Russia successfully test-launched its Zircon also known as Tsirkon hypersonic cruise missile from the Project 22350 Admiral Gorshkov warship.
The test took place on 19 July 2021.

Viewers may note that the warship has 16 UKSK VLS (Vertical Launch System) cells , each of which can accommodate a single Zircon missile.

The Russian defense ministry in a statement said that the missile was fired from the Admiral Gorshkov frigate in the White Sea.
It was added that it struck a ground target located on the coast of the Barents Sea, more than 350 kilometers or 217 miles away, with the missile traveling at 7 times the speed of sound.

The ministry said that “the tactical and technical characteristics of the Tsirkon missile were confirmed during the tests.”

Russian President Vladimir Putin has stated that Zircon was “part of a new generation of missile systems without equal in the world.”
