      Hate to say it but “The Economist” is a shit name for a long range missile. Ukraine usually chooses better names.

      They should hold a missile naming contest, $1 per vote. I suggest “thoughts and prayers”

    3. Ukraine – seeing Trump as not helping is hedging it’s bets. Reverse engineering US missiles… beautiful.

      TL;DR: It’s a short-range missile with a speed of 400 km/h. Since it’s a pulse jet it will be loud as balls. It’s main benefits is likely that’s it’s going to be cheap and simple to mass produce.
