As long as this world exists, for so much time a person is busy creating an increasingly sophisticated way of destroying and destroying life around him. And it seems that no force can stop this arms race.
Instructions
Step 1
The most destructive type of weapon, apart from nuclear weapons, is the Smerch multiple launch rocket system, developed back in the Soviet Union in 1987. It will take a little more than 30 seconds to let in all 12 barrels. Covering a distance of 90 km, its 300 mm shells are capable of destroying all life on an area of 67 hectares. Several modern improvements have increased its destructive power and hitting accuracy. The shells are equipped with a flight control system. They successfully oppose infantry and armored vehicles, they can throw anti-tank mines, creating a minefield under the enemy's nose. So far no one has such destructive power.
Step 2
The Soviet Union also designed a rocket that has no analogues in the world today. According to secret documents, she passed as a Voivode, later the Americans christened her "Satan". The SS-18 missile is the fourth generation of intercontinental ballistic missiles. It weighs 211 tons and can carry 10 detachable warheads (with a total weight of up to 10 tons) over a distance of 16,000 km. Its combat equipment allows you to break through any possible obstacles on the way, even through a thermonuclear explosion of an atomic bomb or electromagnetic pulses that disable electronics. "Satan" (an unsurpassed anti-missile system) and its latest modifications, is designed mainly for a retaliatory "deep" strike.
Step 3
The most powerful non-nuclear weapon is considered to be volumetric explosion ammunition (BOV). When an explosive device is activated, a cloud of atomized chemical compounds is released, exploding when combined with oxygen. At the same time, a large amount of heat energy is released at the epicenter of the explosion, without the formation of a funnel, and a zone of low pressure is created outside it, due to a strong rarefaction of air (up to 0.15 atmospheres). Everything around it seems to fall into the stream of a huge vacuum cleaner, it is impossible to sit out in leaky shelters, since the blast wave "penetrates" everywhere, and does not go around obstacles. The blow "spreads" in a horizontal plane with such force that it can detonate not only mines, but also human lungs.
Step 4
An equally powerful weapon of mass destruction called "The Rods of God" is under development. The destructive force is the kinetic energy of six-meter tungsten rods launched from a satellite and reaching a maximum speed at the earth's surface, equal to 12 km / s. The destructive power is identical to a nuclear explosion.
