Russia, one of the most powerful armies in the world, has added a weapon to its military capability, which is called Poseidon. It is also being called Doomsday drone and sea monster. This is not an ordinary weapon, but a nuclear system capable of causing widespread destruction from under the sea.

Russian President Vladimir Putin himself has explained the power of this weapon in public forums. According to him, Poseidon is such a system which can neither be stopped nor tracked with the existing technology. Putin says that this weapon takes Russia’s strategic security to a completely new height.

Poseidon Underwater Drone

Poseidon is a nuclear powered underwater drone, which is called an unmanned underwater vehicle. It is launched from a submarine and can travel non-stop for extremely long distances in the depths of the ocean. Its most special thing is that it produces very little noise, which makes it very difficult for the enemy sonar system to detect.

Capable of causing radioactive tsunami

According to Russian strategic analysts, if Poseidon is detonated near the coastal area of ​​an enemy country, it could cause a radioactive tsunami. The huge sea waves arising from this explosion can not only destroy the coastal cities, but can also spread deadly radiation along with the water. Its impact is expected to last for many generations.

How is Poseidon prepared?

Poseidon is made from titanium alloy, due to which it can withstand pressure even in extreme depths of the sea. A small, but extremely powerful nuclear reactor has been installed in it, which keeps it active for a long time. Its speed is said to be much greater than that of conventional torpedoes, due to which it is considered almost impossible to stop.

What is the specialty of Poseidon?

The most dangerous feature of this weapon is its ability to attack stealthily. Its sound is so low that even modern sonar systems are not able to catch it in time. Experts believe that by the time any country realizes its arrival, it will have exploded below its target.

How is a drone activated?

Russia can release this drone not only from submarines but also in an inactive state in the sea through a technology called Skiff. Under this technique, Poseidon can be kept for a long time by hiding it inside a container in the sea. As soon as a signal is received from Russia or any target comes near, this drone can become active and attack.

Poseidon a doomsday weapon

Poseidon is being called the Doomsday weapon because its purpose is not only to destroy military bases but also to leave entire coastal areas uninhabitable. Radiation, marine destruction and long-term environmental damage make it more dangerous than conventional nuclear weapons.
