This presentation gives students the opportunity to think about the threat that Russia's armed forces and nuclear missiles pose to the world. There is some information about the extent of Russia's military might, some information about the Cold War and a task in which students are encouraged to explore the capability of Russia's nuclear weapons, specifically the rather scarily-named SS-16 Satan missile, that can travel 16,000km and obliterate an area the size of several US states. With string to represent the range of the missiles and counters to illustrate the extent of the blast, students construct a map and can get a feel for what it would be like to have access to the Red Button!
