no,they are the real monsters.
Why are they always thinking of war?
They are a plague,do you realize they were wicked enough to carry out the test over the Philippines,why didn't they test it over American airspace?
Because of the fallouts.


Read properly, the test wasn't over any country's airspace but far away in space beyond the reach and effect on anyone. An ICBM is made to projectile through space and the interceptor destroyed it up there. That's the new phase of warfare.

stop being silly,in a jungle warfare, USA military are nothing,take them to Vietnam,they will lose,take them to Mogadishu,they will lose,if it is to use uav to attack targets,I will give it to them.
But don't try Africans in jungle warfare



That the USA found it difficult in the jungles of Vietnam doesn't mean they can't do well in the jungle. For your info, the USA has spent a lot in training their personnels to adapt to different tarrains since that Vietnam incident, u can go and research on this. The same training made the USA squash Saddam's Republican guard army in their own desert, during the gulf war years after the Vietnam incident. Despite the frequent sand storms and heat they faced, the US army made it their day.

Story, how many will this system intercept, if multiple are fired from multiple sites. America always wasting money on fruitless things.



Well that's why they launched a new branch of military called the Space Force for space fights, because they plan on launching atleast 2,400 missile interceptor sattelites in space before 2030.

the Sandy desert is different from the jungles of Africa or Vietnam,you want to enter into Borneo or Amazon?
During operation desert Storm,it was an open confrontation with choppers and fighters fully involved,those machines are of little effect in the jungle

the question is will it work in a war scenerio very unlikely too many factors in place.
them to like to waste money.


American weapons have never been known to fail during real life war scenarios, not like the way Russian equipments failed the Iraqis who used them during the gulf war.

Like I said, they have been spending a lot on training in different tarrains including amazon jungles not even the ordinary ones of Africa. Ever wondered how their special forces are able to rescue hostages from thick jungles so far?? They aren't stupid, they have noticed their flaws and worked on it. And that's what any country that wants to stay relevant should do


Moreover don't ever underestimate the terrors of any Arabic desert. Her natural forces are very callous and consuming.

Russia remains the best in rocket technology.

Only rocket technology, but are far behind in applied rocketry. Even the UK beats them in that. I once again lay this emphasis. Is there anything that Russia excels in that is not military or confrontational....nothing. Their anointing is for war and war alone.

when people say America lost Vietnam war , I will always laugh at them , if u know what one bomb can do , then dropping more than 1000 bombs every day, the people u are bombing doesn't even have d capacity to bomb back yet refused to surrender ,America pulled out of those wars because of public outcry and humanitarian issues, they will not wipe out a country because there leaders are stubborn

This means USA is really preparing for war with china, ICBM is the major china's strategic deterrent against the USA. They have it in abundance in their stockpiles, even nuclear powered ones. So if USA can develop capability to shoot down ICBM from the sky, that is a major blow to China because Chinese rely on these special missiles to counter USA's seemingly superior navy which boasts of almost 20 aircraft carriers, China has just two as of yet. USA military presence in indo-pacific means they can use the location of one of their allies in Asia as a launchpad against China, but china doesn't have such strategic presence in north america

However, it is all out to see how many anti missile radars USA will be able to install in order to prevent China's missiles from reaching the USA's mainland.

gravity must take its course,there must be radioactive fallouts,so they decided to go far away from home,to the Pacific,that's how they messed up the bikini islands.
What is the obsession with USA and war toys?
They are a plague to human existence

Radioactive fallouts u say, in space?? My guy no naa.. No gravity in space. And any debris is space remains there as a space junk.


Mind u, the same USA prevented Russia from recolonising the whole of Europe during the days of Dmitri Gobarachev as their Prime Minister. Ever wondered why the Russians formed a colony called the USSR?? They just wanted to rule Europe by force and the US splitted the Soviet Union. I know the US may be a bully sometimes, but their presence in world politics has saved a lot of countries from other tyrant nations.(Eg South Korea being safe from North Korea because of the US presence in the Pacific)

simple, by winning the economic war. China having been seizing most of the raw materials in Africa and south America for some time now. later they control the very raw materials needed for most technological development.

That’s serving you a notice

Sorry, China shot a satellite in space from ground earth more than 2 years ago. Do you think their defence system will not take care of Inter Continental Ballistic missile?

I forgot that the debris will remain in space since gravity is zero or non existent in space.
But the truth is that USA creates artificial problems,then give you their own exploitative solution.
Example is when you bomb Japan in ww2,occupy Japan till date,then sign defence pact with Japan to protect Japan from north Korea when it is USA that made Japan defenceless.
Create instability in the middleeast sponsoring terrorists and thus scaring Saudi Arabia into signing treaty with USA.
Create Boko Haram in 2003,then Nigeria must buy weapons from USA to fight something USA created.
They need Kim alive to always keep South Korea and Japan loyal.

Who shot the ballistic missile to space in the first place

Any ICBM that is launched will go into space first before re-entering the atmosphere to hit its target. So what the US missile did was to shoot it down in space before re-entering the atmosphere to hit its target.
