Russia is developing a secret nuke train, which can travel 1,500 miles in a day towards Putin's enemies before launching rockets.
The trains, packed with ballistic missiles, will be disguised as ordinary passenger or freight trains, making them virtually impossible to identify.
Chilling test footage shows the trains can be stopped in their tracks at a moment's notice to deploy the huge rocket launchers.
It sounds like something from a James Bond film, but the trains are one step closer to being put into use, following a successful test launch on missiles for the Barguzin 'railway-based combat rocket system', carried out at the Plesetsk cosmodrome two weeks ago.
The stealth mobile weapons platforms, which carries six Yars or Yars-M thermonuclear ICBMs and their command units, are expected to come into operation between 2018 and 2020.
The menacing missiles carry four huge 250 kiloton warheads each, and have a range as long as 6,800 miles.
