Ukraine War, Russia’s Threat: We Will Destroy US Tanks

The Russian army will destroy American M1 Abrams tanks, as well as other military equipment of NATO countries: guarantees the Russian ambassador in Washington, Anatoly Antonov. “There is no doubt that if it is decided to transfer the M1 Abrams to Kiev, American tanks will be destroyed by our military in the same way that all other NATO military equipment is destroyed. The information was released by the Russian news agency Tass. The delivery of Abrams and Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine will bring “more suffering” to the country and “greater tensions on the European continent”, said Russian President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman. “Unfortunately, more NATO weapons bring more suffering to Ukrainians. And they will also bring more tension to the continent. But that cannot stop Russia from achieving its goals,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told CNN.

Meanwhile, the Russian frigate Admiral Gorshkov, which is conducting exercises in the Atlantic Ocean, conducted an exercise on the use of hypersonic missile weapons using computer simulation. The announcement was made by the Ministry of Defense of Russia. “The crew of the frigate Almirante Gorshkov, which operates in the western part of the Atlantic Ocean, trained in the use of a hypersonic missile weapon by the computer modeling method,” explained the ministry. As the West prepares to send tanks into Ukraine, the Moscow government is reacting by flexing its muscles. The Zircons are new generation missiles, which according to Moscow travel at nine times the speed of sound, with a range of over 1,000 km. “Consistent with the training environment, the frigate Admiral Gorshkov practiced preparations for an attack with a hypersonic Zircon missile on a maritime target that mimicked a fictitious enemy ship at a range of more than 900 kilometers.”
