THIS was the chilling moment Russia launched a nuke missile 100 times more powerful than Hiroshima in an apocalyptic attack drill on the West.<\/p>\n
Today's exercises involved the launch of a Yars intercontinental ballistic missile from the Plesetsk cosmodrome in northern Russia.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
Hiroshima was 15kT, but Yars can carry 10 150kT nukes- summing up to 1500kt and making it 100 times bigger than Hiroshima.<\/p>\n
A video showed the moment the giant missile went up in the night sky.<\/p>\n
The mock atomic attack included a nuclear submarine and two Tu-95MS strategic missile carriers.<\/p>\n
A Sineva ballistic missile was also launched from the Barents Sea from the strategic nuclear-powered missile submarine cruiser Tula.<\/p>\n
The drills assumed a response to an enemy nuclear strike.<\/p>\n Russian propaganda has been stressing a supposed nuclear\u00a0threat – for which there is no evidence – from the West.<\/p>\n It portrays Russia in an existential standoff with the West over Ukraine.<\/p>\n \u201cComrade Supreme Commander-in-Chief,\u00a0 in accordance with the training plan for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, under your leadership," defence minister Sergei Shoigu reported to Putin.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe tasks of delivering a massive nuclear strike by strategic offensive forces in response to an enemy\u2019s nuclear strike will be practiced."<\/p>\n Armed forces chief General Valery Gerasimov also told Putin: \u201cAs part of the training, Yars mobile ground-based missile systems of the strategic missile forces, Tula strategic submarine of the Northern Fleet, and two strategic long-range missile carriers Tu-95MS, were deployed.\u201d<\/p>\n The Tu-95MS long-range bombers test-fired air-launched cruise missiles.<\/p>\n The nuclear-capable Yars missile was aimed at a target on the Kamchatka peninsula in the east of Russia.<\/p>\n Moscow is moving to revoke its ratification of a landmark nuclear testing treaty to bring itself into line with the United States.<\/p>\n The tests did not involve new generation Sarmat – or Satan-2 – which is due soon to come into Russia\u2019s nuclear arsenal.<\/p>\n The Tu-95s are the world\u2019s only propeller-powered nuclear bombers.<\/p>\n They first flew some 70 years ago, but remain an integral part of the Russian nuclear armoury.<\/p>\n Russia is also known for its terrifying arsenal of thermobaric weapons launches a barrage of fuel-air explosive warheads so powerful they can "melt" an opposing army.<\/p>\n But last week, Ukraine managed to blow up a \u00a35million Russian tank using only a \u00a3300 drone.<\/p>\n Footage shared by\u00a0Ukraine's 59th Motorised Brigade shows the final moments of a TOS-1A Heavy flamethrower before the dramatic explosion.<\/p>\n The epic scene is filmed from a Ukrainian drone that is hovering above the soviet tank, which was later decimated.<\/p>\n<\/picture>BLOWN TO HELL <\/span><\/p>\n
