Russian President Vladimir Putin (black vest) witnessed the military parade in St Petersburg, Russia, today.
Russian news agencies quoted a statement from the Ministry of Defense saying that testing of Belgorod, the first submarine capable of carrying Poseidon torpedoes, is underway and testing of new weapons systems is nearly complete.
Putin once said that hypersonic weapons were the first area where the US had to follow Russia in the history of the defense industry.
