The Deadly Physics of the Flying Hacksaw in Ukraine

This video explores the 'Flying Hacksaw' continuous rod warhead missile, a unique piece of military technology used by Russia, Ukraine, and NATO.

In April, Ukraine pulled a “radioactive” missile out of a Russian drone wreckage. Every headline went straight to dirty nuke. But they’re wrong, and the truth is weirder. The missile is an R-60 Aphid, a Soviet dogfight weapon from the 1970s, bolted onto a Geran-2 attack drone, carrying a continuous-rod warhead that doesn't explode so much as deploy a spinning ring of metal that slices through whatever it touches.

The radiation is real because the continuous rod warhead uses depleted uranium in some variants. The dirty nuke framing is not real. In this video: how a continuous-rod warhead actually works, why Russia is putting air-to-air missiles on one-way drones, and what that category change means for every Ukrainian pilot. Stay safe out there.
