Putin unveils next-gen nuclear-powered cruise missiles, says reactors go live in seconds President Vladimir Putin announced the development of a new generation of nuclear-powered cruise missiles, saying their compact reactors can be brought online in seconds — far faster than conventional systems — and that the missiles will travel at around three times the speed of sound, with plans for them to reach hypersonic performance in the future. "For normal reactors, it takes hours and sometimes days to become fully active. And so using this new system, we are creating new types of weapons," Putin explained.Subscribe to @SputnikInt
