Putin has a "Hazel" switch and is ready to whack the West with it.
When the Russian president makes one of these televised addresses from his office, you know things are serious. Tonight, he confirmed that what hit Dnepropetrovsk was "Oreshnik" (Hazel), an entirely new, hypersonic, mid-range missile. Last night's strike was non-nuclear, but he implied the missile is capable of carrying atomics as well.
He also said that Russia will not hesitate to use it in response to any further attacks with Western tech, but will give people at the target a warning so they can evacuate first, because the Mach 10 missile cannot be intercepted by any defenses.
At this point anyone in the GAE pushing their luck is clearly deranged. But something tells me they will double down, because that's who they are.
