The Russian Defense Ministry suspected the United States in the use of medium-range and shorter-range missiles during missile defense tests

60
In the main defense department of the country, they stated that under the guise of testing missile defense systems, the United States is working on the use of missiles, the use of which is prohibited by international agreements. We are talking about medium and shorter-range missiles. Interfax cites a statement by the Deputy Head of the Directorate of International Military Cooperation of the Russian Ministry of Defense Yevgeny Ilyin:

Many questions arise in connection with the use of the United States in testing missile defense targets that are similar in characteristics with medium and shorter-range missiles. There is reason to believe that, under the guise of testing US missile defense systems, questions are being worked out on the use of medium-range and shorter-range missiles prohibited by the treaty (INF).


It should be noted that today the upper house of the Russian parliament is holding discussions on issues related to the letter of international agreements on disarmament issues. It is noted that in recent times a lot of problems have accumulated associated with the topic of trust in relation to the United States. By their actions to deploy missile defense elements in Eastern Europe, the States are clearly trying to break the nuclear parity, which, for obvious reasons, can lead to threatening consequences for the whole world. At the same time, Washington continues to create missile defense segments, making ridiculous statements that such activities are "not directed against Russia."

The Russian Defense Ministry suspected the United States in the use of medium-range and shorter-range missiles during missile defense tests


The Treaty on the Elimination of Medium and Short Range Missiles was signed on December 8 1987. The agreement was signed by Mikhail Gorbachev and Ronald Reagan. The agreement entered into force on 1 June 1988 of the year.

      Once there are none, they don’t give a damn when they need to poke their probable opponent into the treaty. But they themselves, of course, wanted to spit on their obligations under the treaties.
      In no case should you believe them! Moreover, it is necessary to act in a proactive manner. What our people are doing today, I hope with success.

      This is the whole deep meaning of the Americans' "concern" ... They keep talking about the parity between the Russian Federation and the United States ...

      What parity can there be when the US allies in NATO have their own nuclear weapons and their OTR-INF ...

    The only way out is to openly demonstrate weapons capable of removing from orbit (jamming or incapacitating) - any satellites both at low and at high geostations. Without a satellite constellation - pindos are surrendered, they won’t want to fight like in the Second World War.
    If I’m not mistaken, in the Soviet era we tested some kind of radio device (a bit of a cyclopean meter) for telemetry recording and tracking satellites by the reflected signal. At a power of about 7% when tracking the Pindo satellite, they burned his electronics to hell, and they lost control of the satellite, which, by the way, was new and secret.
    Technology needs to be revived and used in full fashion laughing

    Since the Americans are already rolling a barrel at us about violating the INF Treaty, don’t go to the grandmother and violate it yourself.

    How to rob a neighbor in a gardening partnership. To accuse him of "eating eggs incorrectly" (no matter what, the shape of the nose is not the same, he sleeps on the wrong side), and to explain to all other gardeners that this feature is absolutely terrible, reduces the yield of apples in the whole partnership, and strawberries are sour .. At the same time, to strengthen the effect, slowly sprinkle the neighbors with pesticides and throw hornets' nests over the fence.
    This was my allegory. Matrasia sensed that she was being circumvented at a bend, and launched her elbows, knees, and other forbidden methods of struggle. Why be surprised. In the mentality of the striatum, there is no place other than the first.

    I suppose, just like that, ours will not come out of the INF Treaty until there is a trump card.

    A trump card is already on the way S-500.
    As they launch the troops into production and saturate them with troops, one can confidently leave the INF.
    S-500 is essentially our missile defense, but unlike the missile defense, it’s mobile and I think it will be more reliable in interception.

    In principle, the S-400 is already intercepting short-range missiles, but these complexes are few, and in my opinion it does not intercept medium and long range.

    "There is reason to believe that under the guise of testing the US missile defense system, questions are being worked out on the use of medium- and shorter-range missiles prohibited by the treaty (INF)"...

    Naturally ... But what else could be expected?

    Both old and newly developed OTP-class rockets and similar ones are used as targets ...

    Training is underway both on the use of missile defense missiles and on the withdrawal from them of the RSMD missiles ... And also, most importantly, actions are being worked out to destroy exactly our missiles of this class ...

    It is useless to make noise and talk more talkatively ... Well, supposedly the whole world illuminated their actions ... But they don’t give a damn about the opinion of this world ...

    So a long time ago, without unnecessary noise, develop and develop their own INF, naturally, with the equipment of nuclear warheads, that is, first of all, to make the main "gift" for Europe - tactical nuclear weapons ...

    Well, the Poles, in the madness of their Russophobia, may not even think ... But Germany and Turkey will fall under the distribution in the first place ... There is no need to store Amer nuclear weapons on its territory ...

    Technology needs to be revived and used in full fashion laughing

    Ways to neutralize satellites:
    1. Even in the Union, the development of a satellite interception system began, which was based on the MiG-31D fighter-interceptor, which was equipped with the 79M6 Kontakt anti-satellite missile. This program is currently resumed.
    2. There is another relatively simple and very effective way to combat satellites - raising warheads with a capacity of about 200 megaton to a height of 250-1 km. After the explosion of this warhead, all satellites in a certain radius of destruction will simply "die out", this will happen all in seconds.
    3. Any satellite is easy enough to shoot down with strike weapons: a conventional blank or a cloud of steel shot, which simply perforates the satellite’s vital systems, primarily solar panels.
    4. There are various systems of electronic suppression when all microcircuits can burn from the pulse of an electromagnetic bomb.

