One of the basic rules of military intelligence and planning is to always assume that your opponent is the strongest they possibly can be. That way, you run the risk of overestimating your opponent rather than underestimating them.

This idiot needs to be mocked until he deletes his account.

not sure why these morons keep posting this stuff. In reality, russia has the world’s most advanced rocket systems that are decades ahead of everybody else. It is the west that is behind

Literally riding a Soyuz to the IIS while composing a 5000 word tweet about Russians not knowing how to build ICBMs.

fucking god, this “reusable rocket” nonsense is so annoying. I remember how the European Space Agency released a video on their youtube about their new carrier rocket and the entire comment section was like “wtf is this crap? All modern rockets have to be reusable!”. I hate pop science so much

Oh thank god, only a quarter of Russian nukes might actually work, maybe, based on the speculation of a moron! That’s only 1500 or so nukes, including a new one that could, by itself, destroy the UK! Nothing to worry about!

The best part of all the nuclear cope is Russia busting out a hypersonic country killing missile during the middle of all this bullshit. This is straight up schlock science fiction writing in real life.

The rocket stuff is obviously wrong, but the tritium half life got me chin stroking… Until i read up wiki and found that the tritium is actually pumped in prior to launch so it’s not like it’s mouldering away traped in the rocket. And tritium gets made in nuclear reactors, of which Russia has a few.

So yeah this doesn’t make sense at all. Tyre boy absolutely thirsting for that Twitter high from his " finally my army maintenance experience can get me credit" lucky shot

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
