More than 95 days have passed since the Russo-Ukraine war, and even after so much time, no clear winner has emerged. Western countries are tightening sanctions to surround Russia on the economic front. However, Russia is also continuously increasing its military power through the testing of new missiles.

 

Now Russia has completed the testing of its new hypersonic Zircon cruise missile. It will be deployed on warships of the North Fleet by the end of the year. According to the news agency TASS, the Russian warship Admiral Golovkos will be the first warship on which it will be deployed.
