Russia Official Says It Has Technical Data On NATO Missile Shield
Forbes ^ | 9/28 | rapoza

Oh, those wild Russians.

According to Deputy Foreign Minister Segei Ryabokov, Russia knows everything it needs to know about the composition of the U.S. missile shield in Europe, he told reporters in Moscow on Friday.

“We have technical data about the number of interceptors, the set of launch-tracking tools and warning radars, the new platforms such as ground-based launchers and additional cruisers and destroyers,” Ryabokov said, adding that there is still time for Russia and the United States to reach an agreement over the missile defense system. It has been a sticking point between the two countries, with most of the allegations of foul play coming from the Kremlin.

Awesome best deterent is a weapon they try to find the short cuts and FAIL!!!

Isn’t that nice the Russians are trying to save us money because they know what we are doing and we are absolutely no threat to them anymore.

The Russians want to be able to intimidate Eastern Europe, and to a lesser extent non-nuclear Western Europe, including Germany, Scandinavia, Benelux, Switzerland and Italy.

I haven’t been keeping up with this story.

This seems odd:
“The U.S. stands by its claim that it has not kept any secrets from Russia.”

So why wouldn’t they have the info if the US isn’t keeping any secrets.

A lot of technical data is not even available to the UK. Under ABM treaties general capabilities and assets are disclosed.

If the Russian’s know so much about the system then they should have nothing to fear about it.So they can shut the hell up and we can resume building the one thing that we don’t have;An ABM system.

One of the things Nutcase promised the Russians when he was whispering and the mike was open He did not wait until he after the election..Below is something that was in my mail box this morning..Please watch..

I am forwarding this to you because it is something everyone who plans to vote in November needs to hear. And for those

who do not pay close attention to politics, IT WILL BE SHOCKING.

You will hear retired Lt Gen Boykin talk about what is going on in our country and how it relates to the training he has had

dealing with centralized governments around the world. He was commander of Delta Force and later Commander of the

US Army Special Operations Command. Gen Boykin is not a kook, he is an American hero, who spent many years in the

military serving our country. HE IS NOW TRYING TO WARN OUR COUNTRY.

PLEASE TAKE SIX MINUTES OF YOUR TIME AND LISTEN TO WHAT HE HAS TO SAY AND IF YOU AGREE, IT IS

IMPORTANT THAT YOU SEND IT TO EVERYONE YOU CAN THINK OF!

You can probably be rest-assured that Russia and China as well as the Arab world now knows everything it needs for a full invasion and military defeat of the US.

Elections have consequences.

anything that weakens or helps with the demise of the United States, the obozo is all in. The American people, for the most part, aren't stupid nor blind. Come Nov 7 and the propaganda machine declares obozo the victor, it will be from the corruption controlling this country. If/when the SHTF, let's not forget to ferret out those power elites (enemies of the US) who obozo is beholding for putting him in the WH

No one is trying to “bamboolze” anyone. Certain aspects are disclosed, like power-aperture, number, wavelength and types of radar, number of interceptors, locations and types. Some things are not disclosed, radar bandwidth, discrimination features, reliability data, results of flight tests, radar calibration logs.

I'm afraid the split is disturbingly close to 50-50.
