<body><p>STORY: :: President Vladimir Putin says Russia has successfully tested a Poseidon nuclear-powered super torpedo</p><p>:: Moscow, Russia</p><p>:: October 29, 2025</p><p>"But that's not all. You should know: yesterday we conducted another test of another promising system. This is the Poseidon unmanned underwater vehicle, also with a nuclear propulsion system. For the first time, we succeeded not only in launching it from a submarine using its booster motor, but also in igniting the nuclear propulsion system, which the vehicle used for a certain period of time. This is a tremendous success."</p><p>"The Poseidon's power significantly exceeds that of even our most advanced intercontinental-range missile, the Sarmat. There's no missile like the Sarmat in the world. It's not yet deployed in Russia, but it will be soon. But the Poseidon is significantly more powerful than the Sarmat. Furthermore, the speed and depth of this unmanned aerial vehicle are unmatched in the world, and it's unlikely to be developed anytime soon, and there are no existing interception methods."</p><p>:: Russian defence ministry</p><p>There are few confirmed details about the Poseidon, named after the ancient Greek god of the sea, but it is essentially a nuclear-capable cross between a torpedo and a drone.</p><p>The animated videos shown in 2018 demonstrate a Poseidon torpedo launched from a submarine reaching targets at sea and on the coast.&nbsp;</p></body>
