Russian Novosibirsk submarine test-fires Oniks, Kalibr missiles in exercise

The Russian nuclear-powered submarine Novosibirsk launched Oniks and Kalibr cruise missiles during exercises, with the Kalibr striking a target at the Kura testing ground on Kamchatka, over 1,200 km away. This is a routine demonstration of Russia's strategic missile capability, though it signals continued readiness and may be part of broader military signaling amid ongoing tensions. The event is confirmed by state media and is not an escalation beyond standard exercise activity.
