>>62557284Damn, maybe the schizo's were right. Am I really to believe this third world country has actually properly maintained thousands of warheads and hundreds of delivery systems?
>>62557377>>62557291>4thGuess I should've read the next post. They're desperate to remind people of NOOOOOKS and forgot nukes are expensive and highly technical to maintain and use.
>>62557396>Believing that russians are shit at maintaining their equipment means you are a shizoRude.
>>62557396until before the war the strategic rocket forces and the boomers were getting most of the Russian defence budget. They realized early that they could only pay for either the nukes or the army and they went with the strategic option and let the army rot.
>>62557291I imagine the Ruskies must be shitting their pants right now since their deterrence isn't worth shit. Unfortunately for the rest of us it means they'll probably try to unfuck things, but, fingers crossed, they'll probably just embezzle the funds allocated to it, again.
>>62557380bro that crater is smaller than my backyard
>>62557428it appears that the strategic forces used that budget to build yachts and install toilets in their dachas
>>62557430anon.... look at your backyardI have bad news
Again? Didn't this happen like two other times since the Special Needs Operation?
>>62557284spicy! That shouldnt instill hope in russia's deterrence.
>>62557428...but now they have to throw money at the army, because they convert that money directly into blood for the blood god with signing bonuses and (haha as if they'd actually pay out) death bonusesSo does that mean the strategic forces will be choked of funding and even personnel by the war?

>>62557518The program started 20 years ago and around 100 billion has been spent. They just blew up 90 million.
>>62557447IIRC they already transferred the security forces meant to actually guard said nukes to the front pretty early in the SMO when it became clear they weren’t winning in two weeks.
>>62557528It's just an old design with electronic replaced. They couldn't skim as much for a new engine. 20 years, 100 billion. Maybe 1 billion has been actually spent on the program lol.
>>62557528throw weight to pack extra heavy mirvs
>>62557540SpaceX went from shack to Falcon 9 with not much more than that lol
>>62557547They are most likely using old rocket engines. They've been cannibalized. >>62557540It's been 10 years of a running joke. It cost a lot of money and parts to build high level rocket engines. The temperature and pressures get exotic. The programming is hard, controlling them is hard. Once you design it all, get everything running, turn it on, the vibrations might tear them apart. The Russians have alot of vibration issues with their shit. They never up grades they kept just trying to add parts and their rockets keep shaking themselves apart. From design to testing to flying to scaling these kinds of engines is at least 7 to 15 years.

Are their space capabilities (which had already stagnated for decades) gonna degrade like this, too, now that the U.S. et al. aren't relying on them anymore? Or are there enough interested thirdies to replace Western demand for R*ssian launch platforms?

>>62557284>>62557291So don't take this the wrong way, but I think we should do a full strategic launch on Russia, then send in the military to round up the survivors to be used as slaves for the purpose of turning Russia into a resource mine for westerners.
>>62557631>Terminated during launch>we did that part on purposeholy fucking copes

>>62557823>So don't take this the wrong way, but I think we should do a full strategic launch on RussiaReasonable.>then send in the military to round up the survivors to be used as slaves for the purpose of turning Russia into a resource mine for westerners.You go off the rails on this one though anon. Slave labor is obsolete and a proven expensive problem generator. It's bad for the slaver side too, discouraging productivity enhancing innovation, appropriate capital investment, and with a lot of negative incentives and potential for infection of the main culture eventually.So it's a lot more in line with civilized values, justice and good moderate sense to just exterminate all the survivors completely and wipe their filthy culture from the face of this world, then let private enterprise take care of value productive resource generation, recolonization etc. Though remember it'd be a long expensive process, we know for sure both Soviets and Russia have run environmental horror shows. And we'd have to do a sweep first, make sure there are no remaining biowarfare sites or the like just sort of sitting around rotting.
>>62558555He's proposing to enslave russians and send them to work in the mines only because this is an economically feasible way of raising their standard of living. It's quite benevolent, really.
>>62558555>Slave labor is obsolete and a proven expensiveNot if just work them to death.I hope slavery makes a comeback, I'd like to own a few

