According to reporters at the German outlet Bild, NATO is deeply concerned about Russia’s newest missile, «Burevestnik». Citing a source, the authors say Russia is already prepared to deploy the system. They also relay the assessment that Russia’s nuclear arsenal modernization has been completed, leaving Moscow with several new classes of weapons, including submarines, cruise missiles, and intermediate-range missiles.

The publication summarizes NATO experts’ estimates: the missile is believed to reach speeds above 900 km/h with a flight range of roughly 14,000 kilometers. It is described as highly maneuverable, launchable from mobile platforms, and capable of remaining «in orbit» for extended periods before striking a target.

Earlier, President Vladimir Putin said Russia can take pride in the work of the scientists, designers, engineers, and workers involved in «Burevestnik». He added that the system’s nuclear power unit is a thousand times smaller than a submarine reactor while delivering comparable output.
