What’s the point of doing this again? They did this about year ago if I’m correct

They forget to load the warheads or something? Missile failed? What was the point of that?

Always eerie seeing these…

This is a missile that has 36 re entry vehicles. It’s unlikely to be able to be intercepted by any current missile defense system. Nothing you can do but hope you aren’t its target.
You don’t see explosions likely because they are exploding inside of structures. We will see how much damage was done by this in the next weeks. Last time they fucked up a big industrial plant that I think was making missiles or artillery shells, but it wasn’t catastrophic.
This is just signaling. This is a dangerous weapon because you can throw nukes in there. It’s not war changing outside of that use though

Every time they decide to use this, we take them even less seriously and they also have one less operational deterrent for themselves of the very few non-rusty soviet ones that they have lol

Im surprised they dont put conventional warheads on the ballistic missle. But hey I guess that’s good for Ukraine.

Not Lviv. Something in Lviv oblast.

It’s kinda pointless to launch these without payloads.. plus it’s not the russian way to hit something without payloads or using inert payloads. I’m not saying the have to be nuclear, they can be conventional explosives

For a few moments – early warning systems would have detected and tracked the system – reporting a MRBM launch – without knowing its warhead.
I wonder if Russians alerted the US to it. If not, then that would be an escalation to the previous firing when (as I recall) they gave proper warning.

If they are not even able to successfully use simple explosive payloads then you have to question how well they actually work. Seems like more Russian vaporware designed to scare people than actually be effective weapons.

Empty huh?
You did this before, Russia. Yawn. Try sending a human meat wave from the sky this time, mix it up a little.

Again with the empty warheads? How are they using these things and not using conventional payloads??
