Few of the current generation know how close our world was at the brink of nuclear abyss on Black Saturday, 27, October 1962, at the peak of the Cuban missile crisis. And those who know about this, when asked about the causes of this nightmare, most likely will say about the deployment of their nuclear missiles in Cuba by the Russians. And practically no one can say what pushed the Russians to such a step. It is not customary to recall this. But this crisis, which almost initiated the nuclear war, was caused by the deployment of Jupiter medium-range missiles in Turkey by the United States in NATO (a NATO member country), which in less than 1961 minutes could have wiped off parts of the USSR, including Moscow. Khrushchev responded accordingly, making it clear to Kennedy that such a game can be played together. The catastrophe was avoided only after the Russians received a promise to withdraw American missiles from Turkey.



Do you think the lesson in Washington was learned? Very wrong. The multi-star generals from the Pentagon were ready to eat Kennedy alive for not allowing them to turn our land into radioactive ashes. And a little later, they once again tried to bring the "apocalypse" closer. It did not work in Turkey, it turned out in Germany, where the Pershing mobile ballistic missiles and Tomahawk land-based cruise missiles were pushed. The Russians did not tolerate giving the answer with a "bouquet" of "SS-20", "SS-4", "SS-5", "SS-12" and put forward "SS-23" into the territory of the GDR to cover threatening positions " Pershing. " And the devil knows how everything would end, considering Reagan’s cowboy chase, but Mikhail Gorbachev’s softness and pliability saved the world, quite deservedly (unlike Barack Obama) awarded the Nobel Prize for his contribution to peace.

It was thanks to Gorbachev that a compromise was reached that determined the possibility of signing the Treaty on the Elimination of Intermediate-Range and Short-Range Missiles (INF) in 1987. The treaty, it should be noted, is beneficial primarily to the United States, since the USSR agreed to include the SS-23 in the treaty, although they did not fall under the definition of the INF. The world breathed a sigh of relief. The arrows on the clock of the atomic war were turned back.

But some people were impatient to return the “happy” time when the Americans and Europeans were digging in the yards of atomic bunkers and stocking up on canned goods. Unilaterally, the "peacemaker" Obama withdrew the United States from the Treaty on the Limitation of ABM Systems. The radar and missiles went to Poland and the Czech Republic, right to the side of the Russians, who listened gloomily to the deceitful nonsense about the defense against Iran and North Korea and sent Iskander tactical complexes to Kaliningrad. And not only because the American anti-missiles are breaking the entire strategic balance to the hell, but also because the launchers of interceptor missiles can be adapted in the shortest possible time to launch ... Tomahawk cruise missiles! Here is such a gentleman's observance of the INF.

And what do you think, what kind of reaction did the Russian attempt to defend against the new threat provoke? That's right, a number of US congressmen offered to consider this a reason for withdrawing from the Treaty. I really want to dominate by juggling with nuclear warheads, and then some kind of restrictive treaty gets underfoot! Even cowboy Reagan didn’t allow such a thing. This rollback to the days of the Cold War will end very badly. And for all.

    At the beginning of the article, the author remembered the story, but for some reason considered that few people know why the USSR deployed missiles in Cuba. Then he zealously praised the one who ruined a vast country. And in conclusion, I made a clear conclusion to everyone
    This rollback to the times of the Cold War will end very badly. And for everyone.

      This is from the point of view of such citizens of the Russian Federation as Makarevich, it is necessary to bend under the interests of others. But, from the point of view of a resident of the West, everything that is useful to his country is right, therefore, the collapse of the GDR is positive for them, and a labeled good person.

        Please quote him where he says that
        need to cave in under the interests of others.
        I am not a fan of Makarevich, but the words in his song sounded differently:
        ... Do not bend under a changing world - it is better if it bends under us. One day he will bend under us ...
        And this confrontation with the West will not end in anything good. When the gun hangs on the wall for a long time, a manic desire arises to remove it and use it for its intended purpose. Who and when will pull the hook?

    It is becoming crowded on the planet, resources are limited, all this contributes to the growth of contradictions, in connection with which, some, some, some, mutually, consider it superfluous in this world and this process is no longer stopping. So, one way or another, despite the subjective understanding and attitude of people, the matter is inexorably and irreversibly leading to a big war.
    This rollback to the times of the Cold War will end very badly. And for everyone.

    I disagree with this, for many yes, but not for everyone, and this is another serious reason for starting a big massacre.

    Dear VO readers, the article provides inaccurate data. During the Cold War, Soviet submarines were off the coast of the United States whose mission was to deliver a nuclear strike against established targets. The Pentagon and the US Government have been notified. They feared this, and the Government of the USSR and the Warsaw Pact Command were in priority over the USA. Tagged, in the article he is called Gorbachev, just a criminal. He destroyed the USSR, surrendered to the USA the GDR and other countries of the Warsaw Pact. We had to live in peace with the USA, but the labeled and the Alkash upset the balance. No one was going to start a nuclear war, the author came up with this. Calculations and estimates showed that the United States would cease to exist in the event of a nuclear conflict. I have the honor.

        Dear Nord Ural, I am providing data for you.
        By 1989, the USSR Navy had 39 nuclear submarines, and in terms of the number of submarines we were significantly ahead of the United States. Each submarine was armed with 16 ballistic missiles. By the nature of work and service, I often had to be in Kamchatka then. After a 3-month hike in Paratunka, submariners regained their strength there. In the presence of the command of the USSR Ministry of Defense, I met with submariners. Have you been to Paratunka? If not, get there. Much will amaze you. I have the honor.

    GSS are much more vulnerable during the development of the nuclear scenario. They also understand this very well. Yellow stone and huge tsunamis on both coasts will not leave a chance for Amers. The center of the country will be covered by nuclear weapons.
    So you can safely go to an open confrontation - at the time of X, the Anglo-Saxons, as usual, drift and merge. There is no doubt about it. They have more to the extent of what to lose than we - and do the English geeks need this? And in any case, regardless of the result of the exchange of nuclear weapons, the Americans will never again become a superpower. Too big risks! Hence their sanctions, stink, fuss and barking. They will choke economically, although the time for the geeks does not remain at all.

      Well, the main share of the RF budget profit is the export of natural resources. And do you want to go into an open confrontation with NATO? Even Britain has a larger military budget than Russia.

        Nda here is another zombie.
        What difference will there be after nuclear weapons? The whole world economy will change in the most dramatic way, there will be no exchanges, stocks, reserve currencies, pension fords, no exports, most likely there will be no international trade. Who will lose more?
        Even Britain has a larger military budget than the Russian Federation.

        And how much Britain alone (after all, the budget is more so as not to defeat it) will last against the Russian Federation. Day two? Do you have any idea that the budget is somehow not very important?
        And NATO has more nuclear weapons than the Russian Federation.

        And who has more "the concept of acceptable damage" and "necessary to win damage to the enemy"? Think, read, maybe you will understand why even NATO is afraid to fight with the IC; I’m not talking about China and the Russian Federation

          Well, you know that Russia is no longer the key supplier of natural resources in the world, and if Russia leaves this market, then no global catastrophe will happen.
          And if the war begins with Britain, the Russian Federation will naturally not send its entire army to Britain, the Russian Armed Forces will still have to go through Europe, but if it does, then the US Armed Forces will already be in large numbers in Britain, and by the way, the British fleet is stronger than the fleet of the Russian Federation, and the main tanks of the Russian Federation is just the T-72, you yourself know which years (and see how they showed themselves in the Gulf War), and Britain relies more on its fleet, which is also more modern than the fleet of the Russian Federation.
          And I’ll also remind you about nuclear weapons, which Britain also has.

            If leaving the market does not happen, only the post that you commented not about leaving the market but about the war with the use of nuclear weapons After 5-6 thousand nuclear explosions will be a global catastrophe?
            RF Armed Forces will still have to go all over Europe

            What for? I did not say "the capture of England," "I spoke of the victory of the war over England."
            You do not seem to have read a single military doctrine, either valid or old. To win, by definition, it is not necessary to occupy the territory, it is enough to destroy a certain percentage of the military-industrial potential and population (that is, to cause certain damage). Why do we need to send tanks through the Lamansh for this, just a salvo of one regiment of the Strategic Missile Forces is enough.

The Russian fleet is still less supported by old submarines, which are still armed with P-15 missiles (missiles of the 60s), but no more.

                      And as for type-15, I’ll say that it operates in a formation in which there are PLO ships, and you know for a ship like him, with its performance characteristics, this is a serious drawback, but not a critical one.

