Russia new wonder weapon?
 
I just caught the tail end of a report on CNN regarding Russia's new wonder weapon or something.
Any body catch that report or know of any links, more or less just curious on what it was?

Thanks

"Iscander-E"? "Coala"? Where are a lot of new "wonder weapon" now in Russia. This is marketing mostly believe me.

They probably keep their real wonder weapons totally secret.

Something I read on Fark was that Pravda was mentioning how the Russians are developing a new missile system that can evade the current US missile defense system.

This thread will soon degrade into a flamewar, so I'll leave you all with that -- go to Fark and Pravda.ru

I gotta go now, too many wisecracks are flooding my brain at once. must. rest. no. more. comments.

Maybe they should be looking for a wonder weapon that will let them find religious extremists in Chechnya instead, the US is Russia ally now....
