Today in this article we give the info related to ICBMs and a List of the Top 10 Longest Range ICBMs In The World with Images, you can Download This Pdf in 1 Click, (go to the end of this article) and we’ll focus on the longest-range ICBMs ranging from the m51 ICBM in France to the RS-28 Sarmat in Russia.

Intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) are a major nuclear deterrent and only a few nations possess the technology to launch such long-range weaponry these deadly missiles have a minimum range of 5,500 kilometers modern ICBMs typically carry more than one nuclear warhead most modern designs support, Multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle (MIRVs). So a single missile can carry several warheads each of which will strike a different target furthermore ICBMs carry an array of decoys that allow overcoming hostile air defenses.

List of Top 10 longest range Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs)

#6.UGM-133 Trident II (12,000 km)

UGM-133 Trident II is a three-stage solid solid-fueled submarine-launched intercontinental-range ballistic missile the trident d5 missile is deployed by both the united states and the united kingdom on their respective Ohio and vanguard-class nuclear missile submarines it can carry up to eight mirvs either the mark iv with a w76 100 kiloton yield warhead or the mark v which is a w88 475 kiloton yield warhead.

#5. Hwasong-15 (13,000 km)

the Hwasong-15 u.s designation kn-22 is a north Korean road-mobile ICBM the largest and most powerful missile north Korea is tested to date it’s capable of reaching the continental united states currently there is no consensus assessment in the u.s intelligence community on the performance of this ICBM.

#4. DongFeng 5 (DF-5) (14,000+km)

DongFeng 5 is a silo-based ICBM it’s the first ICBM that china developed and has been extensively modernized since its entry into service to develop the more sophisticated df-5b and df-5c variants in 2017 media reports surfaced that china tested a new variant of the missile the df-5c that’s equipped with 10 mirvs this number of mirvs is a significant increase from the three warheads previously deployed on the df-5b.

#3. Dongfeng-41 (DF-41) (15,000 km)

the Dongfeng-41 is a Chinese road-mobile ICBM it’s currently the most powerful Chinese ICBM and one of the deadliest in the world it can carry up to 10 mirvs with its 15,000-kilometer range it’s sufficient to reach all areas of the united states Europe and Russia it will take roughly 20 to 25 minutes from launch for the df-41 to reach targets in the united states.

#2. R-36M (SS-18 Satan) (16,000 km)

R-36M (SS-18 Satan) is a silo-based liquid propellant ballistic missile initially developed by the soviet union and now the Russian federation it’s believed that a total of 6 versions have existed since the program’s inception with only the mod 6s still operationally deployed the mod 6 has 10 mirv warhead with each warhead having a 500 to 750 kiloton yield.

#1. RS-28 Sarmat (18,000 km)

RS-28 Sarmat also known as satan 2 Russia began developing this silo-based missile in the early 2000s and can load up to 10 large mirvs 16 smaller ones with a combination of warheads and countermeasures or hypersonic boost-glide vehicles it’s a super heavy thermonuclear armed intercontinental range ballistic missile that weighs 200 metric tons it’s about 220 tons the Sarmat missile was developed to replace Russia’s current intercontinental ballistic missile the aging soviet-era r36 or Voevoda dubbed satan by NATO.
