Behold the power of all these years of sanctions and how they have bankrupted Russia.

Aim the missile at Zelvis’s posterior. That will end the war faster than delivery of Jimmy Johns sandwich.

How does a nuclear powered missile develop propulsion?

Perhaps the term “nuclear powered” is being used in a philosophical rather than literal way? I do recall a film called ‘The Big Bus’ from the ‘60s about a nuclear powered bus.

I looked it up. There is such a thing and the US tried it in the 60s up to the prototype stage. Apparently the nuke preheats a SCRAM or RAM jet engine.

Sounds fairly unstable to me. Of course the Russians don’t particularly care if a few blow up and make a mess.

Plus zeepers breathlessly reported that PUTIN! was using parts from old dishwashers to repair these missiles.

They also said the missiles didn’t exist, couldn’t fly, were shot down 100% of the time by The Ghost of Ukraine, and that ukie grandmothers were knocking them out of the sky with potatoes.

They claim a lot of crap.

Hasn’t Putin died from cancer in about every part of his body, 20 times over?

Oh yes.

My favorite headline was, “Putin is maniacally shaking!”

I forget what fatal disease zeepers breathlessly reported he was dying of that time.

I just laugh!

It must be unstable.

I think it has blown up on all the previous tests.
