Clintoon shut it down, said we did not need it cause Russia was our friend.
The cruise missile on a Russian Sub I believe goes 200 miles at Mach 2 to foil anti missile systems then drops to cruise for final flight path. Such a strike from offshore USA could wipe out all major costal cities, and kill 75% of America’s population in aprox 15 minutes.
Good first strike, and much cheaper too.
Really? Did anyone tell the Navy that?
We have at least 5 Ohio class submarines on alert at all times. Ready for war 24/7. Together they carry 480 thermonuclear warheads.
More than enough to the economic potential of Russia.
