Putin humiliated, total fiasco

The tests of the Sarmat missile, dubbed Satan 2 on a training ground in Russian territory, ended in complete failure.

Heralded by Putin as the new "jewel" of Russian military high technology, Kremlin engineers are multiplying failures to test and launch the "famous" Sarmat missile, dubbed Satan 2 by NATO specialists. This is the 5th failure recorded for its tests.

With the Sarmat, Vladimir Putin wants to impress the world. The Sarmat is a missile that represents a new step in strengthening its nuclear deterrence capabilities.

The missile entered service in 2023, but since then, all attempts to test launch ready-to-use missiles have failed.

The test of the RS-28 Sarmat was a complete failure. The missile exploded in the silo, leaving a massive crater and destroying the test site.
