Early warning system: a few minutes to respond to a nuclear strike

To ensure border security, it is not enough to have in service with carriers of nuclear warheads. Of course, any adversary's desire to carry out an attack on Russia's borders is reduced to a minimum, since the adversary is aware that Russia is a nuclear power. However, for any nuclear power, from a security point of view, an extremely important element is also such a type of military-technical support as a missile attack warning system. Indeed, in the absence of an early warning missile system, it is possible to possess any nuclear potential in terms of volume, but that critical moment may come when such a potential simply cannot be used.

A nuclear power must have time to retaliate to maintain a strategic balance. It is the presence of an early warning missile system that provides such time. If the enemy has dealt a nuclear strike, then there is a few minutes available to make a timely decision: both for an attempt to intercept missiles and for a retaliatory strike - that is, for retaliatory measures.

The missile attack warning system is a high-tech tool for detecting missile launches at a distance of several thousand kilometers.

How the early warning system works, what methods are used to track missile launches, how potentially dangerous objects and directions are monitored, is described in the issue of Military Acceptance at the Zvezda shopping center. There you can also learn about the work of the so-called "nuclear suitcase".

and most importantly - inform war, trade with the doves of peace in the United States about the ways and means of maintaining stability .. a private of the propaganda front in the service. what they did, they praised. we just returned to the level of the 80s and early 90s in terms of strategic parity with our sworn partners. AND THE RATE OF CAPITAL TURNOVER IS LOW AND THE INFRASTRUCTURAL LIMITATIONS OF GROWTH HAVE NOT OVERCOMED. this is already our loss - our partners need it.

I wrote about eternal music. With batteries. And our level is indicated in the rank of world countries. There is nothing to boast about. We have only overcome the failures of the 80s and 90s without the independent development of the country.

Complete nonsense, because the decision to launch a nuclear strike on the enemy will be taken by us even before the early warning system goes off. For this there is the GRU General Staff, which since the eighties has automated the collection and processing of all intelligence information in order to inform the country's leadership in advance about the impending attack from our potential adversaries. So the early warning system will fulfill its role only if our military intelligence sleeps through everything. Even now, as far as I understand, the over-the-horizon radar stations of this system will be used more for guidance than for detecting the very moment of launch. Although, as I understand it, several different over-the-horizon radars with different capabilities have now been created, but in any case, their practical application will occur only after the launch of enemy missiles, and we must get ahead of our enemies in this.

Well, intelligence reported about a nuclear strike in half an hour. What will you do? Launch missiles, what if the GRU spy John Mackenzie works for the PRC and only sleeps and sees how Russia and the United States will destroy each other?

Generally, there is a multilevel collection of information from various sources capable of determining the state of the enemy's strategic nuclear forces and what is being done in the control centers. And undercover sources are not in the first roles there, so the trick with John will not work.

[Blackmokona]

1.Well, we clicked, China wines.
2. You see, you yourself have come to the need for an early warning system. Which will determine. What flies, where and how much. And a number of echelons so that a failure on one does not ruin everything. And there's also a dead hand at the very end of the tiered verification systems.

You will first decide whether two countries will attack us at once or one - this is important to understand in order to determine your adequacy in assessing the current situation.

Quote: BlackMokona

You see, we ourselves have reached the need for an early warning system.

You got to this point, and I believe that this is just a safety system in case it is not possible to reveal the enemy's preparation for a nuclear war before the launch of the first missiles. I think that the probability of such an event lies within hundredths or tenths of one percent.

Quote: BlackMokona

And there's also a dead hand at the very end of the tiered verification systems.

These are more journalistic tales, because we simply have to destroy the enemy with the first launch. The further is no longer interested.

[Blackmokona]

1. In my example, the GRU reports that the USA is attacking, you strike at the USA and they strike back. USA and Russia to ashes, China celebrates victory. And the GRU agent was under the control of the PRC.
2. No, it will shoot as a demonstration of the practice of the erroneous NORAD program, only when nuclear missiles have already begun to explode in cities. Until that moment, they will wait sitting next to the button. And it was this that saved us then from a nuclear war, since all the means of the early warning system showed a massive nuclear strike from the USSR. But the US was waiting.
3. There is a dead hand in the United States, it is a simple and understandable system. If the enemy has a massive nuclear strike, which we missed for some reason, or the leadership did not dare to strike back. The answer will still be.

Such an option is impossible, only China will hardly need both territories, even if this happens. What is their victory if the radioactive ash also arrives at them?

Quote: BlackMokona

And the GRU agent was under the control of the PRC.

You just read books about Bond - I see no reason to explain to you that you are just fantasizing, because one person, even the president of a country, cannot start a nuclear war on his own accord. This is due to the fact that a nuclear apocalypse is ruled out, if the president gets mad.

In principle, this cannot be, if only because not only the military, but also the country's elite must prepare for this.

This is the weakest link in our system, although Putin has unequivocally stated that we will go to heaven, which means he has already decided for himself. At least I hope so.

5) Yes, when you find yourself convinced that the attack is false and get hit in the forehead by the entire enemy arsenal. But you still need to take revenge. Thus, it reduces the chance of an accidental war, since it grants you the right to think that the attack is false without risking complete defeat in mutual destruction.

4. You never know what there, for example, during the loading of the wrong program into NORAD, the US Doomsday plane took off without a present and he was not even informed about the situation. There he continued his health jogging while the nuclear arsenals were preparing for a retaliatory strike, and the aircraft rose into the sky.

And where did you get the idea, if all of Putin's entourage is under sanctions and cannot go abroad? They are all in the same boat, so do not expect that someone will want to fight each other on it.

Over-the-horizon radars - those that use the effect of the reflection of radio waves from the ionosphere - are intended only for tracking targets within the atmosphere: aircraft, cruise missiles, etc. Moreover, they are able to signal only the fact of flight, and cannot be used for guidance. The early warning radars are all over-the-horizon ... and, having a range of no more than 6 thousand km, they will give only a 10-15-minute "head start" for deciding on a "retaliatory strike". They will not be able to resist a massive missile launch of a potential enemy in any way; and, by and large, their role is only to demonstrate the country's readiness to resist possible aggression

[ccsr]

Quite right, that is why the main thing in reconnaissance activities is to detect the enemy's preparation for a nuclear strike - this is what will give us time to deliver a preemptive strike even before the enemy launches missiles. And the early warning system does not play any role for this - it works after launch, which means that we will definitely lose in time if we rely only on it.

It would not be superfluous to say that in 1941, to Comrade I.V. Stalin, intelligence at all levels reported on the real preparation of Nazi Germany for an attack on the USSR. So what? They knew, heard, saw, understood. But they had little time to do, since from June 22 to July 1, millions of our soldiers were captured by the Nazis, they were killed by aerial bombardment and, as a result of artillery shelling from the Nazis in Germany and united Europe, civilians, young and old. What have our troops been able to oppose to the enemy since June 22? Exceptionally massive heroism and self-sacrifice. But won't it turn out the same, only with a more tragic end in our time?
