So Hillary, how's that Russian reset going? :)
 
Russian president Vladimir Putin now has a little “devil” on his shoulder that is capable of destroying a geographic area the size of France — the RS-28 Sarmat “Satan 2” rocket.

Images of Makeyev Rocket Design Bureau’s RS-28 Sarmat were released online for the first time Wednesday. The weapon was commissioned in 2010, although details on its capabilities were reported by Russian state media over the summer.

“If its military abilities are real, which is what everybody expects, it’s quite a formidable weapon. A very formidable weapon. It can hit any target on any side of the United States, for instance,” CNN’s senior international correspondent Matthew Chance said from Moscow on Wednesday.

“It’s powerful enough to destroy a country — a single missile — the size of France. It can carry up to 15 warheads. It can evade missile defenses quite effectively as well. It’s a pretty awesome sort of missile, but hopefully it won’t ever be used.”

  1. Most people don't grasp physics, specifically the inverse square law. 15 warheads can do a lot of damage but even if every warhead was 25MT IT would not be enough to destroy all of France. 15 cities....but not the whole country. This is more hype, propaganda and sabre rattling. During the cold war the Russians made all kinds of promises about now dangerous their weapons were.
    Desert Storm etc showed everyone how over inflated their claims were.....this is more of the same.

    1. Desert Storm

      We weren't fighting Russia, Dan.

    2. I think some warheads are larger than others. When they say it could destroy a whole country I think they mean to take in account the entire fire power in one missile.

      capable of wiping out England and Wales and 2,000 times as powerful as the Hiroshima bomb

    1. Yes and the same in Vietnam, but we saw committed commies using them which is what we would get going to war with Russia. It's really beyond me how any one in our government would even consider such madness. For one, Russia believes they can win a nuclear war.

  3. Russia claims they could destroy a country the size of France with one missile and fifteen warheads. Anyone who knows about physics, radiation and math knows this to be IMPOSSIBLE. Just as they propagandize about many things including the quality of their military and weapons. Fifteen warheads can destroy fifteen cities and perhaps lead to the downfall of the French government but it CANNOT physically destroy all of France.
