Russia has flexed its nuclear muscles once again by sending the world's largest submarine with an arsenal of 200 weapons on board including 20 nuclear missiles to the Baltic Sea.

The massive Typhoon-class sub called Dmitry Donskoy is to leave the White Sea and travel around Norway and Denmark into what Putin's officials are calling NATO's swimming pool.

Measuring 574-foot in length and equipped with a total of 200 deadly weapons, it is one of the most feared vessels of the Cold War era.

The Kremlin is scheduled to parade the submarine in St Petersburg, but is set to serve as a chilling reminder to the rest of the world about Russia's nuclear prowess.

Adam Schiff will likely use that map as proof Russians were involved in today's Stockholm attack.

Their lone remaining aircraft carrier has a tug in its support fleet because it breaks down so often.

I would think we have a seawolf or Virginia class sub shadowing the every move.

Hey, looks like Hunt for Red October used a good looking replica model. Very similar in look.

Never understood stuff like this. Everyone knows Russia has nukes. Moving the sub to the Baltic sea doesn't make it any more of a threat than if it was off the shore of Russia. ICBM's are ICBM's no matter from where they are launched.
