as the russians would put it

```THE NUCLEAR ENGINE TEST WAS A RESOUNDING SUCCESS```

christ almighty what the fuck

why not own up to your fuckup

I would have much more respect

I understand there's an arms race

just own the fuck up jeez

because russo pride

pride is ok until it's foolish

then i lose respect

They have a long history of foolish pride

Putin basically runs russia like it's still the USSR after all.

tbh

most east euro countries would behave the same in this situation

probably.

the foolish pride of post soviet spectres are still lurking

my god look at thhat thing

I bet the american and chinks have thheir own variants

that explosion vid is pretty impressive

that looks like a scram jet nuclear suborbital ship

some sci fi shit righht there

I need a bigger picture of that

it looks nice

Apparently it was a nuclear powered cruise missile which American's gave up on because it didn't really make sense.

i would assume it's hahrd to keep the thign stable without water

unless it's some inner water closedloop system

that uses airflow to cool

Fuel efficiency is so good now that wanting to power it with a nuclear reactor, it's pretty pointless and needlessly risky.

well if it malfuctions in suborbital space and reentries

We have drones that fly for 24hr on just regular jet fuel.

you noow have a GOD ROD even if the warhead doesn't detonate

even if the engine itself doesnt go critical

lol
