The most bizarre weapon? That is to use nuclear bomb to blow up your own weapon system. The key is that this system is used to protect and defend yourself! Someone was shocked: "Nuclear bombs blow themselves? What weapon is this?" That's right, that's it. He is Russia's A-135/235 strategic anti-missile system.
: Russia's A-235 system was upgraded from the A-135 anti-missile system in the Soviet era. Why did the Soviet Union build this A-135 defense system? It is because KGB reported a terrible thing to the Soviet senior management: the United States has about 60-100 nuclear missiles, aimed at Moscow at all times, and each of these 60-100 nuclear missiles has 3-6 sub-guided warheads. In other words, the United States can launch hundreds of nuclear warheads to Moscow at any time.
Figure shows the 53T6 interceptor bomb in the A-135 anti-missile system.
In addition to being shocked, the Soviet Union's top leaders decided to build an irrefutable anti-missile defense system for the Soviet Union. The plan and structure of the system have been kept confidential before. It was not until Russia's independence that some information and materials were gradually disclosed, which was well known to the world. The biggest feature of the A-135 system is: launching nuclear warheads and intercepting nuclear warheads. In other words, when an enemy nuclear missile strikes, the nuclear warhead is launched to detonate on its own head, and then destroy the enemy nuclear missile.
This system is mainly composed of three major parts. The first part is the 51T6 and 53T6 anti-missile interceptor missiles deployed in the suburbs of Moscow; the second part is the Dunay-3U large search radar as the general early warning and command system, and the DON-2 large fire control radar (also called the Donhe-2 radar). Why are these radars described as large? Because they are indeed big enough, each radar looks like a small hill, and the phased array radar covers the pyramid-shaped building and stands on the ground very spectacular.

is an early warning radar system used to track and detect incoming missiles at the border. These early warning radar models are different, such as the "Dnieper" radar warning system in Balkash region in Kazakhstan, the "Volga" radar warning system in Balanovizi region in Belarus , the "Volga" radar warning system in Kaliningrad , and the "Voloninri DM" radar warning system in Olsk region, and other 12 systems that are normally put into operation. At that time, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, and Belarus all belonged to the Soviet Union, so the Soviet Union could deploy the early warning radar of the anti-missile system in these franchised republics to achieve a greater depth of defense. The facilities of these three parts are connected to each other, forming a huge strategic anti-missile system that can monitor and defend against a vast area of East Asia to Europe. It is the largest single-uniform missile defense system in the world. Since the Soviet Union was in the Cold War period when it was built, Western missiles pose a great threat. If the point-to-point interception method of kinetic energy interception is used, it will inevitably consume too much energy and the interception efficiency is low.
So the Soviet Union used the method of surface killing to intercept incoming missiles. Among them, the 51T6 missile uses nuclear warheads. When the enemy intercontinental nuclear missile attacks, it can be launched into outer space, detonate its own nuclear bomb, and produce strong electromagnetic interference , which may cause the enemy's invasion missile to fail. A total of 16 such missiles were created. There is also the 53T6 anti-missile interceptor, which also uses a nuclear warhead, but has a lower launch height and intercepts in the atmosphere. When the enemy's incoming missile enters the atmosphere above the city's head, the 53T6 missile will be launched and then detonate nuclear bombs over the city's head, thereby destroying groups of incoming enemy nuclear missiles.
Use a few 53T6 nuclear missiles to destroy the enemy's incoming nuclear missiles in batches. If you punch yourself, you can avoid the enemy's attack by hundreds of punches. This idea undoubtedly makes sense. However, its practice of using nuclear bombs to bomb itself and then intercepting enemy nuclear bombs is indeed very strange, and it can be regarded as a great wonder of world military technology.From the perspective of effect, the effect of 53T6 is definitely good. After all, the nuclear bomb is not an ordinary bomb , it does not trigger the fuse, nor does it have explosive explosion. They have complex fission, or fusion reaction programs. If these nuclear warheads are destroyed with nuclear bombs, then they will not be able to work normally. If their complex internal structure is slightly damaged, the nuclear bomb will not be detonated.
Now, Russia has upgraded the Soviet A-135 system to the A-235 system, but its roughly intercepting method has not changed and is still the most magical anti-missile defense system in the world.
