What is Russia’s Poseidon nuclear drone and could it wipe out the UK in a radioactive tsunami? | Euronews

“This thing is at least 1.5 m in diameter and weighs tens of tons, so it’s carrying a very big warhead”.

However, the three experts Euronews Next spoke to all cast serious doubts on the claim made by Russian TV anchor Kiselyov that Poseidon s warhead packed a yield of 100 megatons.

Hambling called the claim “simply insane – that would be the biggest warhead ever deployed”.

“I mean, with the current Russian regime, who knows? It’s possible that they might have the hubris to build something like that, but it certainly is grotesquely gigantic,” he said.
