Putin’s new ‘Flying Chernobyl’ mega missile Burevestnik is a nuclear-powered FLOP

Experts have scoffed at Vladimir Putin’s “uniquely stupid” new missile – insisting it would be worse than useless if it ever saw action.

The Russian tyrant announced with much fanfare the successful test of his nuclear-powered super missile, dubbed “Flying Chernobyl“, which he tried to sell as a game changer.

But it’s been recognised as another pathetic attempt to “scare” the West – and the only reaction from the British and American armies will be to “roll on the floor laughing”, experts insisted.

The nuclear-powered cruise missile, officially the 9M730 Burevestnik, is said to have a range of 12,500miles, thanks to its nuclear-powered engine.

It’s been in testing since 2016 and has suffered a series of embarrassing failures – including when it blew up five scientists and spewed radiation inside Russia.
