The '''Oreshnik''' (hazelnut tree) is a high-precision medium-range [[hypersonic]] [[missile]] with both [[nuclear]] and non-nuclear MaRV (maneuverable reentry vehicle) capabilities delivering 36 warheads. It is believed the reentry vehicles have their own guidance and propulsion system. Oreshnik fly's at speeds of up to Mach 10 (around 7,600 miles/12,200km per hour/3 km per sec.), or ten times the speed of sound. The high velocity makes it virtually impossible to intercept by the most advanced [[NATO]] missile defense systems. The missile hits its target at a temperature of 4000 Celsius, turning everything into dust. The [[weapon]] produces nuclear-scale destruction without being nuclear, providing long term [[radioactive]] damage to the environment.

According to ''Military Watch'' magazine, Russia is capable of producing 25 Oreshnik missiles per month.<ref>https://t.me/ForeignAgentIntel/12960</ref>
