  • Russia getting a few more nukes



    My take: They know those things would never hit the U.S. Theyd be made to fall harmlessly out of the sky. But they can point the gun at someone else's head, cause they know we care about that. Some other country they're trying to exploit at the time.

    They aren't getting MORE nukes. They are replacing older missiles..

    They are spending a lot of money they don't have to continue their armed forces modernization but now they have no ability to finance it. Makes me wonder if Russia's modernization is mostly on paper..

      My understanding is that those old ones could not be counted on to work anymore. Something about them aging and requiring constant upkeep to still function properly.

              Cool. Betcha didn't know we use their old warheads to fuel our nuclear power plants:

              Once the Cold War ended, much of Russia's surplus uranium from thousands of decommissioned weapons wound up in crumbling military facilities. In 1993, the U.S. Department of Energy made a deal to have the material converted to fuel for U.S. power plants. The last shipment arrives today.


              Bout 10% of our nuke power comes from their warheads.

                  Did you ever stop to think, and forget to start again?
                  "It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."