              Comrade, before talking about the "European catastrophe" look at the numbers. What is the share of Russian gas and oil in Europe? The Europeans have evenly distributed their suppliers of gas and oil, and if one of them does not, then nothing will be catastrophic for Europe.
              For you, the number of fleets is the main indicator? For me and many others, the main indicator is the quantity / quality ratio. In your opinion, will Russia send its entire fleet to Britain? Now the remnants of the "mosquito fleet" of the USSR are outdated, and new ships are released for a long and irregular period. the radius of action of the AUG air wing is much larger than the radius of the RCC. That is, they are already on their way to sink enemy ships, without entering their defeat zone.
              The T-90 is a deep modification of the T-72 tank, it’s a shame not to know. Read about the application yourself, too lazy to get on the Internet?
              They are more modern than the total majority of Russian ships, and they are kept in excellent conditions and are doing the right thing when repairing, and Russia even has the 1991 Admiral Kuznetsov so smoking that the British began to fear for their ecology.

                  Comrade 40% is not so critical, you can harness other suppliers, who will gladly reimburse you for gas and oil.
                  There is no AUG, but in 2-3 years they will be with the F-35 on board, while the Russian fleet does not even have an aircraft carrier in a serious project. Moreover, do not forget that in case of an attack, Britain will have its own ground bases, and the Russian fleet will operate away from their shores, and of course there will be supply problems that the British will just crash. There will also be a lot of anti-submarine helicopters, which Britain has a lot. About type 45, too, don’t forget, they have locally for mooring mines for launching the Kyrgyz Republic Tomagavk.And normal UDCs in the Russian Federation have not learned how to do it. And the F-35 can be placed on UDCs, here you have a new light aircraft carrier. And do not forget that the British Air Force has an air force base throughout Europe, the Russian fleet will still need to be Britain.

                  You just look at the T-90 and T-72 do not see any similarities? Or go to the Internet and you will find out that the T-90 is a deep modification of the T-72.

                  Have you seen the “Admiral Kuznetsov?” Look and you’ll be horrified at what conditions the crew lives there, and compare with any NATO ship

                  Speaking of comparison. Comparison of fleets is not only a comparison of their numbers and quality, but also a comparison of the location of naval bases.

                    You reason in the logic of the store owner. Right there - yes, 40% of the volume is not so critical, for the reasons stated by you. But with gas everything is much more complicated, because in order to sharply increase its supply it is necessary to sharply increase its production, which is not so easy, and for a number of countries it is completely impossible. If everything had been so simple, Europe would have long given up Russian gas.

                    Firstly, it is completely unclear why you are comparing the current position of the Russian Navy with some kind of rosy future Navy. Secondly, you cannot even compare it correctly. In 2-3 years, at best, the British will have only one aircraft carrier, Queen Elizabeth, and in the most perfect case, there will be 24 F-35V on it. And in this most remarkable variant for the KVMF, its real combat power will not be much different from the Kuznetsov with its two dozen MiG-29Ks and several Su-33s.

It is unlikely that we are going to land in England, there is no strength for this. So, the task of the Navy will be to destroy the infrastructure of the UK, which the Russian Navy is capable of doing even from the Barents Sea (Granat cruise missiles, which are equipped with the same Pike. It’s nothing like the KVMF and will have to go to our shores to fend off the threat .
                    You can still cut the British communications, destroying transports, but here's the thing - for this, you do not need to come close to the shores of foggy Albion :)))
                    And further. Speaking about the bases of England, you forget that the Russian Federation has such a thing - YES, that is, long-range aviation, Tu-95 and Tu-160, which are capable of wiping British airbases (British naval aviation is already based on three airbases) into powder (conventional weapons ) - at least in the area of ​​operations to destroy the naval fleet of the KVMF, if it will be necessary.

                    Therefore, I repeat, it is necessary to compare what is, and not fantasies about what could be. In fact, today England is hardly capable of providing missiles with its fleet in the amount of full ammunition, and you dream of some Tomahawks :)

But the main thing is not this, but that England has NO combat aircraft in its fleet. So who are you going to base on these bases is a mystery.
                      No, well, you can certainly recall 140 air force eurofighters, but this is the case ... The problem is that England has absolutely no protection against massive attacks by cruise missiles. And we can arrange this without entering the radius of interception of Eurofighter. Therefore, these fighters - the last hope of England and they will not be sent to any Europa - will guard their airspace.

                      The question is that taking the majority of modern tanks, we can easily trace its continuity with models of the 60-70s. For example, the world's best production tank (Leopard 2A6) is nothing more than a modernization of the Leopard 2 developed in the late 60s. And this did not prevent him from being the best :)))

Corvettes with Caliber will not do much useful, there are too few corvettes in the northern fleet of the Russian Federation, and they have few missiles, for strategic purposes, maximum coast protection. The only surface threat to the Navy is Peter the Great, but this goal probably it will be one of the first for the British Trident 2.

                      The launch range does not matter much, since neither the KVMF nor the Navy of the Russian Federation has any reliable means for monitoring the surface situation at a distance of 500 km from the ship’s warrant and beyond. In addition, it should be understood that LRASM shooting at 900+ km is available only for Americans, but not for the British.

                      But the saddest thing for England is not this. The fact is that England has not been a self-sufficient country for 100500 years, and in order to maintain its current population it needs a constant supply of everything, including food. It is enough to burn 44 large English coastal cities (with their ports, infrastructure, etc.) - and England will be reliably cut off from the outside world. So the next war of England after the nuclear war with the Russian Federation is a civil war. For the food.
                      But we, of course, are not so cruel - the number of nuclear weapons in the Russian Federation guarantees the impossibility of the emergence of cannibalism on Foggy Albion laughing

                      The Russian language was written to you - 24 F-35V until 2023. And this is what the British consider to be an accelerated purchase, i.e. it still may not pass.
                      In other words, in the next 6 years, the second AB is doomed to be a helicopter carrier. The aircraft carrier, so you know, is not only a ship, but also an air group, which the British for the second ship at such a pace and by 2030 will not collect.

                        Comrade, the radius of action of the RCC Caliber in the export version is somewhere around 300 km, but 500 km for its fleet as a maximum.
                        Comrade Britons will shoot Trident-2 not only in Russian cities, but also in the warehouses of Russian YaB, but even 225 YaB is enough to destroy almost all cities of the Russian Federation with more than a million inhabitants, although I do not live in Russia, but I know how many cities you have "millionaires", the Russian Federation will simply not have anything to fight for, maximum revenge.
                        And you didn’t know that Britain and the United States had a "special relationship"? If necessary, they will deliver the AGM-158C LRASM with a range of 900 km.
                        About Peter the Great. The comrade of the British also has its own satellite constellation, Tridents-2 can hit the area, determining its location using satellites.

However, neither Kennedy nor Khrushchev is not forgiven. In the USA, they considered their president a weakling who had bent under the Russians, a year later he was killed under very strange circumstances. Fidel Castro was angry that the Russians and the staff members decided everything without him, and he called the compromise, which was the solution to the crisis, a betrayal of the Revolution.

    Of course, I "beg your pardon" that your highly learned dispute with Andrei from Chelyabinsk is interfering, but unfortunately Andrei is right for you in many ways.
    Let's figure out what you wrote

    Quote: Tomahawk
    ravine, the radius of the RCC Caliber is 500 km, this is the ground you will shoot so far ..

    Yes, the 3M54-type anti-ship missile range is indeed less than 500 km, but you compare warm to soft. Take the aviation version for your part and compare it with the ship version with ours. There is no logic in this

    Quote: Tomahawk
    And please read the TTX AGM-158C LRASM, for you I’ll tell you: launch range: 900 km, warhead: 454 kg. And compare with Granite. Go with the caliber.

    Well. let's compare. In the export version, the "Caliber" really has a limitation on the range and weight of the warhead. But not in the version that is intended for their own needs. What range will the aviation Caliber be you know?
    Further. You are again comparing warm to soft. Aircraft missiles from a ship. But still, if you compare the "Granite" with the AGM-158C, then the comparison will not be in favor of the AGM-158C. The only thing in which it will surpass the old "Granite" - exclusively in the firing range. In terms of speed, it will lose to “granite” by 2-2,5 times. The weight of the warhead is almost 2 times.
    When attacking ships, the range is secondary. In any case, target designation from the carrier to such a range is extremely difficult to obtain. But speed and all warheads are far from the last thing. And in this, the AGM-158C loses to “granite” and is equal (in speed and warhead) to “Caliber”. And even then in the subsonic version ..
    But if we consider all the same exclusively aviation variants of anti-ship missiles, then we have an option that England does not have. This is simply an anti-ship version of missiles of type X, the "100th series." experience is already there. At one time, they redesigned the airborne-based missile launcher of the Kyrgyz Republic X-55, we get about four times less range than the X-55, but with twice as much warhead. What prevents you from doing this now? Absolutely nothing...

    Quote: Tomahawk
    And comrade, I’ll open my eyes to you. If the Russian Federation declares war on Britain, war with NATO is guaranteed.

