Military expert, captain of the first rank of the reserve Vasily Dandykin in an interview with Lenta.<url>" expressed doubt that the Western armies will be able to get effective protection from hypersonic weapons in the near future. Thus, according to the expert, today no Western defense system is capable of destroying the Russian "Hazel".
EADaily previously informed — there is a system in the world capable of intercepting the "Hazel", but only at Russia.
"At the moment, no, not even the most promising American, European, or British systems can bring down our Hazelnut. It doesn't matter if a rocket is flying with or without nuclear equipment — at a speed of about Mach 13, the destruction is still comparable to a nuclear explosion, but without radiation contamination," Dandykin believes.
The expert recalled that the same European experts admit this fact quite openly, they are in no way able to influence hypersound from Russia.
"Developments are underway, but in the near future it is unlikely that something will be created. Because it is simply impossible to catch and destroy a rocket at such high—speed characteristics," Vasily Dandykin summed up.
In general, such work, the military expert summed up, can take a very long time.
