Stunning Clip Of How Russia Is "Not" Preparing For Nuclear War
Despite all the words - and equity market rallies (confirming that it must be true) - it would appear Mr. Putin and his men have been quietly "not" preparing for all-out war (which makes us wonder, aside from the ICBMs, just what it would look like if they were actually preparing for war). Below is a clip of today's "simulated massive nuclear attack" drills conducted in Russia. It is in short, stunning.

Speaking of Game of Thrones. Here is our king tweeting out an image of his lordship:
White House Releases Image Depicting Obama as ‘Game of Thrones’ KingSome of "The Ones" work:

Apparently a serious case of Dissassociative Disorder.
Disturbing
The best-case interpretation is that his administration simply doesn't take the office seriously.
Worst case-- severe mental illness pervades this administration.
I worked inside the DC beltway for about 8 years (not in gov) and had to interact with pols on occasion. It was in the 1970s and it was bad then. I still have friends there and they tell me it's much worse now.
They live in their own world... might as well be living on Mars.
The aids-riddled doper thinks he's on a reality tv show.
I'm gonna be super pissed if I get incinerated before the end of Game of Thrones.
I just started watching it...only on Season 1, episode 5.
Don't spoil it, but I am betting Arya is one bad ass at this point.
The best boobs are shown early in the series, don't worry.
Fuck you! Sansa Stark just turned 18.
WB should "depict" Obama as Lord Farquaad. Seriously.
I've been calling Obama "the Mulatto Farquaad" since 2008 trying to get the meme started (because I think it's perfect) but it never caught on.
This Game of Thrones stuff, however, is just downright insane. There is no seriousness, no competence, no credibility left in American leadership whatsoever. I'm too exasperated for more comment at the moment.
"There is no seriousness, no competence, no credibility left in American leadership whatsoever."
Elvis left the building long ago.
But if they are so incompetent how can a CIA boogeyman be hiding behind every bush in the Ukraine?
Imagine peoples' shock if... no .... I can't say it...
if... people discovered .. OH IT IS SO HORRIBLE..
that POLITICIANS LIE.
There I got it out. Now you can all tell me how I am off the deep ent.
"the Mulatto Farquaad"
I love it and will continue the meme. Well done.
I have to practice with you.
"the Mulatto Farquaad"
"the Mulatto Farquaad"
"the Mulatto Farquaad"
"the Mulatto Farquaad"
"the Mulatto Farquaad"
Tit for tat saber rattling.
Just look at all that diesel they have to spare.
This is propaganda, USSA, USSA, USSA!
How much phyz silver just evaporated there?
no kidding! exactly what I think about when I think of our cruise missiles, which they say each one holds 15kg of silver....that comes to 482 Troy Ounces of silver per missile.
Who knows how many of those we have as well as countless other missiles with however much silver they all have in them.
But every missile that blows up evaporates all that silver for good never to return.
Just think: each cruise missile evaporates an entire monster box of ASE's once it goes boom!
Keep stackin' that shiny phyzz, folks...silver is still currently the frickin' sale of the century right now, and you can never have enough!!!
Actually, Bath House recently ordered cessation of cruise missile making.
And his DoD has nothing new to replace them with.......
If I did not know better I would say he is an enemy spy.
http://www.allvoices.com/contributed-news/16815745-us-could-stop-making-...
Hmmm....maybe because we have a shortage of ASE Monster Boxes? hahaha
Or maybe is it because our cruise missiles are just a tad bit out of date from 30 years ago and Russia now has those Onyx and Sunburn missiles that go 3+ the speed of sound and can blow our best Navy ships right outta the water???
And yes...he is a fucking treasonous enemy, that's for fucking sure. So are probabaly 95% of all the other sociopath scumbags crawling around the District of Criminals, Wall Street, etc. etc.
+1000!
you don't need the word "spy" on the end.
apparently not enough, its down 9 cents today........q
makes me wonder there is just a shit ton of silver out there. so much so that they can just fire off a bunch of it without a care. Weird.
no way. sprott told us there was a shortage.
if silver had real value they would be filling socks with silver coins and beating each other to death with them, this way it could be re usable.
makes me wonder there is just a shit ton of silver out there. so much so that they can just fire off a bunch of it without a care. Weird.
Yeah, it's almost like they mine three quarters of a billion ounces a year of the stuff!
