Ukrainian Neptune missiles that sank Russian crusader are still in testing phase

Ukraine declared that the Russian warship, "Moskva", destroyed it by hitting it with two missiles of indigenous production; Neptune.

But what are these missiles? For the first time, this missile was announced in 2013. The prototype was built and tested in 2016. As far as this missile is known, there was no steering system. The missile itself designed against warships has a range of up to 300 kilometres.

It can be transported and released by naval, land and air platforms. Development of the Neptune land-based anti-ship missile system was completed in 2019. Tests by the Ukrainian military ended in 2020. In 2021, the 'Neptune' ASHM pre-production system was handed over to the army for testing.

During testing, the missile appeared perfectly and was put into service with the Ukrainian Armed Forces. In 2021, ukraine's Defence Ministry financed the production of a new series of coastal defence systems 'Neptune'.

It was planned for a group of 18 to 19 missiles to be delivered in 2022. It is not known how many such missiles are in service with the Ukrainian military currently. But they exist and operate successfully, which was witnessed by the sunken crusader Moskva.

For the construction of this missile, Ukraine is believed to have exploited the knowledge it gathered during the time of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union, had plans to produce Kh-35 missiles in Ukraine. However, missile development preceded the end of the Cold War and the fall of the Soviet Union.

As a result, Kh-35 never entered service and was first produced in Russia in the mid-1990s alone. Therefore, most likely, Ukraine had all the technical documentation for this missile. Furthermore, Ukraine produced engines and several other components for Russian Kh-35 missiles.
