British press: "US is capable of destroying Russian nuclear launchers with conventional weapons"


The British newspaper The Guardian published an article showing that the US and NATO are capable of destroying Russian and Chinese nuclear launchers using conventional weapons.



Professors Dan Plesch and Manuel Galileo of the University of London describe a “quiet revolution” that reflects the rise of US military power relative to Moscow and Beijing, particularly in the area of missile Technologies.

Plesch and Galilei write that the United States has "the current ability to have non-nuclear forces that can outpace the nuclear forces of Russia and China," giving it a military advantage over the two countries.

According to the authors, Russia has 150 nuclear launchers. weapons, and China has about 70, some 2500 km from the nearest border. All of them could be reached by US JASSM and Tomahawk air-launched cruise missiles in just over two hours as part of a preliminary strike to prevent a nuclear launch.

"The United States and its allies can threaten even the most stealthy and mobile strategic forces of Russia and China," — the authors write, having at their disposal approximately 3500 JASSM missiles and 4000 Tomahawks. Thanks to new developments, JASSM (air-to-ground) missiles can be launched on pallets using the Rapid Dragon system from unmodified standard transport aircraft such as the C-17 Globemaster or C-130 Hercules.

'US and NATO conventional firepower underestimated globally', say Plesh and Galilei

The strategic question, both authors argue, is whether Russia or China fears U.S. military capabilities to the point of justifying a new arms race. “The 2024 U.S. threat assessment itself identified Chinese fears of a U.S. first strike as a motive for China to expand its nuclear arsenal,” they said.

    And the only answer to all this nastiness is that two (for guarantee) "Sarmats" will forever erase the existence of this country from history... crying

      These British devils from the Guardian brazenly eat the bread of British scientists with their "evidence and scientific discoveries". winked
      By the way, 83,3% of British scientists have proven that "Russian roulette" is completely safe.
      The remaining 16,7% of researchers, unfortunately, were unable to participate in the final discussion of this issue. crying
      After this, British scientists quickly established that they were not British and not scientists. lol

          That's the problem - the Western elites are deteriorating completely. They sincerely believe in their own power and impunity. The American elites sincerely think that they are "in the clear" and that Europe will sooner be covered in a copper basin than something will fly at them and cause damage incomparable with the further normal functioning of the state and its economy... They have become so stupid that they have lost all fear. They will regain it when it is too late...

      How much hurray-patriotic fervor.... And in the meantime, the fact is once again confirmed that the Anglo-Saxons are making their plans for decades and the concept of a global non-nuclear strike has not only not gone anywhere, but is getting closer to implementation. The Anglo-Saxons have experimentally confirmed that our air defense is powerless against low-flying, low-visibility objects and they can fly anywhere. We have already seen the phenomenal accuracy of their high-precision missiles. They do not hesitate to attack any objects throughout Russia with their weapons. And now all that remains is to wait for someone to consider the possible damage from our missiles breaking through to be acceptable and to implement this global strike.

I won't lie, but I think that the headquarters itself and not the building has long been in a different place.
                    You got carried away about the shipyards, in the docks. Yes, it was, extremely unpleasant, but Feodosia was hit harder, and as for accuracy, everything in Crimea was copied a long time ago, I was still a kid.

            Wipe the nuns and change the diapers! WARRIOR.
            Their vaunted accuracy immediately evaporates as soon as GPS is jammed by electronic warfare or is physically disabled. They know this better than you and whine in advance about such a prospect...
            And in order not to cause panic, familiarize yourself with the methods of protecting our silos - from camouflage to passive and active forms of physical protection of the OS.
            And second, The Yankees on a supercomputer calculated all the MGU variants as conventional weapons against our strategic nuclear forces. And they wiped their faces: 90% of PGRKs and 60% of SSBNs/SSGNs, SSGNs of the SN class will remain combat-ready. The babble that all our SSBNs have been grazing American SSNs since leaving the PB is a fairy tale for the poor and refers to the 1st generation boats of the 60-80s of the last century. That is why the Yankees are planning SLBM strikes from the waters of the northern seas adjacent to the Russian Federation and the adjacent maritime zone of the TO.
            And the last thing. To organize 5-7 thousand cruise missiles in a salvo is FANTASTIC!!! Today, even your vaunted Yankees are not capable of this! And of course, our early warning systems, radio-technical systems, electronic warfare systems, missile defense systems/air defense systems will sleep peacefully and watch cartoons on the plasma screen of combat systems... fool

