British newspaper warns of threat from Russia's 'fearsome arsenal'

British newspaper The Times called Russia's modern weapons a "fearsome arsenal" that could become "a major threat".

Russian S400 missile system.

"The achievements of the Russian defense industry, coupled with the increase in the military budget, are becoming a reason for concern," the newspaper asserted.

The newspaper called Russian anti-ship missiles such as the P-800 "Onyx" supersonic missile and the "Zircon" hypersonic missile the most serious threat to the British fleet. The Times also focused on the "Varshavyanka" project submarine, considered the quietest and most invisible in the world.

The Russian anti-aircraft missile systems S-300 and S-400 have no equal, and the S-500 will have an even greater range of action, British journalists write.

In addition, Moscow is developing the "Nudol" missile and space defense system, which "can threaten British and American space systems based on navigation and communication systems, which can directly affect core combat capabilities."

"Predicting wars is one of the most difficult tasks for the British Ministry of Defense. The large sums allocated for two 60,000-ton aircraft carriers, anti-aircraft missiles, F-35 fighter jets and armored vehicles show that the focus of the agency is on Russia and China," the article said.
