Most Americans Don’t Know About The New Nuclear Weapons Russia Has Developed Since The End Of The Cold War
estruction” has been pounded into our heads so many times that most people simply assume that it would be unthinkable for either side to attempt a nuclear strike. That may have been true in the 1980s, but things have changed dramatically since that time. The Russians have developed some extremely impressive weapons and anti-missile systems since the end of the Cold War, but most Americans don’t even know that they exist.
Let’s start with the RS-28 Sarmat. While the U.S. still relies on hopelessly outdated Minuteman III missiles that first went into service in 1970, the Russians have developed
the most advanced intercontinental ballistic missiles on the entire planet…
The U.S. military has no way to defend against the Sarmat.
The Russians have also developed a very alarming line of hypersonic missiles that we have no way to defend against. In fact, the Russians
just released footage of the Zircon hypersonic nuclear missile which can travel at speeds of up to 7,000 miles per hour.
Meanwhile, the U.S. is way behind both the Russians and the Chinese when it comes to developing hypersonic missiles.
But if the Russians were to hit the U.S. with a surprise first strike, they would probably utilize their
“black hole submarines”…
These “black hole submarines” were designed
to be as quiet as possible, and that makes them ideal for a sneak attack…
These submarines have the ability to sneak up to our coastlines without us even realizing that they are there.
And once they launch their missiles, we would only have a few moments to respond.
As terrifying as that sounds, many experts are even more concerned about a submarine-launched weapon known as
“Poseidon”…
We would never see the Poseidon coming.
Theoretically, the Russians could deploy Poseidons to all of our major coastal cities and detonate them all simultaneously.
Just take a few moments to think about what that would mean.
And it has been reported that some Russian officials have said that the Poseidon
“can be equipped with a 100 megaton weapon”…
Such a weapon could destroy New York City in the blink of an eye.
But all of these offensive weapons won’t do the Russians much good if they can’t defend against our missiles.
Unfortunately for us, the Russians have developed the most advanced anti-missile systems in the world. The S-400 and the A-135 are vastly superior to anything that we have, and now the extremely sophisticated S-500
is being put into service…
If Russia were to launch a nuclear attack against us, we would definitely be destroyed.
But most Americans don’t realize that the Russians now have systems that have been specifically designed to handle whatever we might throw at them.
In other words, the balance of power has shifted.
But most of our leaders continue to mock the idea that the Russians are a threat to us. For example, just consider these recent comments
from U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham…
