Putin’s “Dust Bomb” Pitch: A Super Missile That Turns Cities into Crumbs
Russian president Vladimir Putin’s latest statement has stirred up a bit of a wow‑moment. He’s unveiling a new missile—nicknamed the Oreshnik—that he claims can pulverize an entire area into dust as if it were a ghost town. According to him, this is not a simple bomb; it’s a throwback to the hard‑edge of a nuclear blast (and trust me, it’s faster than any jet you’ve ever seen).
Why It’s All About the Speed
- 10 Mach! That’s roughly 3 km/h—faster than a cheetah on a rocket boost.
- The explosion’s core heats up to a scorching 4,000 °C, which is close to the temperature a surface of a burning star.
- Picture it: the front of a city goes up in a puff of dust that seems to scatter everything down to the tiniest particles.
The Big Picture
Putin says there’s “no other weapon out there” that can match this level of devastation. In his words, everything right in the eye of the blast will be shattered into microscopic stuff—just a neat, flat, almost “dust‑like” finicky?
Why This Matters
- It’s a new kicker in the arsenal—meaning potential enemies might have to rethink their next move.
- Talks of “dust” may signal a shift from raw firepower to a focus on “washing” away people’s echo.
- All of this, combined with the sonic speed, implies a strike that’s faster and more destructive than any single creature has ever seen.
In a nutshell
So, if you’re trying to line up defenses: prepare for a laser‑imposed, 4,000 °C dust‑storm that burns a circle of 3 km radius. Take care—these machines are nothing less than a parable of fiery doom.

Russia’s New Missile Riddle: The “Oreshnik” Strikes Back
Picture this: a missile that can crush even the most heavily fortified, deep‑underground sites—so powerful you’ll swear it’s like a nuclear hit, except, hey, it’s not actually nuclear.
What Putin’s Got up His Sleeve
“We have ready‑to‑fire units of this kind,” Russian President Vladimir Putin told reporters. “And we’ll keep them coming until the Western long‑range missiles that have been hitting our soil all the way back are no longer an option.”
He added that the next wave of tests will really test the weapon’s abilities, just like the last demonstration over Russia on November 21.
The Western Response
Behind this high‑tech drama, the United States released a video showcasing how a Trident missile works. It’s part of a U.S. arsenal that boasts at least 280 in service—a real missile shower!
Meanwhile, the Ukrainian army pulled out its “high‑precision” foreign long‑range weapons.
Why It Matters
- Western support means a direct hand in the conflict—no more “behind the scenes” passing.
- Russia’s missile production is said to be ten times the total output of all NATO countries combined.
- Next year, that number is projected to climb by another 25–30 %
- The Kyiv leadership is “begning” from Western-fueled equipment, tossing in Kalibr, Dagger, and Zircon—missile marvels that have no direct competitors.
- These powerhouses were among the arsenal deployed during the last two days as a counter to Russia’s ATACMS assaults.
Let’s Wrap It Up
As tensions flare, the world watches to see whether these new weapons will keep the conflict from reaching a catastrophic crescendo—or somehow, in a twist of irony, stop it entirely. Either way, the sky is lower than ever.
