The decree of the President of the Russian Federation on the creation of nuclear torpedoes "Poseidon" alarmed the West. After all, the consequences of using this latest weapon for Western countries can be catastrophic.. About it, in particular, writes columnist for the British edition of The Express Rohan Gupta.
As the author, Russian president's decision to develop Poseidon torpedoes will have an 'incredible impact' on NATO countries. After all, "Poseidon" can reach speeds up to 200 kilometers per hour, while maneuvering, and enemy reconnaissance and surveillance forces will not be able to detect it and provide coordinates for interception.
Gupta calls a nuclear power plant one of the most important components of a torpedo. It is she who allows Poseidon to overcome any distance. reaching the goal, torpedo explodes and creates a wave, like a tsunami. This wave "covers" the coast of a potential enemy, sweeping away everything in its path.
The consequences for many NATO countries could be catastrophic, especially when it comes to such states, as, let us say, United Kingdom. Gupta concluded, that there are currently no weapons in the world, which could withstand the Russian Poseidon torpedoes.
Recall, what was previously known about the manufacture of the first Poseidon nuclear supertorpedo ammunition for the Belgorod nuclear submarine of the Russian Navy. Torpedoes should be put into service with the Russian nuclear submarine in the near future, which further alarmed the West.