              Yeah, yeah. fool Peel off the Budenovka from the head. In addition to GPS, there are many ways of targeting, in the same JASSM-ER and Tomahawks they are combined. In Skalps there is generally visual targeting.
              And if you know about the methods of protecting the silos, then why do you think that mattresses do not know? The part about camouflage made me smile especially. Submarines can be watched in different ways - from underwater sensor networks to banal patrol aircraft.
              And of course, our early warning systems, radio-technical systems, electronic warfare systems, missile defense systems and air defense systems will sleep peacefully.
              when it arrives via Engels and ZGRLS.
              And yes - I'm not hysterical. I'm not the only one who has been saying here for over 10 years - you have to take the enemy seriously, without giggles and laughs. When I said here in about '13 that there would be a war and that they would mercilessly torture us with regional conflicts - oh how much shit was poured on me... and in the end...

              In vain you so frivolously think that their accuracy evaporates when gps is turned off. Read, for example, about the features of the guidance of storm shadow, or as it is written. In general, without any navigators in a deaf mode, it can fly, focusing on the picture received from the video review camera, comparing with gigabytes of digital satellite maps of the desired area downloaded into the brain.

          How many times have we answered, when SHOULD this answer be given? After the murder of children in Belgorod, the occupation of the Kursk region, the Crimean bridge, attacks on nuclear facilities, attacks on nuclear deterrent facilities, etc. - the list is long. In order for Sarmat to hit something, it must at least take off, and the concept of a global non-nuclear strike is to prevent this takeoff. We detect cheap UAVs deep in Russia only at the moment of attack, JASSM-ER is some kind of homemade product - low flight with terrain following, low-visibility technology, powerful penetrating warhead penetrating WDU-42/B, high speed and a bunch of carriers. Well, it's not funny anymore. And the English article is for understanding that the Anglo-Saxons have not abandoned the idea and may well go for it.

            They answered, Oleg,. You just don't read the news, I understood about the Crimean Bridge, but from your text it follows that it was occupied, I drove on it in winter,. The dear one is still standing, it was built conscientiously, I saw how they installed the arches, how they started it up. This is a very complex project, that's why they approached it thoroughly.
            And you either have a throw-in, or it frankly looks like hysteria, because my friend spoke to me in the same vein, well, we've known each other since childhood. For him, any initiative of the Ukrop: everything is lost.

              What is called a "mark" for the Bridge, etc. - this should be routine work to knock out enemy infrastructure. And yes - if the mattresses go on a global attack, they will try to knock out all the silos and carriers - they have enough missiles for this, carriers too. How feasible all this is an open question. How all these UAV flights to Engels would not be a trial run. What were the conclusions from these flights? - to cover the planes with tires and draw pictures of planes in parking lots - can you imagine the level of intelligence of those making decisions?

What does the answer for the bridge have to do with it, just a second, there are two bridges, a railway and a car bridge, I have driven on it many times, they are not connected. As for knocking out infrastructure, we are not the Middle East and it is not so easy to do this. I think those at the top know about the priorities and are simply bleeding us dry, and the raid on Belgorod is despair, even, rather, hysteria. Such bad thoughts did not occur to them before.

Are you sure that we are guaranteed to be able to see the aircraft that will go to the launch lines, at extremely low altitudes from Finland, Japan, Latvia, Estonia, Norway, from the Baltic, the Arctic Ocean, etc.? Are you sure that we have full radar coverage from all the named and unnamed directions, including modern means of monitoring low altitudes?

Everything is mixed up, from the departure of aircraft to the exit of ships from harbors. And a strike with a conventional warhead on a silo-based area will only bring the enemy a retaliatory strike with missiles with special warheads on his country. And your persistence in obtaining information suggests certain thoughts that some specially trained people would not mind talking tete-a-tete, asking some questions.

