While 'Oreshnik' variant of RS-26 Rubezh can deliver MIRV conventional, kinetic, and nuclear payloads at mach 25 (5 miles a second), IRBMs are too expensive to use. This one was a test and a signal of nuclear saber rattling. There will be no tactical nuclear weapon use or further use of IRBMs. Also note that RAF provided USSTRATCOM notice shortly before the strike to prevent nuclear war as is the international custom for high trajectory space and missile launches. As a result, the US moved B-61 mod 13 dial-a-yield 340kt warheads to Łask Air Base Poland for the increased readiness of potential delivery by new Polish F-35A fighters and upped the alert level of Ohio-class ballistic missile submarines. Putin could use nukes once, but then he can never live or move above ground ever again, and BRICS would become BICS (geopolitically and economically). Вооружённые Си́лы Росси́йской Федера́ции, Vooruzhyonnyye Sily Rossiyskoy Federatsii (Russian Armed Forces) leaks like sieve. There are zero signals from it indicating an increase in posture towards nuclear war.

  If I were Russia I would be concerned that China, India, and the USA have warned them not to even think about it. They would be walking around naked and hungry in the streets if they were not careful. This is all the posturing of a dying Aberration of Monumental Evil and Murder as 800 years of their history have shown the world.

    Russian society is cannibalizing itself to survive (and to be fair, the US is too, to a much subtler and slower degree). Russia provinces are already warning their residents of power cuts this winter on state TV. Provinces are buying generators, firewood, and stoves in preparation. St. Petersburg's steam pipes are already breaking and flooding the street. There aren't enough workers to salt roads, so salt is dumped in random large piles on the street that cause more harm than good. Across Russia, 1 kg of butter is locked up like razors in US stores. Russians are standing in 4-6 hour long lines for cheap eggs. Russia ran out of domestically-grown potatoes because there aren't farmers to plant or harvest them, so they had to import them. Breaking water and steam pipes is happening all over major Russian cities, and it's taking longer to repair them because the repair people were either rounded up early for conscription or signed a contract for a one-way trip.
