You do know the Russians can stack Avangard missiles atop their Oreshnik delivery system. One Oreshnik with a payload of 130 tons of TNT. Forget that! What’s 130tons of TNT being dropped at a time all over Europe when we’re talking about keeping your hero, Spandex Pants, rolling in grift and MIC profits through the roof?

“The high speed of the Avangard likely gives it far better target-penetration characteristics than subsonic cruise-missiles. The Avangard weighs about 2,000 kg and travels at Mach 20–27, giving it the equivalent of 21 tons of TNT in kinetic energy alone, excluding any explosive warhead.”
