The UGM-73 Poseidon is a type of submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) that was developed by the United States during the Cold War. It was designed to be deployed on the U.S. Navy's fleet of nuclear-powered submarines. The Poseidon missile was an enhancement over its predecessor, the Polaris missile, and was intended to carry multiple thermonuclear warheads, allowing it to strike multiple targets in a single launch.
