The new torpedoes would be carried on the Belgorod nuclear submarine
Joe Barnes – The Telegraph Jan 16, 2023
Russia has built the first examples of an “unstoppable” nuclear torpedo intended to devastate coastal cities by creating radioactive tsunamis, state media has claimed.
“The first set of Poseidons have been manufactured, and the Belgorod submarine will receive them in the near future,” Tass, a Russian state news agency reported, quoting an unnamed defence source.
The Poseidon nuclear torpedo has its roots in Soviet plans for a weapon that would be able to render coastal cities on the shores of the United States uninhabitable.
Since the war in Ukraine began, Kremlin propagandists have often threatened to destroy London using the torpedo.
First unveiled by Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, in 2018, both US and Kremlin officials believe that the torpedo is a new breed of retaliatory weapon.
The 24 metre long torpedo was designed to travel up to 80mph underwater carrying a two megaton nuclear warhead – more than 100 times more powerful than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima.
Christopher Ford, then US assistant secretary of state for international security and non-proliferation, warned in 2020 that the weapons were being designed to “inundate US coastal cities with radioactive tsunamis”.
The US Naval Institute, a military think tank, said the development of Poseidon turned assumptions about submarine-launched nuclear weapons upside down.
The weapon is expected to enter into service around 2027, but has reportedly been blighted by technical difficulties.

In November last year, US intelligence officials reported that initial sea tests had failed.
The torpedo had been due to be tested in the Arctic on the Belgorod – which, at 178 metres long, is the largest submarine in the world.
But the vessel returned to port at Severomorsk, the Russian Northern Fleet base, without any evidence the Poseidon had been tested, according to reports.
Tass reported that the submarine’s crew had since completed tests with models of the torpedo.
Analysts, however, say the Kremlin has a history of exaggerating the capability of newly developed weapons.
Justin Crump, of Sibylline, an intelligence and geopolitical risk company, said:
“While the Poseidon is certainly a new form of weapon, it is principally a deterrent in nature, designed to avoid missile defence mechanisms.
“Kremlin-sponsored rhetoric about the weapon has often been overblown, particularly the claims aimed at the UK.”
There are very few confirmed public details of the weapon apart from apparent Russian simulations of it striking enemy aircraft carriers and coastlines.
Last year, a Russian broadcaster played an animated video which purported to demonstrate how a Poseidon torpedo could “plunge Britain into depths of the sea”.

On his Sunday evening prime time show, Dmitry Kiselyov, a leading Kremlin propagandist, said the weapon could be used to turn Britain into a wasteland by drowning it in a 500 metre tsunami of radioactive seawater.
And in response to Britain’s decision to send 14 Challenger II tanks to Ukraine, retired general Andrey Gurulev, another Putin loyalist, said the country should be “demolished from the face of the Earth“.
Since when has the Telegraph been worth reading?
This BS is at least seven years old, but the repeaters jump on “just out news” and perform as useful idiots for the fear porn…
It’s like someone starting a chant at a football match and everyone else joins in with their baa baa baa…
From 2015 and carried on my website since 2018, yet here in 2023 it is “news”…
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-34797252
“So let’s ratchet up the fear and start up with our old chant again…”
I’m surprised the Truthseeker hasn’t covered the “Iranian uranium smuggling….” I wonder whether it was carried in a shoe…
the telegraph is “right” everything russia produces are cardboard models and everything kremlin says is propaganda, till they are not of course, but for till plebs grasp lets roll
You mean epicentres of filth like Jew York City, L.A., D.C., etc could be submerged under water forever? Bring it on!
B’bye Britannia…. gurgle, gurgle….. glug, glug…
No doubt when old Vlad lets one of these babes rip in the North Sea…
tens of thousands of Albanians and Africans will be surfing the crest of the tsunami on rubber rings….
destination Beachy Head and then onwards to The Savoy for a Bar &Grill…
and good nights sleep.. on expenses..
Putin, why so gigantic ? split your most
nuke arsenal into thousand mininukes !
the knowhow you will get from israhell
for surgical strikes . israhell is specialist
of all kinds of mininukes, neutronukes etc .
The usual Daily Telegraph garbage.
Why did Russia develop so many new weapons? Because Dubya pulled out of nuclear treaties.
Putin warned that if the US Nazi state went ahead, Russia would respond, and they did, with an entirely new range of weapons which the NWO has no defence against, or a comparable offering.
Let’s go back to the tears after WW2 where the UK and UK developed conventional bombs with the equivalence of a nuclear device, which could send a tsunami against an enemy coastal city.
According to what we know, or think we know, the NWO developed a weapon primarily to be used against a civilian population.
Russia developed their tsunami drone as a deterent. Remember, the development of these weapons started a long time ago.
Bull shit no nukes. Just fear mongering. I bet this is not posted on your site?
Imagine if you will two stalwart forces facing each other,
each bearing a banner of St. Andrew as their battlefield Patron.
One ceaselessly irking the other,
and the other threatening inundation.
Crazy, ain’t it ?
The FEAR PORN continues, unabated…
When are people going to wake up to the geopolitical farce between the East and West..?
As of 2023, it is clear that 99% of the nations on Terra Firma are managed by ZOGs – Zionist Owned Governments…
Therefore practically EVERYTHING going on in the geopolitical spectrum has an end purpose of Global Governance…
No site is pumping the faux potential of nuclear war between Russia and the West more than the TRUTHSEEKER.
If nukes eventually do go off, it will be served as a major distraction (and likely the implementation of martial law) if the Talmudic perpe-TRAITORS of the COVID Genocide are close to exposure on a grand scale…
Sooner the JewK cops it the better and you’re right Steve about making comments if they get put up. I seem to cop it my self with some of my comments get taken down lols..;
@Simon smith.You mentioned having a website.Could you direct us to it?
Please spare at least one for Tel Aviv.
It would be antisemitic to leave them out in the cold.
In fact, jews ought to get the first taste of it, still time to adjust the gameplan afterwards, maybe the priorities change.

Just click on my name on the top of this post, as you can with any posters who give website links…or go to https://fakealiensandphonynukes.com/
The website is a number of links I’ve posted to allow people who buy my paperbook to more easily visit them; as opposed to the eBook readers that can go via the embedded links. Irrespective of my book plugging, there are quite a few interesting links that don’t need the overall context my writing gives.
I find the subject of the “shoulder fired” “Davy Crockett” “nuke” particularly absurd…
Unfortunately the excellent documentary “Nuclear Weapons Do Not Exist” has been struck down by YouTube because it contained Channel 4 material – that was the excuse anyway. If anyone finds a full version then please let me know; it was the best documentary out there.
I have been able to upload a shortened version I once downloaded:

It is a quiet recording, so you have to turn the volume up.
Nukes are cowardice: how about you get close to your enemy and face him and take him apart slowly, on all the issues, and not damage 100,000 other types of life in your fit of pique?
to create an atomic tsunami in Northsea the sea
is to low . it would produce more splish+splash .
effective tsunamis have to be created from deep
water . sorry for all the wales + dolphins !
If Oppenheimer disavowed the Atom Bomb, it was because only America had it, and a Commie Jew hates America. He would like the Bomb once Russia had been given the know-how and materials by the Commie US State Department
Let’s kill everything living on this earth. Every military and Rabbi wants to re-create this world to their vision.