        And our missiles can also fly anywhere, for example, to hit the USA via Antarctica. As for the impotence of air defense, as a resident of a frontline region, I will say that you are lying. I hear and see the work of our air defense and, if something flies in, then it will definitely fly in to the boxing champion in the ring too.

        Meanwhile, we have moved from a strategy of destruction, as we initially thought they would do there, by the way, there were grounds. to a strategy of attrition, and we are not the ones talking about a nuclear strike. Exactly one thing follows from this There is hysteria in the West.

          The fact that our air defense is localized, probably no one will argue - that is why in the Voronezh region NOW there is a "fire with detonation due to a drone crash", that is why it flies to Engels, Kazan, etc.
          And yes - "we have such missiles, but we won't show them to you" - I don't really believe it anymore.

            Well, they have the same thing, the ABM Treaty was signed for a reason. The bigger problem here is that we don't have our own proxies, so that the Mexicans, for example, could start making trouble, or blacks inside the country. They will still get a response, which they know very well, maybe not as powerfully, but it will hardly seem small. And I'm not talking about the bombing of a volcano that some people dream about. Just one hit on a large city would already be a catastrophe, and there will be more than one.

        The article says it will take them two hours to fly. They definitely won't be noticed by anyone or anything and will destroy if not all, then most of our nuclear missiles? It's just that the takeoff takes five minutes, maybe even faster. Otherwise, we might have to deal with damage from the 50% or 80% that broke through.

          2,5 hours, this is the flight time of the Tomahawk at its greatest range of 2500 km, and this range is most likely for Tomahawks with a nuclear warhead. The rest fly closer and have less time. And if huge slow-moving drones fly deep into our territory, which are based on civilian aircraft, moving over our territory for several hours, and no one notices them - then what are we talking about?

                Are you serious? Why are you arguing with such knowledge? The Earth's magnetic field doesn't give a damn about the Arctic or the Gobi Desert, it (thank God) is everywhere. There are magnetic field maps with all the anomalies. Massive objects made of conductive materials create disturbances in the Earth's natural magnetic field. Rotating propellers do this the most. Patrol planes are equipped with sensitive sensors that detect deviations from natural values. As soon as such a deviation is detected, the plane starts circling in a square and if the anomaly moves, it calculates the speed and course - then the data is transmitted to whoever needs it, and the boat doesn't even give a damn that they were detected.

            Of course, Yaropolk was hasty about a hundred submarines, but you are also very wrong. Russia has more than 70 submarines (different sources write differently: from 72 to 78). In conditions of military danger, only those that cannot go to sea for technical reasons will remain at the berths. There are far more than 1-2 on patrol routes in peacetime, as you claim.

      Most likely, this is the case; if before a missile attack, they carry out sabotage against the supreme leadership, then it is more than likely that during the flight time, if they make a decision about a counter strike, it is not a fact that they will have time to implement it.

      There are less than 10 of them in Russia and only some of them will be on combat duty.

      And they will be able to destroy them by tracking them from the moment they set out to sea.

      The US alone has more than 60 multi-purpose nuclear submarines, hundreds of ships capable of detecting nuclear submarines, and swarms of anti-submarine aircraft and helicopters.

      The threat is serious and we need to think about it now.

        Ratmir, I basically agree with your conclusions. The only thing is that the boat does not necessarily have to go out to sea to fire missiles. It can do this right from the pier without diving, as long as there is a set of missiles on board. With a range of 8 thousand km or more, the targets will be achieved, as long as there is time to fire.
        Now that we have TTR (Bulava), it has become easier to keep them on board in readiness. than liquid-propelled missiles, which were usually unloaded into storage depots after combat service (autonomous missions). During my service on a missile submarine, combat service was even practiced without leaving the pier. I am not privy to the details of such options. But I suspect that in order to maintain readiness for a retaliatory strike, if a given submarine is not ready for a long covert voyage far from the base, and there is nothing to replace it with...

          Those boats that will be at the pier will be destroyed first, forget about them immediately.

          The enemy is also guaranteed to destroy our airfields with long-range and strategic aviation aircraft; not a single one of our Tu-22M, Tu-95 or Tu-160 will have time to take off.

