Vladimir Putin in a new and subtle move has sent fears of World War III to the rest of Europe as he unveiled his new terrifying nuclear submarine.
The submarine—hulking Khabarovsk—is built to carry a doomsday weapon capable of unleashing a radioactive tidal wave.
The new monster is equipped to fire Russia’s notorious Poseidon nuclear drone at Western coastlines.
The submarine’s launch took place in Severodvinsk in Russia’s far north, closely observed by defence minister Andrei Belousov.
‘The heavy nuclear-powered missile cruiser Khabarovsk is being launched from the renowned Sevmash shipyard,’ he said.
‘Carrying underwater weapons and robotic systems, it will enable us to successfully secure Russia’s maritime borders and protect its national interests in various parts of the world’s oceans,’ he said.

Putin in his words last week, said that the Poseidon nuclear-powered drone – capable of carrying an atomic warhead – had been successfully tested.
The heavy monster ‘special-purpose’ submarine is designed to carry a dozen of the deadly new-style torpedoes powered by their own nuclear reactors.
‘The power of the Poseidon far exceeds that of our most advanced intercontinental ballistic missile, the Sarmat [aka Satan-2],’ said Putin.
‘There is nothing like it anywhere else in the world.’ He threatened: ‘There are no means of intercepting it.’
