During its test combat deployment against a Ukrainian military-industrial target Thursday, the Oreshnik was thought to have traveled 1,000 km or more to Dnepropetrovsk from Russia's Astrakhan region.Here are some key NATO facilities in reach of the new hypersonic intermediate-range missile:Eastern EuropePolandEstoniaLatviaLithuaniaRomaniaBulgariaKosovoNorthern EuropeFinlandSwedenWestern EuropeGermanyHome to by far the largest US garrison in Europe and the second-largest US deployment abroad besides Japan.