Oh... wait a second...
They use paper silver now to manufacture them, that's why there's no shortage.
Well this is certainly a change in presentation from the Tylers.
CNBS: Breaking News
It has been reported that with the incineration of Manhattan, that WWIII has started when an Al-CIAduh weapon was ignited with the help of RUssian diplomats at the UN in protest for NYC's summons of the Iranian ambassador over concerns of unpaid parking tickets.
Steve Liesman has spoken with Paul Krugman who has stated unequivocally that: "I'm getting a woody. Just think of the boost this will be for new windows and malignant irradiated urchin laborers."
Becky Orthodontia was quick to point out that: "World War III cometh and it has been so underrated that if Yolane does anything other than buy, they need their shining pointed melting little heads examined."
If what you say happens, there will instantly be no more Internet.
That's bad, but worse is that I found a video of Steve Liesman with my woman on the uploaded GF pics site.
HLS
You've got potential, kid. Tell you what -- come up with something like that except really insane and violent for "fedtoatiger" and I'll run it.
OOooohhhhh fireworks !
Does 4th of July come early this year ?
We deny inflation, we deny asset bubbles, we deny there is an employment problem, we deny there never really was a recovery from 08-09, we deny that trillions of dollars in debt will ever come back to bite us in the ass.....
What makes you think we can't deny there is a war going on?
I mean, unless bombs and mortar shells start dropping on the continental US, I goddamnedguaranteeyou we CAN deny there is a war happening.
The erstwhile* MSM keeps stating that they're close to Civil War over there.
"Close"?
* was going to say "fucking" but figured about time I clean up my act.
I always thought you did your best work when you were pissed off. I usually do.
Yeah.... civil war. Golly gee willikers, I hope it doesn't come to that! Please. It's been a fucking civil war for at least a month already.
Ironic that our two civil wars are somewhat similar, ours here in the US was begun in congress when the legislature was about to declare bringing slaves to the US an illegal act and they should be deported and brought back to where they came from. Human nature being what it is, found the slaves being brought to Haiti instead and that's when Lincoln suddenly had to create an emancipation for the slaves declaring them free people to do as they choose. The South rebeled and lost everything.
Theirs is an old indiginous war between Ukraineians which more a kin to a modern day Hatfield and Mccoys with all the tech and tempers compounded in a bottle or panadoras box(or a pistol on your thumb), just waiting to exploded at the surprising moment of discovery. It's here like everything else, climate change, unfunded liabilities, Qualitative Easing. The show people, is about to begin.
"The fucking MSM keeps stating that they're close to Civil War over there."
I've still got some quota to burn through this week.
sigh, in love
I still remember the waitress on the bus to Bakersfield.
OK, if I get something really twisted worked up, you got a deal :)
1) She is a tiger.
2) She is mindless.
3) She hungers.
Plenty of twisted in there somewhere. Unleash the beast.
Edit: I barely remember the waitress! Do you have a copy of that I recall it being rather insane.
Okay Google can be god-damned scary I'm serious:

WaterIsWet: Nothing is STILL HAPPENING!
Cougar: If they close their eyes and wish really really really really hard with all their best wishing hopes, and squeeze their lucky rabbit's foot, and pray to the tooth fairy really really really earnestly maybe it will all just go away.
Someone needs to write this up as a horror flick. All horror flicks have a scene just like this where everyone becomes stupid, except it's usually some stuck-up chick with big knockers whining "this is not happening this is not happening" when you say outloud shut up you stupid skank anyone can see it's happening and if all your brains weren't in your actual tits you would have been 15 miles away already on a Greyhound headed for Bakersfield.
That kind of flick. Except with Congressional leaders. And some of them can be men.
knukles: clicking little red shoes together...
Priceless imagery...:)
big tittied dumb ass skank getting on some dumpy old bus for Bakersfield, land of opportunity while the rest of the world is consumed by the golem loosed from the Congressional attic.......
Cougar: Yeah yeah but get this ... In Bakersfield she gets a crappy job as a waitress in an all-nite diner, hooks up with an abusive boyfriend who grows pot in his basement, and feels like life has passed her by (never mind that all her friends were killed by a golem). Just when things are the most bleak for her she serves coffee to an influential casting agent who, on seeing those big bazookas fall out of her uniform, tells her he has this great part in a movie he's casting if she's willing to take a chance. She tosses her apron into the sink, jumps in his rented car and leaves Bakersfield forever, never looks back, and goes on to enjoy a modestly successful career doing cheesy horror flicks playing the stupid stuck-up chick with big boobs who always gets whacked 8 minutes in.
knukles: Cougar, you are on one helluv a roll tonite.
