Sarmat is the largest rocket in the world - 100 tons. For comparison, the LGM-30 Minuteman 3 is about 35 tons.
This gives her the ability to carry up to 15 combat blocks, each of which is up to 750 kt. Compare with 15 kt dropped on Hiroshima. The total capacity of one rocket is approximately 11,000 kt. It alone is enough to wipe off the face of the Earth a state the size of France or the rich and industrial state of Texas as a whole.
Its range of 18,000 km allows you to theoretically launch at least through the South Pole or use options for full non-ballistic trajectories, which is a real problem for missile defense systems.
Sarmat strike blocks can be hypersonic missiles or hypersonic planning blocks of individual guidance, which also makes any missile defense ineffective.