    If you carefully read Article 5 of the NATO Charter, it doesn’t talk about the "automatic" entry into the NATO war in a conflict with one of the NATO member countries

    Quote: Tomahawk
    Yes, and what to argue about. Corvettes with Caliber will not do much useful, there are too few corvettes in the northern fleet of the Russian Federation, and they have few missiles, for strategic purposes, maximum coast protection. The only surface threat to the Navy is Peter the Great, but this goal probably it will be one of the first for the British Trident 2. That is, as I already said, submarines will be the headache of the Navy.

    They will do a lot of useful things within those tasks. which are set in front of ships of this class. No one will send them to attack the KVMF, which at that time will be located, for example, in its bases. But in the zone of their responsibility - they are quite a serious adversary, which will have to be reckoned with ...
    Well, what about the defeat of “Peter” and his defeat by “Trident-2” - honestly neighing. You cheered me up before the start of the working day. There is such a Russian expression - FROM GUNS ON SPARROWS. Your phrase about the defeat of "Peter" by intercontinental ballistic missiles from this series. I won’t even say that they’ve never been tested as an anti-ship missile ... It’s the same as saying that the Voivode or Sarmat would strike at the British aircraft carrier

    Quote: Andrey from Chelyabinsk
    Formally, Wangard carrying the midday version of the Trident is great and mighty, having 16 mines can drag 16 * 14 = 224 100-kiloton warheads. And our Dolphin 667BDRM surpasses the same 16 missiles, but having not 14 but only 10 hundred-ton warheads, i.e. only 160 charges instead of 224 for the Englishwoman.

    Quote: Tomahawk
    In your 225 YaB can only cause "serious damage"? Do you understand what you are saying? Even the loss of Moscow will be a terrible blow to the Russian Federation, and here 225 YaB.

    Let's separate the flies from the cutlets.
    To begin with, Andrew was a little mistaken. Like you in this phrase. I will not even say that for 2016-2017 the arsenal of British nuclear weapons standing on the database decreased to 120-125 EMNIP. Leave this figure alone. She in our conversation is actually not significant. Andrey’s mistake is that he incorrectly calculated the number of YBGs on Trident. Yes, theoretically, the Trident can carry 14 goals, but even the United States has never had this. There were no missiles with so many BZs on the DB. Another thing in the previous contract was its own rules for offsetting the knowledge base on the medium.
    This is not about that. In Britain, even if you do not take into account the last reduction was TOTAL 225 charges for the Tridents. TOTAL .
    In reality, the scheme for using British missile-carrying boats is as follows. On combat duty at sea is ONE a boat. Still TWO boats are ready to go to sea after 10 hours - 3 days depending on the degree of readiness. Another boat is undergoing scheduled repairs and its readiness to exit is from 1 to 3 months. Okay, let's take the lower limit of 30 days.
    But that is not all. Of the 16 mines on the boat, one is exclusively for test launches and on duty EMPTY. Yet ONE MINING contains a rocket with ONE warhead. This is the case when a British lion needs to demonstrate its determination to launch a nuclear strike on any "PAPUASII". In such cases, the British are going to get by with one blow. The remaining mines on the boat carry missiles with FOUR CHARGES.
    Moreover, the British Admiralty is now considering options when the boat will not be fully loaded with missiles, for example, their number will be in the range of 4-8, but each missile will no longer have 4 BGs, but more.

    Therefore, no damage would be expected from Britain in 225 nuclear strikes against Russia. A maximum of 57 charges that Britain is ready to use immediately.

          At the same time, the modernized Antey (72 caliber on board) Shchuki B, the seven newest Severodvinsk, a bunch of updated 636.3 Varshavyanks and, it seems, some amount of submarines with VNEU or lithium-ion batteries will counter it. ..

Comrade, count the number of cities of "millionaires" in Russia, even the cash (which Britain is ready to launch) is enough to destroy a large part of the urban population, and if Trident-2 gets into warehouses with nuclear warheads, believe me, when thousands of unused nuclear warheads of Russia detonate the further launch of Trident-2 in this area will be unnecessary. And Trident-2 will launch more than one YaB on Peter the Great, they will launch Trident-2 in a staggered manner, and Peter the Great will be almost impossible to dodge.

                  For you a physics course.
                  The atomic nuclei of some isotopes of chemical elements with a large atomic mass (for example, uranium or plutonium), when irradiated with neutrons of a certain energy, lose their stability and decay with the release of energy into two smaller and approximately equal mass fragments - the fission reaction of the atomic nucleus occurs. At the same time, along with fragments with high kinetic energy, several more neutrons are released that can cause a similar process in neighboring atoms of the same kind. In turn, the neutrons formed during their fission can lead to the fission of new batches of atoms - the reaction becomes a chain, acquires a cascade character.
                  That is, when a blast wave shell breaks through, the chain reaction will have new uranium or plutonium nuclei, that is, material for continuing the chain reaction. What did you have in physics school?))))

Yes, there was a place to be, but there is nothing extraordinary here - this was the first experience of the combat use of carrier-based aviation not only in the Russian Federation, but also in the USSR. And such an experience always comes at a high price - so we paid. Well, having corrected the necessary (by the way, the problems there were more likely not in breakdowns, but in operation errors), we will not allow more than such errors.

                    You see, what’s the matter - they were going to base E-2 Hokai on Queen Elizabeth. But the problem is that these planes WITHOUT A CATAPULT FROM THE DECK AB CAN NOT TAKE OFF, therefore, as soon as the sirs and peers refused the catapult, they said goodbye to the E-2C, as well as the E-2D :)))

                    You .... You .... No, I can’t wassat crying laughing
                    In short, what you described is called a CHAIN ​​REACTION. A chain reaction, so you know, is NEVER ATOMIC EXPLOSION.
                    People have learned to “trigger” a chain reaction long before the creation of the atomic bomb. But the problem was that the chain reaction was accompanied by such a sharp release of energy that uranium / plutonium simply does not have time to detonate in full - only a tiny fraction of it detonates, and the remaining mass of the substance is empty, which makes the power of the nuclear bomb not much higher than the usual explosive.
                    To avoid this, the so-called implosive scheme. This detonation scheme involves obtaining a supercritical state by compressing fissile material with a focused shock wave created by an explosion of chemical explosives. So-called explosive lenses are used to focus the shock wave, and detonation is carried out simultaneously at many points with precision accuracy. The creation of such a system for the location of explosives and detonation was at one time one of the most difficult tasks.
                    So, with a nuclear explosion, there will be no "precision accuracy", no compression will take place, a chain reaction will occur in a scanty amount of uranium / pluton, and the rest will simply evaporate.

                      Yes, I admit my mistake, about E-2, I looked at the old data. But the British do not follow the precepts of Zadorny)), they made it possible to remove this add-in at any time and put in a catapult, and make E-2 able to be based on they will have a helicopter AWACS EH101 Merlin, it would seem worse, the speed of the E-2 576 km / h, the EH101 Merlin 278 km / h, but the problem with the EH101 Merlin is the flight range of the EH101 Merlin is 564 km, but E-2 320 km. So everything is not so bad.

    Few of the current generation know how close our world stood at the edge of the nuclear abyss on Black Saturday, October 27, 1962, at the peak of the Cuban missile crisis.

    The world beat very far from the nuclear abyss in October 1962. Only the American bluff intimidated the Soviet leadership, headed by N.S. Khr. how then Reagan’s bluff intimidated M.S. Gor. Stalin. They couldn’t and couldn’t intimidate Mao Zedong and Kim Jong-un.
    If the US really wants to use nuclear weapons, they will do it suddenly, without warning, as in Hiroshima. And if there is the slightest threat, a retaliatory nuclear strike will take place in the United States, they will behave like doves of the world. Because no one knows how many nuclear strikes are needed, it’s only 2-3, or 5-6, so that mass riots and self-evacuation of the populations begin and their state decays irrevocably.

    Comrade, the radius of action of the RCC Caliber in the export version is somewhere around 300 km, but 500 km for its fleet as a maximum.

    The nonsense of the word is complete. The caliber was made as the development of the Granat cruise missile, the flight range of which was 2500 km back in the 80s. 300 km of export range are dictated exclusively by export restrictions; according to international treaties, export Kyrgyz Republics cannot fly further than 300 km. This is not connected with the range of the original rocket.

    Dear Tomahawk !!! You just amuse me with your sayings. And in the morning, before work, and in the evening, after a hard day. And now they’re having fun, raising the mood with the phrase about the satellite constellation
    UK.

    UK satellite constellation is 3 Earth Remote Sensing Satellites in polar orbit with an “interval” of 45 degrees. Not the orbits from each other differ by 45 degrees, but they move in the same orbit and the angle between them is 45 degrees (i.e. they go at intervals of 12 minutes). Yes, they cover a strip of 650 km. But what will they do if Petra is not in this zone at that time ??? They overlook the same area FOUR TIMES PER DAY. Background information about satellites is brought to the command of units and formations and is regularly updated. So, knowing the satellite environment, the commander of the Peter is unlikely to climb to where he can be photographed from a satellite. Until even if this happens, it will be possible to confirm its presence in that region only in 12-24 minutes.

