Tegnapi Putyin az Oreshnikről;
Finally, the latest hypersonic strike system, Oreshnik, in its non-nuclear configuration. We
had to test it under combat conditions, as I just said – had to, as a response to the Western weapon strikes on the Bryansk and Kursk regions involving ATACMS and Storm Shadow missiles.
The Oreshnik system, of course, has no equivalents in the world, and I doubt we will see anything comparable in the foreseeable future. Allow me to briefly explain its operation, as requested.
The system deploys dozens of homing warheads that strike the target at a velocity of Mach 10, equivalent to approximately three kilometres per second. The temperature of the impact elements reaches 4,000 degrees Celsius – nearing the surface temperature of the sun, which is around 5,500–6,000 degrees. Consequently, everything within the explosion’s epicentre is reduced to fractions, elementary particles, essentially turning to dust. The missile is capable of destroying even heavily fortified structures and those located at significant depths...

Oreshnik is not classified as a weapon of mass destruction. This distinction is due to two key factors: first, as confirmed in the November 21 test,
the system demonstrates exceptional precision; second, and most importantly, it operates without a nuclear warhead, meaning no radioactive contamination follows its use.

A 3km/s sebesség, a nagy pontosság, számomra megerősít a korábban általam vázoltakra.
Egyedül a "
homing warheads" szó kombináció okoz fejtörést, mert egyszerre jelenthet „egy cél felé haladni” (passzívan) vagy „célhoz vezetni”. (Aktívan) Ráadásul ez warheads többes szám vagyis nem egyértelmű, hogy irányítható harci részekről van-e szó..
