US To China: 'Infrastructure Bank' This! - Test-Fires ICBM As A "Visual To The World"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

With allies migrating en masse to China's new infrastructure bank (and even the US having to admit it will 'cooperate'), it appears America has fallen back on what has worked for it in the past to ensure the world's largest creditor remains the world's reserve currency ad inifinitum - rattle its nuclear missile sabre... As the following clip shows, The US Air Force just test-fired a Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile from California, providing a "visual to the world."

As RT reports, an intercontinental ballistic missile was fired early Monday from a facility in California, the US Air Force announced, saying the tests were a message to the world about Washington's nuclear capabilities.

The Minuteman III missile was fitted with a “test re-entry vehicle” instead of a live thermonuclear warhead, and was test-launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base (AFB) in California at 03:36 local time (10:36 GMT), according to the Air Force statement.

 

"With these launches, we not only verify our processes and the ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missile) weapon system, we provide a visual to the world that the Minuteman III is capable of striking pretty much anywhere with extreme precision," said Lt. Col Tytonia Moore of the 90th Missile Wing, based out of the Francis E. Warren AFB in Wyoming, according to the statement.

 

The "Mighty Ninety" is one of the USAF’s three missile wing commands – the other two being the 91st at Minot AFB in North Dakota and the 341st at Malstrom AFB in Montana. There are roughly 450 ICBMs between the three.

Take that China! Can't catch one of those in a fishing net...

Well, ya gotta get your "Sampson Option" toys from somewhere, right? /sarc

Seriously, though - this isn't anything really that unusual.  They've been conducting periodic F.O.O.T. shots (Follow On Operational Tests) for years - I never thought of them as a show of force.  They yank birds out of the ground at one of the missile bases, ship 'em to Vandenburg, drop them in one of their LF's and fire them.  The Minuteman III has three MRV positions and they usually "officially" carry one "iron bomb" test vehicle - that leaves two seats on the bus that are open .... a perfect opportunity to put something ELSE in orbit.... (former 91st SMW guy - Why not Minot?  Freezin's the Reason ...)

The Chinese missile launch off San Diego, however, was a direct FUCK YOU to the psychos at the Pentagon.  I'm sure more than one pair of Stars-and-Stripes emblazoned Depends was sucked into a crusty old butthole that day.

Paveway IV's picture

I'm surprised that the Minuteman III (supposedly) almost reaches the top of the low-level earth orbit range, Trogdor. Somehow I just pictured them flying around much lower. They only seem to test launch these things - that the public hears about - every year or so. I would think they would be 'tested' more frequently if you can lob a one-ton satellite into orbit at the same time.

My favorite key-turner pic was something like this one from years ago of a Minot crew. They title was "What is this a picture of?" and the answer was "Then end of your AF career." The implication that simply being assigned to a Minuteman launch crew WAS the end of your AF career - at least for the unfortunate LOs. I notice that in this particular pic, the Free Wings happy hour at the O club must start promptly at 3:00. Either that, or they're waiting for the phone call - and the phone isn't plugged in! I also love how Loral made the launch switches warhead-shaped. Those guys!

At least the missile guys have the comfort of knowing they no longer have the most dead-end career in the AF nowadays - drone pilots have them beat all to hell.

Paveway IV's picture

You obviously have no idea what I'm talking about, Tzanchan. The AF is slightly over 1% Jewish as a declared faith. SAC senior officers and their chair-polishing bosses at the Pentagon are probably 30% or 40% Jewish, the rest seem to be Mormon or Fundamentalist Christians. It's lead to a number of standing inside AF jokes about deploying ICBMs and B-52s. There has been a huge purge of senior officers in all the AF commands lately, but SAC seems to have recieved much of the joy. 

No, nobody seriously believes the Jewish officers secretly plot to destroy Iran if they ever get close to the launch switch. In fact, a lot of them are pretty liberal Jews that would probably speak out against Israel's, or more specifically Likud/Nettanyahu's policies given the chance. Except speaking out would end their AF careers.

I'm far more worried about the motives and morals of the elected idiots in D.C. than I ever would be about the millitary.

really? Russia has more nukes than the USA and Russia also has the Perimeter. Striking Russia would cause the destruction of the USA for sure, because the Perimeter is programmed to launch all remaining Russian nukes at once at the USA (if the computer system detects a nuclear hit on the Russian soil). That means thousands of nukes flying....ugh....And even the stupid neocons must know that. Do they really think they would be able to survive in some kind of a bunker or what??? So how could this show be directed at Russia? I dont think so. But these people in Washington are so psychotic that one never knows....perhaps we really should pray to be forgiven our sins....

An example of fail-deadly deterrence, it can automatically trigger the launch of the Russian intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) if a nuclear strike is detected by seismic, light, radioactivity and overpressure sensors

 

Wow. I am so thankful that meteorites never slip into the Siberian Tundra and expode in the air. And I am thankful that the Russians do not have exploding Nuke Reactors,  like the Ukranian CHERNOBYL.

 

That might trigger the seismic, light, radioactivity and overpressure sensors and cause an unintended Nuclear Holocaust.

