All targeting solutions for sublight speed are computable.

    Khinzal for example is meant to be both a ground targeting missile and a “carrier killer”. That alone should mean it’s indeed maneuverable in flight.

      There’s always a significant difference in what the Russian MOD says their equipment is meant for and what it’s capabilities actually are.

      Also, if Khinzal was really that maneuverable then how were the Ukrainians able to intercept multiple with the much slower Patriot missiles?

        One can put serious doubt on their claims. Ukrainain MoD has every incentive to lie and on top of that they did show off some empty soviet era bombshells as remnants of a shot down Kinzhal.

          And Russia doesn’t? Besides, it’s already common knowledge that Khinzal is just a ballistic missile
