What did I think of it?I learned from watching a war game simulation of a preemptive US strike that every ICBM silo in Russia the US targets would require the nukes to be ground burst, meaning the sites and surrounding areas will be irradiated for generations. >>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hH-K7X5n-vM
>>215561685Now imagine Trump, Hegseth, and the DOGE boys making all those decisions
>>215561718This isn't "The View", candyass.
USA will very quickly have the capability of 150 metric tons of payload to Low Earth Orbit per launch via SpaceXImagine how many brilliant pebbles and X-Ray Lasers could be sent to orbit to smash Russhit ground based nukes (and military bases, power plants, C&C) within hoursThe days of Space Shuttle or Barbarian MM for launching payloads is over
>>215562084Even if "Golden Dome" was 99.9% effective, something like a dozen MIRVs could still get through and smash several American citiesAnd Russia/China have low-range nuclear cruise missiles, nuclear submarines, and suitcase nukes for if SDI becomes a thing, since before Reagan was elected
>>215561685is a great flick but some of it was a bit sillyespecial not launching more gbi if they still had the window, they stressed that this was the pivotal moment and that if this nuke falls they prove they are weak and that would provoke additional attackbut nah we don't use them because we might need them later
>>215562181Can't they detect suitcase nukes? I think they have satellites that can look for this kind of thing.
The premise of the movie that they couldn't deduce who launched the missile due to a computer hack seems a little far fetched given all the experts, surveillance equipment and intelligence resources the US government has.
