But if I am to believe the claims, this guy is off his rocker. Our activity doesn't reduce his nuclear capabilities at all, in fact it buys him time! He recently developed supersonic missles, his capabilities are increasing by leaps and bounds. Provocative action that isn't remotely decisive is the exact opposite of what you'd do here if that was the actual concern. You'd either cut off the head or do nothing.
- _kbh_ 3y ago> He recently developed supersonic missles Supersonic missiles are heaps old. What Russia recently developed is _hypersonic_ missiles, and what Ukraine recently did is shoot all of down them with a patriot. Turns out when your missiles move in predictable patterns they can still be shot down at hypersonic speeds.
- meepmorp 3y agoYeah, merely hypersonic missiles aren't that interesting; maneuverable hypersonic missiles/weapons, however, are.
- _kbh_ 3y agoExactly hypersonic glide vehicles are what’s interesting, the Kinzhal is not a hypersonic glide vehicle. The Kinzhal is effectively just an air launched slightly modified Iskander.
