Forget Nukes; Russia’s Been Building Nightmarish Super Weapon Technology

6. Catamaran Hovercraft Destroyer

This is not your parent’s destroyer. It’s a Bora-class guided-missile hovercraft, capable of converting from a catamaran mode to a hovercraft as necessary. This allows this yet-unnamed ship to go places other destroyers cannot at an estimated speed of 60 mph or so, depending on conditions. On board, it carries eight mosquito missiles, 20 anti-aircraft missiles, and a crew of almost 70 sailors.
