Here's a metaphor, dude:

We're neighbors. You own a handgun. You tell me about this handgun.

The next day, I set up a .50 belt-fed machinegun pointed directly at your bedroom. Every now and then, I take this machinegun down to the range and I put about 500 holes through a target that's just a photograph of your bedroom.

When you started to get a little worried about this, I tell you it's just for keeping the dindus out. For some reason, you're not convinced.

Are you starting to get this now?

You're retarded my dude.

If you want to use the neighbors analogy, use it properly.

We're neighbors. You own a handgun. You tell me about this handgun.

The next day, I show up with a bullet proof vest. Every now and then, I take this vest to the range and test it with the same model of handgun you have.

When you started to get a little worried about this, I tell you it's just for making sure no one shoots me. For some reason, you think this is an offensive weapon.

That's an idiotic analogy, especially since THAAD is called TERMINAL high altitude for a reason. It can't intercept missiles in their boost phase. As >>31811491 said it's more like you both have guns and then you suddenly getting butthurt that your neighbor bought a vest.

Putin is just pissed because after 70 years of Russia and the United States being on somewhat equal footing regarding their nuclear triads, the US has finally gotten far enough ahead that his last viable option for offensive (Or reactive) nuclear attack is almost neutralized. Russia has always enjoyed ambiguity because it doesn't have a declared NFU policy, so if you get them in a bad enough position they could use nuclear weapons offensively. Take away that ability and NATO can steamroll over them with superior military power and Russia can't guarantee MAD with its current nuclear stockpile.

Essentially this gets finished Russia is looking at being in a glass bubble that if they ever used a nuclear strike for any reason, they would lose the ensuing exchange handedly. A Non-Nuclear Russia is a Non-Superpower Russia.

It's a dumb analogy.

Because you happen to have a GAU-8 mounted ontop your house pointed at his bedroom, while he only has a .22 handgun. Now, you clad yourself in an EOD-vest with SAPI plates, rendering the little deterrence he has even more useless.

And instead of de-escalating by removing your GAU-8, you modernize it by replacing it with a 127mm deck gun.

But dont forget that you cry bitchtears when your neighbor drops out from your disarmament treaties in reaction to your glorious efforts to secure 'peace and stability' in the neighborhood.
>>
>>31811700

And the US efforts to achieve nuclear domination over every of their enemies also disturbs long-standing NFU powers like China, who is considering dropping this policy and embark of nuclear expansion as well.

Lmao.

North Korean? Sure, 100%.

Chinese? Quite possibly.

Russian? No chance in hell. They have far too many launchers and far too many warheads for these tiny deployments of systems to threaten their second strike capability.
>>

Sure it can. All you have to do is swap out the warhead with a nuke.

>>31812600
That's dumb.

But it could really be offensively used by placing the missiles at the border of your enemy territory and shooting down his 2nd strike during boost phase.

THAAD's interception profile allows it.
>>
>>31811435
>>31811464

Your analogy sucks balls. Setting up a counter ICBM isn't like "Pointing a .50 heavy machinegun" at your neighbors. It's a defenseive weapon. Chicoms and gopnik faggots are butt hurt their nuclear missiles pointed at civilian cities could be shot down and save millions of lives.

Because the countries that Russia is threatening are on Russia's border.

If the USA was threatening Mexico I wouldn't hold it against Russia at all to deploy some ABM systems there.

THAAD is a point defense system. If the USA was truly trying to hurt Russia's ability to strike at the US, wouldn't it make more sense to deploy stuff like this?

>>31812600
You're retarded.

The reason defensive missiles are perceived as being aggressive is because they totally destroy the concept of deterrence by removing the ability of any nation to retaliate against the nation which has the defensive missiles using nuclear weapons. This means the nation with the defensive missiles can be as aggressive as it wants and use nuclear weapons however it wants without fear of retaliation.

