It's got f**k all to do with nuclear missile silos and only vaguely comparable to '62. This is about Russia having freedom to carry on as they want in Europe, not really about nuclear weapons. A compliant Ukraine acts as a nice killing field between them and Europe in the event of a war and gives them a strong presence in the Med via the Black Sea. It also of course really pumps up nationalist morale at home, which a tyrant always needs. Why is he a tyrant? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Been together 15 years, married for 8. Yet he can't get her a visa to come and live in Britain, even though the own a house there and one here and they both run businesses. And so he's in Kiev, wondering how to protect his family, while Britain is flooded with 3rd World parasites.

NEWKID 26,210 Posted February 24, 2022 Report Share Posted February 24, 2022 One thing you got to agree with, Putin don't give a f**k...right or wrong he just acts...

Strategic weapons are for wiping out cities, infrastructure, civilians. They're intended to utterly destroy your enemy and their civilisation. No civilisation, no enemy. Tactical weapons are lower yield and designed to strike mainly military targets, hence they are often referred to as battlefield weapons. When the Soviets got short and medium range ballistic missiles (strategic weapons) into Cuba, it meant that they could strike the US much more effectively than they could with their homeland strategic weapons. These weapons were intended to be part of an annihilation strike scenario where both sides went all out to destroy the other. Before that the US pretty much had the edge. It balanced the playing field which scared the shit out of everyone until both sides acclimatised to the new normal and found acceptable solutions. The US nukes deployed in Europe now are mostly or entirely deployed in western Europe and are designed to be dropped by fighter jets and have much lower yields than strategic nukes. They are intended to wipe out divisions of enemy armour and troops in a terrible WWIII invasion scenario, but have limited capability as a strategic weapon ie to wipe out Russia as a civilisation. The US and Russia have ICBM silos at home, submarines and strategic bombers for that these days. The battlefield nukes would be saved for the battlefield. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The implication was nuclear missile silos, given it was nukes deployed to Cuba in '62 that was the factor, not ballistic missile defences. In fact, the only type of missile silo is nuclear.
