Grozny "Poseidon": "live" shots of the Russian super-torpedo appeared

25
In March of this year, Russian President Vladimir Putin presented several breakthrough armory systems that are designed not only to restore the nuclear parity of the United States, but also to significantly enhance the capabilities of the RF Armed Forces.

Already then there were suggestions that the "new weapon of Russia" was nothing more than a fiction. However, then the Ministry of Defense demonstrated the test frames of the dagger hypersonic aircraft complex, as well as the video of the Sarmat strategic missile missile tests. After that, the skeptics diminished.



Now the Russian military department has published the first “live” images of the strategic ocean system Poseidon. Its feature is the presence of a nuclear power plant, which provides unlimited range of this supertorpedo. Due to its characteristics, it is almost impossible to detect and destroy.

The main task of "Poseidon" will be the fight against enemy carrier strike groups, as well as the destruction of naval bases on the coast.

      I always liked and admired torpedoes, as a concentration of the power of naval weapons! Yes
      "Poseidon" is a vivid example of this Power good , Domestic!

        You are right, it looks like the leadership of the Moscow Region or, moreover, the government who warns someone against rash actions.

        Or it’s a duck by the type of SOI so that amers can be bred for money.

      I honestly don’t understand why such a fool is, because Russian nuclear scientists can even make a nuclear or isotopic SU based on a standard torpedo of 533mm or 650mm, Poseidon can be a universal tool.

        A lot of space is needed for navigation and guidance.
        Finding AUG in the ocean is not an easy task.

        There may be a warhead 20, and even more Megatons

        Rather, this is due to the possibility of deploying an ultra-powerful thermonuclear warhead, maybe under 200 Megatons.

      A serious contraption has an unlimited range, it is now possible to drop them from any barge if necessary, or to destroy torpedo tubes directly in the granite rocks on the coast, there are many options.

        Or create a secret base in Antarctica for Petrels and Poseidons. SASHA is waiting from the waters of the Pacific and Atlantic and from the Arctic oceans, our submarines, and these will fly and sail along the coastline of South America and hit directly under the drawbar.

      Jules Verne is spinning in a coffin, here is the material for the book. There is a very wise saying, for every action, there will be opposition. Do not underestimate the likely partners, there are also not all psaki. And in general, all this smoothly passes into a new Cold War with a tolerant reserve.

        At the moment, the United States does not have anything against such an action - it will not be possible to intercept.

          Hmm, well, not by the way, I wonder what speed the torpedo will have and whether it will make a lot of noise. The depth of immersion is also interesting. For even in the councils electric torpedoes at a depth of about a kilometer could act. And drones in the states are being developed by search engines. I bet that this project is a type of Reagan SDI, that amer to breed money

      The trouble with this torpedo is that it is nuclear, and it will never be used

        During the tests they will apply, launch from the port of Murmansk to the final point - the port of Vladivostok, where they will meet her.

        But it’s not necessary. And it has already reached its goal. It has cooled off hot heads in the US Senate. They will need a little, 15-25 pcs. For the eyes.
        PS: This device is a technology demonstrator, like the “Tsar Bomb.” The charge of which, by the way, fits quite well in the dimensions of the Poseidon. And if in the “Sakharov Puff” the tamper is made of uranium as structurally conceived, and not of lead as it was, then the power will be 150-200 megatons. And not 48,7 as it was.

      Jules Verne has nothing to do with it.
      everything has been invented, written and even filmed for a long time - "The Secret of Two Oceans." winked

      As I understand it, the depth of the course of this torpedo is at least 1 km, plus the mode of enveloping the terrain (it’s not for nothing that our cartographers go around world waters). The noise from the aircraft carrier connection is such that the locators stall near, therefore it is more than likely to aim, plus the system is likely to exit into the wake track, and the torpedo itself at this depth due to the difference in salinity, boundaries of different layers and variable currents will be difficult. To that, as I already understand, cruising speed and combat speed at the final section will differ significantly.