Any country that us using nuclear weapons as a deterrent against aggression can rationally interpret one of its rivals developing ballistic missile defenses as a prelude to some kind of conflict.

No, that's a shitty analogy.

With the deployments of US ABM systems in Poland and Romania, it's more like:

>We're neighbors

>I own a handgun, so do you

>I then erect a 10 ft tall ballistic barrier around your property, claiming that it's to prevent noise, violating a bunch of city bylaws in the process

I believe there is already a planned coup d'etat in the works against Putin and his closest circle, using a few Oligarchs and the Fifth Column in Russian society.

Yes, because it is impossible to make a missile launcher use more than 1 type of projectile.

Who cares?

Well, the Russians seem to be concerned, quite visibly, and they're pouring a lot of money into defense and new offense systems, to ensure that any attempts at "democracy-bringing" remain too costly for American calculations of warfare.

If the Americans can neutralize Russian balancing weapons, then they will undoubtedly pursue regime change in Russia.

Of course they are. Their neighbors being stronger means the Russians are less able to bully them.

>If the Americans can neutralize Russian balancing weapons, then they will undoubtedly pursue regime change in Russia.

Sure, but nothing the US is doing is threatening to neutralize those weapons. If the USA wanted to threaten Russia's deterrence ability, they would be deploying first strike weapons, they would be deploying midcourse interceptors, they would be deploying point defense systems against likely second strike targets (in the USA).

They aren't doing any of that. They are deploying point defense system against threatened states near Russia.

So a "Terminal High Altitude Area Defense" missile system magically becomes a "point defense system" in your mind.

What strategically valuable "points" is it going to be protecting in the strategically important Romania, lel.

Other anon has already pointed out to you that the interception profile of THAAD and the new SM naval missiles is capable of hitting ICBMs in second stage..

It's quite obvious to anyone, with a few brain cells, that the goal is neutralization of Russian balancing weapons, and regime change.

You're just carrying water for the Neo-Con agenda.

Great.

If you believe in the most optimistic performance figures of SM-3 IIA, and give it an impossible response time, then it just maybe can intercept ICBMs coming out of southeast Russia*, with no capability at all against other eastern launch sites, and is certainly helpless against the central sites (which are the most likely to survive a first strike, but whatever...). And of course the Romanian site is highly vulnerable to being knocked out itself.

BUT, if you do believe in the SM-3 as a great anti-ICBM weapon, why fucking bother with European deployment? Put a few ships in the North Sea and you're far more suited to intercept eastern sited Russian ICBMs, and ships outta US ports on the coasts can hit stragglers (flyover states must suffer from a lack of coverage even with the highly optimistic SM-3 figures, but that's why if you want to stop Russian ICBMs you should build a Aegis Ashore in the fucking State).

*Assuming that despite their constant whining the Russians are also too stupid not to cross target so those missiles are heading too west for any chance of interception, but who cares about being reasonable?

The easiest way for the Korean peninsula issue to be solved is to go back o Great powers doctrine and have China, SK and the US invade simultaneously, with the UN footing the bill.

These are all measures to contain Russia and neutralize her strategic weapons.

>That's just a bunch of Bush-era hyperbole
So when you claimed Bush had only talked about NK, that was a lie.

>Iran has no nuclear program, now cemented with the deal Obama finalized.
A joke of a deal. Iran is continuing its intermediate missile program for a reason.

>Because they claim to be protecting US troops...
Even when I post a document outlining US claims, you feel completely free to make up whatever you want, that the US is purely interested in force protection. I would explain to you why you put bases in Poland and Romania to cover Iranian launches, but then you just posted this:

>These are all measures to contain Russia and neutralize her strategic weapons.
After I already explained it can do no such thing, which you didn't even bother acknowledging at all. You're just another /pol/ drone mindlessly posting.

