Military friend says we are there.

Can anyone confirm and explain what this means? Real answers only, please.

I just hope our efforts at preventing climate change survive this nuclear war with Russia.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Ask your military friend.

It's missile rattling 🤪

Since the 1950's We have had Defense Conditions one through five.

DEFCON 1 (codename "COCKED PISTOL") is the highest, referring to a confirmed state of nuclear war. The use of nuclear weapons is authorized here, but they will still require unlock codes from high authority.

If we are at DEFCON 2 there would be no B-52s or B-2s on the ground right now.

It's missile rattling

Flaccid penis rattling.

We don’t have a right to know this.

We have no standing in the matter.

It’s bad. It means Biden needs a double diaper.

[going hot]

Well, gotta start somewhere.

[Starboard]

We probably have WOKECON levels now.

“The current defcon level overall is now at Defcon level 2.”

[Carriage Hill]

DefCon 3 is less bad than DefCon 1. That’s about all I know.

[jimtorr]

Actually, it does not refer only to nuclear war, but any attack or imminent attack on USA or US interests.

DefCon 3: Increase in force readiness above that required for normal readiness. Air Force ready to mobilize in 15 minutes

LOL - Ding, ding, dine we have a thread winnah!

[Deo volente]

If you click on USA the current level is 4 (Northern Command).

I don’t know what “overall level” means on this site.

This cannot be an official defense site or we here at FR would have no access to it.

Putin has a lot of weapons to use on us before needing to fire off nukes (such as nuclear drone subs to flood our coastal cities with tsunamis). I suspect he’ll start with weapons like that, prior to his big bombs.

[Captain Peter Blood]

Back during the Cold War we had our bombers in the air 24/7 flying to their Fail Safe points. That is no longer the case. Don’t know what the protocols are now.
