Russia successfully test-fired Tsirkon also named Zircon hypersonic cruise missile in the Arctic, the country's Defence Ministry has announced.
On 26 Nov, the frigate Admiral Gorshkov in the White Sea fired a Tsirkon hypersonic cruise missile.

Xinhua News Agency or New China News Agency, quoted the Ministry as saying it reportedly hit a naval target 450 km or 280 miles away in the Barents Sea at a speed of over 8 Mach.

The outlet also reported that the same frigate test-fired the Tsirkon missile for the first time, striking a ground target over 500 km or 310 miles.
It further added last month, the warship deployed in the White Sea destroyed a naval target in the Barents Sea with a Tsirkon missile.

The interesting point to note is that all these details are published in the Chinese media out, ideally, China should have nothing to do with this.

So, there is obviously more than what meets the eyes.

In this video Defense Updates analyzes how Russian President Putin has scuttled Chinese premier Xi Jinping’s North Sea Route ambitions with Zircon hypersonic missile?
