Putin's election speech Russia now has invincible missile

"Using grand video presentations. he showcased the new missile - saying it could not be stopped by the US shield in Europe and Asia - and an underwater drone.

In the televised speech to a joint sitting of both houses of parliament, he encouraged citizens to suggest names for the two systems.

He said the warhead was "a low-flying, difficult-to-spot cruise missile with a nuclear payload with a practically unlimited range and an unpredictable flight path, which can bypass lines of interception and is invincible in the face of all existing and future systems of both missile defence and air defence."

That's quite a claim. How can anyone possibly claim no future defence system will be able to stop it? Practically unlimited range? Take those two out and you've got an 80's vintage cruise missile. Electioneering blather I'd say.

I reckon that I saw a Su57 on a piece of news coverage of the Syrian situation, a few days ago.
I wonder what Trump will respond with?
