Russia tests ASAT missile

(Worthy News) – Russia has conducted a flight test of a new anti-satellite missile in what Pentagon officials say is a step in advancing Moscow’s space warfare capabilities.

A U.S. defense official said American intelligence agencies monitored the missile test March 26 from Plesetsk, a test center located about 150 miles northwest of Moscow. The missile is designated the PL-19 and known as the Nudol.

The latest test was judged a success and is at least the sixth time the new missile was tested. Three earlier flight tests were gauged as successful. [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
