I suggest you, write one sentence in one thread then in another you can put a full stop. It would be in Russian style, it looks big. Though a few weeks ago you were Ukrainian, I wonder what are going to be next. I suggest an American, after all who wants ti go back to lard and cabbage ?

This will pretty much give an overview of what nuclear weapon projects are publicly known and the roles that they will play.

Yars

Yars.jpg



Yars has a between 11,000kms to 12,000kms maneuvers from the start to end phase by not following a traditional ICBM path but controlled thrust vectors which make it easier to use for liquid fuel than solid fuel rockets. Options for warheads are 3-6 MIRVs with 300-500 kiloton warheads or 6 to 9 150 kiloton warheads. Yars-S is a modernization approval over the existing Yars. The missiles also carry targeting countermeasures and decoys, about 136+ mobile versions and 16 silo versions have been made.

Barguzin


1671924894051.png


Based on picture the explanation is pretty straight forward, 3 missiles based on the Bulava missile are attached to one of the high-speed train trailers. They will be A.I controlled and choose random different paths, go underground, etc, to throw off adversaries monitoring their weapons via satellite.

Cedar


1671926111528.png


Yars was a replacement for Topol and Cedar is a replacement for Yars not much is known other than being more advanced than Yars. Creation of missile will begin in 2023-2024.

Sarmat


1671926662323.png


The most powerful nuclear weapon in their arsenal that carries 10-15 MIRVs with unspecified amount of Avangards which I will discuss after this missile, I am assuming the blast yjelds will be equivalent to Satan missile. But as what I would expect the missile has many countermeasures implemented before reaching its target and the 1st is using the Mozyr active protection system around its silos which fire projectiles at a 6km altitude against cruise missiles, bombs, warheads. 2nd what i heard from other sources is that it uses detonation engines which accelerate faster than conventional 1st stage engines used which reduces the tracking time to intercept them. 3rd the 18,000km range allows it to travel or rather fly a trajectory through the south pole which states makes the missile immune from air defenses trying to hit it which I guess is due to powerful X-rays from solar flare radiation from the south pole and has a FOB capability of deploying warheads at low altitudes to travel to its intended targets.

Avangard


1671927966196.png



The Avangard is a hypersonic glide vehicle that based on different claims has speeds of mach 20 to mach 27. It gets released at an altitude of 100kms being carried from a missile and makes the rest of its 6000km + range to its target with a 2-megaton payload. So, what makes the HGV difficult to intercept is its lower altitude flight than ballistic missile flight ceilings, maneuverability and speed which I am guessing gives it plasma properties stronger than the Zircon missile giving radars a difficult time to track it. About 8 Avangards are in service but equipped in UR-100 missiles. Russians have created new materials that can burn up to 4200 degrees Celsius which can give them more hypersonic projects to work with on faster speeds and lower altitudes.

Burevestnik


1671929062648.png



I would like to call this a 3rd strike nuclear weapons because after all the high-speed nuclear missiles are exchanged this subsonic low flying missile will have an unlimited flight range (depending how long miniature nuclear engines last) just looking for survivors and it will be A.I. controlled. It will use radar horizon to fly low and avoid any air defenses assuming if there are any that will still function.

Poseidon

1671929531252.png



An AI torpedo with a 10,000km range, 1km depth and high-speed underwater nuclear warheads that can be launched from one their submarines like Belgorod to destroy cities either physically by hitting the coasts or according to other arguments and online articles depending on payloads and depths, cause radioactive tsunamis.

This pretty much covers their nuclear weapons and their other nuclear weapons have been discussed earlier in other articles from their navy, army and air force.

Two Tu-160M strategic missile carriers have been handed over to Russia for flight tests. We are talking about the first aircraft mass-produced under the Tu-160M reproduction program, and the Tu-160 combat aircraft, which underwent a deep modernization. The weapons bays of the new Tu-160Ms house two drum launchers for 12 cruise missiles. In addition to the already existing Kh-101 missile and its nuclear counterpart Kh-102, the Tu-160M arsenal will include several types of medium and long-range missiles that are under development. The updated missile carriers are superior to their predecessors and the production of these combat aircraft will be increased. The Tu-160 is capable of overcoming 12 thousand kilometers without refueling, while developing a maximum speed of 2200 km/h.

