History-making summits between the US and the Soviet Union are strewn through the decades, dripping with mutual suspicion but significantly shaping the course of.. Sky News
Tensions between the U.S. and Russia have plunged into Cold War depths—this time, under the oceans. Following former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev's chilling 'dead hand' warning, U.S. President Donald Trump deployed two nuclear submarines to strategic waters, reigniting a submerged arms race. Russia’s lawmakers hit back, claiming their nuclear sub count outmatches the U.S., and they’ve already shadowed American movements.
As both powers flex their underwater muscle, here's a deep dive into their undersea arsenals: from the stealthy Ohio-class and lethal Virginia-class subs of the U.S. to Russia’s deadly Borei-class and Akula predators. With world oceans turning into silent battlegrounds, who truly rules beneath the waves?

Tensions between Washington and Moscow are spiraling after U.S. President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of two nuclear submarines near Russian waters in response to Dmitry Medvedev’s chilling “dead hand” threat. The move has fueled fears of World War 3, despite experts calling it “posturing.” A viral video claiming Russian Borei-class submarines armed with Bulava missiles are stationed off the U.S. coast has added to the panic, though fact-checkers confirmed the footage is from 2018. Trump defended his decision on Truth Social, warning that “words are important and can have unintended consequences.” Analysts suggest the deployment signals strength but does not escalate nuclear confrontation. The standoff comes as Trump grows increasingly frustrated with Vladimir Putin’s refusal to negotiate a Ukraine ceasefire, with both nations engaging in nuclear saber-rattling unseen since the Cold War.

In a stunning escalation, U.S. President Donald Trump has confirmed the deployment of two nuclear submarines in response to what he described as serious threats from ex-Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. The move has sent shockwaves across global diplomatic and defense circles, fueling fears of a renewed nuclear standoff. Medvedev’s remarks—reportedly branded “provocative” and “dangerous” by U.S. defense officials—prompted Trump to act swiftly, citing the “safety of our people” as his primary motivation. As U.S.-Russia tensions reach a boiling point, analysts warn that this could mark the beginning of a chilling new phase in global power dynamics. Trump's actions reflect a dramatic return to Cold War-style posturing, with nuclear deterrence once again dominating international discourse. The world now watches closely as questions mount: What exactly did Medvedev threaten—and how far is each side willing to go?
