Putin, ‘Sarmat range can reach 35,000 km and can penetrate all existing and future defense systems’

12 Maggio 2026

(Adnkronos) – The Sarmat RS-28, successfully tested today and to be deployed by the end of the year, “can be used both as a ballistic missile and as a suborbital trajectory missile, which allows it to reach a maximum range of 35,000 km, also doubling its precision and its ability to penetrate all existing and future missile defense systems,” the Russian President stated. “It is the most powerful system in the world, of equal power to the Voyevoda missile system,” Putin added. The warheads it can be armed with have four times the power of any other equivalent Western system.
