Before the Putin -Trump’s summit around Ukraine .. Russia is testing the nuclear missile “Borifestynic” which “invincible”
Russia is preparing to test a weapon in the far north, with the archipelago of Novaya, a colleague, described by Moscow as “invincible.” It comes to the cross -border nuclear missile.
The Arab Defense website – August 16, 2025: The Russian “Burevestnik”, a renewed media attention, raises a renewed media attention, amid speculation of new experiences. Several media reports have indicated that Russia may recently implement new tests for the missile, while a Chinese military expert said, on Tuesday, August 12, that this unique weapon, the first of its kind in the world, may be in a stage of experiments aimed at addressing previous technical challenges, at a time when it constitutes a deterrent tool within the context of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, pointing out that the timing of this coincides with the scheduled talks soon in Alaska.
Putin, who knows the timing of his messages well, chose to precede the Alaska summit with Donald Trump with a strategic scene. The summit, which is supposed to discuss the fate of Ukraine and the security of Europe, may be greeted by the shadow of the Russian nuclear weapon.
Satellite images revealed an unprecedented activity on the Bangovo site, where Russian forces are preparing soldiers, equipment, ships and aircraft, for a possible nuclear test. Analysts at the Middle Middle Institute for International Studies and the CNE Research and Analysis Institute confirmed that the test may take place this week, bringing the resonance of his announcement to Washington before Putin’s arrival in Alaska.
The Russian media calls on Borifstnik names such as “Star Storm”, “Storm Bees” and “Black Lightning Storm”. The missile is described as an infinite range and a non -predictable flying path. However, experts warn of the possibility of radiation scattered along its path due to its nuclear -powered engine, stressing that its ability to change the strength of power may be less than what Moscow promotes.
Since Trump announced the “golden dome” in January, Putin has been seeking a large strategic pressure card. With Russia’s withdrawal from the mid -range missile treaty, a new arms race appears to restore the clock to the Cold War days.
Technically, Chinese experts believe that Borifstnic is a unique weapon. Chinese military expert Song Chung Bing said: “Unlike traditional winged fuel missiles, Borifstnic uses nuclear energy, which gives him almost infinite flying. Russia has become the first country to develop nuclear -powered nuclear missiles, and this success may change the balance of power in the global strategic nuclear capabilities,” said Chinese military expert Song Chung Bing.
For their part, American and American deterrent analysts explained that large quantities of individuals and resources have reached the test facility in Noufaya Zamlia, with air radar planes and helicopters to support tests. Dr. Jeffrey Lewis, professor of the Institute of Advanced International Studies, pointed out that the moves come in conjunction with Trump’s willingness to meet Putin in Alaska, in a Russian attempt to defeat the “golden dome”.
From a political perspective, some analysts such as Mario, the Ukrainian influence, believes that this step constitutes a “slap in the face of Trump and Europe’s leaders”, while German politician Juergen Nodit believes that the Kremlin seeks to intimidate the Americans, targeting the use of blackmail and fear to force Trump and Europe to accept Russia’s conditions, including pressure on Ukraine to accept a costly and expensive shooting.
Borifesty specifications
“Borifestynic”, which means “stormy bias”, is a mobile missile fired from the ground and flying at a low altitude, capable of carrying a nuclear head, in addition to that it works with nuclear energy. Russian President Vladimir Putin revealed the project for the first time in March 2018, according to Reuters, which indicated in a report in October 2023 that Putin announced then his country’s success in testing the missile.
The missile nuclear payment system gives much longer than the traditional Turbovovan engines that restrict the fuel, as “Reuters” quoted a Russian military magazine specialized in 2021 that “Borifestynic” has a theoretical range of up to 20 thousand kilometers, allowing it to be stationed at any point inside Russia and hitting targets inside the United States. The magazine also indicated that the missile is shaved at a height of only 50 and 100 meters, which is much lower than traditional mobile missiles, which makes it difficult for air defense radars to monitor it.
Chinese military expert Song Chung Bing told the Global Times on Tuesday that “Borifesty” is a unique weapon that Russia has developed, as nuclear energy is used instead of chemical fuel, which gives it an unlimited extent. He added that the success of the development of this weapon may partially change the balance of the strategic nuclear power globally, explaining that nuclear weapons are usually carried on ballistic missiles or a chemical fuel mobile, and that Russia is the first country to develop a nuclear weapon that uses nuclear payment.
However, the Reuters report also indicated that the development of the missile’s nuclear payment unit represents a huge technical challenge, which witnessed several experimental failures. In 2019, at least five Russian nuclear experts were killed in an explosion and radiological leakage during an experiment in the White Sea, and American intelligence sources suggested that the experiment was part of a test for “Borifestynic”.
Song believes that the development of the nuclear payment system remains a major technical challenge, and new tests may aim to overcome these obstacles, but the actual combat performance of the missile – including its reliability and the associated radioactive risks – still needs to be verified.
On Monday, the Indian newspaper “Urazian Times” reported that speculation about nearby missile tests emerged days before expected talks between Trump and Putin in Alaska on the Ukraine file. It is not excluded – according to experts – that Russia “Borifestny” will take advantage of a deterrent tool against the United States and European countries in this file, in an attempt to show that its military arsenal still includes advanced systems that have not been used in the fighting yet, which may enhance its negotiating position, according to Song.
