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

22. T-50 Maneuverability

With a range of 930 miles and speeds of 2,175, the T-50 is a capable aircraft. What makes this an impressive technology is not only the speed, but that it can maneuver at such high speeds. Not only that, it can sustain the pilot for up to half a minute under nine Gs of pressure. In lay terms, at nine Gs, that is a lifetime. On top of that, the T-50 can safely eject a pilot at 60,000 feet (14 miles up). That’s 22 Burj Khalifas stacked top to bottom.