    There is also a military optical reconnaissance satellite. In quantity ONE. His resolution is 8 times better, but the only “shot” he captures is a 17 x 17 km square. He will be able to confirm the location in only one turn, and even then, if the ship falls into a 17x17 square. And in an hour and a half at a speed of 60 km / h, Peter will leave 90 km ....

    But suppose the incredible. The satellite spotted the ship, was found among the command and. Idiot, who gave the order to shoot the "Trident"
    Even if he detects it, then it will take him time to transfer data (if there is a repeater). Plus, bringing the order to the boat is about 10 minutes according to the same English. Plus rocket flight. How far will the Trident fly? 1000 km in 2 minutes. So consider it.
    Minutes 5 transfer of coordinates to the control center, 10 minutes bringing the order to the boat. A couple of minutes, entering coordinates into the onboard control system. It's already 17 minutes. The rocket starts. The engine runs for 172 seconds, during which time the rocket will fly to a distance of about 400 km. At what distance will Peter be? Even if 1000 km. So the remaining 600 km is another 1,2 minutes.

    Total: 5 + 10 + 2 + 3 + 1,2 = 21 minutes. TWENTY ONE.. In 21 minutes or 0,35 hours at a speed of 32 knots (60 km / h), Peter will leave for 21 km. And what will a 100-kt warhead do to a ship, exploding at a distance of 21 km from the ship. Yes, let there be at least 400 kt warhead.

    I no longer ask the question, but what to do with the rest of the warheads? Is there really such a p.i.durok who will give the order to shoot a multi-headed missile at the ship ???

    Based on the foregoing, the entire "heavy duty" satellite constellation of Britain is not worth a damn. Thanks again for the high spirits ... laughing

    I perfectly understood the purpose of this article: under Gorbachev, the world breathed a sigh of relief, and the American hawks turned into
    pigeons. Question. The creation of missile defense systems requires the involvement of scientists, and you can’t create this system in a year.
    an agreement to reduce medium- and short-range missiles, did the United States immediately begin to create missile defense? Removing the ambassador to
    Washington Dobrynin, Gorbachev deliberately destroyed the work of those services that ensure the security of the USSR. Even those
    those who worked did not understand the politeness of the secretary general to the states. The secret of some objects broke the trust of those
    countries that built these facilities. I still have a lot of questions for the author, but I have to ask one. Having signed an agreement on strategic reduction, why didn’t Gorbachev go on to create new non-nuclear weapons? The country swelled huge funds for the creation of reusable missiles, although there were other projects. In short, the reign of Gorbachev-
    it was a one-man theater. And what we now have in the World is the result of its activities.

    The great superiority of the United States in the number of nuclear weapons is only one component of the balance of power. Another and no less important is the US survivability from nuclear strikes, and it is an order of magnitude lower than the survivability of the USSR. The USSR already had the experience of air strikes of similar nuclear strikes - an example of the bombing of Stalingrad (I think it was beaten on August 23, 1942). He proved his ability to endure such strikes. What New Orleans turned into as a result of a predictable natural disaster, the whole world was watching. In addition, most U.S. carriers are bombers. How did their crews react to the dangers of suffering a 40 or 50% loss - almost a suicide attack? By dropping bombs anywhere or landing in non-neutral countries?

    Stop, sorry to write nonsense. In this case, it was precisely the superiority in the quantity of nuclear weapons that would nullify all the "survivability" of the USSR. The nuclear bombing of a city and the bombing of one city are not the same thing. Read the plans for nuclear attacks on the USSR. It was planned to strike 70 cities of the USSR. And this is not just a city on the map. These are the cities where production was concentrated. Military production.
    To say that the survivability from nuclear strikes in the USSR was an order of magnitude higher than that of the United States — sorry, this is unsubstantiated nonsense. Do not forget that the first strike would involve ICBMs and SLBMs. And this is 364 units against 110 in the USSR. From 110, you still need to subtract 72 SLBMs, which at that time had a range of 1300 km and our submarines would have to operate near the territory of the United States, with all the ensuing consequences in the form of PLO.

    And do not compare the disasters of New Orleans with nuclear bombing. What would Leningrad become as a result of the same cataclysm as in New Orleans. Ask yourself this question before comparing a man-made disaster in the form of a nuclear strike and a natural

    In 2008, 50 missiles remained, that is, almost BK for only three boats. Since 2011, the number of BG on missiles has been reduced from 48 to 40 on a boat.
    And in the past or the year before last (I don’t remember exactly) I read on the placement options. And they were even painted in which mines and what should be. Moreover, the limit of 40 BG per boat is not the final option. It was planned to redistribute the existing missiles between the boats and leave 12 missiles (maximum option) or 8 missiles (minimum option. But with a large number of BGs on each) on the EMNIP boat

    The nuclear bombing of a city and the bombing of one city are not the same thing.

    The comparison was done by British and American experts (for example, Ralph Lep). Dropping 2000 tons of bombs of 1 tone each per city = one nuclear bomb of 20 kilotons. On the battlefield, 1 tactical nuclear weapon of 10 kiloton = 4 thousand 155 HE shells (200 tons).
    Nothing in this world is one thing about either, but this does not mean that no comparison can be made. The bombing of Tokyo in March 1945 led to more casualties than Hiroshima. With a child, if the Hiroshimi population took seriously the victim’s alarm, the bit could be at least 10 times smaller. They were not afraid of a lone bomber and did not pay attention to him.
    To say that the survivability from nuclear strikes in the USSR was an order of magnitude higher than that of the United States — sorry, this is unsubstantiated nonsense.

    The USSR has more territory, the population is larger and more often lives in small towns and villages, the industry is less concentrated, civil defense is head and shoulders higher than the city. The USA, the economy is much less dependent on imports, etc. The USSR has already evacuated the population and material assets at an unprecedented scale for the whole world, while the USA only carried out the “evacuation” of New Orleans a few decades later. The socio-economic system of the USSR is much better adapted to cross-border situations than the US system. The USSR was well aware of the damaging effects of nuclear weapons and organically prepared the defense of the population and the economy.
    Of course, everything can be a bit of nonsense for you.
    And do not compare the disasters of New Orleans with nuclear bombing. What would Leningrad become as a result of the same cataclysm as in New Orleans.

    Of course you can’t compare. The population of New Orleans was evacuated in five days, it hit a hundred times easier than it would protect it from a nuclear strike. For the five days that was in New Orleans, not only the population and valuable property were evacuated from Leningrad, but the city’s defenses could strengthen and prevent the consequences of the disaster.
    Do not forget that the first strike would involve ICBMs and SLBMs. And this is 364 units against 110 in the USSR. From 110, you still need to subtract 72 SLBMs, which at that time had a range of 1300 km and our submarines would have to operate near the territory of the United States, with all the ensuing consequences in the form of PLO.

    Will the US also get SLBMs? They, too, had to be beaten, operating from a relatively short range, and each boat carried 16 missiles, which could not be launched in one gulp. Beat and 60 Soviet missiles R-14 and R-12 in Cuba. As Nikita Sergeyevich said, the United States can destroy us 10 times, and my not so bad ones we destroy them only once. Therefore, all children comparison is real nonsense. Even a few nuclear strikes at their United States Meyland are risky and then and now do not prepare. Therefore, no nuclear conflict could be beaten. The United States could eat occupied Cuba with conventional weapons with little chance of success.
    You do not consider the Americans as they are Zadornov. Do you really think that the strike of the bombers would not be accompanied by escort of fighters. This is the first. And the second, after a preliminary strike of 3,5 hundred charges on cities and military bases, it would hardly have been available a large number of air defense systems, moreover, managed from the Center.

    Escort fighters? Maybe a bit on the outskirts of the USSR could it be a bit, but in the Urals and Siberia which fighters will escort the B-52? Can often B-52 turn into fighter jets? This is the first.
    And the second of 364 ICBMs and SLBMs will have 350 successful strikes? In which fairy tale does this happen? How many air defense systems could they destroy, even if all beat the directions to destroy only the air defense? With that, would the American bombers themselves suffer any losses from Soviet nuclear strikes at their airfields? You know that after a 30% loss over Schweinfurt at the end of 1943, American pilots refused to fly over Germany. Over the USSR, they predicted 40-50% of losses and this was not done by Soviet propaganda. What will be the fate of a pilot carrying a nuclear weapon if he fell into the hands of the enemy? You do not count American pilots as fools and kamikazes.

