1st- We know the impact point very soon after enemy launch.
2nd- Once intercept failure is known, we know who's screwed.
3rd- The point of having interceptors is to make the thought of enemy launching an unacceptable risk.
It’s MSNBC, all they have is dated talking points.
Let’s see by your estimate then with 14,000 incoming Russian Missiles we would need approximately 11,200,000 missiles to shoot all of them down. Where would we get these from and how long to make them. Better off building a Death Star.
The idea of MAD worked, keeping the peace between nuclear powers, throughout the “cold war” and it will continue to do so.
I’m glad I didn’t put “spammingfr” in there too.
“Our only real path to escape nuclear catastrophe lies in reducing global arsenals.”
You first.
They still are not faster than conventional ballistic missiles.
It watched it.
It was a crock of sh!t.
The entire premise was farcical.
Laz the wise. 🤯
“Who is the supposed attacker in the trailer? A rogue element would not have MIRV missiles”
It’s not a MIRV it’s a single warhead heading towards a major urban city. They DSP satellite didn’t catch the launch it was caught in boost phase by X band radar. One of the story arcs says the DSP was blinded and compromised with also a cyber attack on it. Lasers on the ground can easily blind 1970s era tech this is exactly why Starshield is going up with thousands of hyper spectral imaging payloads laser data linked together to the AI Hivemind. Persistent stare won’t miss anything.
They purposely leave the origin unknown in the film, probably N.Korea via SLBM it’s caught over open water with an arc that shows a launch off the coast of N.Korea.
Its irrelevant as the movie shows once the balloon goes up everyone is launching or risking a first strike wipe out.
Spoiler alert: you never get to see if the single warhead hits and detonates not what the very Obambie looking prez final decision is it leave the view again on purpose to contemplate the ramifications of a rogue launch and GBI failing to smash it.
Truth is we need quad layer defences.
We need boost phase ship and airborne interceptors
We need ship based and ground based mid course interceptors with X-ray based enhanced radiation warheads or miniature kill vehicle’s that are coke can sized launched in groups of 50 or more on GBI and tens at a time on SM3 a swarm of MKV against MIRVS and decoys.
We need exoatmo terminal phase again with MKV on a SM3 land based around key cities using the new trailer mounted VLS cell module.
We need very fast SPRINT type 100G endoatmo terminal phase interceptors these can be VLS based as well single stage all propellant with a command guided pencil beam to cut through the mach 10+ plasma these should have 10kt nukes tips as they are the final resort using nukes is warranted and the only assured kill method in terminal phase. You don’t want nukes after the mid course phase above your own county it blinds the radar to what’s behind the first blast for a few min an eternity in a nuclear war.
^^^^^this is how Golden Dome should be set up we have 90% of the tech already, the ultrafast endoatmo would need a new rocket and we stopped making 10KT enhanced radiation warheads so Pantex would need to fire back up that process.
“The ending is very ambiguous. I wasn’t sure if Chicago had been nuked”.
There are at least five explosions as the credits are running. Not sure what that was supposed to mean. When the movie ended there was about one minute before the missile was supposed to strike Chicago. The first explosion was about one minute into the credits.
I believe the one enemy strike was designed for exactly what happened, which was the US going “well done”.
Right? Is the left going back to disarmament? It must be just a coincidence that Red China has a crash program to produce nuclear missiles. Markey is a CCP puppet.
We stopped watching when the credits started rolling when I saw there were like twelve minutes of credits. I couldn't believe it had ended. Evidently we missed some Easter eggs. Thanks for the info. I think they should not have rolled the credits until the actual end. Too clever by half.
We continued to let the credits run while we picked up our tv room. We turned the tv off after we heard the five spaced explosions, one that had multiple impacts I wonder if there were more after that. If the credits ran for twelve minutes there must have been more?
If all our agencies perform as spectacularly as they did leading up to and on 9/11, we won't stand a chance*.
*: I am not knocking the first responders or the passengers of Flight 93 ... but all the three-letter agencies who ignored intelligence, and let bin Laden metastasize.
Launch origin would be confirmed in the first 20 seconds after it left the silo or the mobile launcher or the sub. Premise = eviscerated.
"Nonsensical" and not plausible. Major nuclear powers now run war games 24/7 in AI to derive advise & consent (which Laughlean Bigtoad missed completely, and rendered her premise double nonplusgood + unreAIlistic), the sources are there if you look for them, tired of posting links for unappreciative Freeptards.
But one for the Freeptards anyway, from the heart -- just do the minimal reverse engineering on this docudramacomedy.
Bigelow needs a paycheck.
Idris, bless his heart, needs a paycheck now that he has aged out of inheriting Bond.
And Elba's paycheck pre-empted any other inclusion of anyone who could act lofl.
But the true poker-table tell is the title: "A House of Dynamite".
Are you fooking kidding me? A shitty Bruce Lee-era-knockoff-title right out of 1973.
When the Hollyweird committeelgbtqfu gets to decide your title after you've turned in your lesser work, CMON MAN.
I never liked The Hurt Locker and am pleased that Bigtoad went 8 years without making a feech, and this faceplant ensures she will never make another feech again. *spit*
Schadenfreude.
They didn't "ignore intelligence," or "let bin Laden metastasize."
It was an inside job.
I watched it Saturday night. Both me and the Mrs felt like we wasted 2 hours. No resolution, nothing but questions. Lame. Don’t watch movies or shows to have nothing but questions when they’re done.
That being said, they also only shot 2 missiles, had plenty of time for more. AND most of all. The policy of Mutually Assured Destruction is our main defense anyway.
Fortunately, I fell asleep 85% into the movie then came across the final synapses which turned me off on watching it to the end.
I thought there was a possibility it was a phantom VR missile spawned by hackers. especially since it spontaneously erupted from the Pacific Ocean with no obvious country of origin. The fact that other countries were acting like a missile was headed toward them made me think that.
As one of the DC characters said, launching a single ICBM is national suicide. A true preemptive nuclear attack would involve the launch of hundreds of missiles.