          Those missiles located in silos will be destroyed by a salvo of high-precision cruise missiles from various carriers.

          If they strike first, we will lose most of our strategic nuclear forces.

          Probably, Yarsa mobile installations will remain, and that is on condition that they manage to leave the permanent deployment point and take up positions. But there will not be many of them and they will still have to break through the enemy missile defense.

          The only thing left will be tactical nuclear weapons on Iskanders and Kalibrs. But we won't be able to reach the US with them.

              The situation is what it is and it is not in our favor.

              We will fight and we need to change our approach to defense.

              We need to get out of the treaties that limit our capabilities. We need not 10 Boreys, but, for example, 30, so that 10 of them are on duty and they are ready to use nuclear weapons against the enemy.

              Ships are needed to ensure the safe exit of our submarines into operational space.

              We need to strengthen and develop air defense. We need not only mobile expensive air defense systems where everything is in one launcher, radar and crew, but also stationary ones like NATO ones where the crew is reliably hidden at the command post, and the radar and launcher are spread over a large area.
              The Pantsir-SMD-E concept is very correct for the defense of objects and areas; it should be extended to the TOR and BUK systems.

              We need to expand the capabilities of tactical aviation so that it can use long-range missiles like JASSM and strengthen the protection of airfields.

              For silo-based nuclear weapons, we can build a bunch of false/empty positions all over the country so that no space intelligence could figure out where we have a missile under an armored cover, and where there is just a mock-up of such a cover.

              Everything must be done so that the enemy has no confidence that his strike can be successful.

              In the meantime, things are not going well for us.

                Think broadly! Will we not strain our navels with such an arms race? After all, this is exactly what they are trying to seduce us into again, or even drive us into some kind of adventure, like they did with the Star Wars. Let's say we start churning out a couple dozen more "Boreys", and by the time we have made them, progress will have gone so far that these boats will lose their significance and invulnerability. The enemy will cover all the exit and patrol routes of our submarines with the new SOSUS system, launch a mass of unmanned underwater drones in these waters... And it will turn out that we will spend money, but there will be no effect. A couple of such drones will be trailing behind each of our submarines, ready to receive a signal to destroy them.
                About false positions and equipment mock-ups. All these false targets and mock-ups are very quickly studied from space and crossed out from the targets at the strategic level. Tactically, yes, this is how the Ukrainian Armed Forces saved their aviation at the beginning of the SVO and we were forced to hit false targets. And vice versa, we neglected this and, worse, did not protect our aviation with caponiers and decent security when saboteurs could mine helicopters near Pskov. This is beyond the pale...
                I admit that I still don’t understand the principle of the Poseidon. Why would it need an underwater carrier in the form of a special nuclear submarine? If it has an unlimited range, then why risk the submarine, which will most likely be discovered before it manages to launch the Poseidon… Why not make a dozen launchers in secluded bays along the coast, from where the Poseidon could be launched even across the ocean from Kamchatka or Taimyr? Let another ten such launchers stand empty, try to guess which of them is loaded. Here we need to know the principle of its preparation and launch, why a nuclear submarine is absolutely necessary.

                    Do you think that Sevmash has idle workshops and shipyards that could build twice as many Boreys? Probably not, which means we need to build additional factories and recruit qualified personnel... from where? There aren't enough of them even at the existing production facilities. That is, it won't happen quickly, it will take a decade.
                    We are assured that no war will begin without serious preparation by the enemy, who will conduct mobilization measures on a huge scale. And this will not go unnoticed by any intelligence service. Simple exercises and even then bring the opposing side to heightened readiness. An accidental, unintentional attack with strategic weapons is more terrible. But I believe that even an accidentally launched missile will not lead to a large-scale war; they will have time to warn through military channels and try to destroy it before the target.
                    If we assume that all stationary launchers will be destroyed at the beginning of the war, then all silo-based RVSN should have been closed long ago. But none of the opponents are doing this, which means they are counting on having time to shoot back while they are flying at them. Or are all the fools sitting there who don't understand anything about life?

