The 9K720 Iskander
NATO reporting name SS-26 Stone) is a mobile short-range ballistic missile system produced and deployed by the Russian Federation.

The missile systems are to replace the obsolete OTR-21 Tochka systems, still in use by the Russian armed forces, by 2020.

Russian version can launch a pair of 'projectiles" at a time.

Also - The SS-26 Iskander is a short-range, road-mobile, solid-fueled ballistic missile system. Development began in the Soviet Union during the early 1970’s as replacement for the ‘Scud B’. The Iskander program was accelerated when the OTR-23 was banned by the 1987 INF treaty, resulting in a lack of a modern theater missile system. The Iskander has earned the nickname of the “Son of Scud”.

Interesting how you failed to further research much further into the PRIMARY where I not only provided my support for our President but also communicated that I had voted for him. Of course you didn’t. Nah, that just stops your argument right in its tracks.

Does it hurt that badly to give up on rehashing a primary that occurred....say.... over 3 years ago?

[an amused spectator]

We see you...

That explains a lot about Mr. Jarhead and some of his buddies here. My evaluation of his comments was right on the mark, which is usually the case.☺ Thanks.

The State department is up again early, undermining Trump.
State department is a nest of traitors to America.

[Jarhead9297]

You’re so cute including your girlfriend groupie in your response.

[DesertRhino]

The Asahi Shimbun is considered a rather left-leaning newspaper. Probably required reading for the never Trumper community over there.

[dragnet2]

You're still butt hurt your boy lost. Now your motives come to light. Always a motive...

But don't feel too bad, at least he beat his wife!☺

[Jarhead9297]

You never addressed my join date. First you call me a “noob” to discredit me as if that holds any bearing, then NeverTrumper. You then doubled down on stupid by further calling into question my join date (of course further not doing any research on what I stated). Once you were further caught with your crank in your hand (who I voted for) you lash out (because that’s what is so “in” these days) by labeling me.

This whole episode is hilarious.

[Jarhead9297]

I’m sorry but the only folks I find butt hurt and constantly reminding folks of a primary that ended over 3 years ago. What’s that song, “let it gooo let it gooo”

That’s the difference between basing someone’s success on policy and action vs. the person and your reply speaks volumes. “Your boy”

I don’t have “a boy” I’m not an idol worshipping fanatic. I got sick of seeing that with the last President. You may have “a boy” but of course you do this is why you snap when there is a policy disagreement voiced with our President. I proudly voted for Trump, think he is doing wonderfully, I DO NOT AGREE with 100% of what he does and feel he was naive in this instance. If that make me a Never then so be it. Whatever term du hour makes ya happy skippy

Blubberty! blubberty!

NeverTrump, always chump. ;-)

Nana nana boo boo

[an amused spectator]

Let's face it - Jarhead the n00b would be A-OK with a Democrat appointing Lefty Democrats to the Federal bench, because Muh Cruzin.

Which is why JarJar & ANeverTrumperInEdo get a thrill up their leg whenever they see a lefty "TrumpFail in NorK" article.

Nit sure Kim is the one making decisions here. Not sure he’s in control.

[dfwgator]

I had a chance to watch North Korean TV during one of their meetings, Kim never said a word, he just sat there, while other speakers were going on. It made me question right there, if he was just a figurehead.

Kind of like Hirohito, when Tojo was really running the show, so the question is, who is the Nork’s “Tojo”?

[Hostage]

I wonder if NKTojo is Korean, maybe Chicom? But it indeed looks like Kim is controlled.

[caww]

Yes, he’s like an Emperor figurehead might be. Not calling the shots.

[Hostage]

Adding a fact that may be relevant; PRC is very opposed to Korean reunification. It is likely they will do anything to stop it.
