Hypersonic Missile Race: Russia’s Avangard, China’s DF-41, US' Trident — & India’s DRDO Breakthrough

They travel faster than sound. Some even at Mach 20. They can strike any point on the planet within minutes — and no known defence system can stop them. In this explosive breakdown, we take you inside the world’s fastest and most powerful missiles — Russia’s Avangard and Sarmat, China’s DF-41, the US Trident II D5 and Minuteman III — and reveal India’s imminent entry into the hypersonic elite. From nuclear payloads to manoeuvrability and range, these weapons define modern deterrence and domination. And with India’s DRDO now testing indigenous hypersonic tech, the global arms race just got a new player. #HypersonicMissile #Avangard #DF41 #TridentII #Sarmat #MissileTechnology #IndiaDefence #DRDO #RussiaMissile #ChinaMissile #USAWeapons #NuclearMissile #Mach20 #Geopolitics #MilitaryPower #DefenceExplained #MissileRace #StrategicWeapons #ICBM #WorldMilitaryPower Also Read India’s S-400 vs Pakistan’s HQ-9P: Who Commands the Skies Now? :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-s-400-vs-pakistan-s-hq-9p-who-commands-the-skies-now-4147915.html?ref=DMDesc Missile Strike Near Ben Gurion Airport Leads To Air India Flight Rerouting :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/missile-strike-near-ben-gurion-airport-leads-to-air-india-flight-rerouting-4143153.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~HT.408~GR.125~

S-400 EXPOSED? Russia’s S-400 SYSTEM WRECKED by Low-Flying DRONES |  Putin SILENT After The Attack [Video]

S-400 EXPOSED? Russia’s S-400 SYSTEM WRECKED by Low-Flying DRONES | Putin SILENT After The Attack

Russia’s highly-touted S-400 air defense system is under intense scrutiny after a massive Ukrainian drone strike reportedly destroyed critical assets, including Russian bombers. On June 1, 2025, over 117 low-flying drones bypassed radar detection and targeted key military sites. Despite its reputation, the S-400 struggled to intercept these cheap, agile UAVs. Ukraine’s coordinated swarm attacks, use of jammers, decoys, and anti-radar missiles highlight growing vulnerabilities in legacy defense systems like the S-400—designed for jets and missiles, not modern drone warfare. #Ukraine #Russia #S400 #DroneStrike #AirDefense #UAV #DroneWarfare #UkraineWar #S400Failure #MilitaryNews #Zelensky #DefenseNews #BreakingNews #RussiaUkraineWar #Drones #ATACMS #HIMARS #MissileDefense #MilitaryTech #Kremlin #RussiaMilitary #GeoPolitics #UkrainianDrones #DroneSwarm #WarUpdate #Putin #NATO #ModernWarfare #RussianBombers #BattlefieldInnovation #117Drones ~ED.102~HT.336~

NUCLEAR STOCKPILE: Russia Surpasses U.S in Warheads | Israel & N. Korea with Undeclared SECRET Nukes

With World War 3 fears looming and nuclear tensions rising, just 9 nations possess nuclear weapons—led by Russia (5,449) and the U.S. (5,277). China, India, Pakistan, and others follow far behind. While 7 countries have officially declared their arsenals, Israel and North Korea remain ambiguous. Over 12,000 nuclear warheads exist today, a stark drop from Cold War highs, yet each bomb holds devastating potential. As deterrence theory dominates global policy, growing voices now demand complete nuclear disarmament to save humanity. #NuclearWeapons #WorldWar3 #NuclearTensions #Russia #USA #China #India #Israel #NorthKorea #Pakistan #France #UK #DeNuclearisation #MutuallyAssuredDestruction #NuclearArmsRace #Hiroshima #Nagasaki #AtomicThreat #GlobalSecurity #NukeStats #NuclearPower #NuclearPolicy #ArmsControl #NuclearFacts #NuclearStates #Geopolitics #WW3Alert #ColdWarLegacy #NuclearWarheads #FASData #HumanSurvival #PeaceNotWar Also Read US Intelligence Assessed Iran Isn’t Building Nukes; Trump Disagreed With Finding :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-experts-asserted-that-iran-is-not-making-nukes-trump-rejected-their-observation-4184805.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Supported Israel's Plan To Kill Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei: US Officials :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-supported-israels-plan-to-kill-iran-supreme-leader-ayatollah-ali-khamenei-us-offici-4182653.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Defence Minister Says 'Tehran Will Burn' If... :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israels-defence-minister-says-tehran-will-burn-if-4181667.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~

Bhutto FACT-CHECKED at UN Over 'Muslim Vilification' Lie | Journalist EXPOSES Anti-India Claim

Pakistan's Bilawal Bhutto Zardari faced an awkward moment at a UN press briefing after a journalist fact-checked his claim that India was "demonising Muslims" following the Pahalgam terror attack. Bhutto alleged India was politicising the tragedy to vilify Muslims, but the journalist countered with firsthand experience, highlighting Muslim officers leading Indian Army briefings. Bhutto, visibly unsettled, admitted, "You're absolutely right." The episode casts doubt on Pakistan’s narrative as Bhutto leads a diplomatic team to counter India’s global stance post-Operation Sindoor. #BilawalBhutto #UNPressBriefing #IndiaPakistan #OperationSindoor #FactCheck #PahalgamAttack #IndianArmy #PakClaims #IndianMuslims #ColSofiyaQureshi #VyomikaSingh #KashmirIssue #Terrorism #IslamabadDiplomacy #UNNews #GlobalPolitics #PakNarrative #IndiaDefense #IndianMuslimOfficers #PakistanUN #JournalistFactCheck #SouthAsiaNews #BustedAtUN #BhuttoEmbarrassed #KashmirTensions #IndiaPakistanTensions #PPP #BilawalAtUN #BreakingNews #IndiaNarrative #TruthAtUN Also Read Bilawal Bhutto Admits UN Hurdles On Kashmir As Pakistan, India Launch Parallel Diplomacy In US :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/bilawal-bhutto-admits-un-hurdles-on-kashmir-as-pakistan-india-launch-parallel-diplomacy-in-us-4171933.html?ref=DMDesc Team Shashi Tharoor, Bilawal Bhutto To Jostle In US This Week As India And Pakistan Step Up Diplomatic Push :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/team-shashi-tharoor-bilawal-bhutto-to-jostle-in-us-this-week-as-india-and-pakistan-step-up-diplomat-4170769.html?ref=DMDesc United Nations Under-Secretary-General For Peace Operations Praises India :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/united-nations-under-secretary-general-for-peace-operations-praises-india-4168359.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.346~HT.408~GR.125~
