There are only 3 countries with a nuclear triad, usa russia, and France/ UK. I'm counting them as one bc they have a very limited underwater nuclear arm. The US is robust, and who knows how well russias is

[@SmokePoppa]

That's actually not true. Mutually assured destruction has been an absent concept for quite some time. Prior to the "START" program, the United States alone had approximately 4X the amount of nuclear weapons that exist in the world today. During the 1970s, the USA and USSR had approximately 7X as many nuclear weapons as exist today. It was complete overkill designed to do exactly that. The United States realized that approximately 90% of the population of Russia lives in Moscow or St. Petersburg so as few as 5-10 special tomahawk cruise missiles could eliminate Russia as a serious threat, but that would violate the Geneva Convention because they would be specifically targeting civilians which is actually not what nuclear war is about. The vast majority of nuclear weapons are targeted at nuclear missile silos, military bases, military areas, etc. Civilian targets were not targeted unless it was a complete weapons release by all parties. Having those extra silos was an integral part of the planning because nobody knows where their missile is targeting. Is this missile targeting China? Is it targeting Germany? That meant you had to either target everything or wait and see. Keeping in mind that it takes roughly 30-50 minutes for ICBMs to go from one side to the other, then add in that you have systems like the B2 and B1 along with submarine based launch systems, and the entire thing gets crazy. During Joint Guardian (1999 Kosovo) the US troops talked with Russian troops who basically stated that they lived in terror that the United States would launch nuclear weapons at them. The point being, nobody wants or ever wanted nuclear war. They talk the talk and posture because they want to be heard and not dismissed like children.

[@SmokePoppa]

@@josephsmith6777 The nuclear triad is a dated concept that's like talking about how thick your walls are surrounding your kingdom. Things like nuclear submarines and stealth bombers are first strike weapons disguised as a guarantee to penetrate. It forces the opposition to invest heavily into countermeasures which was the weapon of choice used during the cold war. The USA bankrupted the USSR instead of fighting them with soldiers. Our true nuclear deterrence at this point is our submarine based weapons which is why most of the cold war era ICBMs are rusting and their systems haven't been upgraded for the service life of like three different military uniforms. Truth be told, I don't know if they even work anymore.

[@josephsmith6777]

Except SDI wasn’t really about SDI. It was a gambit by the Reagan admin. They got the Soviets to spend on research trying to keep up with the U.S. on anti-missile technology, something not feasible at the time. Meanwhile, the bulk of the funds were diverted to another project - Stealth! When the Kremlin found out about the gains America had made in cloaking technology, they panicked and tried to match them. The financial strain was the straw that broke the camel’s back, and the Iron Curtain fell. Kudos to “the Great Communicator”!

Remember that the USA until very recently used to buy rocket engines from Russia. Some of those engines used exotic alloys that the American's struggled to reproduce.

[@SmokePoppa]

Are you smoking crack? Because you have that story all fucked up bro. It's not that the US struggles to reproduce alloys, it's that certain alloys, lubricants, etc. are abundant in Russia and they're not used in the USA. So when the recipe calls for using the sweat off Ivan's balls to coat part 227 before installing it, we run into a problem when we don't have an Ivan. The only reason why the USA uses the RD-180 was so that we could infuse money into the Russian economy so that their rocket scientists didn't go work for Iran or North Korea to build ICBMs when the soviet union collapsed. The same thing with the ISS, the US paid for all the Russian components like two or three times and they still didn't meet standards.

And who, with unmatched insight, suggested that Russia didn’t just sit back and let the invasion unfold, only to decimate 5,000 of Ukraine’s finest, not to mention those NATO fellows who apparently misplaced their uniforms and had to borrow Ukrainian ones? And let’s not even get started on the laughable idea that if the United States, with its much-vaunted “Queer Army,” faced off against Russia, it wouldn’t stand a chance.

The US then counter this by building a weapon that they claim, can fly a 1000 miles. But the US were down playing it's performance, it could really fly 1500 miles.

