Blakjewelry:And you're still not getting the picture. If the Burevestnik was launched before the nuclear war then all those who somehow managed to survive the nuclear strikes like POTUS and top military brass would get hit again. They might wait decades in their underground bunkers but the Burevestnik can wait even longer š |

Yesterday, the UNGA overwhelmingly voted for the US to lift its embargo on Cuba. Since 1992, the UNGA has voted the same way every year, bar 2020. The embargo Israel has on Gaza is similar to the embargo the US has had on Cuba for decades. The justifications for multipolarity are innumerable. -Lord |

WriteerNg:It is going to fly forever? Though nuclear reaction can sustain for a long time with small amount of material compared to chemical reaction, I believe the container and other factors can't hold for so long. The only good thing I see there is extended flight time but I doubt if it can fly for days. Then again the tech is not entirely new as the US first tested theirs in the 50s but had to pull the plug as it flight can contaminate the environment. |

Blakjewelry:It can fly for months, if not years. We've had the ISS up there for decades. Neither the US nor the Soviet Union could have fielded the technology in the 50s. Technology progresses. Just because it caused contamination in the 1950s, does not mean it would do so today. And just because the US failed at it does not mean no one else will succeed at it. Were there smartphones in the 50s? -Lord |

Blakjewelry:Scientists made something and a Public University Graduate from Nigeria (that is if you are a graduate sef) says he highly doubt it and even went ahead to say the US first tested it but didnt make it operational because of safety reasons lol ![]() Okay now you must post proves that US first tested the Burevetnisk Missile.

ā”Trump: I was extremely honored by the fact that President Xi authorized China to begin the purchase of massive amounts of Soybeans, Sorghum, and other Farm products. Our Farmers will be very happy! Additionally, China has agreed to continue the flow of Rare Earth, Critical Minerals, Magnets, etc., openly and freely. Very significantly, China has strongly stated that they will work diligently with us to stop the flow of Fentanyl into our Country. They will help us end the Fentanyl Crisis. China also agreed that they will begin the process of purchasing American Energy. In fact, a very large scale transaction may take place concerning the purchase of Oil and Gas from the Great State of Alaska.

LordAdam16:Do your research on project pluto. The iss is in space and experience weightlessness, it experience drag and reduce it height so it has to be readjusted occasionally using thrusters to reposition once in a while. And nope it can't fly for days, it's ramjet base tech using nuclear power. I think information from the Russians says it has a 14k kilometers and 15hrs flight time, which is something experts in field agrees, it is pegged at 10k to 20k range. |

Uprightness100:I still don't understand how religion has been able to do more damage to the blackman than any other race. Yes some will argue even white had their own dark age but I believe we can avoid it by learning from history. I watch a video on the Liberia and Sierra Leone war and a former Cia chief was ask if the conflict in Africa where to be in among the white race whether it will be allowed to continue, his answer was no. Africa do not produce large scale arm but look at the various conflict in Africa you will weapons from America, Italy, France and Russia in the hand of various groups. These countries produces large quantities of ammunition and the ones driving conflicts so as to sell their arm, and because of our own selfishness, greed and idiocy, there are no short of people to be use as tools. |

FXtrader2025:The same US built nuclear weapons. They built nuclear powered ships and submarines. But once it turned to building conventional missiles powered by nuclear power, they decided not to because āitās not safe.ā How does that make sense? Safety was never an issue when they could do it. But once they cannot do it, safety becomes their go-to excuse. The amount of excuses the NVBs will make whenever Russia has the upper hand over the United States is always amusing. |

