Soviet Superscience: Difference between revisions

* In ''[[Dr. Strangelove]]'' the Soviets build a Doomsday Device after the U.S. had already considered a similar device ("Our source was the ''New York Times''"). [[Superweapon Surprise|They neglected to tell anyone about it]].

* ''[[Firefox]]'' has the Soviets build a new superplane, the MiG-31 (not to be confused with the [[Real Life]] MiG-31). This plane is capable of Mach 6 and has thought-launched weapons, technologies that still don't fully exist today.

* ''[[Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull]]'' has Irina Spalko and her fellow Communists searching for the Crystal Skulls. It is mentioned that Stalin has a program investigating psychics, which isn't actually all that far-fetched; the US investigated possible paranormal things themselves.

* ''[[Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull]]'' has the Soviet search party in the jungle riding a huge truck that clears its path by mowing down trees like grass.
