WASHINGTON — The missile that took down a disabled spy satellite last week almost certainly destroyed a tank filled with potentially harmful hydrazine fuel, the Pentagon said Monday.
“By all accounts this was a successful mission,” said Gen. James Cartwright, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The conclusion was based on a study of the debris field, he said. The Pentagon also has video shot from the missile as it approached the satellite, McClatchy Newspapers reported, but that video is not being released.
