Putin lackey Donald Trump ok's banned US-Russia Arms Treaty missile test

[JGalt]

Once again, our illustrious Russian-collusionist Putin-puppet President has succumbed to the will of the Kremlin. This time he gave the Pentagon the OK to conduct a test of a type of missile that previously had been banned for the last 30 years, under a treaty between the United States and Russia.

Why oh why did we ever elect that orange SOB??

"The test, which took place off the coast of California, marks the resumption of an arms competition that some analysts worry could increase U.S.-Russia tensions after the two world powers abandoned a long-standing treaty earlier this month.

The Trump administration says it remains interested in useful arms control but questions Moscow's willingness to adhere to its treaty commitments.

The Pentagon on Monday said it tested a modified ground-launched version of a Navy Tomahawk cruise missile. The department said the missile was launched from San Nicolas Island and accurately struck its target after flying more than 500 kilometers (310 miles). The missile was armed with a conventional, not nuclear, warhead..."

Putin tests a new type of missile, Trump has to test one too.

It's a dick measuring thing with Trump.

how is new self defense tech for the US helping the Russians ?

That's not how any of this works. We come up with new stuff, the Russians copy it, and the Chinese steal it.

But at least ours don't blow up in the factory.

Ooops, my bad. This was supposed to be in the political satire forum.

We abandoned nuclear powered missiles back in the 50's and 60's. We knew back then that they were a bad idea, and not only that, more than likely dangerous as hell to store and launch.

Nuclear-Powered Cruise Missiles Are a Terrible Idea. Russia’s Test Explosion Shows Why

When President Donald Trump heard that Russia’s experimental nuclear-powered cruise missile had exploded, killing seven scientists and causing a major radiological incident less than 300 miles from the Finnish border, he fired off a boastful tweet. “We have similar, though more advanced, technology,” he said.


This is…not accurate. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, the United States pursued a less advanced version of a similar technology but abandoned the effort before ever launching an actual test vehicle. Nuclear-powered cruise missiles, the Pentagon concluded, are a bad idea.

I disagree. Russian-made passenger aircraft have the highest incidence of splattering bodies all over the ground. That doesn't mean that we should give up ours

The US military determined that they weren't feasible, all the way back in the 50's and 60's. We don't have any of those kinds of missiles because we know they won't work.

Killjoy. Would you would have said that before they fired up Los Alamos in the 40's?

Good thing for all of us that nobody did. I for one don't relish the idea of being used for bayonet practice by some Imperialist Japanese soldiers.

There are several reasons why a nuclear powered missile is a bad idea. If the system is open, then when the missile is flying, nuclear material is being spewed in it's wake. If the nuclear system is sealed (like on a sub or carrier, but much smaller), then at a minimum, when the missile explodes, you have a low yield dirty bomb. If the explosion of the warhead is big enough to set off the nuclear material that powered the missile, you then have a low yield nuclear weapon.

It takes small steps to make big ones. How else are we going to develop any kind of extended high-speed space travel without nuclear-powered engines? Someone is going to have to come up with them first, better we than the Russians or Chinese. Having lived through an era of Cold War and nuclear testing I have plenty of faith in good old American technology.

But I'm sure there were people who were also nervous about Robert Goddard using highly-explosive liquid fuel, when he was tinkering with his rockets.

There is a huge difference between a nuclear powered engine for space travel and a nuclear powered missile for war. One explodes, the other doesn't. And, the one that explodes ends up messing up the place where it blew up.

We could just give him California and New York, and call it even. After all, we did get Alaska.
