5 minutes

only 5 minutes? sad. our military is working with elon musk in conjunction with starlink to create the first orbital laser defense grid. once it is online all nations will surrender to the united states and those that dont will be systematically vaporized from space by unmanned orbital laser satellites. we are also working on an orbital mirror array that can direct huge amounts of sunlight precisely on one spot on the earth's surface, effectively acting like a large scale heat laser, which will be more effective at wiping out large swaths of entire battalions. your men are still banging rocks together while we are reaching for the stars.

and only 2 minutes to unmount a toilet

good thing I don't live in a city then

Somebody posted that Russian hypersonic missile attack, it was freaky, a streak of light and 2 sonic booms.
Fuck this shit, surrender Ukraine, don't even bother you got no chance.

What's taking so long ?

They need to keep the cattle in a disoriented stress state

Ok, end it all, nobody will be around to care

>ICBMs are hypersonic and have been a threat since the 60s. Why should we be afraid of these new missiles?
ICBM RV's take a predictable coasting arc/path and can be intercepted. Hypersonics fly a guided path and can dodge defenses and they speed up and slow down, making them impossible to intercept with existing ABM systems.

It's all about nuking military bases, bridges, silos, ports, train hubs
If there's a city conveniently placed near the tactical target oh well
MAD isn't the main focus of modern nuclear warfare and with modern doctrine nuclear wars can be survived and won

>5 minutes.
More lies from scaremongering propagandists, do you remember Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction.... 40 minutes etc from tony bliar.

Use one on a place nobody really gives a shit about - like salt lake city.

Thank God

>Use one on a place nobody really gives a shit about - like salt lake city.
Blue cities can be sacrificed, I'm willing, if it has to happen.

why would anybody nuke a city bigger?
+nuclear missile silos
+military installations
+communications
+HQ's various types
+power grid (emp's most likely though)
after the power goes out a city would have 2 months (?) of food left...

Mass drivers. Rods of God.

>shoot 6 hypersonic missiles worth a decade of russia GDP
You already broke your country once trying to keep up with Apollo. Just stick to your small arms and subterfuge...you know the shit youre really good at?

Missiles are actually pretty cheap for Russia. Americans don't realize that 90% of an american missile is contractor waste fraud and abuse and the remaining 10% is the tech itself.
