Re: Could Russia succeed in a Missile hit of the US
Most of our big cities are on the coast.

Those nuclear 100 MT torpedoes that Russia has would be a rather high probability of getting through.

Also, hypersonic Maneuvering Missiles would likely get through
 Quoting: JustmeTX


Submarine launched warheads would also make it through.

Of course but there would be a lot of failures. Probably get 30% to hit.

Re: Could Russia succeed in a Missile hit of the US
In a conventional war, the US is too big for any nation (and maybe every nation) on earth to attack with a force that would overwhelm.

In a nuclear war, Russia has enough missiles to cause major destruction to every major and most medium cities in the US. That level of attack would leave all but the most rural/specific areas in the country habitable for the next few years.

There is absolutely no chance that a missile launch from a russian sub, that is allowed to sit 20 miles from the coast according to the maritime borders, would be stopped anywhere on the coast. We don't have some amazing missile defense system that sits active across our whole coast line that could stop it. We don't even have our patriot batteries deployed almost anywhere that would be a deterrent help.

You can bet that will be a priority soon though....

Re: Could Russia succeed in a Missile hit of the US
Missles are just to scare with MAD.

Think about it for 1 sec- but they have been thinking for 60 years :) how to do it.

What to do if you want to attack usa and not get immediate retaliation?

-earthquake wapon - produce huge earthquake
-weather wepons -allready used but not full force
- inducing a tsunami with a bomb
-vaking up a volcano

If you want to go nuclear
-anonymus dirty bombs go off all over the states
-drone deliverd tactical nuke
-EMP inducing device via arial nuke, satelite,...
-causing some more partner wars -china taiwan to disperse the forces

Combination of that, with cutting the internet cables is more then enough and without possibility of direct blame
NATO will think and think and talk and talk
What NATO can not do is (if not directly proven) to lunch 1000s of nuclear or even 1 war heat to russia


So why lunch everything you got, the most obvius way that you know will cause end of you and earth basicly? Only if you are truly mad...

Funny thing is, Putin is trying to make himself look mad, so they are scared what he might do. No one can predict that :)

It is simply not logical...

Re: Could Russia succeed in a Missile hit of the US
I do not agree that Putin is on the same team, due to a lot different sources that talk about many things and only a small part is Russia and Putin. They all come to same universal truths and they are so different source that i know that if they all say the sam about everything - it must be true. I know Putin is a thorn in their side and now we are at the showdown which sadly can end nuclear also according to same sources.

There was a study that showed Russia could nuke minimal 10 major American cities before they could be stopped and eliminated.

The question is: could any of you be living in one of those cities?

Re: Could Russia succeed in a Missile hit of the US
I've been told by a nuclear expert on another forum that any nuclear weapon is immediately traceable via its radiation signature.

They know who produced it, and would launch a devastating counter attack, even if it was launched from an unnamed barge off the coast.

Also, people that assume we don't have a way to kill inbound missiles may simply not have the security clearance to know what they really have.

I believe the US has laser weapons based in space that can take out the inbounds. (They have already demonstrated the laser defense system onboard special planes). (in addition to the destroyer based missiles that can kill inbounds).

Obviously, any space based laser defense systems would be kept quiet, to minimize the risk of the satellites being the first target. Also, if you recall how nervous the Russians got when Ronny Ray-gun announced his star wars defense system, probably best not to bring it up unless you want to watch the Russians lose their minds.

The creation of "Space Force" , makes it kind of obvious that we have some strategic stuff in orbit.

Re: Could Russia succeed in a Missile hit of the US
Star Wars/ SDI is not functional/operational or ready. It was defunded while being researched when the USSR fell.
No funds went to produce them.
Some systems could stop a handful of warheads. But not enough to matter.
Some warheads or missiles with multiple warheads would fail, but again not enough to matter.
Every target, on both sides is targeted with multiple warheads.
Targets--
--Every military base (bombers, fighters, tanks, infantry, subs, surface ships)
--Every powerplant
--Every rail center
--Every research center
--Every communications hub
--Every command/control center
--Every large population center
--Every airport with longer than x thousand feet runway
--Every port
--Every large bridge
--Every dam
--Every missile silo
Each targeted with 3 to 10 warheads of 500 kt to 1.5 mt

Even if 50% failed to reach the targets, it is still massive destruction that would destroy the viability of the target nation.

So yes, they could hit us.
But we can hit them too. That is why it is not a good idea to poke at them.

Re: Could Russia succeed in a Missile hit of the US
Those who say we are immune or protected just need to look at US actions now -- we are not getting overtly involved because we know that it will result in a nuclear exchange. Russia pretty much said they will go nuke.

They have around 5000 nuclear warheads- and so do we.
ICBMs, SLBMs, bombers, cruise missiles and tactical will make for a bad day.

To clarify for you---
A laser is a beam of energy somewhere in the electromagnetic spectrum. The laser ALWAYS generates less power than what was put into it.
To destroy a warhead, that has been shielded against EMP and atmospheric reentry and radiation so the people who work around it do not die of radiation sickness, requires a LOT of power. Like multiple megawatts of power, per shot.
How many powerplants do you see orbiting around in the night sky? How did we get the massive weight of those powerplants into space? spacex? Russian rockets?
The cost per pound to orbit is about 1000$-2000$.
Solar panels would be massive-and visible from earth.
TR-3B's? If we had that, why not just de-fang Russia before any trouble starts?
We have no viable defense.

Over the years I've read military strategy that insists it would billions to one for a foreign power to actually be able to hit US soil in real time. The missile or whatever would be destroyed before it hit.

But is that really true? Those of you who know, what do you think?

Are any other boomers 60 plus being triggered back to the sixties with this stuff?

I think the whole Iron Curtain scare must have affected me as a child. I started having flashbacks to those TV reports we used to see on the news in the 1960s. My anxiety is through the roof. I'm pacing and raging.

Well the point of MAD is that even if the first strike takes away most of the adversary's nukes the remaining stuff is enough to destroy the other side many times over.

The first strike would need to destroy all the nuclear missile subs too.

It can't done at the moment.

Part of the MAD was anti ballistic missile treaty -- GWBush withdrew America from that in 2003 ... Putin's new nuke systems are a response to putting antimissile installations on Russia's borders

There are deep sea subs right outside the east and west coast of the US, would take minutes to hit the targets, no chance to retaliate, but i am sure the US and China are doing the same thing.
