Rumors About Russian Space Based Nuclear Anti-Satellite Weapon

SPACE WEAPON

by Brian Wang

An anti-satellite nuclear weapon would likely be something that would generate an electromagnetic pulse.

In 2018, there was talk about Russia developing a submarine to deliver a 100 megaton nuclear bomb to generate a 300 foot tsunami wave.

Russia as a military and economic country is basically like Saudi Arabia and Pakistan combined but a Pakistan with 40 to 100 times the nuclear capability. Russia and Saudi Arabia have comparable levels of combined oil and gas production.

For decades, Russia has had advanced nuclear weapon capability and has had all kinds of nuclear weapon concepts, space capability and hypersonic missile concepts.

The US-military industrial complex would want to maximize concern about Russia to justify more funding for Ukraine. The Senate passed a $95 billion bill to provide military funding and support to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
