Soviet Russia's Cold War Secret Weapon Revealed

At the end of World War II, the world was hardly at peace. Relationships between countries were rocky at best. The United States, Britain and the Societ Union has a shakey alliance to begin with.

Both Britain and the U.S. were afraid that the Soviets were laying plans to take over all of Eastern Europe, and that western Europe would be influenced. The Societs were afraid that Germany would become a possible threat again.

They also wanted to spread communist ideology through out the world. This began the struggle known as the Cold War.

Marshall Plan

In 1947-1948, the Marshall Plan gave aid to western Europe from the United States. Eastern Europe was firmly entrenched in communism, thanks to the Soviets.

Between 1948- 1953, was a busy time during the Cold War.

The Soviets attempted to blockade Western-held areas of West Berlin. While the United States and their allies in Europe successfully formed NATO. The Soviets ended the U.S. monopoly on the atomic bomb, by exploding one of their own. Chinese communists took over power in China.

It was rounded out by the Soviets supporting the North Korean of South Korea in 1950, which kicked off the Korean War.

Space Race

The space race was the ultimate measuring contest between the United States and the Soviet Union.

The biggest failure for the Soviets is they did not succeed in landing a man on the moon first. In fact, the same day the United States put a probe on the moon, their probe landing failed.

The wide gap between the United States and the Soviets was a thorn in their side. The USSR did not want the Americans to get their satellites.

Both countries were prepared for anti-satellite operations. But it was so important to the USSR, that they wanted to arm one. Why? To see if it worked.

Space Cannon

The answer was the "Almaz," which had everything, spy equipment, radar, and a cannon, 37-pound 14.5mm R-23M.

It was capable of firing 5,000 rounds a minute with an accuracy of up to a mile. There was one glaring issue. They needed a way to actually aim the cannon.

The space station would have to rotate to aim it. While they wanted a manned mission, they did not include life support.

Instead, they combined the R-23M and the Soyuz, naming it Salyut, launching it in 1971. In 1975, the Soviets tested the cannon, but no one knows what actually happened.

If given more time, Soviet Russia could have had a super weapon that would have easily changed the course of history. Fortunately, it never came to fruition. How many other secret weapons are there that we don't know about? Do you think the U.S. has weapons the public can't even imagine? Let us know in the comments below.

    1. Our smart DUMBOCRAP GROUP has already opened the country to nearly 1 million, soon to be 2million walkers from all over the globe,,,they are carrying "KILLER DRUGS", SICK PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT BEING CHECKED FOR ANY ILLNESSES and then being flown all over USA with GOD ONLY KNOWS WHAT ILLNESSES!! THIS IS THE ACTIONS OF TOTAL STUPIDITY OF THE DUMBOCRABS!! I WONDER JUST HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE STILL PROUD THAT THEY VOTED FOR THE COLLUSIVE PARTY?

  1. Unless the DUMBOCRABS are defeated, America will crumble, rapidly and totally! Peloser and Scummer are two of the worst, but many of their "students" are very close behind, and America, as we have known it, is on the verge of toppling if they are not stopped. As things stand, Biden is done, which will put kkaammmmy at the "top" and her "Helpers" will be Peloser as VP, and Scummer as Speaker!! God, will America topple in a hurry!!! Thanks to the DIRTY DUMBOCRABS, we are about to lose everything that we have enjoyed all of our lives! Our financial standing is toppling, and we are being "SOLD" by those that are too STUPID to see exactly where they have USA headed! The thing that they have lost sight of, along with their "SMARTS" is that the America that is coming, is the America that THEIR HEIRS will inherit, and that will have to "PAY" for their EVIL, DECEPTIVE, UNCARING LEADERSHIP!!!

    1. Hold those feelings in check for awhile. We (the Americans who are still fighting) have not given up on our America! By the same system that put the Democrats in total power in 2021, we will begin to set the process in order to remove them from office ASAP! The midterm elections have started with local GOP WINS AT STATE LEVEL. These will give us a hold on to controlling the Senate and the Congress. Pelosi and her minions of disaster will be too busy dodging political bullets to mess with anything in DC. All this will lead up to the 2024 elections which the Republicans willl control. MAGA!!

  2. It’s damn great if we do but it’s sorta strange as we just love to post all our newest weapons including aircraft we do this for some stupid reason as it never causes other countries to fall back but start a new planning of their own.

    1. WE USED to have parades and displays, much like the soviets, but NEVER of our (nor the soviet's) newest, just our (and their) Already-Known-Used Weapons fto promote Jingoism. But after trying to buy our standing in the world without action (just making baseless threats and then paying for hostages), we have been told by the globalist left that we should be ashamed of being the greatest nation on earth. LGB-FJB

      1. and YOU think the globalist's are not sent here to "infiltrate" - our educational system if FULL of these infiltrators - don't be SO gullible!!! The media will tell you ANYTHING to dumb us down...or make us think we are...

  3. Let's hope we have weapons no one knows about. One thing that irritates me is we tell everybody what we have and what we are doing. Defense systems and weaponry should be kept secret.

  4. The US has many weapons that nobody knows about. They haven't invested in Groom Lake for the fun of it, there are multiple weapons that are hidden until the military wants them known....

  5. Given that the Soviet Union and China stole a lot of our technology through spys and defectors, no doubt that there are a plthora of advance weapons that the public doesn't and will never know about until we can justify to use them.

    1. That is hopeful but with the people in office today would possibly know and tell everyone they know.

  6. I hope, pray and will ;pay taxes to enable OUR military and science researchers to be at the TOP of discovery of ways to keep US and us SAFE!!! Be it defensive OR even OFFENSIVE equipment!!!

  7. It would be foolish of the U.S. if we were not constantly developing new and better offensive weapons.

    1. With how the DUM<BOCRABS feel, WE MUSt TURN IN ALL WEAPONRY!! Let our FEARLESS LEADERSHIP TAKE The REINS!!! HE IS there to lEAD US<<<<REMEMBER? HE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO WAlk and CHEW GUM AT THE SAME TIME,,,,BUT HE IS OUR LEADER?????

  8. We don’t know what the US is working on at Area 51. The only ones that know are the ones working there. And they can’t tell anybody. They take it to their graves. So who knows?

  9. if we ever had them that jerk in the whouse would have made a deal with China to give them to them
