New Russian Cruise Missile Seen Threatening U.S. Bases
The BGM-109G "Gryphon" ground-launched cruise missile was developed by the U.S. Air Force in the 1980s. The program was terminated is response to the INF Treaty.
U.S. Defense Department
The vice chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff says Russia’s new land-based cruise missile puts at risk “most of our facilities in Europe” and has been deliberately deployed to threaten NATO. The missile’s deployment “violates the spirit and intent” of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty, signed by U.S. President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in 1987
