The Oreshnik hypersonic missile is a new Russian intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) that has been developed and operationalized in the 2020s and used in combat in the Russo-Ukrainian War. The missile travels at hypersonic speeds over Mach 10 (more than ten times the speed of sound), making it extremely fast and hard to intercept.
As an intermediate-range system, it can potentially strike targets hundreds to thousands of kilometers away, likely covering much of Europe and nearby regions depending on deployment location.
The Oreshnik represents a significant strategic enhancement of Russia’s long-range strike capabilities. Its speed, range, and potential nuclear capability make it a powerful deterrent and strategic weapon in modern conflicts, raising concerns among NATO and European defense planners.
