50calibre: The Russians have a history of creating monstrous weapons. While the US focuses more on smaller precision weapons, Russia couldn't care about precision, they create monstrous weapons to strike fear & take every thing out.

The Tsar Bomb is the largest every man made explosion, the USSR initially planned to make it a 100Mgt yield but later had to reduce it to 50Mgt for fear of what it might not only do to the people testing it, but what it might do to the planet. Yet the explosion was so large (about 1000+ times larger than Hiroshima or Nagasaki) it caused a minor earthquake.

This struck fear into the Americans, that the UN had to meet to start talks on Nuclear proliferation treaty.

The Topol-M is another Russian monstrosity, this beast is able to deliver enough war heads to take out a sizeable chunk of any country. Its so terrifying they nicknamed it Satan

Mrkuvuki: Very informative thread..To create takes a lot more time than to destroy...
Where's the LockHeed AC 130 and the DR 50 sniper rifle, the F2000 machine gun and the F--22 Raptor jet ?
Oh I get it now ,the ones that have shaped History..
you ve got it wrong bro. The AC130 you pointed out is only armed for self defence as it chief duty is cargo and troops transport, the AC130 is just the armed up variant of the C130s which we have in operation in Nigeria. Transport planes are armed but that does not immediately make them attack aircraft, the Russian ilyushin IL, the globemaster, the antonov are all example of transport aircraft that have been armed up for self defence. One would have preferred to see the AK47 there this outdated rifle have killed more men than any rifle made by man. It has seem action in major conflicts all over the world. As for the f20 raptor, that jet is still finding it place in history as it is still a recent development..
Ps. A- attack, R- reconnaissance, B- bomber C- cargo and so on.

Idrismusty97: Op this is the most powerful weapon in the world! The AK 47. Every year an estimate 300,000-500,000 die from shots fired from this deadly gun. 200,000 more remained injured. This is even more deadly than the atomic bomb. That is mass destruction too! Only in slow motion. www.jasonlefkowitz.net/2007/08/the_most_danger/

To wipe out a whole nation with thousands of Ur "Aks" will take how many months..
One of those nukes will kill millions in minutes...

50 Calibre specifications:

Rate of fire 485–635 rounds/min (M2HB),750–850 rounds/min (AN/M2)1,200 rounds/min (AN/M3).

Muzzle velocity 2,910 ft/s (890 m/s)
Effective firing range1,800 m (2,000 yd)

Maximum firing range 6,800 m (7,400 yd).


Those specs of 50 caliber that fires almost 1000 rounds/minutes are those those rotates,having multiple exhausts...

50 caliber and Ak 47 bullet in pics....now compare.

Sile12: 12. Nimitz Class Aircraft Carrier.
With twin nuclear reactors that don’t need refueling for 23 years and bays that are capable of holding up to 130 F/A-18 Hornets just the appearance of this carrier in any region is enough to influence global politics.

grin grin grin

Sile12: 17. Airborne laser.
Star Wars fans might like this one. You see, The Galactic Empire had the Death Star, and now the American Empire has the YAL-1A Airborne Laser.Where the Death Star was a moon sized space station with a planet destroying super laser, the YAL-1A is just a 747 with a really big laser mounted on the front.Designed to shoot down enemy ICBMs from hundreds of miles away, the YAL-1A is revolutionary in its ability to destroy a high speed moving target at amassive distance instantly.Picture this scenario. The YAL-1A is flying hundreds of miles away from the battlefield over friendly airspace. Troops on the ground call in an airstrike and radio GPS coordinates to the YAL-1A, which then immediately fires its laser delivering extremely precise killing power on target at the speed of light. No waiting, no warning.

Some fools still think US can be touched by wannabe Russia. . . SMH!

As impressive as all these may seem, it will be nice to note that these are the ones they are willing to reveal to the public!

Be wary of the UNKNOWN! lipsrsealed
