The True Speed Of Modern Nuclear Weapons

The true scale of modern nuclear weapons shown in our last video did not include the hypersonic speeds of nuclear weapons. Now, in this in-depth documentary, you will see the mind-blowing true speed of these terrifying weapons. This documentary on nuclear weapons also explores the defensive capabilities against ICBMs of countries like the United States and Russia. Submarine-launched missiles like the Trident II can reach Mach 24, delivering multiple warheads, each with destructive power rivaling entire cities. Russia’s Avangard glider maneuvers at Mach 27, making interception nearly impossible. The Kinzhal missile travels at Mach 10, closing in on targets within seconds. Even the autonomous Poseidon torpedo, moving at just 64 miles per hour, evades detection by diving thousands of feet below the surface. Defensive systems such as the S-400 and S-500, as well as the Patriot and Virginia Class submarines, aim to counter these threats, but they offer no absolute shield. Confirming the doctrine of mutually assured destruction.