>>62557758>Or are there enough interested thirdies to replace Western demand for R*ssian launch platforms?With chinks doing their best to rip off starlink and having a lot of money to dump at it there's no future for russoids. You have king shit US, then chinks, then EU with more artisanal quantity launch capacity, then India with... fuck I don't even know but they can sort-of launch stuff sometimes. Russia has neither the tech to be competitive nor the money to subsidize the launches for anybody that isn't Russia.
>>62559073>why exactly is nafo not bombing moscow?As you just described we can sit back and do nothing and Russia will degrade on its own.
>>62559099It would undeniably be funnier if Moscow was bombed, especially by some tiny, literally who country like Estonia, than if it simply decays for the next forty years because oil prices go down and there's no plan B for the economy

>>62557428>They realized early that they could only pay for either the nukes or the armyAnd some clever middlemen then realized that nukes will never be actually used, and even if they were it would no longer be their problem soon after. So why not line some pockets instead?

>>625591841) you want money so you pretend they're a threat2) even if 95% of their garbage explodes in silos it still leaves 5% which has the potential for immense damage3) given the modern pussified sensibilities you probably don't get to be a higher-up if you think getting rid of the asiatic menace once and for all is something that should be done

>>62557284I wish we could know whether this is 100% pure domestic russian incompetence or if we have spooks in the rocket forces helping them
>>62559435It could honestly be either at this point, the FSB and other Puccian intelligence agencies are just buffoons these days, what with the number of fails we've seen from them
>>62559435Domestic, if we had spooks that well placed we wouldn't be showing our hand by using them for a test launch.
>>62559466>showing our handThey wouldn't be responsible for messing up test launches.They would be responsible for ensuring the entire nuclear force stays dysfunctional in the long term by encouraging natural russian traits such as rampant corruption.
>>62557304It crashed btw.
>>62559507lmao
>>62559507
>>62557744>Russia launches things into space often enoughSo when was their last successful launch?
>>62557291>liquid fueled ICBM>in 2024
>>62557304At this rate, I'm suspecting that this fucking glorified parade float has a higher operational success rate than the Sarmat. At least the owner presumably puts the effort into keeping his own damn car running.>>62557528Solid propellants require things like a functioning education system, aerospace industry, and keeping a lid on corruption.China for the same reason has ICBMs where they find the fuel tanks are full of water because the missile crews stole all of the actual fuel (which is EXTREMELY carcinogenic) and used it for cooking
>>62557291Wait wait wait, so it probably blew up during the fueling process... Do they not actually have any missiles prepped for launch at all? How are they gonna respond to a nuclear first strike like that?
>>62559554>and used it for cookingWhat won't the fucking chinks use for cooking, any random vermin and any random tainted oil
>>62559568don't think about that, big scary bear raah raise one eyebrow and all of hafo understand
>'We've got Sarmats'
>>62559539Yeah.It's not like its predecessor was any more reliable.Russia has always had a part of its nuclear arsenal in liquid-fueled silo-based heavy launch vehicles.I don't really know why. It's always been only a small part, around 50-150 launch vehicles, of their total arsenal. Everyone involved must have known that liquid fueled rockets are not good for a weapon that has to be on the ready 24/7 and launchable at a moment's notice.
>>62559507he didn't drive so good
>>62557428>Narrator: they also let the nukes rot.
>>62557441The other ones at least made it out of their silos.
>>62557734>blew that one up on purposeso did the Russians. now the congress won't greenlight a new missile system, because there's no threat

>>62557829It's called range safety, it's what china, russia and other third world countries don't do when their haywire rockets wipe out an entire chinsect village or vaporise the head of the rocket forces watching the launch.

