Putin’s navy frigate armed with hypersonic missiles ‘sailed towards US in the Atlantic in a show of strength’ after passing Britain. It was sailing casually toward South Africa for some naval exercise but just now has inexplicably turned directly toward the US.

A Russian frigate carrying ‘unstoppable’ Mach 9 nuclear-capable hypersonic cruise missiles has deviated from its course and is sailing towards the US coast, reports have claimed.
The Admiral Gorshkov, armed with Zircon missiles which Vladimir Putin boasts has ‘no equivalent in the world’, is being closely monitored by NATO navies during its maiden voyage.
Earlier this month, the frigate was escorted through British waters by the Royal Navy, and French and Spanish ships then escorted it through the Atlantic.
But monitoring sites claim it took a sudden diversion and headed west towards Bermuda. An effective salvo launch distance from the US coast.
