Or maybe most of Russia’s nukes don’t work, but a handful of working nuclear missiles can still ruin a lot of people’s day. And it’s a Hell of an expensive bluff to call. I don’t doubt much of their arsenal is in decay, but I wouldn’t bet against a significant fraction of the arsenal being maintained.
- fauxpause_ 3y agoLaunching a single nuke that might not work is a high risk low reward gamble too. It seems very unlikely to come up
