiasco of the Russian defense industry, the news of “Hogweed” looks only like a pretext for trolling the enemy. And as a reason to assume – in the absence of real achievements, the Putin regime is preparing to show a new propaganda “cartoon” about a non-existent “no analogue” missile.
In turn, if the ruscists had to invent another non-existent weapon, we can make the following assumption here – neither China nor North Korea began to share their missiles with the Russian Federation.