I got grins readin' ya' all over
Stay on it and enjoy
Say and doesn't half way though her next horror movie the golem come out, starts eating everybody and she winds up back on the bus to Bakersfield? Sorta Pulp Fiction like sequence?
Cougar: I'm just tuned, that's all. Some days are like that. Glad you enjoyed it. I did.
Got shit done at work, but so what. The world is going off a cliff, not much of anything making sense right now.
I'm writing a novel on the topic. Been getting into more than usually lately. Writing tunes me hard because the story is about hard nasty goings on. Bad things happening to good people, far worse things happening to bad people, and unthinkable things happening to all the people again and again and again and again.
No way out. There is a narrow place in the wall of extinction where you can squeeze through leaving everything else behind. But even that is not the way out. It's just the other side of no way out.
A couple months ago, I used the word, "fuck" six times in a single sentence. Still didn't make my point.
LOL! Did she dump you after that?
Impressive. Hope people here know what tney are doing.
That would be the difference. US is smarter and more ruthless than people even probably speculate about. The billions spent in US defense still has some really smart people working on a lot of advanced systems. In the end, this is still just brute force compared to our weapons systems. Regarless, its still impressive. This is just the shit that was seen. An ace or 10 up the Russian sleeve is very likely.
Increasingly its a lot of foreign or almost-foreign nationals working on American weapons systems. Once they get citizenship, its fairly hard to deny a security clearance, and we know that the Silicon Valley is increasingly turning foreign.
"In the end, this is still just brute force compared to our weapons systems."
You mean the systems we have that are so complicated they barely work and are vulnerable to hacking? Don't be surprised to find out the US is nothing but a paper tiger when faced with a formidable adversary.
Yea, we kicked the shit out of Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein, and deep sixed OBL, so we can beat our chests like like real warriors. Of course, those conquests were vastly underestimated by our WAGs so no doubt they'll be ready for a real fight if the time comes. Especially now that a lot of the senior Generals have been dismissed.
And let's not forget who the Commander-in-Chief is these days. What's he gonna do? Teleprompter his way to the front holding up a nine iron?
Absolutely right.
WW2 Germany invested resources in V1, V2, rocket fighters, giant tanks and many other hi tech projects which ultimately were not able to counter the Soviet policy of good-enough, reliable and lots of it approach. The Siberian factories produced more bang per Kwh than the Ruhr. That lesson is well understood by the Bear but not by the West.
The Soviet "juggernaut" would not have been such without massive Western support in war materials and factory equipment. The Soviets deserve the respect for sure, but realism is important.
taxpayers must be happy
So they are NOT like Iraq or Libya or any other non-nuclear state we have freedom'd? Yeah. All out war is an understatement.
All the swagger is bullshit.
If the US and Russia go to war there will be no winners. Only degrees of loss.
Those who think one or the other will be a push-over are delusional.
But, Russia could not win without going nuclear because they lack the logistical capability of invading or occupying the US. The US could...but only if it had Europe's active support.
There are no winners to be had. We'd all be better off if we nuked our own captials so that only the sociopathic leaders would perish, and the rest survive.
This is insanity on display.
The Germans thought they could occupy Russia too.
You don't seem to be paying attention.
You mean ZE GERMANS? ZE modern Germans that I know are a disgrace and this time the 1.000 year Reich wouldn't last 3 weeks. Come on, seriously? Look at the young Germans these days:
http://i.imgur.com/GiFa3uJ.jpg
Yep, back in the good old days they were Spartans and didn't drink...
Just loss of reserve currency status and all the US' colonies, uuh, I mean allies, would be a big loss. Of course war w/ China would mean "Bye Bye Walmart"
I can imagine 99% of Russian armaments are in the water; they must have ten subs for each western tank. The sleeping giant has been busy building in their sub-pens, whilst the west has been stomping the middle-east with their military might.
Bingo. That's where their real strength lies.
Neocons have always been lusting for war - but preferably with primitive societies with outdated weapons.
They may little lust for war with Russia.
