Who cares, when it comes down to it, it's just a nuke. The same threat we've been facing since the 50's. Quoting: R. Wordsworth If they use it, we use our nukes, and it's game over for everybody. No missile defense system is 100% effective, if Russia fired everything they have enough would get through to wipe out every major city. Once again it's America that is the problem not Russia. The only threat America has faced since the 50's is from it's politicians. They the parasites WON! |

A cobalt bomb is a theoretical type of "salted bomb": a nuclear weapon designed to produce enhanced amounts of radioactive fallout, intended to contaminate a large area with radioactive material. The concept of a cobalt bomb was originally described in a radio program by physicist Leo Szilard on February 26, 1950. His intent was not to propose that such a weapon be built, but to show that nuclear weapon technology would soon reach the point where it could end human life on Earth [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] :damnedbigebola: Wow! The OP's article states that this Russian cobalt nuke is twice as powerful as the most powerful nuke ever tested, the Tsar Bomba. Here's a chart to give an idea what we are talking about in terms of yield (the small circled area at the left is the barely visible Hiroshima and Nagasaki yields which has been enlarged): :tsar crappa: |

It was the West that initated this new arms race when Bush unilaterlly withdrew from the ABM Treaty in 2001. Obama has done nothing but continue the work Bush began with regard to the NATO Missile Defense "Shield" in Poland. When fully operational in 2018, this "Shield" will directly neuter Russia's second strike nuclear capability, thus destroying the cornerstone of the Cold War Peace: Mutually Assured Destruction. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70788073 Agreed America is the problem and the Russians appear ready to....Live free or die...or in this case nuke you till you glow and take their chances on the living part. |

We have something better. We can shoot down all of their icbms. Stay mad Russia and China. If ww3 happens we will own you. :rere23: it is called thaad. look it you illiterate knucklehead. it is precicely why russia has been throwing a tantrum for the past 5 years. [link to www.defensenews.com] btw it is 100 percent effective against icbms. stay mad. You're not the sharpest tool in the shed now are you. Be honest now. We do not learn from history because our studies are brief and prejudiced. In a surprising manner, 250 years emerges as the average length of national greatness. This average has not varied for 3,000years. The stages of the rise and fall of great nations seem to be: The Age of Pioneers , The Age of Conquests ,The Age of Commerce ,The Age of Affluence ,The Age of Intellect ,The Age of Decadence. Decadence is marked by: Defensiveness, Pessimism, Materialism,Frivolity An influx of foreigners The Welfare State A weakening of religion. Decadence is due to: Too long a period of wealth and power, Selfishness Love of money ,The loss of a sense of duty. The life histories of great states are amazingly similar, and are due to internal factors. Their falls are diverse, because they are largely the result of external causes. - Sir John Glubb The Fate of Empires We are at the end of the Age of Decadence heading into COLLAPSE |

A warhead of up to 100 megatons could produce a tsunami up to 500m (1,650ft) high, wiping out all living things 1,500km (930 miles) deep inside US territory - Konstantin Sivkov, Russian Geopolitical Academy On the diagram the giant torpedo's range is given as "up to 10,000km" (6,200 miles) and depth of trajectory is "up to 1,000m" (3,300ft). It was developed by Rubin, a submarine design bureau in St Petersburg. It would, apparently, be launched by nuclear-powered submarines of the 09852 "Belgorod" and 09851 "Khabarovsk" series. Rossiiskaya Gazeta called the torpedo a "robotic mini-submarine", travelling at 100 knots (185km/h; 115mph), which would "avoid all acoustic tracking devices and other traps".  |

Snip "That would be a type of thermonuclear warhead with a layer of cobalt-59, which on detonation would be transmuted into highly radioactive cobalt-60 with a half-life longer than five years. Such a weapon would guarantee "that everything living will be killed", the paper said - there would not even be any survivors in bunkers." |

The most ridiculous and corny piece of propaganda I have ever seen come out of Russia. Print out a colored picture and frame a photo and bam the world is talking about your Psunami nuclear weapon. I mean you all can't be that stupid In America we shut down our coast and launch tests of our new missiles so the whole world can see. Nice try Putin!!! We've got the mother ducking triton missle that is real thing, not a drawing. |

The heights of surface waves generated by deep underwater explosions are greater because more energy is delivered to the water. During the Cold War, underwater explosions were thought to operate under the same principles as tsunamis, potentially increasing dramatically in height as they move over shallow water, and flooding the land beyond the shoreline.[6] Later research and analysis suggested that water waves generated by explosions were different from those generated by tsunamis and landslides. Méhauté et al. conclude in their 1996 overview Water Waves Generated by Underwater Explosion that the surface waves from even a very large offshore undersea explosion would expend most of their energy on the continental shelf, resulting in coastal flooding no worse than that from a bad storm.[1] Quoting: R. Wordsworth [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] The big underwater tests of the 60's in the Pacific proved that nukes at, or under, the sea aren't very effective, and that any potential damages are VERY limited. The Bikini tests showed that ships at sea are only in serious danger within the immediate area of the explosion, while others just 2-3 miles away suffered only from survivable damages. In the end, some of the big Soviet Thermobaric Torpedos are nearly as effective as nukes at sea, with MUCH less political fallout. |

What yields were being tested? The Russian torpedo carries a yield of 100 megatons and moves at a speed of over 100mph. Someone should run a simulation to see what the effects of such a detonation in coastal waters would be. |
