Russia caught faking video of a hypersonic missile strike.

The video of the claimed hypersonic missile strike by Russia on an ammunition depot in Western Ukraine:

You can see that the location Russia claimed it hit in Western Ukraine was actually a farm in Eastern Ukraine hit earlier in the war by comparing the satellite photo with the Russian video.

I’ve seen videos of Russian aircraft with the aircraft numbers backwards since the film was doctored. Based on their defense budget, I doubt Russia has any hypersonic missiles.

Russia caught faking video of a hypersonic missile strike.

Impossible!

I have it on good authority from several FReepers that only the war mongering decadent West is faking photos & videos, to smear that great Christian leader of Russia, Vlad The Great!

If that was munition and missile storage...
Where are the secondary explosions???

Look! Squirrel!

Remember all the hype about China’s ultrasonic weapon a month or three ago.

Delta 7 hardest hit.

Why use a hypersonic missile on a stationary target?

[dynachrome]

We’ll know it’s real when it shows up in “Call of Duty”/s

[ThunderSleeps]

Given that Ukraine has what, virtually no missile defense capabilities one has to ask, why? Why use a relatively new hypersonic missile designed to evade missile defense technologies? The answer is probably as both an operational test and demonstration to potential adversaries (or purchasers).

That would mesh well with the idea of using it on a target in the eastern part of Ukraine where they could go retrieve critical technology bits if for some reason it failed to detonate or failed to reach its target.

US officials confirmed to CNN that Russia launched hypersonic missiles against Ukraine last week, the first known use of such missiles in combat

A hit by any other name is still a hit.

What’s that flash that shows up on some replays, but not all, at the bottom of the image, about 1/3 over from the left. And why is it only visible sometimes?

Senior US official confirms Russia did fire more than one hypersonic missile Saturday based on speeds observed but US officials do not view this as an escalation toward possible use of nuclear weapons. Perhaps could be indication Putin is running out of precision guided missiles.
