Putin Stunner #5: 'Sarmat' - Next Gen, Invincible, Unlimited Range Nuke Missile (Video)

By RI Staff on Friday, March 2, 2018 - 05:16

Putin's historic, game-changing speech yesterday announced 5 key new technological weapons breakthroughs, putting Russia far ahead of NATO and the US, making its weapons, as Putin underlined many times, 'invincible'.


We've excerpted the parts of the speech where he describes each weapon, and will be posting them here. The other weapons are:

  • Putin Stunner #1: Invincible Nuke-Powered and Armed Underwater Drones MANY TIMES Faster Than Any Ship (Video)

  • Putin Stunner #2: 'The Avangard' - Invincible Nuke-Tipped Cruise Missile at 20X! Speed of Sound (Video)

  • Putin Stunner #3: 'The Dagger' - Invincible Plane-Launched Nuke Missile at 10X Speed of Sound (Video)

  • Putin Stunner #4: Mini, Nuke-Powered Engine for Invincible, UNLIMITED RANGE Guided Nuke Missiles (Video)

  • Putin Stunner #5: 'Sarmat' - Next Gen, Invincible, Unlimited Range Nuke Missile (Video)

And Putin's explanation of why Russia developed all these weapons:

  • Epic Putin: We Warned You, You Wouldn't Listen - 'Listen to Us Now!' (Video)

Transcript below:

During all these years since the unilateral US withdrawal from the ABM Treaty, we have been working intensively on advanced equipment and arms,

00:09

which allowed us to make a breakthrough in developing new models of strategic weapons.

00:15

Let me recall that the United States is creating a global missile defence system primarily for countering strategic arms that follow ballistic trajectories.

00:25

These weapons form the backbone of our nuclear deterrence forces, just as of other members of the nuclear club.

00:34

As such, Russia has developed, and works continuously to perfect, highly effective but modestly priced systems to overcome missile defence.

00:44

They are installed on all of our intercontinental ballistic missile complexes.

00:51

In addition, we have embarked on the development of the next generation of missiles.

00:57

For example, the Defence Ministry and enterprises of the missile and aerospace industry are in the active phase of testing a new missile system with a heavy intercontinental missile.

01:13

We called it Sarmat.

01:16

Sarmat will replace the Voevoda system made in the USSR. Its immense power was universally recognized.

01:26

Our foreign colleagues even gave it a fairly threatening name (Satan).

01:31

That said, the capabilities of the Sarmat missile are much higher.

01:35

Weighing over 200 tonnes, it has a short boost phase, which makes it more difficult to intercept for missile defence systems.

01:44

The range of the new heavy missile, the number and power of its combat blocs is bigger than Voevoda’s.

01:50

Sarmat will be equipped with a broad range of powerful nuclear warheads, including hypersonic, and the most modern means of evading missile defence.

02:00

The high degree of protection of missile launchers and significant energy capabilities the system offers will make it possible to use it in any conditions.

02:11

Could you please show the video.

03:11

Voevoda’s range is 11,000 km while Sarmat has practically no range restrictions.

03:17

As the video clips show, it can attack targets both via the North and South poles.

03:30

Sarmat is a formidable missile and, owing to its characteristics, is untroubled by even the most advanced missile defence systems.
