@Faytuks Its looking a lot like Iran understands that they have the ability to survive a sustained air campaign. They have the ability to inflict significant damage to the region; so they're playing hard ball.
Basically putting two options on trumps desk.
Take a horrible deal or invade.
@Happygilmore776@vcdgf555 Nothing has been proven to hit these IRBM’s.
Ukraine has patriot and THAADs iirc and nothing can touch these - as they are able to manoeuvre in re-entry to evade AD interceptors.
@SoroushP4 @MarioBendigali @GordoCDA Nope. It’s a nuclear only strike vehicle - what makes it special is its hypersonic with multiple re-entry vehicles.
@PiratePatriot47@GordoCDA I’m not saying anything.
I’m saying that there is reported intelligence that indicates they are preparing one or multiple Oreshnik missiles, and there is discussions in the five eyes intel community that these are armed.
@DefenceGeek@hey_itsmyturn All hands like this is not for a peace deal.
The Russian strike tonight is prompting a massive reaction from the US.
Potential armed Oreshnik, and talk of summer movements into Baltics.
Do we know if there have been concentrations of troops in Belarus recently?
@vcdgf555 Yea. Everything that I’ve seen and heard from Canadian side, and other five eyes, is that this missile is armed - not hollow like the past launches.
Russia is losing and with the major UA strikes on oil- RU is getting desperate. I could see a small yield weapon as a warning.
@michaelh992 This makes no sense - as the Qatari and Pakistani delegations all left in a rush to get out before nightfall.
All signs are pointing to conflict.
