What “independent” confirmation you ever may get man? In this times of overall propaganda flows all around us.
Use your brains instead. First point why they bother to develop a new system at all if it isn’t give them a new capabilities? Second point Pentagon spokesman said this new system is destabilizing. This one I consider a confirmation. :)))