[@ricktennant7870]

We beat that horse to death in the 80’s. If the laser is ground based, the problem we got stuck on was delivering enough energy on target long enough to eliminate the target. The atmosphere absorbs most of the energy on the way to the target and the heating of the air distorts the beam, screwing up focus and targeting.

[@klumzyee]

In addition to what the other dude said.. The other side can just use material that are reflective in nature or thicker metals that'll require a stronger laser.

I believe it was once tested many years back, when an empty factory in China was targeted. Witnesses said it appeared that a meteorite had hit it at unimaginable speed. The entire block exploded with a force equivalent of a nuclear blast. No radiation was detected and left Chinese observers puzzled.

[@SmokePoppa]

@@andrewgoldman1710 First off, your understanding of physics is incorrect. Terminal velocity is the constant speed that a freely falling object eventually reaches when the force of gravity pulling it downward is balanced by the air resistance (drag) acting upward. The rods from god concept falls short due to the extreme weight being lifted to space that would be required to achieve similar energy displacement as a nuclear weapon. A 1000 kg rod from 300,000 feet would strike the Earth with about 12.5 gigajoules of energy. That's like 3 tons of TNT. The bomb dropped on Hiroshima was 63 Terajoules and that's looked at like a firecracker compared to modern nukes. In order to be competitive, the rods from god concept would need projectiles that weigh something like 3500 tons. We could complicate the math by adding features like rockets but the variation would be minimal. That's why Rods from God was never implemented past concepts. There are theoretical applications where it works nicely with military strategy. Instead of trying to replace a nuclear weapon, the rods could be configured to work as deep earth penetrators designed to target facilities like NORAD. Likewise, they could be used as first strike weapons to target naval ports to take out naval vessels like the pearl harbor attack. The most realistic place that we'd ever see the rods from god concepts used is in combination with the concept of orbital payload deployment. The USA is shifting to use drones and robotics on the battlefield, so in theory an entire division of infantry robots and all of their gear could be stored in the vacuum of space and could make landfall anywhere in the world in 10 minutes or less. The rods could be used to prep a landing zone for incoming drop pods. Additionally the same concept could be applied but the drop pod is given a glider like shape like a wing suit for cargo and it could glide 200-1000 miles deploying special forces robots with vehicles. The future of warfare is bright boys and you ain't seen nothing yet.

Based at Barking Sands military base on Kauai island, the new system, dubbed "Marauder I and II" uses multiple batteries of focused plasma cannons, which can fire rapidly. The plasma burst uses advanced cavitation technology, and can travel at roughly 10, 000k per second to the target, hit to kill (incinerate).

Avant Garde no more than a glide not powered hypersonic vehicle but it is the US not Russia who have proven powered hypersonic manoeuvrable flight recently. With the closure by Russia and the non involvement by China of the Strategic Arms' Limitation Treaty (SALT) it is the US who is will gain from recent research advancements in powered manoeuvrable hypersonic, deliverable conventional and nuclear weapons. One must note it is the US that will have far more money to do research than Russia or China and one might want to throw in the research done by the west as well.

[@ericclausen6772]

Next decades? Are you nuts you better get this crap done with and you better hurry up with defense being first and foremost over everything else if we aren't here what's the sense of doing something else since we won't be here and we need to be able to take GPS off line in seconds to stop them from getting accurate hits on cities

[@harrywagner3877]

I wonder if we have actually clocked a Rusky ICBM at 3,682.89 mph ? Some of these stats just blow me away ......

They have been talking about this for 40 years now, and it looks like they have not come any father these company’s need to shit or get off the pot . Get this done

[@russelbrown6275]

The US had hypersonics back in the 90s long before russia

[@neilfoss8406]

I think it is more than an invitation to fire on us to allow them to become able with more capable weapons. You must strike before they develop an equivalent capability. Essentially equally capable advisaries do not have the reason to sensibly launch an attack without any advantage. It's critically important to maintain an equal to or superior to status at all times
