Russia test nuclear missile powerful which enough to destroy the UK, Texas or France

    Russia is set to test its biggest ever nuclear missile which is powerful enough to destroy the UK, Texas or France with a single strike. The so-called Satan 2 intercontinental ballistic missile could deliver about a dozen nuclear warheads of 40 megatons - 2,000 times as powerful as the atom bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. President Vladimir Putin's Defence Ministry plans to test two RS-28 Sarmat super nukes at the remote Plesetsk Cosmodrome before the end of the year, it was reported.

Russia claims the missiles can beat any defences as it seeks to replace its arsenal of SS-18 Satan weapons. The Satan 2 missile was displa...
