Just this week, Russia conducted*a successful test*of the new submarine-launched Bulava intercontinental nuclear missile…
Russia carried out a successful test of its new Bulava intercontinental nuclear missile on Wednesday and will perform two more test launches in October and November, the head of its naval forces said.
The armed forces have boosted their military*training*and test drills since the start of the conflict in eastern Ukraine, which Russia considers in its traditional sphere of influence.
The 12-meter long Bulava, or mace, has undergone numerous tests, some successful, and can deliver an impact of up to 100 times the atomic blast that devastated Hiroshima in 1945.
Each one of these missiles weighs more than 36 tons and has a range of more than 5,000 miles.
But in a future conflict, they would likely only have to travel a short distance.
That is because Russia has developed super silent attacks subs that are*virtually undetectable*when submerged.
In a*previous article, I talked about how the U.S. Navy refers to these virtually undetectable subs as “black holes”…
Did you know that Russia is building submarines that are so quiet that the U.S. military cannot detect them?* These “black hole” submarines can freely approach the coastlines of*the United*States without fear of being detected whenever they want.* In fact, a “nuclear-powered attack submarine armed with long-range cruise missiles” sailed around in the Gulf of Mexico*for several weeks*without being detected back in 2012.* And now Russia is launching a new class of subs that have “advanced stealth technology”.* The U.S. Navy openly acknowledges that they cannot track these subs when they are submerged.* That means that the Russians are able to sail right up to our coastlines and launch nukes whenever they want.
Most Americans don’t realize this, but Russian subs can come cruising right up to our coasts without us knowing about it and launch missiles which will start hitting our*cities*within just a few minutes.
And if you do not think that this can ever happen, perhaps you should consider what a Russian general said about a preemptive nuclear strike*just the other day…
A*Russian general has called for*Russia to*revamp its military doctrine, last updated in*2010, to*clearly identify the*U.S. and*its NATO allies as Moscow’s enemy*number one*and*spell out the*conditions under which Russia would launch a*preemptive nuclear strike against the*28-member military alliance, Interfax reported Wednesday.
Russia’s military doctrine, a*strategy*document*through which the*government interprets military threats and*crafts possible responses, is being revised in*light of*threats connected to*the Arab Spring, the Syrian civil war and*the conflict in*Ukraine, the*deputy chief of*the Kremlin’s security council told RIA Novosti on*Tuesday.
Meanwhile, the Obama administration has discussed reducing the size of our already neutered strategic nuclear arsenal down*to just 300 warheads.
Let us hope and pray that we never see a*nuclear war*between*the United*States and Russia.
Because if one does happen, there is a very strong possibility that America will not be the winner.
Does it scare anyone else that Russia can send Subs right to our shores that are capable of nuking us and we wont know till the nukes are hitting?
Reminds me of World War II use of subs early on
