俄罗斯发射高超音速超级核弹头

Russia has tested a prototype of a radical new hypersonic nuclear warhead it has been claimed.

俄罗斯测试了一款此前已经公布过的全新高超音速核弹头的样弹。

Troops launched an RS-18 ballistic missile on Tuesday which is believed to have been a test of the advanced hypersonic glider warhead according to RT.com.

据RT.com(译者注：这是一家俄罗斯的全天候英语资讯频道)报道，军方周二发射了一枚RS-18弹道导弹，据信这是先进的高超音速滑翔弹头。

It is eventually expected to be used by the Satan 2 'super-nuke' that is capable of wiping out England and Wales and is 2000 times as powerful as the Hiroshima bomb.

这种弹头最终将用于撒旦-2型超级核弹，它可以把英格兰和威尔士夷为平地，是广岛原子弹威力的2000倍。

Defence blog MilitaryRussia.ru says the launch was meant to test Russia's hypersonic glider warhead currently known by its developer designation 'obxt 4202' or Aeroballistic Hypersonic Warhead.

国防部网页MillitaryRussia.ru说，此次发射意味着俄罗斯在测试目前所知的由其研发者命名为“obxt 4202”的高超音速滑翔弹头，即空气弹道高超音速弹头。

The hypersonic glide vehicle would be able to get past missile defences as they make it impossible to calculate the warhead's ballistic trajectory.

高超音速滑翔载具能够突破通过导弹防御系统，因为这种载具使得弹头的弹道轨迹无法计算。

The latest test is believed to have been conducted from a site near the town of Yasny Orenburg region in the southern Urals and the warhead reached the Kura test range in Kamchatka in Russia's Far East.

最新的测试被认为是从乌拉尔南部的奥伦堡地区雅思尼镇附近的基地发射，弹头落到了俄罗斯远东堪察加半岛的库拉导弹试验区。
