The massive subway systems of St. Petersburg and Moscow were build to be nuclear war shelters. They are very deep underground. I have been on both and they are far ahead of any American subway system in terms of engineering.

I really don't understand the point of the OP. We have shelter systems for our leadership. Why wouldn't the Russians (and Chinese) have the same?
