For the first time, a long-range modification of the Neptune cruise missile, known as the Long Neptune, was officially shown. It is capable of hitting targets at a distance of up to 1,000 kilometers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first footage of the Ukrainian missile was shown<\/a> on the state portal “Weapons”,<\/p>\n

In the recording, the “Long Neptune” is demonstrated along with other samples of Ukrainian weapons, although it is not directly mentioned in the video.<\/p>\n

As Defense Express notes<\/a> , the Long Neptune can be recognized by its distinctive X-shaped wings that fold.<\/p>\n

However, the video itself is not of the newest “Long Neptune”, but of a test of a regular “Neptune” from a few years ago.<\/p>\n

The new rocket is likely to be over 6 meters long without the booster. This is one and a half meters longer than the first version of Neptune. The hull has also been increased in diameter to 50 cm.<\/p>\n

The official characteristics of the missile have not yet been disclosed. It is known that it is designed to destroy ground targets.<\/p>\n

Recall that on January 10, a Ukrainian Neptune missile hit a warehouse storing ammunition and reconnaissance drones near the village of Chaltyr in the Rostov region<\/a> .<\/p>\n

By the way, in 2024, the Defense Forces used the Neptune cruise missile six times in a modification<\/a> to destroy logistics links and warehouses of Russian drones.<\/p>\n