>>62559671ITS LAUNCHING !!!!!!!AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>62559200If only 5% of their nukes make it out of their silos, the damage potential is VERY limited. It's likely that 100% of the 5% that launch would get shot down. Bonus round: vatniggerstan would have actually launched a first strike, meaning the entire shithole would be glassed within an hour or two. And, if just one vatnigger nuke managed to explode within 50 km of it's intended target, the glassing would not stop until the glass was very, very thick. Everywhere.Bring.It.

>>62557399(Russian) Nukes aren't real
Is there any value in faking an explosion at the test site for opsec purposes? To give the impression of a total failure of the program.
>>62560133Puccians aren't very good at opsec, only naked threats
>>62559578i mean fuelling is one thing if you use kerosene and lox, but RS-18/28 both use hydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide. isn't it somewhat insane to fuel and empty 200 tons hypergolic fuel inside a silo with soviet tech and 16 warheads on top? like that stuff explodes by itself, is highly corrosive and creates explosive fumes and normal pressure.
>>62560133I don't think it's very secure to embolden your enemies by showing that your ultimate weapon is a failure

>>62559693>>62559780>what do you mean not the same car its even got the giant rocket>how many of these things do they have?more than the actual missiles anonthey even made a rally for them in moscow>two of the sarmatmobiles broke down during it kek
I went to Russian 4chan and they're saying it was a Tomahawk attack on the launch silo.
>>62560225>anything but our own shitty missile failingWhy are snowniggers like this
>>62560227Dunno, but I find their Clancy-tier theories kinda amusinghttps://Russian 4chan/wm/res/3892965.html#9238768
>>62560181The old R-36 was the same.Frankly toxic hypergolic fuels are far simpler anything cryogenic, and probably even safer in such a setting. You can store that shit at room temperature for years. Cryogenics are fickle, boil off in minutes, cause icing issues and fueling right before launch would lead unacceptable operational delays for a nuclear weapon.
>>62557284That looks like an ass. I guess that's what they meant by the ass is in the ass?
>>62560246The west:>We need to seriously increase our industrial base if we want enough shells to both supply Ukraine and bulk out our own warstocks in case of future conflictMeanwhile russia:>Big scary bear produce many shells be afraid>Is actually whoring itself out to norks and chinks for substandard ammoTalk softly and carry a big stick realism Vs gulaghomo posturing rooted in their inferiority complex.
>>62557464>What test was it that split in two in the air and then in two again? A year or so ago.Pretty sure that was a Chinese one.
>>62560284If russia has so much industry why does it need to whore itself out for ammo donations and send meat waves out to die in battle bukhankas? Post hand and electrical socket.

>>62560308I literally didn't, perhaps do the needful and ask your ESL school for a refund saar
>>62560284You see, Russia has bigger wartime industry, because that is what its industry has slowly been transformed into, NATO doesn't treat it as a war, it just sends some stockpiles to Ukraine, without gearing up its industrial capacity to make more shells and such

The femanon in question turned around and called him weak for not staying hard during this discussion about lube substitutes and bodily fluids. When people talk about trying to shock or gross out 4chan, I often think of that event.

Back in the 90's I talked with a couple of guys who did metal workshop automation, they told me that euros and asians invested in advanced CNC machines to boost production, while americans fired their old staff and hired $7 an hour mexicans and kept using their old lathes from the 1940s and 50's. There is a deep pervasive myth that "labor costs" are the reason for outsoucing, but the truth is that massive capital investments in europe & asia has meant that they have way bigger production per staff member than american metal workshops, and they have plenty of experienced workers capable of using CNC lathes. Meanwhile, america, not so much. Replacing your workers with even cheaper workers means that you get a short term immediate return on your action with no cost, while doing massive capital investments means that you get a long term large return on your action but it costs a lot. This rot has spread so deep now that even high end items like american airliners are falling apart from low quality workmanship and components.
>>62559578>Everyone involved must have known that liquid fueled rockets are not good for a weapon that has to be on the ready 24/7 and launchable at a moment's notice.Unlike solid fuel rockets, unfueled liquid propellant rockets lasts for decades without a decay in function. The KH-22s that russia fires at ukraine were made in the 60s and then stored. Solid fueled rockets develop cracks in the propellant over time and eventually they become dangerous to launch because they will explode.