Here's a fucking hint: the Russian nuclear arsenal right now is heavily concentrated (below New START delivery vehicle numbers by almost 200 while being well in excess of the warhead limit). If the Russian government was actually worried about a sneak attack* they would be focused on more launchers with less warheads and make Yars their primary ICBM. Instead just this week we got a nice wave of Russian propaganda about their new super ICBM which sounds wonderful on paper, until you think about why a country terrified on a first strike is going to put even more warheads on each silo based ICBM? But why am I wasting my fucking time. Enjoy your paranoid fantasies this my last response.

*A country actually worrried about sneak attack doesn't let their satellite warning system fucking burn out and leisurely replace it right now with merely a single test satellite, but whatever again

Not to mention if Iran keeps up with their nuclear program, they because inherently unsafe as their ability to conduct nuclear strikes are limited and the ability of the US and allies to truly fuck their shit up becomes nation ending.

>>31813965
This, on so many levels.
>>
>>31811700
But do you honestly think this shit actually works? I mean if Vlad launches 1600 warheads our way, how many will this ABM shit actually knock out, like 3 or 4? And what would be the point? Nonetheless, still personally scared shitless of a Hillary victory.

>>31815340
It won't work that way, that guy is either woefully misinformed about the actual capabilities of ABM or falseflagging. ABM can certainly affect the targeting of nuclear weapons (Oppenheimer could explain this a lot better if he was still around) but it would do next to nothing to dent a full exchange. The vatniks know this, in every other thread they'd be shitposting about how pathetic American ABM is compared to glorious Russian missiles.

>>31812600
You're literally retarded. If the U.S wanted, it'd launch nukes from SLBMs, anywhere in the world. or deliver them by strategic bomber/cruise missle
>>
>>31811435

It's a THAAD you moron; you can't use them to hit anything but aircraft in-flight, meaning the only way that they'd be able to hit anything was if China deliberately had its assets operational.

More worrying is the fact that the B-21's list of requirements is to be able to fly from Texas to Bejing in order to drop a Little Boy and back, yet China seems to be ignoring that.
>>
>>31813417

Holy shit. This level of delusion is astounding. Are you the same vatnik that was in the fighter thread earlier? I think you are. Are you going to start talking about production run migs?
>>
>>31813371
The chinks are paranoid that the US have or will have the capability of extending the THADD's range and mount explosive warheads on the missiles.
>>
>>31815731
If it is he's now in the ironic position of having to downplay Russian weapons in favor of American ones.

>Enthusiastic Hillary supporters (pic related) overwhelmingly vote for Clinton based on the presence (theoretically) of a vagina and *CURRENT YEAR* type of reasoning

>Hillary is owned and beholden to the interests of Neo-Cons and NWO-style globalists, who see the elimination of Russia and others as a sovereign state necessary to achieve a global plantation of cheap labour and liberal progressive values across the world

>AD 2017, war was beginning.

>Most military aged men (late stage millennials) are either NEETs, fat, chronic drug users or suffer from other psychological problems caused by single mother households.

>Women and SJWs are conscripted into service to fill the shortfall in recruitment. After all, it's CURRENT YEAR and no longer will straight White men carry the entire military burden

>Frontlines in the war have stabilized around Minsk and Eastern Ukraine

>War devolves into attrition mode after early American successes, heavy use of tube and rocket artillery by Russians as American conventional war capabilities have atrophied fighting pointless desert policing ops.

>Body parts of SJWs and feminists, along with numales and the Mexicans imported to fight in the war litter the battlefields of Ukraine and Eastern Poland, ground into the winter mud and churned up by mechanized forces and artillery, turning the ground into a purple-brown jelly of entrails and wet clay.

>One war photographer comes to blog about American success, but accidentally films someone's intestines getting caught in the running gear of a Bradley fighting vehicle rolling past

>The Romanian capital was hit by a stray missile, and their government capitulated and renounced NATO

>Poland fulfills her historic role as disposable cannon fodder is reduced to Neolithic conditions
