it was a failed test. It’s a big hole in the ground

[Red Badger]

Maybe THAT was the ‘test’..................

[Timber Rattler]

Unlikely since satellite imagery currently shows Russian firefighting crews on the ground trying to put out all the secondaries fires the explosion caused.

AFTER:

So about all the Russian nuclear saber rattling that's going on...

[marcusmaximus]

Not the photo op Putin was planning before today’s start of the UN General Assembly today.

Exactly, which was what he was hoping for. Seems that Putin can’t get any of his strategic nuclear missiles to work anymore. The all blow up during or immediately after launch.

[Timber Rattler]

Must have been a huge fireball.

[Vermont Lt]

Gee, thats odd. It’s like there is something going on with some of the parts they are using. Funny how stuff like that happens.

[Red Badger]

Even the concrete is gone..................

[marcusmaximus]

Two U.S. spy planes were watching the test. Our crews must have been laughing their tails off on the way back to base.

And I thought an M-80 packed a punch.

[South Dakota]

Putin better call Hillary for more missile technology

[xkaydet65]

Is this actually worth two separate posts .

[kiryandil]

Four separate posts.

[kiryandil]

Five separate posts.

Because that cookie ain’t gonna cover itself.

ZEEPER FOLLIES PINGLIST!

(((PING!)))

... to be added to the best Zeeper-provided entertainment since Paul Shanklin parodies, ping me bro.

[californian by choice]

It is a pity that Putin did not go to witness this great event.

The UK Daily Mail is reporting a similar incident, the explosion of a “Satan-2” missile, but they’re claiming this was in a different location (Toropets, Tver Oblast, Russia), and it was caused by a Ukrainian “kamikaze” drone.

Which begs the question(s), might the Plesetsk explosion also have been a Ukrainian drone, or might the Ukrainians have ‘played’ the Daily Mail?

Or both.

Or neither.
