South Africa won't be a test site for its 'unstoppable' new missile, Russia says | Business Insider

Gladkiy was speaking at a media event after in-person planning and coordination around Exercise Mosi II, between Russia – which is taking an increasingly aggressive stance towards countries that oppose its invasion of Ukraine – and China and South Africa, which maintain that they are neutral on the war.

The Tass report appeared to be an attempt to test the waters before such a launch, though it is not clear whether it was to gauge how the South African government would respond, to reconfirm to Nato countries that Admiral Gorshkov would be skirting Europe armed with the weapon, or for some other propaganda purpose.

Testing the Zircon in South Africa would have allowed South Africa, and to a lesser extent China, to vouch for the capabilities of a weapon Russian President Vladimir Putin has praised for its invincibility, and its ability to guarantee Russian freedom.SA is about to be in the middle of a Russian propaganda coup around an 'unstoppable' weapon

is because some SA criminal has already snuck on board and stolen it? I mean guns in a Police station aint safe how can a missile on a russian canoe docked in a sa harbour be any safer
