Russia fired old Soviet X-22 missiles in Ukraine for the first time/Word and Deed
So, in Odessa and the Odessa region, Russian invaders began to use Kh-22 missiles. In particular, two X-22 missiles flew in Artsyz, and one X-22 missile was launched in Odessa itself.
Russia got into Soviet stocks
X- 22 missiles have not previously been used on the territory of Ukraine, since these are not just old Soviet missiles, but very old Soviet missiles, the development of which began in 1958.
The missile has a very large warhead – 960 kilograms, but it is likely to be destroyed by air defense higher than that of the Caliber cruise missile or Kh-101 and P-800. But even this is not important, but the important thing is that this old rubbish, which is more than 50 years old, is used! content/uploads/2022/05/pochemu-vtoraja-armija-mira-nachala-bit-po-ukraine-raketami-kotorym-bolshe-60-let-237c5e2.jpg” alt=”Why the "second" army of the world began to beat against Ukraine with missiles that are more than 60 years old” />

“Second” the army of the world is being blown away
During the Soviet period, more than a thousand of these missiles were produced, but not all of them are in a condition that allows them to be used for their intended purpose. I will say more – they are generally dangerous for the use of the aircraft from which they are launched.
I wonder what will happen next? Get K-10 “Comet-10” from storage? The “second” army in the world…
