The Telegraph: Putin’s overhyped hypersonics can be beaten. They do not make warships obsolete
Russian hypersonic missiles, touted as "super weapons," are proving less effective than claimed. Recent reports indicate that Ukraine intercepted 140 out of 210 missiles, achieving a 66% overall kill probability and 88% against hypersonics. This marks a significant improvement in Ukraine's defense capabilities.
Despite their high speeds, both the Kinzhal and Zircon missiles become vulnerable as they descend, slowing down and losing effectiveness against interceptors. The challenges of real-time targeting and communication further hinder their accuracy, especially against moving targets at sea.
