They knew how to do it in Soviet times! 50 years to the device, and the potential for modernization is inexhaustible. As the flyers said to the designers - do what you want, but don’t touch the review, it’s better anyway.

Strange, they remembered about Siberia, otherwise all the weapons go to Moscow, South-Eastern Military District, Far Eastern Military District.

As it is not patriotic called "Terminator". What would the adversary be afraid of? Then it's better Alyosha Popovich, Ilya Muromets, Serpent Gorynych let the enemies learn Russian ... it will come in handy when we come to visit.
