Pentagon: war in space - a matter of several years

Within a few years, the war in space will begin, and the Americans will seek superiority in outer space, reports RIA News Statement by Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force David Goldfein.

I believe that we will strike from space in a few years. And we (the US Air Force) are a branch of the military, which must lead joint operations in this new disputed territory. This is what the country requires.

Goldfein said at the annual Florida Air Force Symposium.

He stressed that in a short period, Americans need to achieve superiority in outer space.

Goldfein also expressed the view that "to enhance the firepower of the United States, it is necessary to integrate intelligence and communication capabilities in all dimensions: in the air, on land, in the sea, in cyberspace and in space."

In addition, according to him, the US Air Force "requires a new generation of commanders."

As the online publication Space News reported, the US Air Force's budget for space programs this year was $ 7,75 billion, which is 20% higher than in 2017. Next year, it is planned to increase this budget item to $ 8,5 billion.

Well, then - there are already space marines, they should at least do something

[bulvas]

Nevertheless, we will live to see the time when the satellites will not fly freely over foreign territories and will immediately go astray.

Forget satellite communications
We'll have to launch drones for communication, which will fly only in their spaces

Just think, planes fly around and satellites fly around. Provide them with a steering pen - and all matters.

If it comes to war in space, then the disappearance of entire continents on planet Earth will be very close. For example, before disappearing primarily from the face of the Earth, North America with its USA.

Ha! We know this. But the Americans (with the collective West) are not sure about this.
They now have a construction boom there on the construction of comfortable underground bunkers with the survivability of the owners, their servants and guards - right up to 10 years - after a nuclear disaster as a result of a world nuclear war.

No, dear! You are far from the construction business, its marketing and advertising, whose lobbyists very much influence the policies of all countries and their strategic decisions in their favor!

No, dear! Are you far from the construction business, its marketing and advertising,

well yes yes yes .... heresy about the construction boom of bunkers all over the world - it is a HERESY .... or do you think nuclear physics and the laws of nature are only well taught in the Russian Federation?

[Tatyana]

Tiksi-3
Do you think nuclear physics and the laws of nature only in the Russian Federation are well taught?

And where is it? I am talking about an elementary construction business and lobbying for its interests in the sales market!

You might think that all those wealthy private owners who order similar "cities" of bomb shelter - already, at several floor levels - from nuclear explosions themselves are well versed in physics or in construction ?! Yes, they, like suckers, that the builders "vyyuryat" by earthly standards of comfort, they will buy !!!

then even the disappearance of entire continents on planet Earth will be very close.

Quite possible. I don’t remember who said: "The best air defense is our tanks at the enemy airfields." Similarly: “The best defense against space strikes is the Yars at Cape Canaveral and other American spaceports.”

[Starover_Z]

I believe that we will strike from space in a few years. And we (the US Air Force) are the kind of troops that should lead

Oh well ...

That's it ! Do they still dream of shooting down rockets? And if you split a flying capsule with old bolts and nuts, where will they be ?! And how then will their companions work, eh ?!

Why even run such information, let the movie be shot.

[Hagalaz]

Do you think they will be launched there?

[ul_vitalii]

Well, yes, they are closer to Hollywood.

[dog breeder]

So that Martians will pick you up there! It’s not enough here on Earth, so there too ...

[LiSiCyn]

SOI-2 ... Hmmm, let's see ... At that time, it was just a scam ... It's time from the S-500, to shoot down a couple of satellites ...

[Yrec]

What the hell is going on? Everyone broke off the chain, or what? For whom is he going to strike from space? The "new generation of commanders" are those who are not afraid to burn out in a nuclear firebox? Or burn others? It seems that the time has come to destroy the dollar, as the main currency. Otherwise, everything may end badly.

[aszzz888]

The campaign of the mericatos has long surpassed Hitler in part of the thirst for war. A brutal nation, arrogantly wanting to rule the whole world.

[K-50]

Until there are fundamentally new opportunities for flights, not rocket engines, but something fundamentally different, all these statements can be judged as delirium by the patient with the mind.

No, not fiction. IMHO, part of a hybrid war - the propaganda part, dust in the eyes, smoke screen in order to divert attention from the real preparation for war here - on earth. For this, armadas of equipment and manpower are being transferred to the European continent, bases are equipped 40 km from the Russian border, launchers with a range of 1500 km (and this is not the limit) are located on the territory of Romania (and hereinafter referred to as Moldova), they suppose to supplant the influence Russia from the territory of Donbass and equip similar launch complexes there (as the odious General B. Rogers said). The Americans have already equipped three bases in Ruin, the Chernobyl dirty zone is also under their control, delivering launchers is a matter of the week, hence the conclusion - do it yourself.

Fiction read a man

Do not you remember the discussion about their general who compared the world with the series "Wars of Thrones"? This oddball from the same opera, the language as boldly, is worse than the women of the market, and the brains in the head are even smaller.

[rotmistr60]

we will strike from space in a few years

These few years still need to be lived, which under current Washington policy can become problematic. The American warrior should not forget that there are other space countries that perfectly understand what American dominance in space can lead to. Therefore, do not sit idly by.