Italy has confirmed it is ready to supply Ukraine with its Samp-T air defense system after weeks of doubt over Rome’s readiness to hand over the costly kit. Italy will team with France to send the system to Kyiv, which has issued an urgent appeal for air defense capabilities as Russia bombards Ukraine with missiles and mounts loitering munition attacks.
The SAMP-T air defense missile system was developed by EUROSAM, a joint venture by MBDA France and Italy, and Thales. The system can engage larger aircraft at a range of up to 120 km. Range against ballistic and anti-radiation missiles is 15 km.
The SAMP-T system can be adapted to work with various long-range radars. Detection range is 300 to 400 km, when using a Thales GM400 long-range radar. The launcher vehicle can be located up to 25 km from the radar vehicle. The system uses a NATO-compliant Link 16 communications architecture.

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko recently made headlines when he called for Russia to station nuclear weapons in Belarus, arguing that it would provide greater security for both countries in the face of perceived threats from NATO and other Western powers. This controversial proposal has been met with both support and condemnation from politicians, experts, and citizens around the world.

The idea of Russian nuclear weapons being stationed in Belarus is not a new one; in fact, it has been discussed for many years. Lukashenko's recent comments, however, have brought the issue back to the forefront of global discourse. The Belarusian president has argued that such a move would be necessary to deter potential aggressors, particularly in light of the ongoing conflict in neighboring Ukraine.

Belarus has long been a strategic buffer zone between Russia and NATO, and Lukashenko has sought to maintain a delicate balance between the two. However, in recent years, tensions have increased between Belarus and the West, particularly following Lukashenko's controversial re-election in 2020, which was widely criticized as fraudulent.

Since then, Lukashenko has cracked down on opposition voices and civil society, leading to international condemnation and economic sanctions from the West. In response, Lukashenko has turned to Russia for support, and the two countries have strengthened their military and economic ties.

However, Lukashenko's proposal to station Russian nuclear weapons in Belarus has raised concerns both within the country and abroad. Some experts argue that it would make Belarus a target for attack in the event of a conflict, while others worry that it could lead to a new arms race in Europe and further destabilize the region.

Moreover, the proposal has raised questions about the effectiveness of nuclear weapons as a deterrent, particularly in light of recent technological advancements in conventional warfare. Many experts argue that the use of nuclear weapons would be catastrophic and that there are more effective ways to ensure national security.

In addition to the security implications, the proposal has also raised questions about the legality of such a move. Belarus is a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which prohibits the transfer of nuclear weapons to non-nuclear states. While Lukashenko has argued that the proposed move would not violate this treaty, it remains a contentious issue.

Furthermore, the proposal has drawn attention to the broader geopolitical landscape of Europe and the role of Belarus in it. The country's strategic location between Russia and NATO has long been a source of tension, and Lukashenko's proposal has only added to the uncertainty.

In conclusion, while the idea of stationing Russian nuclear weapons in Belarus may seem like a logical move from a security perspective, it raises significant concerns and poses many unanswered questions. It is unclear whether such a move would actually enhance national security, and it could have potentially disastrous consequences for the region and the world as a whole. As such, it is important that all parties involved carefully consider the implications of this proposal before making any decisions.

Hello Kamran Shehxad. If Putin says he is going to place Nuclear weapons on Belarusian soil, you can "take that to the bank"! It will happen given the mentality of Russia's so called "Head of State" no matter what the West thinks or the people of Belarus say. After all, Belarus is not a free society with a free minded President. It is a Russian protectorate that will yield to whatever Putin says in the end. "The Dooms-day Clock is now ticking a little closer to midnight!

