Vladimir Putin's nuclear tsunami: It's called Poseidon - a giant torpedo that could travel thousands of miles undetected before swamping cities with radioactive waves. No wonder fears over the Russian threat are growing

#11  Okay, no mast. So, it's just a big quiet-ish torpedo? At least call it "unmanned suicide tsunami submarine" or somesuch.

#4  ...Keep this in mind: apparently the most fiendishly capable weapon the Soviets Russians can come up with is a megaton-size nuke on an unmanned drone sub. This in turn should tell you a LOT about what they think of our air and space defenses, but it also tells you that they are that desperate to counter us that they're actually trying this.
