Russia prepares response to American 'prompt global strike' initiative (Defense Ministry)

Works aimed at neutralization of the American "Prompt Global Strike" strategy are under way in Russia, Deputy Defense Minister Yuri Borisov said.

"A number of scientific research works as well as experimental and design works is under way in the context of possible threats related to launching works on global attack with the use of hypersonic technologies on the part of the United States," said Borisov.


"The supply of the "Yars" and "Bulava" missiles is in high gear, the works on a heavy missile are in full swing," Borisov noted. According to the Deputy Minister, the creation of a new heavy intercontinental ballistic missile is also in strict accordance with the schedule.

"The work is proceeding according to the plan," he stated.

  • The American military initiative "Prompt Global Strike" involves creation of offensive weapon systems that are able to deliver a blow with non-nuclear weapons at any point of the planet within an hour after the decision.
It is assumed that deeply modified intercontinental ballistic missiles, hypersonic cruise missiles and weapons based on new physical principles will be the main components of the initiative.