                    So you think that it is easier to move a Poseidon carrier submarine secretly to the enemy's shores and fire at the enemy at the right time? There is only one such carrier so far, and there will be two (I hope). And these carriers will become the primary targets for destruction. They will be monitored more than any other submarine and it will be much more difficult for them to survive until the first launch of the Poseidon. And to cover each coastal installation of the Poseidons with missiles. Where can you whip up at least a hundred dummy models and simulate vigorous activity there periodically, bringing in a team of specialists... isn't it easier?

                  Start thinking for yourself!!!

                  We started our SVO with exercises and for the enemy, despite all NATO intelligence, it still came as a surprise. Because before the first shot, everyone thinks that there will never be a war.

                  So why would it be different in the opposite direction?

                  One Ohio submarine carries 154 Tomahawks with a range of 2500 km. Will we be able to detect it before it launches its missiles? No. And they have 4 such boats, and the Los Angeles submarine has 62 pieces and they also carry cruise missiles, and there are other submarines. And this is only the US submarine fleet. There are also ships and a missile defense system that is already installed along the perimeter of our country from Alaska and Japan to Europe and it can also launch Tomahawks.

                  A bunch of NATO countries around the perimeter of our country have tactical aviation, even their F-16 can launch cruise missiles at a range of more than 900 km.

                  It will also be possible to move and disperse equipment and infantry in Europe to our borders.

                  Before you know it, NATO will be near Moscow.

                  Wagner reached Moscow in almost a day and somehow it didn’t work out to stop them.

                  Now imagine the same thing, only tens of times larger - columns of Strikers and Bradleys under the cover of Hymars, Apaches and F-35s, and all this after they hit our airfields, naval bases and missile silos with thousands of cruise missiles.

                  You say it's impossible?! Then why do they all lead to this?

    At least 2 Hercules carriers with tomahawks and JASSM with non-nuclear charges, as the GB "scientists" write, will have to move to their initial positions near our borders. And this is a signal from the Russian Strategic Missile Forces for a retaliatory nuclear strike. And it will arrive before the cruise missiles from the Hercules reach our launchers. And it is not a fact that even a regular 3-ton charge will break the concrete protection of the launch silos. In general, the "British scientists" are fantasizing.

The Americans defeated the DPRK, Cuba (Vietnam, Afghanistan) with Tomahawks, now the only small thing left is to knock down "Rashka" with its nuclear triad, with silos, SSBNs, mobile complexes, hypersonic weapons, the largest reserves of tactical nuclear weapons in the world, etc. With Tomahawks!!!

    Those boats that will be at the pier will be destroyed first, forget about them immediately.

    The enemy is also guaranteed to destroy our airfields with long-range and strategic aviation aircraft; not a single one of our Tu-22M, Tu-95 or Tu-160 will have time to take off.

    Those missiles located in silos will be destroyed by a salvo of high-precision cruise missiles from various carriers.

    If they strike first, we will lose most of our strategic nuclear forces.

    Probably, Yarsa mobile installations will remain, and that is on condition that they manage to leave the permanent deployment point and take up positions. But there will not be many of them and they will still have to break through the enemy missile defense.

    The only thing left will be tactical nuclear weapons on Iskanders and Kalibrs. But we won't be able to reach the US with them.


    Tales of the Vienna Woods.
    Boats moored at the pier will be hit before anything reaches them.
    In case of aggravation of the situation (war never starts suddenly), part of the strategic aviation will be on combat duty in the air. The fact of the beginning of the enemy missile attack will be detected by the early warning system, after which the necessary protocol will be launched.

    Cruise missiles need several hours to reach their targets, by which time our missiles and warheads will carry out a counter-attack. Strategic facilities are covered by air defense positions, so it is not a fact that the enemy's cruise missiles will reach them.

    The effectiveness of enemy missile defense systems has never been tested in real combat conditions, so you shouldn’t rely on them.

    There is no chance of victory for the Yankees in a large-scale conflict with the Russian Federation; these are all empty fears.
    In 1999, the Yankees used more than 2 cruise missiles against Yugoslavia, but even that was not enough to destroy even half of the industrial and military potential of such a small country.
