英国天空新闻台称，2024年11月21日"榛树"首战亮相，击中位于乌克兰中部一家航空工厂，引发了长达 3个小时的爆炸。 前不久"榛树"二度出鞘，又将乌西部另一家航空修理厂列为打击目标，使后者的大量设备、仓库损毁严 重。 俄国防部表示，该厂负责维修美制F-16战机和制造军用无人机，袭击导致其生产陷入瘫痪。 美联社援引五角大楼的说法称，"榛树"以RS-26洲际导弹为基础研制，战斗部核常兼备，射程可达5500 公里，能覆盖欧洲大部分地区。 据悉，此类武器原本为《中导条约》禁止，但因2019年美国单方面毁约，俄罗斯遂于2020年左右启 动"榛树"研发工作，历经5次试射，2024年开始批量列装。 德国之声电台网站还指出，为避免被误解成核打击，俄方发射中程导弹前，通常会事先告知北约。但即 便得到预警，乌克兰依然防不胜防。 加拿大广播公司称，乌军配备的美制"爱国者"防空系统，曾拦截速度5马赫的"匕首"空射高超音速导 弹，而两轮实战结果表明，其面对"榛树"却无计可施。 印度"防务新闻"认为，号称可在大气层外拦截作战的以色列"箭-3"反导系统，遇到"榛树"恐怕也难以招 架。 中新网1月20日电(钟新军)近日，俄罗斯在实战中第二 ...