Footage of the work of Russian military personnel with the Igla MANPADS has been published. The third-generation complex entered service with the Russian army in 1981, and since 1994 it has been exported to more than 30 countries around the world. MANPADS "Igla" has been repeatedly modernized, the most modern version of the complex is MANPADS "Igla-S". In addition to aircraft and helicopters, the 9K338 complex can also be used to destroy cruise missiles and UAVs flying at speeds below 1600 kilometers per hour. MANPADS uses a new 9M342 missile weighing 11.7 kg, with a 2.5-kg high-explosive fragmentation warhead. In the optical homing head of missiles, two photodetectors are used, which provide better selection of thermal noise. To achieve the maximum effect of defeat, the rocket is configured to hit not in the engine nozzle, but in the central part of the target. The probability of hitting a fighter-class target with a single missile is 80 to 90%. MANPADS "Igla" was used in all wars and has proven itself well. The complex is capable of hitting targets at ranges up to 6,000 meters and altitudes up to 3,500 meters. The mass of MANPADS in the combat position is 17 kg, the readiness time is 12 seconds. The price of the Igla-S MANPADS is 80 thousand dollars.

Russian aviation began to use in Ukraine powerful corrected aerial bombs KAB-1500LG. The bomb is usually dropped from SU-24M, SU-34 and SU-35 aircraft, from a height of 1 to 8 kilometers. The KAB-1500LG guided aerial bombs are equipped with laser gyro-stabilized homing heads, and are guided from an aircraft equipped with a laser target illumination system, or using ground target designation. The KAB-1500 bomb, weighing 1.5 tons and having a warhead weighing 1170 kilograms, can penetrate 3 meters of reinforced concrete or 20 meters of earth. Accuracy of hit from 4 to 7 meters. The impact of such a bomb on Ugledarsky was caught on video

It is not often that you see Russian factories for the production of ammunition and bombs. The video shows the production process of FAB-500, FAB-1500 bombs and other ammunition at the plant. Such bombs are capable of destroying any reinforced concrete shelters, even if they are underground. In recent months, the Russian military-industrial complex has increased the output of ammunition by several times, the output of some types has been increased by 50 times, and Russian arms factories are working in three shifts.

In Russia, they begin to modernize missiles for MLRS. For the first time, part of the elements from missiles for Russian multiple rocket launcher is planned to be replaced from metal to polymer. Modernization will make it possible to reduce the cost and speed up the production of missiles, make the hull lighter, and the missiles will become more long-range while maintaining the same dimensions. Which MLRS missiles will be upgraded has not yet been reported. Most likely, missiles for the TornadoS MARS, Uragan MRS and Smerch MRLS will be upgraded.

The Russian Ministry of Defense officially announced the use of modernized high-precision Krasnopol-M projectiles. The 3OF39M projectile was seen on video while being loaded into the Msta-S self-propelled gun. In order to achieve maximum firing range, the “Krasnopol-M” projectile uses a bottom gas generator instead of an accelerating engine; it is made in a monoblock version, which made it possible to reduce the length of the projectile. The number of retractable projectile stabilizers has been increased to 6 pieces. The Krasnopol projectile is designed to hit targets with the first shot at a range of up to 26 km. The projectile has a higher probability of hitting the target, up to 90%, in contrast to the basic Krasnopol 3OF39 projectiles, where the probability of hitting is up to 80%. Correction of the projectile flight is carried out by aerodynamic control surfaces at the final stage of flight according to the laser mark on the target.

Rare footage of the dropping of Russian FAB-500M62 aerial bombs in Ukraine, equipped with universal planning and correction modules, has been published. The video shows the process of opening the wings on the FAB-500M62 aerial bombs and its strikes on targets. Glide bombs are dropped from a Russian Su-34 aircraft. The UMPC bomb module includes special wings that fold out in flight and a wind drift correction system. Kometa-M noise-resistant receivers are installed on UMPC modules for aerial bombs to protect them from the effects of electronic warfare interference. The use of aircraft bombs equipped with a planning module allows bomb strikes at a distance of up to 70 kilometers, while the aircraft does not enter the air defense zone.

The Russian Black Sea Fleet conducted exercises to defeat a target training vessel with an anti-ship missile system with 3M-80 Moskit missiles. The Moskit anti-ship missile was fired from the small missile boat "Ivanovets" of Project 12411-M, technical information about the ships of this project is in the link to the video in the comments to the video. A decommissioned corvette was used as a target vessel. The P-270 “Mosquito” missile makes a “slide” after launch and then descends to a flight altitude of about 20 meters; when approaching the target, it drops to 7 meters. The missile has a flight range of up to 120 km and a mass of 3.95 tons, the mass of the warhead is 300 kg, the missile can even sink a cruiser.
