00:00 Russia test-fires huge nuclear missile called "Satan-2."
00:03 Russia has successfully launched its "Satan" missile, capable of firing up to 12 nuclear
00:09 warheads at once, Vladimir Putin has claimed. The launch of the Sarmat intercontinental
00:14 ballistic missile will give food for thought for those who try to threaten Russia,
00:18 the Russian president warned. The missile, nicknamed "Satan-2," can fly 6,000 miles,
00:24 carry 16 warheads, and has the potential to destroy an area the size of France.
00:30 It was successfully launched from Plesetsk Cosmodrome in Arkhangelsk Oblast,
00:34 northwestern Russia, according to Russian state media outlet RIA Novosti.
00:39 The missile, nicknamed "Satan-2," can fly 11,000 miles, carry 15 warheads,
00:45 and has the potential to destroy an area the size of France.
00:48 It was successfully launched from Plesetsk Cosmodrome in Arkhangelsk Oblast,
00:54 northwestern Russia, according to Russian state media outlet RIA Novosti.
00:59 Video shows the enormous 115-foot missile being launched from an underground silo,
01:05 triggering an enormous fireball. It traveled almost the entire length of Russia, almost 3,600
01:11 miles in around 15 minutes. The missile landed at Khara Missile Test Range on the Kamchatka
01:17 Peninsula in the far east of the country, according to Russian defense sources.
01:22 Most worryingly, the separate warheads in the "Satan-2" missile are capable of detaching
01:27 from the main 100-ton missile before traveling towards their target at hypersonic speeds.
