"Russia properly notified the United States under its New START treaty obligations that it planned to test this ICBM. Such testing is routine and was not a surprise. We did not deem the test to be a threat to the United States or its allies," - US Defense Department spokesperson John Kirby.

The USA hesitates to scare the Russian but the Russian does not hesitate to scare the USA?

I vaguely recall this from back in April of this year but had to refresh my memory.

"Russia successfully launches ICBM Sarmat from Plesetsk spaceport"

By Al Mayadeen Net | 20 Apr 2022.

Russian dooms-day missile Sarmat [NATO code name Satan-2] flight tested with all systems working properly! A missile with multiple warheads and according to the Russian only three missiles of which would be needed to destroy the American state of Texas.

"Today, at 15:12 Moscow time [12:12 GMT], at the Plesetsk State Test Cosmodrome in the Arkhangelsk Region, a Sarmat fixed-based intercontinental ballistic missile was successfully launched from a silo launcher,"
