The Biden administration is preparing to step up the kind of weaponry it is offering Ukraine by sending advanced, long-range rocket systems that are now the top request from Ukrainian officials, multiple officials say.
The administration is leaning toward sending the systems as part of a larger package of military and security assistance to Ukraine, which could be announced as soon as next week.

Sorry, but that was an answer during the Cold War, when stockpiles were 10 times as much. Things are different now, hence the updated information for you.
Are you a VN vet?
>>Might want to send them to Taiwan instead.
You are about to get your war that WILL involve us.<<
Yep. Thinkin it’s bout to get real.
Limited vocabulary also.
That’s exactly my point, the Poles (among others) want to draw the US into their historic grievance with Russia and somehow exact revenge. No thanks.
Sure glad our media is always there to alert the other side
what our plans are. Not that the other side in this case
wouldn’t have known in weeks or months anyway, but why
must our MSM aid the other side so much.
I don't read that rag on general principle, so I'll have to take your word. What was the basis of that assessment?

“Sorry, but that was an answer during the Cold War, when stockpiles were 10 times as much. Things are different now, hence the updated information for you.”
In round numbers, Russia has 5,000; we have 4,000; China has about 400 and is on a fast-track to build more; no one knows how many Israel has, but I’ve heard 100; France has 300; Britain has 200; Pakistan has 170; India has 160; North Korea has 20; Iran...on the cusp.
That’s well over 10,000. If it’s all-out, everyone loses.
But, I see you are hoping you will survive with Russia, which, according to you can expect half its population to survive. But, that’s assuming they let you in (maybe you’re already there?). Enjoy your survival. Don’t forget the sunscreen.
Too many war mongers cheerleading. Or maybe this guys connection/angle relates to keeping the US money flowing and the money laundering and skimming ops running for his pol pals...
USAF 1970-1974. USAFSS (that was Air Force Intelligence back in those days). I was in Asia. I spied on the USSR. We intercepted all their comms and telemetry.
All the blather about Crazy Ivan using nukes is just that: they won't use them against us because they know they'll be incinerated in return and they won't use them against Ukraine because they know NATO and the US would have their conventional nuts skinned and mounted almost immediately.
You might be surprised to learn that not every nuclear weapon is large enough to take a city...do some research instead of pulling crap out of your...
I agree. All this nuke talk is just war porn. Nukes are deterrents, and their value is in just that. It’s like insurance.
“What was the basis of that assessment? “
Someone here had posted it, so I said it in sarcasm. We have no idea either way, but I expect that Russia will do a ‘test’ of one or more in Siberia, just to find out if they’re still working properly...assuming we keep this war going.
And after we kick Poland out of NATO, I want you deported back to Poland. You can be the one to lead the charge against Russia yourself, instead of dragging us into it,
“You might be surprised to learn that not every nuclear weapon is large enough to take a city...do some research instead of pulling crap out of your...”
Why, you little piss ant. I know full well what strategic weapons are and tactical weapons are; and I know what destruction they can cause. The initial destruction is severe, but pales in comparison to the resulting and long-lasting impact of destroyed infrastructures, destroyed food sources, contaminated water, etc. Then, come the plagues, and the epidemics, which will run through weakened societies like wild fire. And that’s just a start. That’s why I said the more primitive peoples would be the most likely to survive, as they will be the most isolated.
Dont worry, it’s all over in a few days when the orcs capture that village....putards say it is so...
Kissinger doesn’t think it just talk, neither does John Mearsheimer a Russian expert, both of who would be in a better position to know than you. The only ones downplaying that possibility are the neocon nutjobs.
I can see that would be well after you’ve deported yourself to the land of stupidity, to where I will not be following.
