Thanks for posting Dennis. I went onboard McCloy when she was tied up alongside us in Portsmouth Harbour. We later entertained several of the crew in the Petty Officers mess and I still have a momento of that visit - the ships Sherrif badge for USS McCloy.

This Massive Russian Sub is Preparing to Launch Nuclear Torpedoes

Russia's Status-6 "Poseidon" torpedo has excited the fears -- or the overactive imaginations -- of Russia's enemies. Calling it is a torpedo is a misnomer. While the precise capabilities of the weapon are mysterious, it appears to be about 80 feet long -- which makes it more like a mini-submarine or an underwater ballistic missile. Poseidon is propelled by a nuclear reactor to a speed of 115 miles per hour and operates at deep depths up to 3,300 feet. It is armed with a massive 100-megaton warhead powerful enough to generate a giant tidal wave to destroy coastal cities.