    The population for 1991 was more, I do not argue. 40 million. Area - yes, more - about double. about the civil defense of the USSR and the USA - let's not compare. Using the example of their FEMA, the Russian Ministry of Emergencies was created. In the USSR there were GO troops. In large cities, regiments of civil defense were stationed. In small cities, they were not even close.
    The USSR did indeed evacuate material assets during the war, but in the era of nuclear missile confrontation this was completely meaningless.
    The evacuation during natural disasters equal to the New Orleans of the USSR never conducted. We simply did not have natural disasters of such a massive scale. But unfortunately, all the teachings on civil defense are in the days of the USSR, and in the days of Russia they were purely for show. There were no situations in the USSR to say that a natural disaster of such a level in the USSR did not bring any emergency consequences, but in the USA ....
    In the USSR they knew well about PFJAV, but in the USA they didn’t? Did not know. Look at the chronicle of how American schools acted on a GO signal. And try to find the same chronicle in the USSR. Schoolchildren in the USSR did not have such exercises. There was only the “Theoretical" part.

    Nikita Sergeevich said a lot. And not everything was true. Believe what he said you can with great care. Given the timing of availability and the presence of all missiles on the launch boards, we can say that in the most favorable scenario, we could try to launch no more than 24 R-12 missiles. But here's some embarrassment. At the time of "Black Saturday" in combat readiness (100%) there were only 4 launchers. The rest could be ready within 1-2 days. And the number of aircraft concentrated in that paradise, the number of missiles does not give an unequivocally affirmative answer that all 24, even with full readiness, could not only start, but also reach.

    Are you sure that the United States was not ready to take risks if someone did not hold back? Do you think that a strike on the United States with R-12 missiles would force the United States to capitulate? The prize was huge. The destruction of the Soviet Union, and for this they would have taken the risk of a nuclear strike on their territory.

    There could be a conflict, but thanks to its resolution, the war did not start. The Americans removed their missiles from Europe, pledged not to try to capture Cuba. In response, we pulled out our missiles, which Fidel was extremely dissatisfied with. The conflict did not begin not because the Americans could not or were afraid, namely because of the sobriety of those who decided not to bring the matter to a thermonuclear conflict

    Quote: Kostadinov
    Escort fighters? Maybe a bit on the outskirts of the USSR could it be a bit, but in the Urals and Siberia which fighters will escort the B-52? Can often B-52 turn into fighter jets? This is the first.
    And the second of 364 ICBMs and SLBMs will have 350 successful strikes? In which fairy tale does this happen? How many air defense systems could they destroy, even if all beat the directions to destroy only the air defense? With that, would the American bombers themselves suffer any losses from Soviet nuclear strikes at their airfields? You know that after a 30% loss over Schweinfurt at the end of 1943, American pilots refused to fly over Germany. Over the USSR, they predicted 40-50% of losses and this was not done by Soviet propaganda. What will be the fate of a pilot carrying a nuclear weapon if he fell into the hands of the enemy? You do not count American pilots as fools and kamikazes.

    And why should the B-52 strike at the beginning of the conflict in the Urals? There are rockets for this. And why should there not be 364 successful strikes out of 350 missiles? What, in the USSR there was a missile defense system that could bring down these missiles? This would not happen in a fairy tale, as you think. but in reality. How many air defense systems could they destroy? Yes, in principle, air defense around these facilities. This would be enough for air defense as a single system to cease to exist. And there would be separate foci.
    American bombers are unlikely to suffer significant losses from Soviet nuclear strikes. For the most commonplace reason. If they started, then these bombers will already be in the air.

    You again refer to the experience of the Second World War. And the claim that the Americans refused to fly over Germany. let us leave these statements to the conscience of those who wrote this. True or not, no one knows. Question in drgom. A preemptive strike on the territory of the USSR would have destroyed most of the air bases and air defense systems. Those who remained would have been forced to work "autonomously", sometimes without target designation. In addition, NATO would also not stand still, but would strike at the border zone and at tactical depth.

    What would be the fate of a pilot carrying nuclear weapons on board? Yes, it’s absolutely the same, for them, for us. It is unlikely that he would have survived in captivity. But one should not conclude from this that the Americans would refuse to carry out the order. In Vietnam, many of them were shot down and died and captured, but none of the participants refused to complete the task.

      During the Caribbean crisis, the United States refused to start TMV for a trivial reason - as a result, they lost Western Europe and the Middle East (where the Soviet Army would have entered), exchanging them for destruction in the European part of the USSR and the Urals.

      From an American point of view, such an exchange was not equivalent.

    Marder7 imagine a ship moving, you need to constantly adjust your flight, that is, look for it,

    But what about RCC? Immediately from the start of tracking the movement of enemy ships? Write nonsense. RCCs fly in the same way. At the first stage they fly using ANN. Then, in the range of the onboard radar, they go into homing mode. How this happens is different for each RCC. The same Onyx. when firing at maximum range it goes at a marching altitude of 14 km. In the range of the radar, the target is captured and the missile is reduced to a height of 10-15 meters above sea level. When you exit from under the horizon, there is a course adjustment. Given the speed data of such a missile, a ship with a maximum speed of 30 knots can go about 2 km. Correcting the course for the last 15-16 km by a couple of degrees is a matter of seconds.

    If it’s RCC type Caliber. then it goes to the ANN at a low altitude (about 10-20 meters), then it makes a slide, the target is captured and reduced to a height of 3-5 meters. Further - depending on the modification of the rocket

    Quote: Tomahawk
    this is a very big weight

    Do not write nonsense. If Turquoise differs from Caliber in its mass, it is only due to the fact that it has
    1.More fuel and therefore longer range
    2. Heavier warhead

    This is good, by the way, looks on export versions reduced to the same range. Turquoise differs from subsonic Caliber by 2-3 tens of kilograms. But the supersonic version of the "Caliber" is really heavier by about half a ton.
    Electronic filling has a comparable mass. If there is a difference, then in kilograms, and not in tens or hundreds of kilograms.
    And in general, what is "big weight". Soviet (Russian) "Granite" in general 7-ton

    Quote: Tomahawk
    you don’t put too large missiles on ships, there are weight frames, maximum for coastal defense

    It all depends on the ship. Both subsonic and supersonic rockets of the Caliber and Onyx type can be placed on an 800-ton vessel. ENA on heavier ships - you can already put heavier missiles. As such, a weighting frame for missiles does not exist. It all depends on the size of the ship, that's all.

    In Soviet times, there was such a magazine "Young Technician". In it, almost at the end of the magazine, there was a page with the name JUMORON (Humorous answers to the guys - there is nothing to be offended). Here once a question was asked: "Is it possible to build a pocket nuclear reactor"
    Answer: "It all depends on the size of the pocket." So it is with rockets. It all depends on the size of the ship. Of course, Granite cannot be put on the MKP, but Caliber / Onyx is elementary. On the ARCr - there are also "Granites"

    For you a physics course.
    The atomic nuclei of some isotopes of chemical elements with a large atomic mass (for example, uranium or plutonium), when irradiated with neutrons of a certain energy, lose their stability and decay with the release of energy into two smaller and approximately equal mass fragments - the fission reaction of the atomic nucleus occurs. At the same time, along with fragments with high kinetic energy, several more neutrons are released that can cause a similar process in neighboring atoms of the same kind. In turn, the neutrons formed during their fission can lead to the fission of new batches of atoms - the reaction becomes a chain, acquires a cascade character.
    That is, when a blast wave shell breaks through, the chain reaction will have new uranium or plutonium nuclei, that is, material for continuing the chain reaction. What did you have in physics school?))))

    Do you know such an expression as “critical mass”? According to your calculation, all uranium, and the 235th, and 238 and other isotopes will work in general. Like plutonium.
    In our arsenals (storage bases), both for us, for Americans, and for others, too, the retired BGs can be in long-term storage mode, roughly speaking, disassembled, without NO. And there are those that are subject to subsequent disposal. So there is no physical package in principle. This is already a disassembled "for parts" device

    There are 500000 cities with a population of 37 or more in the Russian Federation, and Trident-2 which Britain can apply immediately, according to Stary 26-57, is enough. And what about the rest of the Russian Federation? Anarchy, hunger, even list laziness.

    By the way, do not ascribe to me what I did not say. About 57 missiles, ready for use, there is no talk at all. 58 rockets were purchased. At the beginning of this decade, there were generally 50. Now it is most likely 49. But that's all. An English missile carrier located on the database contains a maximum of 15 missiles. And one of them with one warhead. The total number of warheads on the boat is reduced to 40. That is, only 15 (maximum) missiles can shoot, no more. And this means that there is no question of any 37 cities destroyed. Moreover, there is a huge number of cities in which the population is smaller, but they are more "valuable" in terms of goals than cities with a population of 500 thousand. For example, Ryazan with its 538 thousand population or Nizhny Tagil with its 356 thousand. Or Tula with its 485 thousand, Kaliningrad (467), Sevastopol (429), Magnitogorsk (418). Who is more "valuable" as an object to strike.?