 

What? Chernobyl is a RUSSIAN design and there are Reactors all over Russia with that same design and aging?

 

What? Large Meteors have exploded over Siberia TWICE in a century?

You cannot formulate a coherent counterargument to my claims.

 

The quote at the top is directly from the Wikipedia article.

 

I can demonstrate the Tungasja Event in Siberia and I can document the recent event.

 

Furthermore I can document the Nuke Reactor accident in Ukraine in 1986.

 

And you believe that it is safe for Russia to activate this system with the many inherent weak links?

 

Too bad it casts a poor light upon a Government to which you are loyal. Personally I am loyal to NO GOVERNMENT nor do I misplace my faith in that.

 

Your loyalty will set you up for disillusionment at the very best. It may end up costing you your life in a Nuclear Holocaust which the human leaders of Russia make a grave mistake and act on poor information.

 

After all Russians are humans who are prone to making the same errors in judgment as the rest of humanity.

 

So go ahead and junk away. Bot it will not change the reality. Hell it will not change most people's perceptions.

I was inclined to junk you b/c of Chernobyl, but didn't: you are definitely right about Siberia and meteors. Not only Siberia - many of those things stay undetected in the vast lands of Russia and Kasachstan.

Chernobyl was not a failure of design, it was the military conducting some experiment. Which blew up in their faces. Harrisburg on the other hand...?

 

Now for something completely different:

Do you have a special technique or machinery (like a centrifuge or special blow torch) to melt your gold atoms into a nugget, which you extract from mobile phones and mainboards if I recall it correctly? My problem is: Before I tried it myself, I took the gold to my dentist who has his own lab, and let him do the melting. But now he's retired, and I don't have the resources to copy his technique. So, I tried it with a small blow torch, and almost 1/10 of an ounce blew up in my face, on my walls etc.

May I ask about your method, Tom?

Thanks in advance!

I use a Graphite Crucible and MAPP Gas torch. I think that acetylene with oxygen is much too hot. and there is too much pressure. Use some borax as a flux to pull any impurities.

 

I start by having the flame go across the crucible and then when it starts to congeal then I will use a little more direct flame.

 

Here is a video on melting.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOH9djcbdic

 

Moose Scrapper is pretty good.

 

Pay attention to what Moose Scrapper at the end of the video and he basically says what I just wrote.

 

I have had a foundry/forge which is custom fabricated. So I have another method available as well.

 

I like graphite rather than ceramic. They are a little more expensive but it is wiser to spend the extra bucks.

 

Hope that it helps.

It is more than evidential that the Russians are not stupid. (Hell they have Nukes, an orbiting Space Lab, transportation and support to and from that lab, etc.)

 

But the Russians are also human beings. And human beings are prone to making mistakes, at times, on a grandiose scale with catastrophic results.

 

It is just something to keep in mind when singing the praises of the Russian Repunlic.

 

They are no better than, nor are they any worse than, the Government which claims ownership over us.

 

Anything other than that is either ignorant or stupid.

http://www.spacedaily.com/reports/US_to_Scrap_Delta_IV_Launch_Vehicle_in_Favor_of_Russian_Made_Rocket_999.html

 

Yeah. America decided to scrap the Delta IV Heavy Lift.

 

From the article...

 

The use of the Delta IV space launch vehicle will be discontinued in favor of the Atlas V that uses the Russian made RD-180 rocket to launch US national security payloads into space, United Launch Alliance (ULA) President and Chief Executive Officer Tory Bruno said.

"Delta IV is entirely redundant to the Atlas V in terms of its performance," Bruno stated in a US House Armed Services Committee hearing on space programs on Tuesday.

"In this new environment, where the policy has changed to assure access through the existence of two providers, I will now retire the Delta medium class of space launch vehicles," Bruno added.

The ULA, a Boeing-Lockheed Martin joint venture providing launch services to the US government, uses the Russian RD-180 rocket to power the Atlas V launch vehicle into space.

Bruno explained that retiring the Delta IV vehicle will allow ULA to reduce the cost of each launch, currently running $400 million per heavy payload.

ULA will consolidate resources into the Atlas IV and to develop a new rocket to replace the Russian made RD-180, he said.

The 2015 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) prohibits the US Department of Defense from awarding or renewing contracts for launch vehicles that use Russian-made rockets. Under the NDAA, the current ULA contract to use the Russian RD-180 rocket runs until 2019 and will not be affected.

Bruno noted that ULA maintained both the Delta IV and Atlas V in order to meet US government requirements to have two launch systems concurrently to ensure access to space in the event of failure or a problem.

To meet the new government requirement to replace the RD-180, Bruno said ULA has developed two partnerships with the US space companies Blue Origin and Aerojet Rocketdyne. ULA will decide which of the two forthcoming rockets to use based on when each model can be ready.

There could be a two to five year gap, however, if a US-made rocket is not developed before the NDAA clause goes into effect, according to the US Air Force.

To fill the gap, the US government has sought to license the US company Space X to be an alternative provider of national security payload launches. Space X argues it can compete with ULA by developing a cheaper rocket before the United States runs out of RD-180s.

