Media: Trump's rocket plans will violate the terms of the INF Treaty

US President Donald Trump, having signed the national defense bill in December, approved the development of a missile that violates the terms of the Treaty on the Elimination of Intermediate-Range and Short-Range Missiles, Time magazine writes.

Media: Trump's rocket plans will violate the terms of the INF Treaty




The project budget for a land-based mobile cruise missile is 25 million dollars. New development, as noted in the article, should be a direct response to the "deployment" of Russia's own missiles, "contrary to" the treaty.

Nuclear expert arms Steven Schwartz is confident that the development violates the terms of the INF Treaty.

The bill requires the Minister of Defense to spend millions of dollars on the development of a non-nuclear mobile rocket, which would be contrary to the terms of the contract if it is tested, manufactured or deployed.
He remarked.

According to the director for disarmament and reducing the level of threats of the Association for Arms Control Kingston Rafe, the new American rocket increases the likelihood that Russia will respond with an official denunciation of the treaty, reports RIA News

      Mr. All-Propeller, are you sure that Russia does not have an “ace up its sleeve” in the form of development of INF systems? Even to take technologies of the times of the USSR, they too were not thrown into the trash.

    A modified caliber mounted on the Iskander chassis already exists and has been tested.
    The contract was partially violated (tests were). But not completely disrupted (production not established).

    If the Americans begin to test their future development, they will partially violate the contract.

      The Americans have universal launchers installed for missile defense. Can be used to launch Tomahawks. There are tests, and mass production, and the possibility of mass application. From this point of view, the United States has long violated it.

        In fact, you are right.
        But "legally" there is a formality: from the GROUND universal
        launch containers Tomahawks NEVER started. Only from the sea.
        So - formally - they did not violate the contract. Although in fact there is little difference, of course.
        In short, you need to sit down at the negotiating table and specify the types of weapons, types of launch and wording.

            That's right. For example: launch Caliber from the Caspian Sea
            from a missile boat (or any barge) - everything is strictly by agreement.
            And pull the same installation to the nearest beach and bedrooms - a gross violation of the contract.
            That's why I say: you have to sit again at the negotiating table and redo the contract
            about medium-range missiles.

          So Callibre with a ground launcher formally did not violate anything. There, the rocket is a sight rocket, with a short range, not subject to restrictions.

        Can not. There is no suitable equipment for starting.
        The MK-41 launcher alone is not enough to launch, for each type of missile there must be an appropriate launch subsystem, on land it is not

        Americans usually rely on such messages:
        Tests of two missile systems carried out on May 29 at once - ICBM RS-24 and KR R-500 - are still a mystery to military specialists. If the RS-24 is, apparently, a modernized version of the “Topolya-M” with an RCG from the Bulava SLBM, the R-500 can be a ground-based version of the 3M54 Caliber-NK naval anti-ship cruise missile (export designation “Club-M” "- Club-M).

        It may or may not be, but as evidence will come down, so the Russians are guilty of anyway!

    For 25 million there, perhaps only preliminary R&D can begin. Or maybe they’ll just monitor our reaction. For their military-industrial complex, this is not the sum. Although, in general, it’s not difficult for them to create a mobile complex for Axes (for us for Caliber). Or remove one step from the intercontinental missile, turning it into an RSD and installing it on a mobile chassis - also not Newton’s bin. Moreover, on both sides, all these technologies have not gone anywhere.

    While we can sleep peacefully, but not always so. The book of Revelation warns: “And another horse came out, fiery red, and the rider sitting on it was allowed to take peace from the earth so that people would kill each other. And he was given a great sword ”(6: 4).

    Jesus, speaking of this war, warned: “The [εγερθησεται] people [εθνος] will rise against the [επι] people [εθνος], and the [και] kingdom [βασιλεια] against the [επι] kingdom [βασιλειαν], the tremors [σει] τε] significant [μεγαλοι] and [και] along and across [κατα] regions [τοπους] smooth [λιμοι] and [και] epidemics [λοιμοι] will be [εσονται]. The terrifying things [φοβητρα] also [τε] and [και] unusual phenomena [σημεια] from [απ] the sky [ουρανου] mighty [μεγαλα] will [εσται] ”(Luke 21:10, 11). Some ancient manuscripts contain the words of Jesus “and frosts” [και χειμωνες], and in Mark 13: 8 “and riots” [και ταραχαι].

    “The Great Sword”, “powerful terrifying and unusual phenomena from the sky”, “significant tremors, smoothness and epidemics across entire regions”, “riots, (chaos)”. A major consequence of this “sword” will also be climate change and hunger (Revelation 6: 5, 6). What does all this mean? Yes, we have here a complete picture of the consequences of a global nuclear war. Jesus warns us against all the threats posed by this war.

    All this is connected only with this war. Jesus pointed out that: “All this is precisely the beginning of labor pains” (Matthew 24: 7, 8).

    Who will be the first to use this weapon? When will this happen? I recall a fragment of an ancient vision: “And [the king of the north] will return to his land with great movable property [1945. This detail indicated that Hitler would also attack the Soviet Union and fight until the very bitter end. In the beginning there were no signs of such an end to the war], and his heart was against the covenant of the saint [there was then state atheism in the USSR, and the believers were repressed], and will act [this means activity on the international arena], and will return to his land [1991- 1993. The collapse of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact, the Russian troops returned to their land]. At the appointed time, he will return back [this also means the collapse of the EU and NATO]. And it will go south, but it will not be as earlier [2008 - Georgia] or later [Ukraine], because the inhabitants of the Kittim coast [the Americans] will come against it, and it will be dejected and return ”(Daniel 11: 28-30a).

    The third time there will be a military confrontation with the United States (regardless of who then will be the president of the United States). “The people will rise against the people” (similar to 2008), and then “kingdom to kingdom”. The hot spot may be Georgia.

    In 1882, Great Britain conquered Egypt and assuming the role of “southern king”. More or less at the same time, Russia took the position of “king of the north”, expanding its influence in the territories that once belonged to Seleucus I (Daniel 11:27). All predictions from this vision come true (from the time of Ancient Persia) with 100% accuracy, in chronological order.

    Now it’s clear (although everything was clear even before that), what the hell with the accusations of Russia of violating this treaty was there — they wanted to create an information background so that without losing their face they themselves would withdraw from this treaty - well, like the Russians are the first and let there be no evidence, we don’t need them - just believe, the treacherous Russians were the first to break the contract.

    Only a complete deer does not understand that a hot war between Russia and 3.14ndostan and his vassals is inevitable like sunrise, and all attempts to avoid it only bring the inevitable closer. 3.14ndos are VERY afraid of human and material losses at home, so our response to START-3 and the NPT should be Russia's response to the US withdrawal from the INF. When we had 46000 charges, the mattresses were laid with bricks around the clock, knowing about the terrible consequences of the war with the USSR. Our task is not to try to catch up with NATO in conventional weapons, to make an attack on Russia a pure suicide for any country or coalition of countries. It may be better if we have a thousand tanks and a hundred thousand soldiers, but several thousand modern ICBMs and infantry ballistic regiments, carrying a sea of ​​light and heat into the enemy’s house, will look at the enemy.