"They may little lust for war with Russia."
Naw . . . they salivate when thinking about how many 'useless eaters' could be erased from 'their' planet from both sides in a world war.
They ae Insane.
Russia has been re-arming to USSR levels with now Good Stuff while the JUSA has slept or beaten up natives like Mussolini did in Ethiopia.
Yep, the Russians have been, with one tenth the budget, outbuilding the US in military equipment. Fuck me, the fervor of war make people illogical.
They may little lust for war with Russia.
It depends, they could agree to only kill each others servants while making sure they don't kill any elite. Always giving insider warnings for every location that will be mushroomed.
How come we never get to see the toys all our tax dollars pay for?
They are too stealthy to be seen!

Holy Shit!!!
WTF was that?
Puff, the Magic Dragon.
Take your pick.
1) The replacement for the A-10.
2) A Skynet human-remediation vehicle.
3) A hoax video released by our evil overlords to counter the Russian video of very real weapons.
The A-10 is a hard act to follow, especially in light of the charlie foxtrot surrounding the fighter replcements here of late...
That was video of a 50-year-old missile launcher called a BM-21.
It shoots missiles that are 120mm in diameter - much like my wrists and your thighs.
It is a fine product of Soviet 1964 technology.
But unless you put chemical weapons in them they aren't that deadly. I've had the rockets impact litterally within feet of me without losing life limb or eyesight.
But they do make for a pretty picture.
Not the main vid...the freaky fucking UFO thing raining some sort of hell down on Taliban....Knucks post...
As for those rocket trucks, I'm sure there may me some German infantry still alive that would tell you that it wasn't a walk in the park to be on the receiving end of them.
The freaky UFO thing was the product of someone's fevered imagination. The on-the-ground explosions were real enough -- I'd say an air strike took out a mine field or an IED -- they then added the "UFO" in post-production. High school kids can pull off this kind of thing now with free video editing software running on a laptop computer.
I'm tellin' ya' it's Puff the Magic Dragon. A C-130 with an autocannon in it's belly. You can see the muzzle flashes and everything. Been around since the '60s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_AC-130
The original Puff was a AC-47.
Overfed,
First beer, now this.
We must have been in a lot of the same places.
Bofors
I can say, with a great deal of conviction, that I don't wan't one exploding anywhere near me.
doctored footage of a jdam strike
Artillery strike with clever editing. You can see the airburst of the artillery right after the first rounds hit.
Army base near where I grew up, used to put on 'firepower demonstrations'. Bring the kids, watch artillery barrage, MLRS launches, and if lucky a couple of straffing runs by an A-10. Guaranteed that no nine year old witness would ever view the world the same way again. What the nine year old didn't comprehend however, was the stupendous logistics tail that made it all possible.
Look at the size of the air force for example, versus the number of pilots/drone operators. Then count all the maintenance contractors, and manufacturers, and their suppliers. So in that single firepower demonstration, one had probably seen the handiwork of a hundred thousand unknown men, carried by the taxes on three million more. All that effort spent, for the potential to wreak destruction. E.g. to control people, by destroying their property.
And we call ourselves capitalists.
Your local Sheriff want's them to be a surprise.

damn pretty badass
Nice footage.
Old skool is still the best school.
Every time I see a group of rocket launchers firing like that I expect to see Godzilla coming over the horizon.
Don't f*ck with the Russian bear...
And that was the expired stuff.
Your brevity speaks volumes.
The headline here is crap.
Only three of the scenes here are ICBMs.
The rest are BM-21 120mm ROCKET ARTILLERY mounted on ZIL trucks...thought I saw a couple of towable launchers simliar to chinese type-63's.
THEY ARE NOT NUCLEAR!
Shooting a nuke from a BM-21 would be as smart as taking a position as an 'in flight missile mechanic'. They'd get zapped by their own cloud.
Pure propagada.
Well with no draft and few in the middle & upper classes having any military experience, the lack of understanding is common. Best if they just showed the film footage and forgot about any commentary if they don't know what theyre looking at.
yeah yeah fine.
we still likes.
More here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltYWlmXmmuI
Me thinks ye doth saber-ratttle too much.
Looked pretty convincing. How does one know those ICBM's are just heading for a range until they hit?