 

This originates from an Australian run website. You know? One of the former colonies of the British Crown?  Aussies, and their Government policies, are rather friendly towards America.

 

So we will end up totally reliant on Russian engines for our EELVs until a replacement can be designed and implemented.

 

You ought to subscribe so that you have a clue about that which you write about...

 

Hell...Our "spacefaring nation" cannot even orbit a man without the help of the Russians...or...er...China.

 

That is actually shameful.

 

They are the only two nations with Human Spaceflight capabilities.

Europe is working on that:

'France Moves to Make ‘Conspiracy Theories’ Illegal by Government Decree' "Political elites and super-bureaucrats are worried. It’s becoming harder to control consensus reality.

A history stitched together by lies and cover-ups, political assassinations, slight-of-hand false flag deceptions, secret societies, dual loyalties and stolen fortunes – this has been the exclusive privilege of organized crime and the ruling elite for centuries.

Putting aside history’s ‘big ticket’ items though, the real reason for this authoritarian trend is much more fundamental. By knocking out their intellectual competition, political elites and their media moguls hope to minimalize, and thus eliminate any alternative analysis and opinion by applying the completely open-ended and arbitrary label of “extremist” to speech. They want to wind back the clock, where a pre-internet, monolithic corporate media cartel held a monopoly on ideas."

Do you really believe everything that the US Government says that they do, or, that they do not do?

 

Every single statement which your CURRENT Government makes today needs to be taken with an extreme dose of skepticism.

 

Obama is a PSYCHOPATHIC LIAR. So was George W. Bush. So is Jeb Bush or Hilarity Clit-on. (So is Putin, Mitterrand, Merkel, et al. ALL OF THEM.)

 

THEY LIE. THEY ALL LIE. MOST OF THE TIME THEY ARE LYING.

 

Rule of thumb. If ANY Government declares that they have done something then the best bet is to assume otherwise and that the statement was issued as propaganda to achieve a short term political goal or manipulation.

 

That means YOUR GOVERNMENT.

When the Soviet Union moved missiles into Cuba, some 90 miles away from the US. President Kennedy got really upset and America backed him. When President Obama moved troops into Ukraine, and Nato moved armored vehicles and warplanes into countries near or bordering Russia, Americans were mostly clueless, but I bet the Obaminoids would support Obama if they knew what he did and where Ukraine even is. Someone should ask Obama, or at least Josh Earnest, why one is okay (Ukraine) and the other (Cuba) not.

The issue of using A-bombs against Japan, a country which attacked the USA (granted there were non-military provocations), is something we'll have to disagree about if I take your comment as a criticism. I, and many of my contemporaries, had fathers serving in the Pacific during WW II, and are glad that those bombs saved our fathers, uncles, etc., from having to participate in the planned invasion of Japan. Operation Olympic would have cost far more Japanese lives than were lost due to the A-bombs. And from a different perspective, would you rather have been in Hiroshima and incinerated instantly or in Dresden, where countless thousands died in the non-nuclear firestorms the Allied bombers started?

If believing that somehow comforts you, then read no further.

The Japanese tried to surrender multiple times. On January 20, 1945, two days before meeting with Churchill and Stalin in Yalta, FDR received a 40-page memorandum from MacArthur outlining five separate surrender overtures from Japan, offering surrender terms virtually identical to the ones ultimately accepted.

In April and May 1945, Japan made three attempts through neutral Sweden and Portugal to bring the war to a peaceful end.

By early July the US had intercepted messages from Togo to the Japanese ambassador in Moscow, showing that the Emperor himself was taking a personal hand in the peace effort, and had directed that the Soviet Union be asked to help end the war.

http://www.ihr.org/jhr/v16/v16n3p-4_Weber.html

The atom bombs were dropped to send a message to the Soviets, that is all.

And from a different perspective, would you rather have been in Hiroshima and incinerated instantly or in Dresden,

...or the equally horrific ones in Tokyo during the summer of 1945

where countless thousands died in the non-nuclear firestorms the Allied bombers started?

+1, but there is an even simpler perspective: Japan attacked the US because it was subject to an embargo by the US, particularly in oil

now, a simple question: why invade at all? why insist on a total victory? isn't it usually totalitarian regimes that insist on such things?

the US could have called it quits when the Japanese fleet was sunk. no fleet, no projection of power

the real reason for the Japanese-American conflict was elsewhere: in China. And boy, there is no Chinese that does not know that very well

Recent events remind me more of a game called Diplomacy than the better-known Risk. In Diplomacy the players, representing different countries, negotiated with other players regarding supporting or opposing other players' planned moves. After each round of negotiations the players would convene and execute their plans, hoping that the negotiated support would be announced by someone who had promised to help. Said support didn't always materialize, as players could promise as much support as they wanted but only could fulfill one of those promises. It could really get nasty. Now we watch as one European country after another suddenly starts getting cozy with China regarding economic issues, and acting reluctant to oppose Russia militarily.

Obama would have sucked at Diplomacy. He and his Secretaries of State suck at diplomacy. It's as if Valerie Jarrett was running it.
