These missiles carry multiple warheads. It's not just one bomb.

I'm talking about you and your cold war tin foil hat. You are always posting Russia propaganda.

Not really. This thing has 12 warheads and could wipe out an area about the size of Texas. A dozen Czar bombs would wipe out an area probably about two times that size.


No.

ETA: So what if it has 12 warheads? I skimmed the article, and found no mention of the megatonnage per warhead, hence my mention of Tsar Bomba, which x 12 still would not be big enough to cover the entire area, despite being the biggest bomb ever detonated. I don't even know if they can miniaturize that yield to fit in the MIRVs.

Russia is still a formidable foe. Just because the cold war is over doesn't mean they aren't capable.

In some ways, I feel today's hostility climate is more dangerous than the cold war days.

Cold war tin foil? Do you think this is all some far out conspiracy or something?

The Mirror is not a Russian publication. And I think the development of such a weapon is legit news. I'm sorry if things like this scare you and you don't want to hear it. Let me bring you a dose of reality.

1. Russia is busy as hell pumping out new weapons systems and have been for over a decade now.

2. Russia in not now, nor have they ever been our friend. Nor are they to be trusted.

I know you want to keep your head in the sand and pretend it's still the late 90's. But that was 20 years ago. Time to wake up, sunshine.

We need another "great enemy". This country kicked so much arse when we had a comparable foe to compete against. Americans had a drive to be better than "them".

Now our great enemy is feelings.

Oh yeah, I forgot. He's the one who though we could wipe out any Russian invasion of central Europe using just drones.

Russia doesn't have a nation destroying nuke. They're just beating their chest and talking shite like we did with the Star Wars defense in the 80's

Hopefully on ISIS



Sounds like a plan, pretty much any middle east country is good with me.

I remember when the Mig 25 was first developed. Turned out to be about 1/3rd of what the Russians claimed.

This is probably similar.

I won't. But Boston Dynamics will.

An army of 4 legged drones full of weapons.

Faster, stronger, and better than any human soldier

Could you quit propagating this old cold war bullshite? You are eating it all up just like Putin wants you to.

Every time you mention how Russia's a threat, Putin wins.
