We've Seen President Obama's "The Beast", But Russian President's Car is the Real Bomb!

According to reports, a rocket cannot penetrate Russian President, Vladimir Putin's official car. Details of the new limousine used to transport the President was reportedly said to be far more secure than the 'The Beast' - the nickname of the limousine used to transport U.S President Obama.

The armoured car has a 12-centimeter-thick titanium plated roof that is so strong a T-72 tank can drive over it without causing any real damage, sources said. Its windows are made of glass that will withstand a direct hit from a rocket-propelled grenade, while its wheels automatically turn into caterpillar tracks when going over rough terrain.

Officials at the factory where the limousine was assembled were so confident in the level of safety provided by the vehicle that they placed the designers inside the car while soldiers shot rocket-propelled grenades at it — a tradition that dates back to the Stalin era.

The Kremlin official noted that the car’s occupants could survive a small nuclear attack, but only if the wind was blowing in a certain direction. He however declined to elaborate, saying reporters would be allowed to ask questions in future

An official state car is a car used by a government to transport its head of state or head of government in an official capacity, which may also be used occasionally to transport other members of the government or visiting dignitaries from other countries. A few countries bring their own official state car for state visits to other countries. It also may serve as an automotive symbol of the head of state and their country. Part of the criteria for an official state car is to have adequate security, capability and stateliness for its duty. A limousine, executive car or sport utility vehicle is usually selected.

Did I read that the roof is 12cm thick? That is intimidating! Though the pictures do not in any way show that.

Which car?Where is it?

You lying liars lying from your lying liar holes of lies.

The President of Russia is usually seen in an armoured Mercedes S-Class[69] stretched limousine. The first such model, a W140 variant, was purchased for Boris Yeltsin and has been superseded by a W221 model. The limousine is bulletproof, has solid rubber tires, and carries an array of communications equipment.[70] On state visits, it is airlifted to the destination using an Il-76.

Historically, presidents Yeltsin and Medvedev were driven in Mercedes-Benz S-Class limousines stretched and armored by the Belgian Carat Duchatelet, while President Putin prefers Mercedes-Benz Guard limousines. For President Medvedev's inauguration a special Carat Duchatelet limousine with raised roof was ordered.

The presidential motorcade will usually be escorted by police motorcycle outriders and a series of support vehicles including, but not limited to, the Mercedes G-Class, Mercedes E-Class, standard S-Class models, Mercedes SLK-Class, BMW 5-Series and Volkswagen Caravelle. Generals and officials of the armed forces drive Volgas which mostly have other engines from better cars and other technical modifications.

Under the USSR, the General Secretary of the Communist Party was always driven in a Soviet-built ZIL-41047,[71] escorted by Chaika models. Two of the Zil limousines are still maintained in the Kremlin garage and occasionally seen in use by the military parades on the Day of Victory.[72]

The exact definition of an "official state car" is extremely blurred in Russia. Thanks to clandestine ("grey"wink and "black" acquisition of emergency light and siren kits by state officials of all levels, businessmen, celebrities and even their family members, they are likely to number in the thousands. That, their drivers' complete disregard for traffic regulations in heavily congested streets, and several high-profile accidents involving them followed by apparent aggressive police cover-ups have caused the rise of the Society of Blue Buckets.

Please you guys should stop this blind worship of Russia.The thing is you guys are new to the propaganda game.There are a million reasons Russia will still remain behind the U.S. In all ramifications.A million,I can list,but that would bore even the blind who knows who's the real boss.
