      This is a real bad idea. Even if he announced it first, I’m sure hairs on the back of NORAD’s neck start standing up when SBIRS starts alerting. It’s not like someone wouldn’t lie before a preemptive strike to lower defenses and gain the advantage, especially against European allies’ countries. This is precisely why treaties were in place.

      Horrible precedent Putin.

      biggest shit talker on the planet he even surpasses elon´s daily diarrhea

      Does the West even have portable interceptors capable of handling MIRVs? Both THAAD and Patriot aren’t specialized in handling MIRVs. You would need a Midcourse interceptor, but those ones aren’t portable.

      Why are Putin and the Russians escalating the conflict so badly? Is Putin’s political position so weak and precarious he has to show off how *strong* he is? Doesn’t he realize how childish he looks, escalating now, with his puppet 2 months away from getting back into the Whitehouse?

      >Putin claimed no other countries in the world had such missile technology. While he conceded other states would soon develop them, he said: “That will be tomorrow, after a year or two. But we have this system now. That’s important.”

      Bold of him to think Russia is on the cutting edge of technology.

      I wonder how long response time is reduced? The trajectory of a missile targeting North America would be obvious immediately. But a western European target would be difficult to discern, depending on the launch site location, terminal altitude and launch angle. The missile *is* ballistic, with apparently unguided warheads, although Russia has MIRV technology. Is the new missile MIRV capable?*

      Of course Russia would lie about an attack on NATO countries. “Heads up we’re targeting eastern Ukraine” has nearly zero credibility

      * The sector will need new terminology. In the past multiple *untargeted* reentry vehicles weren’t really a thing. (untargeted warheads mutes the point of having multiple reentry vehicles on an expensive ballistic missile) ‘MIRV’ implies the warheads are individually targetable.

      I found very funny how it was communicated by West defence organisations. For example USA said “We were notified about launch by our systems of non proliferation of nuclear weapons”. I mean since when you started to call systems of early warnings of ICBMs launch with this euphemisms “non proliferation”. How is yours “non proliferation” and “Russia as a partner of non proliferation” feeling, are they ok after Russia placed nukes in Belarus, gave North Korea to copy “Topol-M” improving their ICBM capability drastically? And helping China with Russian refinement capabilities to pile up warheads en mass?

      >“We will continue these tests, including in combat conditions, depending on the situation and character of the security threats posted to Russia,” Putin said in a televised meeting with military chiefs.

      Important to note the word DEPENDING, the missiles being used are only allowed to hit Kursk. What Putin seems to be doing here is implying he’d do it again if any U.S or U.K missiles hit anywhere in Russia outside of the Ukrainian occupied region.

      The U.K and U.S have zero interest getting dragged in to this than they already are.

      Let me put this in more simple terms. He’s using weapons that will light up the “nuke activated alert” every time he uses one and the rest of the word will scramble to figure out what is happening each time.

      If this missile even slightly tingled on the early warning systems of any country, NATO or China, then this can have zero tolerance. We cannot live in a world where early warnings are no longer trusted because someone is tampering with them as it voids any safety against first strikes and is risking retaliation strikes being triggered.

      We cannot allow this to be normalised. This is a massive escalation and major threat to every country in the world. This should have every nation angry not just NATO countries. It would be entirely justified for other nuclear nations to launch missiles if their alarms get triggered.

      I live relatively close to where a nuclear strike may hit. I wholeheartedly support nuclear deterrent funding in my country, I would rabbidly support it being used in retaliation if I was to survive and would rather see the world destroyed than for my country to be nuked and nothing done as my country being victim would be from Russia, China or Iran types and I’d rather no world existed than one where their tyranny is supreme. I’m a pretty staunch Left Wing person which is why as an adult I’ve become more accepting of being a warhawk to protect what I value. The ignorance of anti war stances was fun as a teenager before I matured but with knowledge comes the understanding that capitulation encourages more violence not less.

      This isn’t going to work. The entire world’s defense systems are going to depend entirely on Putin keeping his word. I don’t see how we can accept that level of risk. I guess that’s the point – more chaos

    13. jmfranklin515 on

      I’m curious if the ICBM “tests” are just him trying to find a way around the fact that he’s exhausted his conventional missiles and has a bunch of ICBM’s hanging around that would never get used otherwise because even he isn’t crazy enough to initiate a nuclear war.

    14. RockerDawg on

      Start lighting up Russian targets inside of Ukraine with US ICBMs….see if Russia like keeping on their toes too

    17. Sin317 on

      Good. This will give Ukraine and NATO valuable data to detect, predict, and eventually intercept those missiles…

      What a moron…

    18. cyrixlord on

      A nuke from russia would not come from this type of missile but a small conventional nuke like a shell or glide bomb with a tiny yield. He knows if he did that it would mean the end of every Russian military object in Ukraine by NATO. They said as much already

    21. kid_sleepy on

      Whatever. Don’t talk about it, be about it.

      So we can start PUTIN stuff up YOUR ass.

    22. Stickerbushbee on

      What’s that movie where they developed a weapon capable of causing earthquakes (and then goes bad and stops the earth’s core). If shit like that exists, now is the time to pull it out and blow Russia out of the water.

      >hypersonic Oreshnik ballistic missile

      This overuse of “hypersonic” is getting out of hand. All ballistic missiles are hypersonic even the very first one (V-2).

    25. extremelight on

      So what happens if one of these missile “tests” slip for whatever reason and appear to be headed towards another country?

    26. Same_Instruction_100 on

      This is unacceptable. We must strongly assert that if they do so, we will fire back with our nuclear arsenal or a massive conventional response.

    27. OliverSudden413 on

      Biden has immunity and more than a month to send Ukraine the good stuff.

    28. EasternCanuckian on

      I seem to remember “it’s just a military exercise” then proceeds to invade Ukraine…

    29. Grunblau on

      Russia has to hit 100’s maybe 1000’s of western cities with a devastating attacks. The west only needs two, Moscow and St. Petersburg…

    30. SlapAShotta on

      Listen. If this fuckwit wants to play with fire then fire is what this fuckwit will get. Lots of fire, death and destruction.

      I’ve learned to accept that tomorrow may not come so I’ll enjoy today as much as I can. It’s not morbid, it’s just today’s reality.

    32. SuperDuperSaturation on

      Fuck Putin in his whore mouth. Someone needs to clean his windows.

    33. NYerstuckinBoston on

      Putin is not going to survive this war. In the future, this invasion will be considered Vladimir Putin’s colossal mistake.
