“Assured unacceptable damage”, or AUD capable Russian submarine weapons system is now being advertised to send shivers down NATO spine, effectively advising the latter to cease pursuing useless war materiel production and provocative war games as they are already looking more stupid when the rest of the world have already declared they are tired of all forms of war and destruction.
It’s time to put those toys away and for good.
NATO is basically fighting against its own shadow as Vladimir Putin has successfully avoided multiple attempts of provocations, from economic sanctions to false flag killing of an opposition figure at home.
The more outsiders tried to paint the man in bad light, the greater his popularity becomes, not only right from his own backyard but also from abroad.
So, when his military generals “unwittingly” allowed the video capture of some papers with schematic diagrams detailing a highly sophisticated system that could deliver a guaranteed level of unacceptable damage to its target, they’re basically saying,
“Stop right now, you stupid fools. You are not dealing with some chickenshit amateurs anymore.”
‘Assured unacceptable damage’: Russian TV accidentally leaks secret ‘nuclear torpedo’ design
The Kremlin has confirmed “some secret data” was accidentally leaked when Russian TV stations broadcast material apparently showing blueprints from a nuclear torpedo, designed to be used against enemy coastal installations.
During President Vladimir Putin’s meeting with military officials in Sochi, where the development of Russia’s military capabilities were being discussed, a number of TV crews were able to capture footage of a paper that was certainly not meant for public viewing.

The presentation slide titled “Ocean Multipurpose System: Status-6” showed some drawings of a new nuclear submarine weapons system. It is apparently designed to bypass NATO radars and any existing missile defense systems, while also causing heavy damage to “important economic facilities” along the enemy’s coastal regions.
The footnote to the slide stated that Status-6 is intended to cause “assured unacceptable damage” to an adversary force. Its detonation “in the area of the enemy coast” would result in “extensive zones of radioactive contamination” that would ensure that the region would not be used for “military, economic, business or other activity” for a “long time.”
According to the blurred information provided in the slide, the system represents a massive torpedo, designated as “self-propelled underwater vehicle,” with a range of up to 10 thousand kilometers and capable of operating at a depth of up to 1,000 meters.
It remains unclear if such a system is indeed being developed or the slide was presented as just one of the options the Russian military could hypothetically offer. However, according to the leaked paper, the weapons system could be developed by the Rubin design bureau for marine engineering, and may potentially be delivered using nuclear-powered “Project 09852” and “Project 09851” submarines.
Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed that major TV channels had leaked some classified data on Tuesday following the meeting in Sochi.
“It is true some secret data got into the shot, and it was subsequently deleted,” Peskov said on Wednesday. “We hope that this won’t happen again.”
During Tuesday’s meeting Putin stressed that Russia will counter NATO’s US-led missile shield program through new “strike systems capable of penetrating any missile defenses.”
“Over the past three years, companies of the military-industrial complex have created and successfully tested a number of prospective weapons systems that are capable of performing combat missions in a layered missile defense system,” Putin said. “Such systems have already begun to enter the military this year. And now we are talking about development of new types of weapons.”

Rest assured though that this won’t develop into a new arms race as the military industrial complex and NATO would like it to be for one single reason, i.e. they don’t have the financial capability to do so. That’s been taken care of in the early years of the battle.
So, will they kick the can one more time by raising the federal debt borrowing limit once again?
In the not so distant future, we do hope that these people will finally see the folly of what they’re doing and allow peace and prosperity to reign at last.
is it a leak or is it a subtle Warning, the USA is never subtle only obviously thuggish, when George Bush said either you are with us or with the terrorists just how BLATENT can you be, the Russian are always diplomatic, I am afraid it is one of those ingredients that the USA never had.
One should pay serious attention to the word “extensive zones”.
Extensive zones means several HUNDREDS of kilometers, and not simply “tens” of kilometers , when a “common” nuclear weapon is detonated against a common target – a big city, for example.
That’s the meaning of ” unacceptable” damage.
Take in mind that , after a preemptive attack which supposedly may destroy the vast majority of the enemy’s counter attacking weaponry , the aggressor surely believes that the enemy wouldn’t have enough destructive power to retaliate with ” unacceptable” destruction.
That’s the doctrine of ” surprise attack can win” .
And that’s the ongoing thinking in US doctrine: they think they can win.
Therefore , the destruction of a few US cities , in order to “win” a nuclear war , may be considered an “acceptable” damage, as it wouldn’t threaten the survivability of the nation as a whole.
Now , let’s go back to the ” extensive” areas.
Think about it : a submarine robot can carry a payload much larger than a ICBM , perhaps a few TENS of megatons , rather than the usual 0,7 to 2,0 megatons per ICBM warhead.
But here is the wild card :
Once detonated at large in the ocean , it can generate a massive MEGA tsunami , some 500 m high waves.
That potentially can wash away and sweep inland regions up to 1,500km , at a littoral width of some hundreds of km.
In short word, some three underwater 20-30 megaton blasts could sweep away entire US east cost , deep inland.
that would be an unacceptable damage which would refrain US from surprise-attacking Russia.