    Well, quieter. The Russian Federation has missiles "Granat" and "Caliber" nuclear and non-nuclear versions with a range of 2500 to 3000 km. They are sea-based. But a meter-shortened version of these 9M728 missiles is launched from the Iskander launcher. So why tear the vests? The RIAC is of concern to the Shtatovs solely from the point of view of not pulling the nerves of Europeans. And they and we observe it formally. In real life, the "Caliber-K" complex with a launch from a container also violates the INF Treaty.

      The range of the GBI missile defense is 1 thousand km. As a warhead, the missile is equipped with an atmospheric interceptor. It is possible to equip nuclear warhead missiles which, at present, are at the testing stage. In this version of combat equipment, a missile system can be used to deliver lightning-fast point strikes against protected ground and underground targets.

    with a flight time of 5-10 minutes to St. Petersburg and Moscow from Romania and Poland

    It will be cool if they guess to put it in the Baltic. Then time will go by almost a second! They squeeze us beyond the Urals and this is a fact!

      Not so simple. The launch of missiles from the Baltic states will be credited almost immediately. Here, the time of the retaliatory strike on the launcher is noticeably reduced. Whether the best and most exclusive missiles of this kind will be trusted by footmen, and in such a situation they won’t be able to take their fat asses away.
      In general, it would be nice for Sprotland and similar territories to develop missiles for the Smerch missile launcher with tactical nuclear warheads and an increased range.

    Yeah ... How much further, then ... I generally think that in our leadership there are either outspoken pro-Westerners, or complete amateurs or just cowards who are afraid to tell the states and their henchmen the truth in their eyes and are only capable of streamlined formulations like "we believe, we suspect, etc." ... Eh! Stalin is not on them ... sad

    A strange treaty on the INF Treaty was signed by Gorbach horseradish. All NATO members, including the geyropa, retain medium- and shorter-range missiles, and only Russia, while partially on the geyropei continent, should not have such missiles. And the United States did not comply with this treaty from the very beginning, like other treaties, in particular on the reduction of the same nuclear weapons. If Russia dismantled nuclear warheads and eliminated them, the United States simply stored the warheads, but didn’t destroy them. We just need to abandon them if our War Department suspected the United States of using banned missiles.

      But we must admit that Gorbachev also removed the US nuclear ballistic missiles from Europe by the INF Treaty.

    The Russian Defense Ministry suspected the United States in the use of medium-range and shorter-range missiles during missile defense tests
    Of course, everything is so. And no one ever doubted WHY the last night stirs up water around their missile defense systems for so long.

    I didn’t understand when France and England have this INF "medium-range missiles in large quantities, for these NATO members this treaty is a side" so what is the point for us to observe it?

    The contract was between USSR and USA. What side is France, England, or rather, sideways, as you say? Yes and no they have medium-range missiles. Previously, at least France had as many as 18 pieces (a large number), so now they are not.

    When the Buran was launched, a satellite with a combat laser was also launched, but it did not go into orbit.

    Don't write nonsense. Not when the Buran was launched, but earlier, when Energia was first launched. And there was no "combat laser" on this satellite. It was a demonstrator and nothing more. It was planned to equip this product with a laser only at 4 or 5 launches.

    "... read out the entire list, pzhalsta ..." (c). Where did you see these rockets? Especially medium range. Do not share data on the number, locations, names of these missiles ???

    Quote: Amurets
    << Many questions arise in connection with the use of the United States in missile defense tests of target missiles similar in characteristics to intermediate and shorter-range missiles. There is reason to believe that under the guise of testing US missile defense systems, the issues of using medium and shorter-range missiles prohibited by the INF Treaty are being worked out. >>
    Since the Americans are already rolling a barrel at us about violating the INF Treaty, don’t go to the grandmother and violate it yourself. And the missile defense is not being developed on the Strategic Missile Forces, but on the INF Treaty. This can be determined by the targets used in the tests.

    Kolya! Put a note (this is not an article) bold minus. Not even the note itself, there is nothing interesting there, but the title.
    The Ministry of Defense suspected ... Damn, what suspicious ones ... And the MO suspected, or once again zhurnalyugi annealed?

    Thirty years ago they themselves allowed them to do this, but now they have suspected and amicably starting to blame. In what? That they created these missiles STRONGLY Fulfilling the INF Treaty ???

    It is high time to withdraw from this treaty. He was beneficial earlier, now he only binds our hands and unties them.
    And to add a point to our defense strategy - in the event of the outbreak of hostilities with any NATO country, a retaliatory strike will be dealt to all strategic facilities in the territories of all NATO countries, especially the United States, with any weapons.
    And let it scratch turnips

    They are just waiting for this. In a couple of months, their border will be at their borders. And what are we in return? Will we suck the paw or write angry articles in the media?

    The fact that we dismantled the warheads is a fact. But who told you that these charges (physical units) were eliminated, not stored or used in other systems. Yes, and they have not stockpiled these charges. All used.

    Finally, they saw the light)) This is not a missile defense! These Americans are not so stupid to put 10 missile defense missile launchers in Europe. This is the purest weapon of the first strike. High-speed missiles designed to destroy command centers with a flight time of 5-10 minutes to St. Petersburg and Moscow from Romania and Poland

    Do you think you have seen? MO? Or is this another media outlet.
    In addition, no one was planning to deploy 10 launchers in Poland and Romania. 24 and not one less. True, how are they going to place (sorry, in your words) high-speed missiles - the authors of such articles probably know this, and perhaps you too. How can I place a rocket 7-8 meters long and 11-16 meters long in a launch pad with a diameter of just over half a meter and a length of 1,3-1,6 meters - I personally do not know ...

    Just the INF Treaty, especially everything related to its violation - this is Klondike for those who are PR. And no matter whether the former military or politicians. Moreover, these violations and missile defense are all purely for domestic consumption, the main task of which is to try to scare the average person ...
