A missile that Russian President Vladimir Putin once dubbed as "undefeatable" is not hitting its targets in Ukraine, according to British defense officials.
Putin has boasted about the capabilities of the AS-24 KILLJOY air-launched ballistic missile, which can have a nuclear payload and can travel faster than the HIMARS (High Mobility Artillery Rocket System) that the U.S. has given Ukraine.
In its latest update, the British Ministry of Defense (MOD) said that the Russian Air Force "highly likely" fired at least one AS-24 KILLJOY on December 14 at a military airfield into central Ukraine, without specifying the location further.
