Gaiaterra: Elysea's Conflict/Vacuum Imploder

The Vacuum Imploder is the Voshkod superweapon capable of destroying almost any enemy target with utmost precision.

History
"..."

-...

After years of research, Voshkod scientists figured out their main rocket scientist actually lied about the range of rockets. Despite kidnapping Von Braun, it never occurred to the Voshod that he was anything but honest to the day Captain Rocket rescued him and his family. Soon, and despite a high mortality rate, Voshkod rocket scientists were creating and testing new rockets, and then missiles, all with much greater range and speed, until they were second to none in expertise. The Voshkod still have the edge in rocketry, and their enemies are reminded of this daily.

The height of Voshkod rocketry was the ICBM (Inter-City Bombarding Missile), which had the potential range of over 400 kilometers, an astonishing figure for an atmospheric flight. Though impressed by this, the Red Army noted that they had nothing to arm it with. A simple high explosive warhead would at most destroy a single building, and gas warfare was banned by the Politiburo, nukes were the best solution, but when the Lurensians betrayed them they made it very sure that they took their nuclear technology with them and refuse to share, whether friend or foe (and the Voshkod struggles to even gain a scrap of their data to this day). In typical Voshkod straightforwardness, several professors of relative expertise (such as atomic chemistry and theoretical physics) were locked in a large room stocked only with books about large explosions, blackboards, and a year's supply of food and water. They were promised to only be let out once they came up with a warhead of suitable destructive power.

Months later, they had an answer. Inspired by accounts of vacuum bubbles in water mains bursting and collapsing entire city blocks, the scientists put forward that the best suggestion would not be an explosion, but an implosion. Moved from the large room to a (locked) facility with the most advanced laboratory equipment in the Union, the scientists used their notes to create a Perfect Vacuum, thought impossible by Allied scientists except between atoms in lesser vacuums. A Perfect Vacuum is, literally, the absence of anything; even in outer space, there is a thin interstellar medium in the vacuum. A test in Mor Dhona resulted in the entire taiga, from trees to soil, being sucked toward the center of the vacuum, leaving only a large crater and a superdense core of fused material. Needless to say, the Voshkod had their warhead. And in the aftermath have started pioneering vacuum-based warheads for their elite forces, as the warheads not only do the same damage as a normal warhead but also causes anything hit by these warheads to pull into themselves with grotesque results for anything organic, with bigger warhead even creating "black holes" that pulls anyone within the area towards its center, with the same results.
