hotwax: Are you high on something? For God's sake, where in my comment did I mentioned Russia being a muslim country, or any possibility of any religious war brewing for that matter? Incase, you didnt read it (which Im sure you didnt, I have attached it below. Maple: You seem to be a novice of history and international politics, so take this from me; I am not writing to debate with you, because I cant debate with you. On issues like this,I only debate with my equals, as for every other person, I teach. So, I'll educate u a bit: First of all, the US has already installed Patriot defence missiles in countries bordering Russia (Poland, Turkey, Czech etc), and they are now in operation. Its part of what motivated Russia to lift the ban on the sale of Iskander to US enemies. In our contemporary world, religion has no significance in the formation of geopolitical/military alliances. Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE are muslim countries, yet they are US biggest allies. Russia supplies arms to Syria, Iran and Nkorea, yet these are no orthodox christian countries. When the Soviet Russia armed Egypt during its fight against Israel during the Yom-Kippur war, was Egypt not a muslim country? When Russia supplied arms to the Vietcongs to defeat the US in Vietnam, where the Vietnamese orthodox christains then? The same muslims US is fighting in Afghanistan, US used to be their ally during the Soviet- Afghan war. Dude alliances are formed based on geopolitical and economic interests, not religion. And yes, Russia would go to war with US should US threaten its interest abroad, be they in muslim, buddhist or Animist country. Ever heard of the phrase, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend"? BTW, its a wanton display of ignorance, to say that Russian technology is unreliable. If Russia technology is not reliable, why is the US and Israel lobbying Russia not to sale sophisticated arms to countries like Iran, Nkorea, Venezuela, Syria, China etc? For instance, US and Israel lobbied so hard in Russia, just to discourage Russia from selling to Iran, one of the most sophisticated surface to air system in the world, the S-300...the Kornets anti-tank missiles which Hezbollah used to decimate Israeli Merkava Tanks in 2006, whose technology did you think it was? Till today, US and Israel never forgave Russia for selling them to Syria and Iran (who gave them to Hezbollah). Iran used Russian ground-based radar jamming and deception system (The Avtobaza) to capture US's most sophisticated spy drone, the RQ-170, how 'unreliable' was that to you? Russia is a decade ahead of the US in terms of missile technology. Russia has missile technology for which the US and the west has no answer for, and the Iskander Missile is just one among many. |

some body said that the speed of that russian missle is hypersonic ,that it cannot be intercepted.i doubt if the guy is a science student at all or is he just ignorant.brother interception is not 100meter race.it is like if usain bolt(russian missile) is running nd u want to intercept him,u dnt follow him from the back so that both of u will be measureing speed,rather u check the speed ,the track eg lng nd lat,then u corner him on his way.u dnt pursue him to match speed rather u corner him.when a missile is fired satelite useing gprs or tracker tracks it speed,direction.they will then know that no mater its speed that it must pass a particuler place on getting to its target ,then they will fire their on to go nd meet it on a spot along the target way.even if their own is nt as fast as your own ,since u must go tru a particuler root ,it is very easy to wait for u along the line. |

Skankezzy: Cough Cough, its seems Im not the only one being 'deceived' by war films, nor unwilling to give myself a rest. BTW, who tell you say war tech na track&field,or football for that matter ? Anyways, there's no defense system with a hypersonic speed (Mach 6-7)capability in existence as we speak, and thats a fact. Please if you know of any in existence, please objective-minded readers would be glad to know. We need facts, not theoretical speculations. You obviously yarning opata, and do not know much about how defense systems work. A defense missile has to race towards its target while it tracks it at thesame time. At hypersonic speed, such feat is not possible, as of now. May be this can happen in the future, but as we speak, that remains an impossibility, and thats what matters. Well, let me educate you on the difference between fact and speculation. Fact is something thats been practically proven. Speculation, on the other hand, is mere conjecture, passing opinion as fact. For instance, No human being has stepped foot on planet Mars, that's a fact. To say human beings can go to Mars, that remained to be proven, hence we call that SPECULATION. You get the difference now buddy? This is what the Israeli news media (debka file) has to say about the Iskander missile, and its recent deployment in Syria; pay a close attention @ 1:20mins of the video to save urself time: [flash=580,520] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRTqulvVcXI[/flash] |
