flag A Russian Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile exploded during a test on November 28, 2025, at the Yasny base, marking the second failure within a year. flag The missile veered off course, caught fire, and disintegrated, creating a large mushroom cloud and a 70-meter crater. flag The test, aimed at the Kura range in Kamchatka, was part of Russia’s effort to deploy the new heavy ICBM to replace older systems. flag Experts confirm the Sarmat is the likely missile involved, dismissing the older Voyevoda. flag The failure undermines Russia’s 2025 deployment plans and raises concerns about the reliability of its nuclear modernization. flag A separate hypersonic missile test on November 30 also failed, with a UR-100N missile crashing shortly after launch due to an engine malfunction. flag The incidents highlight ongoing technical challenges in Russia’s defense industry.
