Some rumours say we developed 3000 km missile. I try to confirm this. But 'Recep' is not available. I try to call him later.
rumors since decades say we have yildirim 1/2/3/4/5... 150km- 5000km 😅😂
but we need facts and HD video of them

Just a guess. Nationally security and military secrecy is more important than proving people on the internet about capabilities :D (even though it sucks for us)

I have a question which may be silly. Everyone is claiming that long range ballistic missiles with conventional warheads are useless. But if you can hit nuclear reactors of your enemies with those missiles? Are they still useless? I mean nuclear countries have also nuclear reactors. Does hitting a reactor with your missiles' conventional warheads produce similar effect of an atomic bomb? If yes, then you can respond their nuclear threat

It's not useless to have ICBMs with conventional warheads. There's two factors coming into the equation:
  • If you have them, you are literally one step behind nuclear capability. It doesn't make sense to not take that extra step.
  • Your perceived enemies are probably nuclear capable countries, too. Because no mid-sized country who only operates in its region wants to nuke another mid-sized country on another continent. You want to deter US, Russia or China in most cases. Vast majority of the remaining countries can be deterred by conventional means or irrelevant to you.

You can strike strategic targets but a country with such a reactor will likely have sufficient defenses and nukes, and nuclear reactors won't explode like a bomb, more like chernobyl. And attack on nuclear facility will be considered nuclear war so they will be justified to strike you back.

Indeed I asked this as a last resort to react against their nuclear attack. Of course it would be insane to threat them like thİs in a conventional war

According to the Chernobyl TV series, it's like being hit by an atomic bomb. :p Of course, that's an exaggeration...

It's not the same thing. Besides, nuclear power plants are built far away from settlements.

Most are just really close to cities in terms of if there is leakage

Looks like it has laser guidance head, what is special about such a missile? Maybe small enough to be used from drones?
