One week after Russia test-flew the nuclear-powered Burevestnik missile for 15 hours, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that the nuclear-powered underwater drone Poseidon has also been tested successfully, the Barents Observer reports.
“For the first time, we were able to not only launch it from a submarine using its booster engine, but also to start the nuclear power plant, where the apparatus operated for a certain period of time,” Putin said.