Here's an excerpt from an old 2017 RAND corp paper on Russian space sector.>Corruption—Generally considered organic to the Russian economic system, corruption has become evident over the last few years in various aspects of the space sector. The most famous example of corruption is the construction of the Vostochny Space Launch center. Russians envisioned Vostochny in the 1990s as a replacement for the Russian reliance on Baikonur. Over the last few years there have been numerous public delays associated with the construction of the launch facility and several cases of managers and workers arrested for corruption. >Separately, in January 2017, Roscosmos announced it was withdrawing all second and third-stage engines for the Proton-M rocket, citing "technical reasons." >At the same time, Russian media reported that factory bosses manufacturing engines for Russia's Proton-M rocket may have swapped precious metals for cheaper alternatives, possibly leading to the failure of the Proton in December 2016.14>Elsewhere, there are reports of substantial percentages of state budgets siphoned from major programs and projects as a part of “overhead.”Surely the talent pool and technology supporting Russian civilian rockets and ICBMs have significant overlap. Of course there are also the sanctions to consider. Just add this to the pile of evidence for aerospace becoming a lost technology for Russia.

It's pretty hilarious how these ziggers try to hide/dilute the spread of news on /pol/ right nowA nuclear pants-shitting in russia is apparently accompanies by mlp ponies shitting in russian infosphere operationsWhat a toilet of a countryThanks for having better moderation, I try to respectfully adhere to board culture hereGreeting from /uhg/
>>62560779Its sort of hard to put Russia at a point of technical achievement because a lot of the reference points prior to that were the USSR and that was a whole other animal. A lot of that depending on having this massive population, a fairly decent education and higher education system up to about the mid-80's and it meant you could pull 'genius' motherfuckers out of the swamp by benefit of having that massive swathe of human resources. All those one in 50million kind of dudes who just are so much smarter than anyone else got picked up and put exactly in the hole they could do the most work and essentially cultivated for the state systems.Be that aerospace, engineering design, materials science and everything else that goes into rockets, planes and missilesThat kind of started dying off during the late 80's and it sort of meant that only the really old guys, greybeards and a handful of genius guys left, were the only ones holding the bag after the USSR popped. A lot of the very good ones that were still young enough just hopped the fence and fuckedoffski to somewhere with actual living standards that didn't involve living in a crime infested, frozen swamp.You sort of see it in their oligarchy and the directors, they're all well past shooting a hot load and probably should have retired 10-15yr ago, there is just no one to replace them though. They literally 'don't make em like that any more' and they will never do it again. Not that even with all that effort however, could they ever match western engineering and more importantly, processing power. The western systems found it hard to make a human computer, so they just decided you know, fuck it we'll make a computer that will solve a lot of slide rule business and scribbling.That pretty much booped the nose of Russia industry, plus a lot of it was just flogged off to the chinks for kilo of steel on dollar for machines and technology.
it was successful, it flew straight up for 3000 km and fell down on the launch pad as intended
>>62559693>The Russian Z-mobile with a mock-up of the Sarmat missile on the roof, which was travelling around Belarus this spring, was involved in an accident in Tver region of the Russian Federation. >This was reported in the evening on December 20 by the Mash telegram channel, close to the Russian security forces.>According to the publication, the car "turned into a pile of metal" after the accident with a French Renault on the M-10 motorway.>The driver of the Z-mobile explained that his car was beyond repair, but the Sarmat mock-up remained intact.>According to Renault driver Aleksey, a moment before the collision his airbag exploded out of the blue - because of this he lost control and crashed into the Z-mobile. There were no casualties.>Renault>airbag exploded out of the blueClearly frog sabotage at it againWell played DGSE kek

>>62561260>So why should the west be afraid again?A new reality in which russia has no nukes would mean that China could just walk into siberia unopposed and claim its resources, which the US cannot allow. And the russian far east and Siberia are large, and it would require considerable investment to put an occupation force there to keep the chinks out. Vietnam and Afghanistan will look like a joke.

