Alleged Nuclear Posture Review Recognizes Russia's Superiority Over US by Elpacino481(m): 9:56am On Jan 23, 2018 |
The Pentagon has said that the published document is just one of several drafts being prepared and the final version of the doctrine will be reviewed and approved by the president and the defense secretary. Russia has advantages over the United States and its allies in the production of nuclear weapons, the unclassified part of the 2018 Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) obtained by Huffington Post reads. "Russia possesses significant advantages in its nuclear weapons production capacity and non-strategic nuclear forces over the US and its allies," the document says. According to the review, Russia is building a "large, diverse, and modern set of non-strategic systems" that may be armed with nuclear or conventional weapons. The document states that these systems are not accountable under the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (New START). The document also says that Russia is developing and deploying new nuclear warheads and launchers, which include "multiple upgrades" of strategic bombers, sea-based missiles and land-based missiles. "Russia is also developing at least two new intercontinental range systems, a hypersonic glide vehicle, and a new intercontinental, nuclear-armed, undersea autonomous torpedo," the review says. According to the document, despite its criticism of US missile defense , Russia is also modernizing its long-standing nuclear-armed ballistic missile defense system and developing a new ballistic missile defense interceptor. The Huffington Post said that the disclosed document is a pre-decisional draft of the 2018 NPR. Commenting on the publication, the Pentagon did not deny the authenticity of the draft, but said several drafts have been written. "However, the Nuclear Posture Review has not been completed and will ultimately be reviewed and approved by the President and the Secretary of Defense. As a general practice, we do not discuss pre-decisional, draft copies of strategies and reviews," the statement read. In addition to Russia’s nuclear capabilities, the draft also mentions China, North Korea and Iran as the main challenges for Washington. The review also calls for modernizing the US nuclear triad, including the development of low-yield weapons that will "enhance deterrence."

US always looking for the way to just increase her military budget. Even when Russia was down then and that useless Boris Yeltsin was in sit, was still mentioning Russia. They all thought Russia, will never be back. Russia is back, so US and her NATO can suck it. US should take care of her citizens carrying cancers up and down. A country of just 300 Years vs a country of over 2000 years old. 3 Likes 1 Share |