    Further, regarding the destruction of the city. I have a city with an official population of 434 thousand (unofficial - according to the materials of the FMS and PF - more than half a million). The city is on hilly rugged terrain. The difference in height is up to 200-250 meters. The city has an approximate size of 18x20 km. A single strike of 100 kt with a warhead will certainly cause casualties, But they will not be fatal, because the city center is its management. Police, FSB, administration. I live about 2-2,5 km from this center. My house does not even fall into a zone of severe destruction. Of the 5 fire departments of the city - only one will be destroyed. No hospital will be hurt. The Ministry of Emergency Situations and military units capable of putting things in order are also

    Why is it the rest of the Russian Federation will be anarchy, famine, etc., do not tell me? This year, the region today issued EMNIP 9,3 million tons of grain (harvesting is not completed), there have never been and are no elevators in the city. Why be hunger? Yes, at first there may be problems with the provision of medical care, assistance with food. But this depends on those who will implement these measures in emergency mode. City DO NOT DIE in the sense that you mean it, saying that the city will be destroyed. In order to destroy even a city like mine, it is necessary to strike at least 3-5 warheads on it so that you can talk about the destruction. So do not invent something that a priori cannot happen. But Andrey from Chelyabinsk is right. Britain can easily be "planted with square-nesting", bombing it into the Stone Age

    You know, Andrey, this is all good when on paper, in theoretical calculations. Yes, of course, some kind of evacuation measures can be carried out, but to say that the entire urban population will be dispersed in the countryside is rather presumptuous. I will not even take Moscow or Leningrad as an example. I will focus on my own city. Even without taking into account the presence of defense enterprises requiring continuous operation, imagine how the same official 434 thousand people can be taken out of the city. And not just to withdraw, they need to be placed somewhere, to organize food, medical care (I don’t even remember about schools). And this is not just living quarters for half a million people, even on a regional scale. These are water supply problems, sewage problems and everything else. Moreover, the geographic location of the region is such that some areas will be poorly adapted to move a huge number of people there. It is hardly possible to leave people outdoors when the temperature rises to plus 50 degrees .... Well, etc. Evacuation measures of course can and will take place, but by no means universal, or as you say the entire population of cities. If we take into account that of the 2,8 million inhabitants, the urban population is 58,7% or more than 1,6 million, and the rural population is only 1,2 million, then it is impossible to evacuate more people than live there in rural areas. And this I say in principle about small cities of the region. And what about the evacuation of the same 12 millionth Moscow ??? No, believe me - this is unrealistic. For almost 12 years (from 2002 to 2014) I was the head of the emergency department of the Emergencies Ministry fire department. Periodically, every 3 years, we were given studies. The theory was honestly of little interest, but more applied questions and answers were much more interesting. Therefore, I imagine this problem a little from the inside.

    Come on, dear, do not invent what is not. Term BATTLE STATEMENT implies that a ship (boat) can use its weapons for, for example 10 minutes, after bringing the order to him. In the british navy on BATTLE DUTY is ONE Submarine. ONE. Boats with numbers 2 and 3 are ready to go, but not ready to use. According to the same open documents, their readiness fluctuates. from 10 (TEN) hours to 3 (THREE) days. During this time, the crew should arrive at the duty station, the boat proceed to the arsenal, load SLBMs, take on board supplies (fuel, food, water) and only then follow the patrol zone.
    Your idea is not clear at all, that the 2nd and 3rd Vengard are on the database and they will take more Tridents before the exit
    They are not on combat duty. They are CAN within the specified time, proceed to the database. But the entry into the sea of ​​two more boats is a unmasking sign that the British fleet is preparing to attack the same Russia. Not even a solution, but an investigation into arsenals is already a sign. How many "Tridents" will be hit - 15 or 45 - the question is open. But in any case, Britain will be the loser, because with the second option (3 boats-45 missiles) - this option simply may not remain. No one canceled the preemptive strike, which means that for 2 boats there may be no fate at all to leave the base.

    Next, I repeat again. Trident 2 IN THEORY can carry 14 warheads. But the rocket has never been used with such a BO, even in tests, even in the database. This is the first. In Britain, there were 225 warheads in stock (even without the conditions for the reduction of recent years). Divide this into 48 missiles and find out how many BBs the British Trident 2 can carry in real life.
    One can and should talk about the damaging factors of a nuclear explosion with numbers in their hands in order to know in which radius the shock wave will be dangerous and in which the penetrating radiation. These factors will take place, but the radiation will not be so effective as to hit everyone and everything around, outside a certain radius

    The launch of one Trident in Moscow will not lead to anything. Around Moscow, there are positioned areas of the missile defense system, which is capable of intercepting the EMNIP of 18 paired targets, that is 36. Given 4 BBs on tridents, it will be necessary to issue at least 10 tridents in Moscow, that is, 20% of the total UK ammunition, so that at least one of them broke through.
    The mass evacuation of Moscow residents - yes, there will certainly be, looting - yes, certainly, irradiated - too, although 4 x 100 ct of charge in a megalopolis is a minuscule. What will not happen is mass protests, both of the population and the army. You just do not know the Russian mentality. people tolerate all these protests of the liberals, because they are more like a show. With the same blow, anyone who comes out to protest will simply be torn apart, because in such cases only 2 categories can protest: either the sick, or the traitors

Further, and who prevents to put the same Onyx on aircraft carriers? Or religion does not allow? so I can upset. Those Indians put "brahmos" on the SU-30 ....
    The range of the AUG defeat is determined not only by the RCC flight range. BUT and a number of other factors. For example, how many ATGM DRLO aircraft are at, how far war ships are located, the radius of patrol of decked aircraft, the outfit of forces used to destroy the AUG. Therefore, to argue that the launch range of the RCC is much less than the range of the AUG defeat is generally incorrect and illiterate

    Well, of course, when arguments are uploaded, secrecy comes into play. Your remark reminds me of the statements of the American leadership about the violation by Russia of the INF Treaty.
    USA - "We know that you are breaking the contract"
    Russia - "Give an example of breach of contract by us"
    USA “This information is secret, but we know that you know what we know about your violation of the INF Treaty.”

    So it is here. Information is classified. The fact that the British government officially went to the reduction of the deployed (deployed) charges is by no means a secret. The fact that the British Admiralty plans, if necessary, to strike at a country (not Russia), to demonstrate its determination, is no secret. That for this purpose a "trident" with one warhead will be used in the mine number 2 of the boat (you see, it is even known in which mine such a "Trident" will be) is also not a secret. That only Mine No. 1 is used for testing (even the number is also known) and that this mine does not carry missiles on the database, a missile is loaded into it without warheads, but only with simulators and even before the test is also no secret. And you all say - secretly, secretly.

    And answer the question of how the number of Tridents on British boats can be increased when the BC of these missiles is enough for only three of the four boats. The fourth, what do we cross out? Yes, then there really will be 16 missiles in British boats, but again not with 14 warheads on each. In all other cases, there is not enough ammunition (full) for 4 boats.

      The Su-30 carries only one Onyx, and the Indian Onyx’s range is just 300 km, and it will take off from ground airfields, it’s maximum useful for defense, although the Indians are not authorities in this matter, they all have very very old, they are still very far from the same British, in terms of technology, there are no analogues of the Tomahawk Kyrgyz Republic, in general, they still have to work and work.

To compare the situation that has arisen as a result of a long-term bloody war, which is completely unnecessary for the people, with a situation where, for example, a nuclear strike is delivered on Russia ... You absolutely do not know the mentality of the Russians, believing that there will be mass protests and the Civil War. There will be a situation in 1941. The ENEMY attacked the country. And even those who in peacetime were at different political poles will rally. Ball in one of the science fiction novels such a phrase. When a REAL enemy appears - even recent enemies begin to act shoulder to shoulder. You sometimes cite historical events as an example, in particular 1917.

      Comrade, if 3 Wangard’s go out into the ocean, this does not mean that they will all shoot, the British can simply remind them of their capabilities, “scare” them, in case of important negotiations, they will do so in order to have reliable support for negotiations.
      Comrade 1941 is not an example. Then there was someone to unite around, there was a single ideology, government, army. In the case of the fall of the Russian government, there will be no single leadership, ideology ... 1917 is a more indicative example. There was a temporary government against the Bolsheviks, then there was a war " red and white, "there was no decisive intervention, the Russians fought with the Russians, and each side had its own ideology, principles, cruelties ....
      Comrade of the su-30, the range is small, as I already said, without aircraft carriers this is a purely defensive weapon, yes it’s a dangerous opponent for the AAG, but it and less than aircraft on an aircraft carrier, it will be very difficult to break the AUG defense. Comrade don’t completely trust the words of the Ministry of Defense, they could have lied, no one had yet created ship-based anti-ship missiles with a range of more than 500 km, and LRASM can be over 900 km, but there are different speeds, another strategy, NATO focuses on stealth, and the Russian Federation on speed.

