The Russian military plans to introduce a up-to-date analogue of the most powerful ballistic missile of all time - the RS-20, or SS-18 Satan by NATO classification.
Minor mistake in the article. The SS-20 is a mobile missile that was withdrawn because of the INF treaty. It has three warheads and a range of 5,000km. The Satan you refer to has the western designation of SS-18 SATAN, not the SS-20 which I think was called SABRE. New missiles of this type will be very useful, both as a deterrent and also as a satellite launcher as they time expire.
So let me get this straight......the USA can't deploy a Missle Shield in Europe and they can't produce any more nuclear missles, however, Russia is FREE to make as many missles as they deem necessary......something doesn't make sense.
Give it a new name. Satan is so last year.
I agree with Vladimir, but also with direct energy weapons
Sierra,you don't seem to have it straight at all. Do some thorough research before you jump on your preconceived perceptions.
It's expired ;)
The best thing would be peace. But since the world is such an evil place these days I belive Russia knows what it has to do. As do we al. Pray for peace all of youl
The ABM sheild that is supposed to be deployed to Romania is useles against the SS-18,this is just another ploy to reduce Russias influence in eastern Euerope,mostly simbolic as their useles against this wheapon. The Russians sell a lot of natural gas & petrolem products to Euerope I don't see them killing off a cash cow in a trade off for a liability like Romania was under the Soveit Union.










As more Satan missiles - as better for Russia and the free world. The satanic countries, like US, UK, Israel, and some NATO members (excluding Spain, Italy and others which do not play key rolls in NATO), should be treated with Satan missiles.
