Deranged Rhino Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 The Soviets, er, I mean Russians, claim portions of a top secret document were accidentally aired on television. And if you believe it was an accident, I got a bridge to sell you. The Kremlin has admitted that Russian television accidentally showed secret plans for a nuclear torpedo system on air.Two Kremlin-controlled channels, NTV and Channel One, showed a military official looking at a confidential document containing drawings and details of a weapons system called Status-6, designed by Rubin, a nuclear submarine construction company based in St Petersburg. The nuclear torpedoes, to be fired by submarines, would create “zones of extensive radioactive contamination making them unsuitable for military or economic activity for a long period”, says the document, which is clearly visible in the footage for several seconds. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/nov/12/russian-tv-stations-broadcast-secret-nuclear-torpedo-plans
