Ukraine has unveiled what appears to be an upgraded version of its homegrown Neptune cruise missile.
The long-range version of the R-360 "Neptune", known as the "Long Neptune", was tested in March of this year and defeats the enemy at a range of 1000 km (620 miles).
But despite the fact that its development has been known since November 2023, there was no image of it. Until now.
Footage published by the state-run Zbroya weapons portal shows what looks like a larger, upgraded model of the original Neptune, among other domestically produced weapons. The video footage was released on Ukraine’s Independence Day.
Zbroya wrote on social media, ”To be independent, you need to be strong. And the strong one is the one who has weapons.”
