星期二，在布黑海市索契对国防部官员讲话俄罗斯领导人说，莫斯科的核部队具有“关键性”意义，十二月底前十几个导弹团要升级。

"Over the last few years we have done a lot for the strengthening of the armed forces," Putin said, according to state news agency Itar-Tass. "In accordance with the state armament programme this year we will continue replacing the Topol rocket complexes that are completing their service life with the newest Yars."

The Yars is a recent, multiple-warhead version of the road-mobile Topol intercontinental ballistic missiles, that can also be stored in a silo, as well as on a vehicle, according to IHS Jane's 360. Its introduction into service has been gradual since 2010, as Moscow looks to revamp ICBM arsenal that currently has five different kinds of missile in operation.

据IHS Jane360称，Yars是陆上移动Topol洲际弹道导弹的一种最新多弹头，也可以储存在筒仓和车辆上。2010年以来，随着莫斯科希望改造目前有五种不同类型导弹的洲际弹道导弹武库，该军火库投入使用已逐步展开。

Besides missiles, Russia will also bolster the aviation aspect of its nuclear triad this year, as Putin announced "modernized missile-carrying bombers Tu-95MS and Tu-160 armed with modern cruise long-range missiles Kh-101 and Kh-102," would be introduced.

除了导弹外，俄罗斯还将支持今年其核三重导弹的航空方面，普京宣布“现代化的运载导弹轰炸机Tu-95MS和Tu-160装备现代巡航远程导弹Kh-101和Kh-102，” “我要介绍。

Putin also urged defense officials to begin work on a new S-500 anti-missile system that can hit targets at "super-high altitudes, including near-the-Earth space."

普京还敦促国防部官员开始研制新的S-500反导弹系统，该系统可以在“超高高度，包括近地空间”击中目标。

The Kremlin has dismissed the idea that it looks to spark an arms race with the U.S. but its repeated advertizement of prospective nuclear-capable arms has served as a mixed signal.

克里姆林宫拒绝接受它希望与美国引发军备竞赛的想法，但俄罗斯一再宣布对潜在核武器能力的武器进行归类为一种混淆的信号。

Putin himself took an unusual step of dedicating the latter half of his pre-election, state-of-the-union address to a presentation of arms, including the much anticipated Sarmat 2 heavy ICBM. Russian state media channels have hyped the prospective missile by comparing its destructive capabilities to the European countries or U.S. states it could devastate with a hit. Animated footage that Putin used during the presentation also appeared to show warheads dropping on Florida.

普京本人采取了不同寻常的措施，将选举前半场关于联盟状态的讲话专门用来介绍武器，包括备受期待的萨马特2重装ICBM。俄罗斯官方媒体渠道将其破坏性能力与欧洲国家进行比较，或者美国称其可能以打击摧毁导弹，从而夸大了未来的导弹数量。普京在演讲期间使用的动画片也显示弹头在佛罗里达投掷。

The presentation was the subject of some mockery by Russians online, because of its poor use of animation and clear break with the first half of the speech that cited development and social services, not defense, as a priority.

这次演讲是俄罗斯人在线蒙受一些嘲弄的主题，因为它使用动画很差，而且发言前半部分明显断言，把发展和社会服务而不是国防作为优先事项。

Arms experts also panned the presentation of the weapons as a big reveal, but without much new information about them. Eagle-eyed bloggers noted that the government had not even produced new simulations of the prospective arms, as some animation dated back to 2007.

武器专家也大肆宣传武器，但没有关于这些武器的更多新信息。目光敏锐的博主们指出，政府甚至还没有对未来的武器进行新的模拟。