    No, of course the nuclear-powered missile-carrier boat is precisely the very weapon system that can be "scared". NOT an aircraft carrier or AUG, not a few destroyers as a last resort, but certainly missile carriers. The only question is, to whom? Do not tell me what the country should be, just, for the sake of interest, in order to scare it, you need THREE STRATEGIC ROCKET BOATS? Can you answer? Which country should be scared by three boats and two hundred nuclear weapons (with all its nuclear arsenal)? Himself not funny?

    Moreover, in intelligence there is such a term. - DEMASING SIGN. So here. Going out to sea at once three boats with the full nuclear potential of the country is already “Do not scare” someone. This is the initial stage of a nuclear conflict. Now the question is, who will these missiles threaten?
    • America? You understand that this is not funny
    • France maybe? Do you think a NATO ally country can be considered a country that needs to be "scared" by its full nuclear potential?
    • Maybe China? Far from the patrol area. Trident to China "not get it"

    Who else can be scared? Are there any options? I'm afraid not. so if a missile carrier boat went to sea with a full supply of missiles and warheads - there can only be one target. RUSSIA
    So are the rest. Access to the database more than usual number of boats (and especially all) is a sign of war. And no matter whose boats it is: American, Russian, British or French. So your argument about scaring does not stand up to criticism

    Comrade 1941 is not an example. Then there was around whom to unite, there was a single ideology, government, army. .

    The White Guards and the Soviets had a single ideology? But the former White Guards, emigrants also fought against Hitler. And not in the ranks of the Red Army
    Don't like 1941? Take 1812 as an example. And there was no single ideology. But they fought not only and not so much "for faith, the tsar and the fatherland" as against the enemy who went to war against Russia

    In the event of the fall of the Russian government, there will be no single leadership, ideology ... 1917 is a more revealing example. There was a provisional government against the Bolsheviks, then there was a war of “red and white”, there was no decisive intervention, the Russians fought with the Russians, and each side was its own ideology, principles, cruelty ...

    And why will the fall of the Russian government. What will cause it to fall? Popular uprising? Nonsense. The structure, by the way, of the country is such that the country is divided into several Federal Districts. Let's just say this is a regional managerial structure that has in its region sufficient power in the sense of management. Well, the fact that there was a war of white and red, Yes, the Russians fought with the Russians, what's wrong with that. By the way, they fought not only with the Russians, but also with the interventionists. It is not clear what the decisive intervention should have been from your point of view? It is not enough that the North of Russia was occupied by the British and Americans, the Far East by the Japanese, the South by the French (besides all these Russian rulers in the form of Kolchak, Denikin and others), and you should not think that the population was united by ideology. As current, it was not accepted by the entire population of the country, who fought with the invaders.
    There is exactly the same period in American history when southerners fought with northerners

    Comrade in the su-30 range is small, as I said.

    Of course a little. The combat radius of 1500 km against 865-950 km at the F-35B. Such a small combat radius. The SU-30 will be able to reach Britain and release the same Onyx from a distance of 300 km. In total, the combat radius + firing range of the RCC for the British F-35 is approximately 1800 km, for our SU-30 - 2100 km.

    As for the fact that no one created ship-based anti-ship missiles with a range of over 500 km - Andrei from Chelyabinsk I told you already, I think too - LEARN MATCH. Such a Granite rocket, is it telling you something? But her firing range is under 700-800 km.

Take another option - during the hostilities the state will take the dictator, which will also cause a lot of discontent, and during the aftermath of hostilities he may not want to give up, by the way, let’s say that many still in wartime do not want to obey him. 1941 and 1812 is not an example, then there was a UNITED LEADERING ARMY AND COUNTRY, after the strike of Trident-2 it will not be, and there will be what I described above.

      Comrade your Wikipedia tells me that the range of the P-70 ranges from 550 to 625 km according to different data. Have you not overestimated anything there? For me it’s not news that normal aviation always surpasses ship's in TTX, but normal aviation at least needs the aerodrome and logistics to it, the aircraft carrier does not have such a problem, it is more universal, normal aviation will not fly out of the radius of its operation relative to the airfield, and the aircraft carrier, though not quickly, will deliver you an air group to almost any part of the world.

    just let's not start turning out. You wrote. that in comparison with the British AUG aircraft, the SU-30 has less range (although in such cases it’s not about range, but about the combat radius). I showed you on the numbers that no less, but almost two more

    Yes, land aviation is tied to an aerodrome and logistics. To increase the range will require tankers. But what, for an aircraft carrier, is this not relevant? Does an aircraft carrier have a breakthrough in aviation fuel and ammunition and can it fly for months and conduct combat operations? Yes, he will deliver the air group exclusively to the place that he can reach at one gas station. The simplest example. The Queen Elizabeth has a range of 10000 nautical miles or roughly 19000 km. To the same Falkland Islands about 14500 km. This means that the aircraft carrier will reach the islands. but to go back - alas. Logistics for the fleet means much more than for land aviation. It will be necessary to replenish stocks of fuel, water, food, ammunition, and not only for an aircraft carrier, but also for escort ships. so that "almost anywhere in the world" the aircraft carrier will not deliver its air group. Yes, as a tool it is more flexible than land aviation. But only

    Comrade, if Britain withdraws its 3 Wengards to the ocean, the Russian Federation will bring its strategic nuclear forces and missile defense to combat readiness, verified in the Caribbean crisis ..

    Do not confuse the events of the crisis. with modernity. Then, days could have elapsed between the release of the boats (all at sea) and the outbreak of war, since it was necessary to get to the position. And the opposite side to detect that all boats left the base. Now it is much easier. And with a high degree of probability, if all the boats leave the base, this means that not only will the strategic nuclear forces be alerted, but also a preventive strike is possible. Of course, the basis for a decision will be not only the exit of boats from the base. but also an analysis of a number of factors

    And you say that you worked in Russia and you know the Russian mentality well? have you still not understood that comparing, for example, 1917, and the situation that you hypothetically described is NOT CORRECT. The struggle for power in the conditions of anarchy in the country, when the country, although it was at war, was by no means in the depths of its territory and the situation when the country was attacked. It will not just be no government. With a certain degree of probability, it can be destroyed. But this is not a reason for the struggle for power and the start of the Civil War. Maybe when the war ends, such situations of struggle for power may arise, but not during the war. You do not know Russian. We are very, very unpredictable. Sometimes we can respond to your trick with such nonsense that your analysts will go crazy trying to predict such a development option.

    ALWAYS FOR THE NORMAL FUNCTIONING OF THE STATE A HEAD IS NEEDED, which will not happen, each FD will put forward its own candidate for president (by the way, where and how are you going to arrange the elections?),.

    We, as well as you, have a peculiar hierarchy of persons who can consistently take the post of head of state, in case of his death. So do not assume that in Russia everything is so dense, and the death of the president will lead to a division of power and the Civil War.
    just as it’s not worth considering us absolutely stupid that we will immediately begin to prepare for the elections. It is you who can play democracy, arranging elections in this case. even if the entire elite, hierarchically stated in the constitution, as the successors of the head of state are knocked out, the leaders of the federal district, who for the most part are former generals, can take power. In the end, the military can take power, and in such an emergency, they simply take power into their own hands, installing, call it what you like, dictatorship, junta or whatever. And don’t worry. There will be no protests and rallies. Is it possible for them to get a racket like Navalny, Sobchak, Akhidzhakova, etc. We, unlike you, are dark people, we are not accustomed to democracies, but we know and know how to rally around a leader ..... so do not count on a color revolution.

    after the strike of Trident-2 it will not be, and there will be what I described above.

    After being hit by the British Tridents. After all, the whole fuss is going on around this? So, for starters, Britain will have to decide what to do. Commit suicide in order to get scorched islands as a result, or what?
    I already wrote that Russia has a missile defense system in Moscow. How much she can intercept - also wrote. It turns out that in order to strike, and in such a way that guaranteed to break through to Moscow at least ONE Trident-2, the British will need to spend at least 20% of their arsenal. And even then, without a guarantee of the destruction of anything .. Moscow has an approximate size of 100 km to 40 km in the widest part. Agree that 4 charges of 100 kt per such area is a mosquito bite. Even if such nodes as the Kremlin, FSB buildings, the Ministry of Defense are destroyed, this does not mean that the entire leadership of the country will be destroyed. True, I can’t even imagine what will happen to Britain. You can evenly distribute the remaining missiles, as you wrote between cities with a population of 500 thousand or more. True, the entire military-industrial complex is by no means concentrated there.
    That is, a nuclear war to the meddle by Britain and Russia is an act of suicide of Britain in a particularly sophisticated form

    Sure? Do I need to paint the situation with Britain’s nuclear weapons for the tenth time? Repeat? I am not proud. I can repeat it. Britain has 3 boats with 48 missiles on board. The approximate amount of BG on one rocket is FOUR.
    The Moscow missile defense system is capable of intercepting 18 paired targets. Total 36 goals. In total, 36 goals mean NINE Trident-2 missiles. So what remains with Britain? 39 missiles with approximately 160 warheads.
    How much are you willing to spend on the destruction of Moscow? Did the Americans at one time plan to hit 7-8 megaton-class charges with an area of ​​Moscow in those years three times = four times less than now? And how much after that will remain for other purposes in the country, so that, as you say, they are "not so bold." as in the comments? The victims will be huge. But the country will not die. And the potential will not decrease significantly. For information, the Americans, when planning attacks on our mines, planned 2 heads of 100 ct.

