The Pentagon has begun creating instant global strike capabilities
The Pentagon has begun creating promising instant global strike systems, reports RIA News message from the representative of the Russian Ministry of Defense Alexander Emelyanov.
He noted that “in non-nuclear equipment, these complexes should solve the same tasks that are assigned to strategic nuclear forces today.”
He emphasized that “the creation of means of an instant global strike is another factor that confirms Washington’s desire to destroy the existing balance of power and ensure global strategic dominance.”
The representative of the Russian department also pointed out that the reconnaissance means of the American missile defense system “are capable of not only detecting the launch of Russian missiles, but also providing target designations for intercepting their warheads.” According to Emelyanov, “the fire capabilities of the US missile defense system, taking into account their modernization, pose a threat to the Russian deterrence potential.”
Emelyanov noted that the American system also threatens security in space. The Americans' anti-missile capabilities will reach a new level as a result of expanding the low-orbit detection system: data will be transmitted from the satellite to the anti-missile missile, he added.
Implementing the concept of joint use of offensive and defensive weapons, the Pentagon began to create promising strike systems for instant global strike,
Yemelyanov said on the sidelines of the first committee of the UN General Assembly. He noted that “in non-nuclear equipment, these complexes should solve the same tasks that are assigned to strategic nuclear forces today.”
The relationship between plans to deploy a missile defense system and create instant global strike capabilities is obvious. When delivering a “disarming” strike against Russian and Chinese strategic nuclear forces, the effectiveness of the American missile defense system increases significantly,
