EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a chilling glimpse into the heart of the Cold War era. The image showcases a Soviet SS-13 intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), known as the Savage, standing tall against an August sky in 1982. Its formidable presence serves as a reminder of the intense arms race that defined this tumultuous period in history. The SS-13 Savage was one of the most powerful weapons developed by the Soviet Union during this time. With its long-range capabilities and devastating payload, it symbolized both military might and political tension between superpowers. This photograph offers viewers a rare opportunity to witness firsthand the sheer magnitude of these technological marvels that once threatened global peace.
