Russian Iskander, US-Made ATACMS Face Off In Ukraine | Which Missile Is More Powerful? Comparison

While Russian Iskander-M missiles have been wreaking havoc in the war in Ukraine, the US-made ATACMS* have just entered the war zone. A former US soldier said the Iskander-M tactical short-range ballistic missiles are a "more capable weapon system" than its "equivalent", the ATACMS. Russian defence analysts also hailed Iskander-M’s performance on the battlefield, underscoring why it is recognised in the West. However, the entry of ATACMS missiles into the Ukraine war stirred a debate over which is the more lethal and superior weapon.
