Russia to revive the Soviet project of a giant torpedo

[The SC]

Russia has plans to revive project of development of super-power nuclear torpedoes, Shamil Aliyev, one of Russia’s leading specialist said in an interview with the RIA Novosti news agency.

According to theRIA Novosti, citing the to scientist, in Russia revise the idea of academician Andrei Sakharov to create a super-powerful torpedo with a nuclear warhead.

“Now there is a tendency to return to ideas that were not realized before. Now Sakharov’s views on the production of torpedoes 24 meters in length, 1.5 meters in diameter with a nuclear warhead and a range of 50 kilometers, are being re-examined, ” Shamil Aliyev said.
It is worth recalling that in the Soviet Union were a project of super torpedoes for used against naval bases in the United States, as well as to strike the city located on the coast. The explosion of a bomb could form a giant wave – a tsunami destroyed everything on the coast and even far away from the coastline.

Shamil Aliyev also noted that the idea in the USSR “was not realized because it did not work well, it was just that there was no money”.

If the Russian expert Shamil Aliev Had spoken about 24 meters long, the unmanned submarine status-6 is in the precise specifications of the nuclear torpedo and its specifications are:


Lenght:24m
Diameter :1,6m
Weight:TBC heavy and negatively buoyant
Speed:185 log. 100 kt
Endurance :10,000 km
Max operating depth:1000 m
Cerw :unmanned
Warhead:Nuclear with cobalt shell
Payload :100 Megatons
Power plant :1*nuclear reactor driving a pumpjet
Sensors:long range internal guidance possibility with external update/abort obstacle avoidance sensor


The core of the nuclear torpedo remains the creation of a giant tsunami, and this is what a former Russian army officer under the pseudonym Victor Baranets, told the Daily Telegraph that Moscow has a weapon capable of creating a giant tsunami. He said in an interview with the newspaper Komsomolskaïa Pravda that Americans have the ability to transport Heavy equipment like war planes and fighters to the Russian border, but Moscow is operating in silence near the US beaches and able to wipe out cities such as New York and Miami by creating a nuclear explosion through torpedo to reach waves of 400-500 meters high and 500 kilometers span..

For general knowledge..The US had a similar project called "Project Seal" since WW2:

A small slower stealth version with 10 Megatone should be enough to finish off even aircraft carrier and slow speed make it easey subs to run away a bit far as well.

10000 km range holy shit.

 

[Ultima Thule]

10000 km range holy shit.

misprinted above article says it has range of 50 km @undertakerwwefan

 

[War Thunder]

10000 km range holy shit.

yeah goodluck hoping for a torpedo of 10,000 km range.
It;s like fire and hope for it to reach its destination in 3 weeks and hopefully without hitting some poor fishy on the way and not getting swayed by some tidal waves...