Blakjewelry:Stick to topics you have competence in. The 14k km, 15h figures are the test parameters. Not the max limit. The Earth's equatorial circumference is 40km. The Burevestnik will circumnavigate the planet once every 48 hours. To put this in perspective, the longest range cruise missile the US has EVER deployed is the AGM-129A ACM. It's pegged range was 3.2k km. Clearly, you can see why the nuclear propulsion in the Burevestnik is a game changer. No cruise missile with non-nuclear propulsion can do those numbers because of physical constraints. It will fly for months easily. The ISS has thrusters. The Burevestnik has a miniature nuclear reactor. It seems you do not know the meaning of the words you type. I used the analogy of the ISS for a reason. But you can also use airplanes. They need major overhauls every few years and they have magnitude more internal components than a cruise missile. Much of it has to do with taking off, navigating, and landing hundreds of times. If a plane only has to take off once, never need tires, never care about cabin pressure, and has nuclear propulsion; does your intuition tell you that it'll only be able to stay airborne for 15 hours? Why are you exposing your incapacity to engage in inductive and abductive reasoning. Project Pluto is from 60 years ago, when semiconductor tech was still in the micrometer range. No one could miniaturize a nuclear reactor that'd fit in a cruise missile and be reliable 60 years ago. Stop smashing your keyboard because you feel you have to say something. You're just typing easily dispelled nonsense. So if someone talks about the marvel of the internet, you'd ask the person to go read about the Abacus that was invented 4700 years ago. This is the peril of fencism. You've tied your identity to not being in a camp, so you feel like you have to downplay Russia's achievement and play up non-existent US successes Except in this case, there is nothing to play up. Right now, the Chinese are researching quantum computing and nuclear fusion, but they're still struggling with turbofan engine technology for their civilian jetliner. There is a mammoth gulf between research and operational deployment. The US has research projects for FTL and terraforming. Neither is feasible in the next 100 years. So pulling up Project Pluto is nonsensical. The US at this moment is at least a decade behind Russia in missile technology. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone has their strengths. For instance, I have highlighted here that the US has a larger tanker fleet than the rest of the world combined. -Lord |

Blakjewelry:Why do you believe the container and other factors canāt hold? Same container and other factors are operational for decades in a nuclear submarine. Am sure this missile was built to withstand atmospheric wear and tear the same way submarines withstand deep sea pressure. The Russians said the test is not the maximum range, they say it has unlimited range. I donāt know what unlimited range means but I wonāt be surprised if itās years. Can you drop the link for the propulsion system, the ramjet article. |

LordAdam16:Burevestnik is a nuclear breakthrough. Do you think the miniature nuclear reactor can be used for civilian purposes, like powering remote places not connected to the grid? If the answer above is yes then I think this might be the same technology the Russians will use for space exploration. When Russia said they will build a nuclear reactor in the moon I said in your dreams, with this tech itās possible. |

Mikasaobi:You dey go far. After Air Peace uses a jet for 15 hours, they send it back to Embraer to dismantle it. When an airline buys a brand new Airbus A220, they expect to use it for only 15 operational hours before an overhaul. Some people will have brains but refuse to use it. The Airbus Zephyr flew for 64 days. Even the regular Chinese Wing Loong II drone stays airborne for 32 hours. But he thinks a nuclear powered cruise missile cannot stay airborne for months. It is hard to overstate the damage done by Western propaganda. -Lord |

https://www.rt.com/russia/627105-burevestnik-nuclear-technology-putin/ The missileās reactor āis comparable in output with a reactor of a nuclear-propelled submarine, but itās 1,000 times smaller,ā Putin said. āBut the key thing is that where a regular reactor needs hours, days or weeks to go online, this one launches in minutes or seconds.ā The discoveries made during the creation of the unique power plant will find applications in civilian life, for example in building energy infrastructure in the Arctic, the president said. Meanwhile, the electronic components shielded from radiation that were developed for the Burevestik are already being used in space missions and will be utilized in Russiaās Moon exploration program. During a meeting this week, he reported a successful trial of the Poseidon system, an advanced nuclear torpedo that is understood to use the same technology as the Burevestnik for propulsion. āFor the first time, we succeeded not only in launching it from a submarine using its booster engine, but also in starting its nuclear power unit, which provided energy to the vehicle for a certain period of time. This is a tremendous success,ā Putin said. He added that the Poseidonās reactor is miniaturized to a lesser degree than the Burevestnikās, being roughly 100 times smaller than a regular submarine reactor. @ LordAdam All the answers Dey the article š.
