Russia allegedly blew up an old US spy satellite in order to create a debris field which causes navigational hazards for Iridium satellites. How should the US respond to this hostile act?
>allegedlynothingburger + screencap thread
US won't do shit, US needs space more than Russia does. No space = no GPS = no war. Russia can use ground-based navigational aids to provide their GNSS system inside their sphere of influence, like we can, but outside the sphere they will become targets.Gonna have to go back to using sextants and very precise clocks and things, it'll be fun. They'll need to raise the IQ bar for officers in the military by a good 40 points. Naaaah, just kidding there tootsie pops - you ladies are doing as well as you can, and can be expected.

>>543462284they should recycle that shit
>>543462434>US won't do shit, US needs space more than Russia does. So much this. Its insane how many people don't even think about it.America's current biggest weakness is space. Between GPS, all the high-res imaging and Starlink, all Russia/China need to do to basically neutralize the US is to nuke the orbit a couple times. Sure they'll suffer some damage too, but the US being by far the most reliant on orbital infrastructure would suffer the most by far as well.

>>543462284>How should the US respond to this hostile act?They should fuck off
>>543462757So you admit that Russia cannot actually create anything or help advance humanity, but can only destroy.
>>543462284Blow up their Nord stream pipeline? Oh wait they already did that.

Shitty muttkike satelite.
