Details: The source noted that the United States views the Oreshnik missile more as an attempt at intimidation rather than a weapon that could alter the situation on the battlefield in Ukraine.

They added that Russia only possesses a limited number of these missiles, and they carry a smaller warhead compared to other missiles Moscow frequently launches on Ukraine.
