PRESIDENT Joe Biden confirmed Russia launched a “hypersonlic missile” at Ukraine.
Biden said this was done in part due to the strength of Ukrainian defenses.
The missile is a consequential weapon, Biden said, but with the same warhead on it as any other launched missile.
It doesn’t make that much difference except it’s almost impossible to stop it.
“They’re wreaking havoc on the Russian military, whether it’s their tanks or their helicopters or their aircraft,” Biden said, according to the Daily Mail.
The missiles are believed to fly at ten times the speed of sound, and be able to evade air defenses.
