The USSR's Doomsday Machine
Anything related to the Cold War has a tendency to fascinate me, especially things on the Soviet side, for some odd reason. I find the Cold War to be surrounded by far more mystery than either World War, and this mystery is made all the more interesting to me personally because of the great technological progress made during the era.
Like it or not, technological progress enabled this Perimeter system, if it does in fact exist. And who knows, maybe Brezhnev, Andropov, or Chernenko even got inspiration for the idea from the West. That last operator’s switch may just have been a nice game of chess…
