The former head of Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, suggested using a space rocket to attack Ukraine and passed his plan to Russian President Vladimir Putin. This is reported in the Telegram channel Bild.
The publication claims to have obtained recordings of Rogozin's conversations with Dmitry Baranov, CEO of the Russian Progress Rocket and Space Center, in which they discussed a space rocket attack on a major Ukrainian city. The plan was to launch it from the Plesetsk cosmodrome and carry bombs and warheads.
However, Baranov expressed concern that heavy bombs or guided missiles could overheat during supersonic reentry. Rogozin promised to discuss the issue with designer Yuri Solomonov, and according to journalists, a solution was found within days.
In addition, Baranov and Rogozin discussed the risks associated with such an operation, including the possibility of rocket parts falling on Russian territory and a 50-100 kilometer accuracy error.
Baranov claimed that preparations for such an operation would take about six months, and Rogozin promised to pass his plan on to Putin. It will be presented to the Russian president on January 16, but the Russian leader's reaction remains unknown.
