Russia's new nuclear drone submarine could be capable of causing 300ft-high tsunamis, able to wipe out coastal cities, experts say.
The existence of the drone, believed to be the Status-6 system - also known as 'Putin's doomsday machine' - was confirmed by the Russian President himself in his annual state-of-the-nation speech in Moscow last month.
Experts say a 50 megaton underwater nuclear bomb would be able to create tsunami waves reaching more than 320ft - the 'Status-6' is allegedly able to carry a 100 megaton warhead.
Watch the water?
And, if it went off near the Canary islands steep sloped volacno ... causing a massive under water landslide—the height of the tsunami might be even higher along the East Coast of the USA. And the Caribbean islands could be in real trouble along with what would then become FORMERLY Florida. ... as I understand it.
Exactly. When I heard that Russian subs had been slowly patrolling off the coasts again, this is one of things, I’ve always thought about that watch the water.
There’s also a gap in the buoy’s warning system along the east coast-so might get in a sneak/no warning to civilians in that area.
