Russia's Putin unveils 'invincible' nuclear weapons

Russia's Putin unveils 'invincible' nuclear weapons - BBC News

Some nice graphics in the video but the audience don't look terribly excited.....

J V Stalin would have has "applause breaking into standing ovation " at the very least

Also they clearly "launch" from Russia but the other land masses are carefully altered so you can't see who the target is........

Russia has developed a new array of nuclear weapons that are invincible, according to President Vladimir Putin.


Mr Putin made the claims as he laid out his key policies for a fourth presidential term, ahead of an election he is expected to win in 17 days' time.
The weapons he boasted of included a cruise missile that he said could "reach anywhere in the world".


He said of the West: "They need to take account of a new reality and understand ... [this]... is not a bluff." Giving his annual state of the nation speech, Mr Putin used video presentations to showcase the development of two new nuclear delivery systems that he said could evade detection. One included a "low-flying, difficult-to-spot cruise missile... with a practically unlimited range and an unpredictable flight path, which can bypass lines of interception and is invincible in the face of all existing and future systems of both missile defence and air defence".


Another weapon he discussed was a submarine-launched, long-range missile capable of delivering a nuclear warhead.
