The 10 Most Powerful Missiles in the World

  1. SS-N-30 Russian warships let fly 26 of these cruise missiles on October 7, 2017. They were sent to Syrian rebel targets located 1,000 miles from the warships located in the Caspian Sea. The Pentagon provided the name for these almost unknown missiles, as they were a surprise even to those who keep a regular, well-trained eye on Russian and its military. The attack is being viewed as a kind of calling card to the rest of the world that Russia’s new missiles have taken their place amongst the most advanced in existence. The missiles completed the objectives of striking 11 targets including a terrorist training camp, command centers, armament, oil, and munitions storage, and ammunition and explosive producing plants. Though exact statistics are obviously unavailable, the missiles demonstrated that they are similar to the Tomahawks used in combat successfully by Great Britain and the United States. 2. LGM-30 Minuteman III ICBM This intercontinental ballistic missile is one part of the

What Is the Difference Between a Hydrogen Bomb and an Atomic Bomb?

Image
 A hydrogen bomb and an atomic bomb are both types of nuclear weapons, but the two devices are very different from each other. In a nutshell, an atomic bomb is a fission device, while a hydrogen bomb uses fission to power a fusion reaction. In other words, an atomic bomb can be used as a trigger for a hydrogen bomb. Atomic Bomb An atomic bomb or A-bomb is a nuclear weapon that explodes due to the extreme energy released by nuclear fission. For this reason, this type of bomb is also known as a fission bomb. The word "atomic" isn't strictly accurate since it's just the nucleus of the atom that is involved in fission (its protons and neutrons), rather than the entire atom or its electrons. A material capable of fission (fissile material) is given supercritical mass, while is the point at which fission occurs. This can be achieved by either compressing sub-critical material using explosives or by shooting one part of a sub-critical mass into another one. The fissile mater

Top 10 Attack Submarines

  1.  Seawolf class  (USA)      The boats of the Seawolf class are the most advanced but also the most expensive hunter-killer submarines in the world. These submarines were intended to restore the technological edge which the US Navy had enjoyed over the Soviets from 1945 until the mid 1980s, when espionage and the cynical trading practices of some US allies somewhat eroded it.    The S eawolf class boats were intended to seek and destroy the latest Soviet ballistic missile submarines, such as  Typhoon class , and latest attack submarines such as  Akula class .      Initially 12 boats of the class were planned. However these advanced submarines were too pricey even for the United States to build and maintain on the post-Cold War era budget. Eventually production was stopped with only three Seawolf class submarines built. All of these boats are currently in service. The US Navy switched to much cheaper design of  Virginia class  attack submarines.      The Seawolf class submarines are

10 most powerful guns in the world

  10. Kalashnikov AK-47 Kalashnikov AK-47, popularly known as just AK-47, was one of the most used guns during World War-II. Kalashnikov AK-47 could fire 580 rounds per minute, and it has an effective range of 400 to 800m (here ‘m’ means ‘meter’). This gun is very popular at present because of its lightweight and its resistance to bad weather. It is one of the few guns which can fire perfectly even after submerging completely in the water. The manufacturing cost is also very less compared to other powerful guns as it has only eight moving parts. @Wikipedia 9. Heckler and Koch, MG4 MG 43 Machine Gun @Wikipedia Hecker and Koch, a German company, created this beast. It is a 5.56 mm belt-fed machine gun. It is highly accurate, which is why it is called Perfect Killer; it never misses the target. It was developed in 1990 but gained popularity in 2000. MG4 MG 43 Machine Gun can shoot 775 to 885 rounds per minute. MG4 MG 43 Machine Gun has an effective range of 1000 meters. It can work fine i
