Hilarious. Looks like Putin is taking a page out of Reagan’s book. Hey, remember that time when the Kremlin was so stupid that they actually believed the Star Wars program was a real thing, and that the U.S. put magical lasers in space? I remember.
Even if Poseidon was operational (which it isn’t), it would be less destructive than just detonating the same size warhead conventionally. It doesn’t change the strategic balance - pre-existing weapons can achieve the same or better result as it is, an unmanned underwater drone is possibly the least threatening way to deploy a nuclear warhead, not to mention the most easily intercepted. Sarmat, or SATAN-II, has been in development for 13 years with nothing to show for it - Putin only just started threatening to deploy it in the field. Good job trying to scare the west with weapons that aren’t in service or are straight up stupid - we’re so scared.
Oh man, you’re threatening people with a good time.and the UK has 200 nuclear warheads , imagine just what 1 would do to Moscow or St Petersburg
Speaking of Russia’s nuclear capabilities…

Oh-oh, spaghetti-oh’s… The noose tightens. Someone in Putin’s immediate circle wanted to send a message, it seems. Vlad’s gonna have to find a new suitcase carrier.
For the record, the Izh 79-9TM is a non-lethal pneumatic pistol. Nobody in their right mind would try to “commit suicide” with one, not unless they were aiming for a long and painful death. Supposedly the guy was drunk, but it sure sounds like a scare tactic to me. Funny that his brother didn’t see a thing either… but what do I know, I’m just a guy on the Internet who knows gas pistols aren’t the ideal weapon to end your own life with.
