The new success of the development of Russian high-tech weapons: disguised quad launcher of cruise missiles "Turquoise" (export name - "Club-K")
The article yesterday in the British The Daily Telegraph (retold today in Russian Observer and on Utro.Ru , for example) tells the astonished world about the possibility of buying just ten million pounds sterling ( fifteen megabyxes) and hiding it in the ordinary (standard, innocent-looking) ) railway container launcher capable at the right time (on a ship, on a railway platform, on an auto-tractor) to get into a combat position and shoot out (one after the other) as many asfour cruise missiles capable of hitting ground-based (and o even more interesting, flooded) targets at a distance of up to three hundred kilometers. Of particular interest is the anti-ship version of the missile (3M54E1), carrying a four-centner penetrating high-explosive warhead and capable of hitting aircraft carriers. The key advantage of this rocket is its ability to suddenly drop at the prefinal segment of the flight, drop the main engine - and then sharply accelerate to a speed exceeding the speed of sound three times , overcoming standard means of air defense.
The Daily Telegraph provides only a screenshot of the Turquoise advertising video on YouTube, and I will bring it all, borrowing from the blog of Vladimir Torah :

Before you - the fascinating history of a peaceful banana republic, which carried out the entire ominous invasion army with three railway containers. As you can see, in the second part of the commercial you can easily learn twice pirated music: firstly, it is hardly licensed, and secondly, it is from the well-known movie about pirates. Interesting, isn't it?
The Novator design office this week shows the Turquoise at an exhibition in Malaysia, advertising it as a means of defense against possible shtatovskoy aggression. I wish them success.
