Topol-M: Impressive weapon. Sounds like a LOT OF FUN to be on the receiving end of its 800kT warhead.
But what the hell, half the people on this site sound ready to go to war with Russia, so WHY THE HELL NOT!!!

We don’t have to go to war. The U.S. government is getting more and more incompetent. The real issue now is to simply develop self-sufficiency as much as possible, so that when the government officials commit the foolish war move, we can work o rebuild the nation out of he wreckage and save lives in the process.
Russian missiles originally carried 5, 10, or even 20 megaton nuclear weapons as their payloads. The 500 or 800 kt warheads are still devastating given that they are part of MIRV. In which one missile gives a carpet bombing of smaller nukes over an area. The individual nukes are less powerful, but the area gets carpeted with them, making them for practical purposes as devastating as a single larger warhead.