All it takes is a few radar plots of position, and they can determine a probable ballistic trajectory. Sattelite-based systems and/or long-range phased array radar systems have been able to detect and compute predicted impacting points for at least the past 30 years.
Rockets are not under power all the way to the target.
With the exception of cruise missiles, they fly until they are the right trajectory and speed, and then they are ballistic - meaning Newton's Laws take over.
It is the same calculation you'd make to determine where a rock thrown with a certain acceleration and trajectory would land.
Used to be able to tell who were the old time arty guys because after 20-30 years they were always saying "Huh?"
Can't hear worth a damn.
I guess size does matter.
I'd be more impressed if wasn't the same thing launching from multiple camera angles. Propoganda, multiple cameras at variable distances provides the illusion that bunches of things were flying. Fancy edit and we have a whole war going on!

for a country with a small and shrinking gdp, these large scale excercises must be expensive. age expectanyc of avg russian man, 56; similar to many third world countries.
in poker if you dont have a winning hand you'd like to bet so that the other players opt to not play. theyre bluffing and wouldnt be able to hold any nato city for more than a few hours. and with all the gold in NYC there really wouldnt be that much to loot.
Good point, because they aren't expensive for the US at all, no.

We should attack before they have a chance to reload.
All right, fucking immpresive show of 'Force', on the other hand though.
Just how far advanced would we be as a collective if we didnt pay our brightest, and no doubt bestest to produce world destroying capabilities of immense proportions???????
Fuck me, it might be an age thing, but that video didnt fill me with joy, more fright.
I have two kids, one 16 and one 13, and you know what? I often sit and wonder why I brought them into a world with videos like this.
Do any of you really want all out war?
Call me a jaded old fucked off cynic, but I dont, not for me, you, friends, and especially my kids. Its well past time we hanged the collective governments that rule us that would make us use the weapons on this video against each other.
We deserve better than this, and that video proves it.
:-(
Agree, but not gonna happen.
Don't worry, all our above average children are protected by the best slow-motion flags and predatory bird in the world. We're perfectly safe.
KEEP SHOPPING, SOVIET PATRIOTS!!!
When I was a kid I used to live close to Mather AFB and would see the B-52s doing touch and goes. I remember wondering if I'd live into my teens or die in nuclear fire. That fear went away in the 90s and now I can't believe the threat of nuclear war is upon the world again. I pray that my kids inherit my stash of preps and think dad was a gentle crazy for storing all this gear for so long.
I agree, who gives a shit who has what or how modernized their weapons are. They all have weapons that will end the world that's all that matters.
Do you really think the gov't of your country is for the citizens first or their own interest. That's what people need to realize that you're expendable and they won't lose any sleep if you were to perish. Hopefully that will never come to that.
All they are worried about is Bath House, McPain, and Miss Lindsay surviving in the Fuhrerbunker.
I think we found those mobile weapons of mass destruction Bush was talking about...
Looks like the campaign to sell more war toys is gearing up.
Now THIS is what will save our economy!
A lot unsaid in that video and most of what I have read about the "drills". First strike, retaliatory, localized (to start with) or let's just fry the globe from the get go.

Good. Another "Evil Empire" to counteract the one here...
What an ENORMOUS waste of money, resources and human effort.
Reagan's "Evil Empire" was the Soviets, a concept that no longer exists. Now, the chairs are reversed and with this banker-cartel invasion of Ukraine, the West now needs to be assigned motives of evil intent.
Putin’s not going to war; he’s just showing if you want war, you’ll get war. If you don’t want war, talk to the U.S. Commander in Chief, i.e., the world's chief warmonger.
Maybe the little NATO countries, after seeing this, won’t be as anxious to follow the US into war. It's called deterrence. Let us pray it be so.
I think Putin is showing Europe if you want war, I can give you war.
The neocon know-it-alls are wallowing in their stink tanks absolutely convinced we can take out Russia and China before they can get off a nuke because the US has nuclear primacy.
I love the silly americans who are under the delusion that russian and chinese missiles and nukes don't work for some reason. And further believe that america would somehow not be glassed over entirely in the event of a war with either of them.
War with China? War with Russia? Better make sure it's over something that actually matters, cus that's end game stuff right there.
Better dead than Red, you malcontent pinko hippy! And get a goddamn haircut!!!
Here let me hold him down while you kick him.
