Defense confirmed the completion of a successful firing test of the
Onix ground-launched, supersonic anti-ship cruise missile at a naval
target floating at the Arctic Sea, 200 kilometers from the Chukotka
Peninsula. The test reinforces the Russian claim to control this new,
strategic sea route that has opened as a result of global warming
effects.</p>
