Thunderball is the ninth studio album by German heavy metal band U.D.O. After their previous studio album, U.D.O. had released the DVD Nailed to Metal and an accompanying live CD titled Nailed to Metal: The Missing Tracks in 2003.

The title of this album and Udo Dirkschneider's posture on the cover are allusions to the 1965 film Thunderball.

Поезд по России идёт и идёт.
Поезд по России. 100 грамм и вперёд!
Перестук колёс. Необъятна даль.
Поезд нас унёс к началу всех начал.
