Russia's newest rocket test failed-agencies
MOSCOW, Oct 25 (Reuters) Russia's newest intercontinental ballistic rocket, which military sources said was successfully tested today, actually fell into the sea several minutes into its flight, Russian agencies quoted the navy as saying.
Navy sources said earlier today that the Bulava missile had been launched from a nuclear submarine in the White Sea and flew nearly the length of the giant nation to the Kura military testing site in the Far East.