Regular ZH readers might not believe this but I have a really comfortable, well-worn redneck background established during the 70's and 80's back when Communism was the only real "-ism". I bring that out sometimes when I'm in a playful mood. Otherwise of course I'm an axe-wielding progressive maniac or something, I haven't decided. Oh and I've taken up writing porn, I hope that evens everything out.
Flanders Field is full of the macho patriots that are so tough they can withstand bullets. The real men are the men who avoid war because war slaughters innocents – innocents by the millions.
And, worst of all, the wars are not originated by patriots; the biggest wars have been fought for the profits of the bankers; the world wars were banker-wars.
As far as "better dead than Red," that was a propaganda slogan to criticize opposition to war. But those Reds are now in full bloom in positions of influence in the United States and the United States is now fully partnered with Red China to the detriment of U.S. workers and their futures.
It was Henry Kissinger, in 2011 as the Communist Party of China confidently celebrated its 90th anniversary, who was back in Beijing passing the baton of global leadership on to his hosts. Opening a conference of China's most important think tank on globalization, Kissinger compared China today to the U.S. in 1947:
“Kissinger told his hosts that while this transition from one system to another will likely take another 30 years, China's role will only grow because it is obliged by its own self-interest to shape the global system that has shifted away from its ‘North Atlantic pole’ toward China and the emerging economies.”
Apparently, now, US policy is better Red than free.
Nice. +tons
Most of your post is valid but your first para is simply disgusting. I really doubt many of those men in Flanders ever believed they could withstand bullets. But they did fight for their countries and died for them.
It may be true that others engineered war but once that happens you can either run away, which is apparently your preferred option, or fight for your people and country.
Your comment about those who have died in war is just arrogant and sleazy. Perhaps you lack the courage and spirit of self-sacrifice they displayed.
I am issuing a warning to young men not to die any longer for a banker-orchestrated World Empire, not to die for tyranny, not to die for AIPAC foreign policy.
Not to be like Dylan’s John Brown, “Only one more puppet in their play/And through the roar and smoke, that string, it finally broke,/And a blast of fire blew my eyes away.
“When the young man tried to walk, his mother was still in shock,/As she saw that medal brace that helped him stand./But as they turned to go, he held his mother close,/And he dropped his medals down into her hand.”
By the way, how dare you accuse me of running away from a fight. Just who do you think you are talking to?
The audience to fight for another run-up war for "your people and country” in Ukraine or another Iraq isn't you, it's the potential patriot, the young man who will fight and die to support the Fed’s banking empire, the ”dumb kid on the block” Jon Carroll calls Lenny.
I prefer him not to die.
Jon Carroll’s The Decision to Kill People, February 18, 1998 (SF Gate):
The thing about war is: Lots of people die. We don't seem to talk about that much, when we talk about war... We don't say: "Our plan is to kill a lot of Iraqis while accepting the death of some Americans," although that is in fact our plan…
WE ARE ABOUT to kill some more Americans and Iraqis as a favor to our friends. That's what we're saying. Not that our friends are grateful -- they won't even let us stage the attack from their territory. Our dear friend Israel is sure grateful, but not to the extent that its current government will obey the U.N. resolutions or negotiate in good faith with the Palestinians.
We're the big dumb kid on the block. Yeah, Lenny, you go beat up Saddam. We'll all be grateful, sure. We'll be your friend. You can come to our clubhouse. Bang bang, he's dead, ha ha ha! Good going, Lenny.
TODAY AT 11 a.m., sundry administration officials will go on television to "educate" the public about the need to kill people. Be sure to watch. See if they explain to the future widows and widowers of America why all the death is necessary.
See if they can explain why the economic boycott that was supposed to cripple Iraq merely exacerbated the problem. See if they reveal to you that the same brilliant minds that argued for the economic boycott are now pushing the air strikes..
What we have is the big dumb kid standing tall. What we have is the moral equivalent of the Bay of Pigs.
Me, I keep coming back to D-Day. I keep coming back to how much horror there is even in a necessary war. I keep seeing bodies in the sand. This just in: An "air strike" is not a video game; it's a form of murder.

Russia has been hard at work modernizing and equipping ALL its forces over the last10-12 years.
Most of their systems are on par or better than HATO.
You must be a silly European, good luck surviving this one. By the way at least those missles will break down well before they hit the US. You guys better watch out..............
The problem, as always, is government.
