Imagine a missile with a split personality. One minute it is a long-range sniper, the next it is a double-barreled shotgun. That is essentially what Russia's recent upgrade to its Kh-101 air-launched cruise missile has done. This upgrade adds a second warhead, potentially doubling its impact on a single target. But there is a catch: to fit it in, the missile's travel range has been significantly reduced.
While the headlines might scream about "double the threat," the reality is more nuanced. Let's delve into the details of this revamped weapon and see what it means for the future of warfare. Stay tuned!
