> Ukraine’s military intelligence agency, HUR, said Russia’s 3M22 Zircon missile performs below the capabilities claimed by the Kremlin. It assessed the missile’s maximum recorded speed at Mach 6.8, its range at 1,000 kilometers and its warhead at 120 kilograms, describing it as a solid-fuel ballistic missile on a quasi-ballistic trajectory rather than a hypersonic cruise missile. HUR also said Russia produced 33 Zircons in the first seven months of the year.
