I believe this weapon is currently very limited in numbers. Unfortunately, the Chinese have probably been involved. The Chicoms probably have this technology. The Russian and Chinese military industrial behemoth will be cranking out these warheads massively. There is no shortage of Russian ICBMs to deliver the warheads anywhere in the world. If DC declares war on Russia, the Capitol, White House and Pentagon could disappear 5 minutes after our radar picked up the inbound Oreshnik. Yes, they can be mounted on loitering subs off our east coast. It would be a conventional kinetic strike. Zero damage, zero fallout in Alexandria! Concede the conventional checkmate. Don’t commit suicide out of frustration. Make peace.

I don’t think you know what the word “kinetic” means.

A .22 caliber pistol is a kinetic weapon.

My conclusion? NATO is done.

Hyperbole much?

Is this guy a teenage girl or a man? No need to answer, it’s the former.

Where does the assumption we can’t counter these weapons or don’t already have them ourselves come from?

Is this like Rods from God? I thought we had that already.

“It would be a conventional kinetic strike. Zero damage, zero fallout”...

So no damage? Then why do it?

Since you mention it as kinetic, how much mass is involved? It would have to be a large mass to do any damage. And this limits it to only the most powerful rockets?

While our land-based ICBMs are ageing out and their replacement is decades away (if ever).

But let's spend a few trillion on a hand-full of "heavy" bombers that don't even have the bomb capacity of the paltry B-2s.

I think the Trump administration is in for a surprise at how far our military has regressed in just four years.

Vlad in his latest speech stated they will give a 72 hour notice to evacuate his targeted areas. It behooves the war cheerleaders to start listening to Vlad, he means what he says.

That said, a sure fire method of bringing the West and Ukraine to the table is to level Kiev , with a non nuclear western style “ shock and awe”. Once Kiev is uninhabitable, I am sure the West will see the errors of their despicable ways….

…..and put an end to the US’s forever wars.

X post: "...The west must now either back off or go nuclear. They will probably choose to go nuclear out of desperation, be warned..."

Hopefully, DC will have enough sense to wait until Mr. Trump is in office (but I won't be holding my breath, given the Biden admin/swamp/deep state track record)...

Another Putin Puppet calling for surrender to Putin.

Um, reentry warheads have been around along time.

Maybe you should go to your junior high school library and looks up “ICBM” and “SLBM”.

the man is being a bit dramatic. In other words, the new weapon can accomplish what ICBMs can accomplish but without the radioactive fall out. All those targets that he mentions that can be taken out by the new weapon have always been vulnerable to ICBMs which are much faster.

It does look like the Biden administration is more keen on World War III and the attendant nuclear eradication of humanity than Putin is.

I find kinetic bombs lacking in potential.

And just how fast is this capability that it can outrun a laser? Warfare has always changed with weaponry. The bottom line for the last century has been technology coupled with manufacturing infrastructure and control of raw materials.

As to the latter two, the US has a decent mineral base sequestered by environmental setasides. As to manufacturing technology, it is our educational system that betrays us, daily. Trump had best get us building micro-nukes for AI infrastructure in a hurry.

Our Small Diameter Bomb does not carry an explosive payload.

Useful for killing the occupants of a moving vehicle while limiting collateral damage outside the vehicle to a traffic jam.

The writer of this "Tweet" is....

"Founder of Brighteon and Natural News, mass spec food lab director, #1 bestselling author of 'Food Forensics,' patent holder and decentralized tech maverick,"

Health Ranger's CV

From Amazon, "Award-winning investigative journalist and clean food activist Mike Adams, the 'Health Ranger,' is founder and editor of Natural News, one of the top health news websites in the world, reaching millions of readers each month."

The titles of some of his podcast/audios are seen at:

Source: Natural News Audio Books

Adams tweeted this 18 September 2024, "If Israel put explosives in 5,000 pagers, could they have also put explosives in the Twin Towers? Or the port in Beirut? Asking for a friend..."

And he predicted ballot stuffing against Trump would "win" the election... "PREDICTION: The Democrats are going to steal this election, just like the last one. MILLIONS of fake ballots have already been printed and are being distributed to the ballot stuffing centers across the states. Democrats don't even care if you notice, at this point. They're just going to unload PALLETS of BALLOTS and run them through the machines, even in full view of the public, and then declare Kamala the winner no matter what. This is the plan."

Source: Health Ranger Tweet, 18 October 2024.

One notes that "his" Brighteon, as well as Natural News, solicits your name and email address, as do so many. Using to Twitter/X to compete with X/Twitter ultimately, not to mention Truth Social....

Oh, yeah, his 18 October election prediction was wrong. Too.

US needs to develop and deploy the old Rods from God kinetic weapon. Power of a nuke, but no fallout
