Russia builds huge nuclear missile depot in Severomorsk
Russia has started building storages for more than 100 Bulava missiles some 120 kilometers from the border to Norway.
One Bulava missile can carry up to ten nuclear warheads with a yield of 150 kt each. If the warheads are stored together with the missiles, or in a separated storage nearby, it will be up to 1,000 nuclear bombs with a total yield of 150 Mt.