[Dmitry V.]

If we take into account the number of military facilities in space, then at the moment the United States is bypassing Russia. To date, the American space group has about 500 satellites. Each year, the United States launches about 30 more satellites, spending up to $ 25 billion a year to maintain this wealth.
The Russian group, according to the deputy commander of the Space Forces of the Russian Federation for armament, Lieutenant General Oleg Gromov, had in its assets 58 spacecraft, 40 of which solved exclusively military tasks, and 18 were dual-use vehicles.

[shinobi]

The explosion of one single ammunition in 1Mgt in the Vanalen belt, all systems integrated with satellites will become deaf and blind. And half of the equipment on the earth will burn out. It has already passed, SOI and all that.

in space? there is no oil!

[Humans war]

There are planets there, there are also minerals on the planets, but they are very necessary.
It is necessary to develop, develop, and not steal, forgive, help.
What opportunities, discoveries and explorations promise the cosmos is not easy to imagine.
Amerziks are shy, but their fantasies make sense.

We should think ...

[shinobi]

There’s nothing to think about. Everything is new, well-forgotten old. I blew off the dust from Reagan's speeches and gave out as a new revelation. Not even funny.

[Humans war]

I don’t know where I blew and what I blew there.
There really is nothing to think about ...
Let the earrings achieve excellence.
And we don’t have anything to think about.
Well, okay ...

And so the Earth’s cosmic rubbish is preostatic, there’s just not enough shooting rubbish. Then there will also be space "garbage" that "accidentally" finds itself on its trajectory.

[shinobi]

Well, we already heard this from Reagan. The second time it won’t crawl through. And so, by the way, only the Chinese and we have anti-satellite weapons.

[DimanC]

Urgently needed Oleg Kaptsov and his project of the space armored (!) Battleship

[Alexey-74]

Again these tales about the war in space. Neither the United States nor Russia are silent for others in general, for the next decade they will certainly not be able to fight in space because of technological progress has not yet matured. The Pentagon mastered the cut of money by 100%, but with rocket launches they have a little weak. The Americans buy engines from us, their commercial projects in general, how the truck works, the Shuttle program was turned off ........ and what next ??? !!! Again, "Star Wars" have seen enough. In Russia, everything seems to be in order, but missiles often fall ..... quality is lame and everyone steals around ......

[Aleksandr21]

Well, why, if you take the orbit of our planet, then in the coming decades there is a danger of a new SOI, the technology from that time still made a leap forward and especially in the field of microelectronics. And space for the most part in the USA was given to private owners (the commercial part), and the defense industry remained with the US Air Force. Engines and some of what they buy from us, but look at the number and variety of LVs in the USA in recent years and the percentage of use of our RD-180 in general ....

Yes. And preferably with brains

Continents were, are and will be. But a few countries from the face of the earth in this case may disappear. If the sum is, then
1. USA
2. Russia
3. China
the rest in the order of the busy queue ...

Quote: Tatiana

Ha! We know this. But the Americans (with the collective West) are not sure about this.

In the famous novel, Professor Preobrazhensky told Dr. Barmental that he should not read Soviet newspapers.

In this case, you should not believe everything that modern media broadcast. The US military knows just as well what will be and how. But some farmer from Oklahomshchina, after reading the American media, will be sure that America will remain, but Russia will not. And similarly, the same peasant from the Ryazan region, after reading our media, will be sure that the United States will not, and we will be in chocolate ...

Well, comrade! You, as they say, started for health, and then turned onto a cheers-patriotic path. They correctly said that neither we nor the Americans are technologically ready for this yet. And then they exchanged money on something that the accuser always emphasizes. On the engines. Can I find out how bad they are with them? Or how do you write a little weak? On average, about 20% of carriers fly on RD brand engines. That is one fifth. And EIGHTY percent on their engines. How weak is this? They, whose engines are weak with the engines, are already driving a methane engine for testing, and we have been saying for 10-15 years that such an engine should be made.
The shuttle program was turned off, here you are right, and then what? Last year, the Americans launched 29 against 20 of ours. 43 are planning for this year against 23 of ours? Is it your "weak" with them?

What else do we have? Launches of heavy missiles ("Protons") are practically reduced to zero. Now, those satellites that we launched for others with Protons, the Americans will launch on their Falcons. In the near future - several types of spaceships, both cargo and unmanned (18-19 years). Our "Federation" gradually moved to 2024.

And about the Star Wars. Of course you shouldn’t make a fit of it, but you shouldn’t sweep it either. What was fiction in the early 80s may not be fiction anywhere in the early 2030s. And we are giggles. Yes, they did not "shmogli" then even come closer to those systems that were voiced. But within the framework of this program, they adopted the communications and control systems that were planned at that time. You think that all these network-centric wars are notions of the second decade of this century. Alas. This is from there, from the Star Wars. They just don’t talk about it. Not as spectacular as orbital lasers ...

Well, then you need to prepare tons of nails
