Russia building satellite to carry nuclear weapon – Intelligence report

Published on March 25, 2025 at 09:09 PM

A United States intelligence report has disclosed that Russia is developing a new satellite meant to carry a nuclear weapon.

According to the report, the development could have “devastating consequences”; for the US and the world.

US Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, revealed this in her address during the Congressional Testimony on Annual Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence Community.

The report stated that Russia's nuclear and conventional military capabilities, along with its demonstrated economic and military resilience, makes it a formidable competitor.

It also revealed that Moscow now has more nuclear weapons than any other nation, noting that this could inflict catastrophic damage on the United States and the world in the event of a major war.

“Russia is also fielding new capabilities and anti satellite weapons meant to degrade U.S. and allied space infrastructure.

“Among Russia's most concerning developments is a new satellite intended to carry a nuclear weapon as an anti satellite weapon, violating longstanding international law against such activity and putting the U.S. and global economy at risk.

“Russia has developed advanced cyber capabilities and has attempted to pre-position access on U.S. critical infrastructure for asymmetric options and make it a persistent cyber threat.

“Russia's cyber activities have been linked to multiple high-profile breaches, including the 2023 hack of Microsoft,” part of the report revealed.
