Russia has unveiled images of their first super-heavy thermonuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missile -- RS-28 Sarmat -- which will come with up to 16 nuclear warheads and has the power to destroy area as large as Tamil Nadu in a single blast.

The Independent reports that Russian President Vladimir Putin wants to replace country's good old array of SS-18 Satan weapons with new generation RS-28 Sarmat super-missiles.

The Sarmat is being developed at the Makeyev Rocket Design Bureau, who also declassified the first few images of the missile on Sunday.

says that the Sarmat will weigh at least 100 tonnes, feature heavy payload capacity of up to 10 tonnes and might be able to carry either 10 heavy or 16 light nuclear warheads.

The report on Independent also says that Samrat will make the bombs that killed hundreds of thousands of people in Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II look like 'popguns'.