>>62557744>spaceI always consider this too. But launching to space is slow and tedious, you can scrub with smallest sign of problems. ICBM should be like 24/7 clockwork. And this was a controlled test in what apparently seems like a complete underground launch pad with lab and diagnostics equipment, where they could stop and evaluate any problems.Exploding test article on fuel-up is akin to Elons starship experiments. Not a deployed detterent.
>>62557452A slur, like mulignan or n'wah
>>62561795Oh shut the fuck up you faggot ass europeon
>>62560762>Solid fueled rockets develop cracks in the propellant over time and eventually they become dangerous to launch because they will explode.Is it because the cracking increases the available surface area of the propellant, leading to it burning way faster than intended? I heard that's why Turk 8mm ammo is dogshit, can't imagine what that would be like scaled up to ballistic missile size.

>>62562442I'll have a brown post with a side of seething about the US, thanks.
>>62562442>capable of killing americans>implyingMaybe if a spook is around the silo before the inevitable failure.
>>62559578Perhaps some odd logic of maintaining multiple designs for redundancy? If you have a liquid fuel ballistic missile that is totally independent in design to the main solid fuel missile families, then problems with the main missile family that might arise in time don't mean your entire nuclear arsenal is incapacitated.
>>62559578>>62562786perhaps geography, thanks to their huge landmass they get more early warning time and get away with building heavy liquid fuelled rockets. also the benefit is the larger throw weight, variants of the R-36 carry either 10x1MT or 1x20MT warheads for that extra super villain feeling. Maybe also costs, liquid fuelled might simply be cheaper.
>>62557576Yeah, but SpaceX has something the Russian military doesn't have. Russian rocket scientist.
>>62560744That makes perfect sense. The old machine tools were often superb but they belong in the custom and repair machining world, not the production world. For example many successful US machine shops use WWII-era machine tools because they're a perfect fit, being large and precise. They use them to make and repair replacement parts for specialty machinery and smol production runs. The equipment doesn't wear out if maintained. My bro has a beautiful early 1900s Cincinnati shaper which is rarely used but was paid off by a single job decades ago.BTW since all the pre-CNC classic firearms were made on manual machine tools (some quite complex like Brown and Sharp automatic screw machines) they are relatively easy for hobbyists to manufacture for themselves.
>>62561208To prevent tearing at stress raisers.
>>62563004>shaper which is rarely used but was paid off by a single jobBullshit. I don't think anyone has ever made back the cost of a shaper with paid work.
>>62561876>>62557428Just because a lot of money was allocated, doesn't mean a lot of money made it there.

>>62562380Yes, rocket propellant deflagrates at the designed operating pressures of a solid rocket, add a few cracks though and you increase the burn rate leading to higher pressure and eventually detonation, in the worst case scenarios.

not reaaaally that related, but i never see this get talked about, and its metal. the Nedelin disaster in 1960, the soviets were testing ICBM's, and while setting up the launch pad for a test flight someone accidentally hit the launch button like days before it was even close to ready. a bunch of military officials, including the guy the whole operation was named after, nedelin, were all hanging out right under the rocket thrusters and a bunch of automatic camera's started and recorded it. 58-300 deaths.

>>62565224i believe that it could just be a short circuit like wiki says, people were doing crazy experimental shit on the fly with barely any safety. and as odd as it is for it to be recorded, if you were assassinating someone would you want it recorded? dunno.swear i read an alternate version that said something along the lines of someone just accidentally hitting fire and a bunch of safeties just not being in place by coincidence.
