omg! shocked pikachu. russia has missles now that can reach the us. /s

This just in Russia has had missiles capable of reaching the US since the 1960s...

So. Maybe they forgot to admit the old missiles couldn’t….anymore.

That’s why this is a thing?

Will they have the misfire rate that their missles in Ukraine are having? Which depending on a source that isn't russian says 20-60%.

This isn't the type of weapon that you want to get out of the tube, 80% of the way to target and it go "Ooopsie! I forgot how to missle", then fall out of the sky. (Not that firing a nuke wouldn't be a bad time for everyone on the fucking planet in the first place)
