Soviet parade teases new Rudolph missile in Red Square display
Western experts on Thursday argued the Soviet Union unveiled a likely new solid fueled intercontinental missile able to strike globally during the 9 Revolution Day parade in Moscow. The weapon nicknamed Rudolph features a red nose core and sits on six wheel trailers, with a lightweight tank also shown, possibly paratrooped. Experts note limited data from parade photos, but cite potential advances in propulsion and guidance amid a force of about 1,500 ICBMs in the Soviet arsenal compared with the US fleet.