    This does not speak of mentality, but of the pragmatism of Russians. We live far less richly than some others. And therefore, when buying a particular product, we consider it according to the criterion of "cost-effectiveness". The Germans showed themselves very well in terms of quality. And if there is a choice to take, for example, a car, then our people look not only at the label where it was made, but also at the quality and price. If in this regard the product suits, then out of the mass of options, for example, I repeat the car, a person can choose “Opel”, for example, rather than “Renault”, “Chevrolet” or a Japanese-Chinese there.
    Yes, many of our consumer goods do not reach Western standards. Nobody argues with that. And if there is an option to choose domestic or Western products - I choose not according to the principle of patriotism (they say I will buy only everything Russian), but from pragmatic reasons. This is pragmatism, and not the mentality of taking everything foreign.

    The Russians don’t throw out the garbage “separately”, the German will throw it away, this already speaks of the state’s priorities in financial matters. You can still continue ..

    Want to talk about "junk issues." I don’t see what is the priority in financial matters. But I will say that in some ways you are right. Indeed, for a long time we did not throw garbage "separately." Now there are changes in this. Personally, in my yard, in addition to "ordinary" garbage containers, there are containers for plastic bottles. As I heard, questions about the appearance of containers for tin containers (cans) seem to be being resolved. And the reason here is not the “denseness” of Russians and their mentality. The question is different, that often there was no capacity for processing such products. And to solve such issues it was necessary within, if not the city specifically, then within the subject. Last year, a plastic processing workshop was launched in our city. A number of smelters have been opened in the neighboring town. So here it’s not only the mentality that matters, but sometimes the possibilities

    Comrade: the head of the Black Sea Fleet, the north, the chiefs of the Military District, and so on, everyone will fight, and everyone will have their own army, then that the other "older in rank" can be corrected, criticized, "give a vote of no confidence", conquered by oratory, promise that then ... all this has already been successfully used in the struggle for power ..
    .
    You forget only one thing. In Russia, fortunately in certain cases, there is simply no democracy, especially in the army. There is a very tough one-man management. In the event of an attack of the same Moscow, no one will hold rallies, meetings, decide whether to obey a superior or send him three letters. There will simply be no oratory, a vote of no confidence and other democratic husk. There will be a call on ZAS from orders to open an envelope with a specific number or a certain color. Run and report. The Russian military organism is different from the western and in particular the American one. The Russian soldier will not go on strike and refuse to go into battle because there will be “shrapnel” instead of buckwheat for breakfast. And about the fact that some kind of ice cream was not brought for breakfast

    Even after the collapse of the USSR (although in principle the government was) everything did not go smoothly; there were gangs, the proclamation of independence of Chechnya, the semi-independence of some federal districts, in general, a "mess" in a state from which the Russian Federation could still not get out. And this is only during the collapse of the USSR .And if there was that same Trident-2 attack on the USSR, many, very many believed in the ideals of the USSR ...

    You are confusing causes and effects. The reason for the "mess" was not the presence or absence of government as a result of the collapse of the USSR. The reason was Yeltsin’s destructive, destructive activity in the last years of the USSR’s existence, when he called for “taking as much sovereignty as you can take away,” thereby giving the green light to the collapse of the country from the inside. Even with such a weak president as Gorbachev there was no such treason. They appeared closer to 1990 as a result of the activities of Yeltsin. Yes, there were gangs, there was Chechnya, there was a semi-independence of some national republics as part of the Russian Federation (and not FD). BUT, the country's margin of safety was so great that even 10 years of the reign of Yeltsin and his "associates", who took the visor to any Western proposals, could not lead to the collapse of Russia. But these are the country's internal disasters. External aggression - an attack by the Trident would lead to cohesion, and not to "confusion and reeling." It was external aggression that always united the people, regardless of ideology. There is an enemy - he must be destroyed. And everything else is then .....

    Comrade, I didn’t introduce any new variables, I just argued that the AUG is currently vulnerable on the high seas (if you do not take nuclear weapons), only submarines and DAs. This is a more versatile and long-range weapon than the same Su-30s, Granit, "Onyx"...

    Even if we do not take nuclear weapons, but imagine a hypothetical war between Britain and Russia, then its AUG in the amount of one will be vulnerable. And this is no more versatile and long-range weapon than ground aviation. Yes, I agree that in some situations the AUG will be more universal than the same ground forces. But only if the object of impact is outside the combat radius of the aircraft + anti-ship missiles launched from them. In all other cases, it can be more universal, but by no means long-range. Taking the same AUG currently existing in Britain. The combat radius of aircraft is less than 1000 km. This is a lot (1/3 less than the same combat radius of the SU-30. Even with the adoption of the American (even if it will not be anti-ship missiles, but a missile defense system for coastal operations with a range of 900 km, this will not solve the problem. " The “arm” of carrier-based aviation (combat radius + missile range) will be less than that of the SU-30. Even if these planes try to attack the same Kuznetsov-Peter pair, nothing will come of them. The range of the cruiser’s air defense systems is quite large. The speed of American anti-ship missiles is subsonic. Moreover, to get target designation, the planes will have to get close enough to the “pair.” The missiles will be intercepted even when approaching. And no one can say who will win in this “brawl." escort or the same AUG. as a part of even if not a full-fledged aircraft carrier, but with a full-fledged cruiser

      Comrade, the British are not suicides, and in the Russian Federation they understand this perfectly (except for Zadorny))) the dialogue, of course I will say it is exaggerated, but still the dialogue will be something like this:

      (Situation: Britain wants to put the remaining 2 Vengards into the sea)
      RF - if you bring your 2 Wangard to the ocean, we will open a preemptive strike
      Britain is our Navy, do what we want
      (The Russian Federation understands that Britain is not suicide and will not strike, Britain also understands that the Russian Federation will not open a preemptive strike, because the Russian Federation understands that they are not suicides and the British will not launch Trident-2, and that the Russian Federation does not want to lose at least the capital , and plunge the country is unclear what. Britain brings the rest of the "Wangard" into the ocean)
      -RF declares that 3 Vengards do not pose a threat to the state, but all the same, our missile defense and strategic nuclear forces systems are brought into full use.
      (the situation is decided by diplomats, and everyone disagrees peacefully)

      Comrade, the war with Britain will not end even before it begins, there’s nothing even to unite the people, they just won’t have time. Next, internal affairs will go. And what will happen - a lot of contention and problems that will lead to the Civil War: someone will be for the restoration of the federation, someone for the establishment of a dictatorship, someone for the establishment of a dictatorship of a different person, and so on ... And radiation after the impact will remain to take with them even more lives. In 1941 and 1812, people rallied during the already existing political system and when there were already leading personalities, near whom people rallied. Needless to say, different people have different pretenders for the role of the very person who will lead him people. And they will fight for it, the same beginning of the XNUMXth century for Russia, many went after Kerensky, Lenin, Kolchak, Makhno .... and in each of these people many people saw that same leader, dictator.

      Speaking of Moscow.Moscow is the cultural, economic, political, scientific center of the Russian Federation. The salary of a janitor in Moscow is more than that of a skilled worker, somewhere in the Urals. Most of the design bureaus are located in Moscow and so on. Whatever the provinces say, but almost everyone who has received at least some kind of education goes to Moscow. And how much invested in the standard of living in Moscow? I had to visit some cities of Moscow oblast, I still haven’t said anything, I haven’t remembered anything from the names, but I hope you will understand me. And this is just the capital’s area! look after, "I had to go there, but there are much more groomed areas. So, with the loss of Moscow, the Russian Federation will lose: most of the country's scientific potential, lose a huge number of people, huge budget investments, government ..... it will not clear the country what it is.

      Speaking of the mentality. Comrade just don’t tell me that a Country with a second army on the planet doesn’t have the opportunity to set up plastic processing plants all over the country. Comrade from the same Germans, all the cities in the picture, they like, take care of their They protect their country and the environment, in the Russian Federation this is not the case yet. German laws are very strict. For the slightest violation (which the Russian Federation simply will not pay attention to) you will receive a very large fine, after which you will no longer want to violate this law. This is a question of organization .Germans themselves are a very organized people, and they do everything "in good faith", which is why a Russian, even with the same price and quality of two goods (German and Russian) will always choose German.
