User ID: 81074696 United States 03/10/2022 09:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 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.... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 80149951 Austria 03/10/2022 11:04 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 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.

User ID: 80193276 United States 03/10/2022 11:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 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. Last Edited by JustmeTX on 03/10/2022 11:39 AM Justme |

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. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 82139251 France 03/10/2022 11:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 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. |

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

That's why they call it M.A.D Quoting: Brit Perspective 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. |
