Just when will the western world come to accept the reality, continuing to push weapons and aggression at Russia over the ukraine conflict will continue to escalate, the final result will be large scale war in europe and likely north america.
Is this to be denied? did we ever consider that 'sanctions' and other medieval warfare practices would work in the modern world?
Does the west not realize they have inferior weapons and military equipment and standards when compared to basically all of the eastern world?
Russia and China have already called nato and usa terrorists, India called canada a terrorist very recently also.
Last year in december, when nato and usa laughed at the documents Russia presented, did anyone realize what the course of actions over the following years would be and what it would mean?
Are there people in the west that think there is an end game that results in the destruction of Russia and China and Iran and any other contenders? While the west prevails?
good luck hitting my laser defended missiles with your meaningless laser, don't matter, just cause you hit a thing with a laser, does not mean it has an effect.
Not to mention, mobility location range and all that lovely laser stuff.
You can’t defend a missile with a laser. You can, however, hit one with one.
That’s why you kick it up into the multiple megawatt range, powered by the nuclear engine on a carrier, et. al.
Sorry, you are still confused. many materials and coatings circumvent the capability of the laser, think reflection.
Lasers are not effective, you will need to wait for plasma weapons.
So change the wavelength of the laser to render the reflective surface moot. So increase the power of the laser to create temperatures above the sublimation point of the reflective material. It’s a piece of cake to bypass. When you’re dealing with lasers, you just increase the power or change the wavelength and the problem solves itself. Plasma weapons are a literal fantasy, and they’re definitionally slower than lasers or missiles.
Laser defense is the final word in national security. Only asteroid redirection or “rods from god” can defeat it, but at that point you’re fucking over your own nation as much as your enemy, so it becomes moot again.
Let me know when we have these lasers do something effective I will be happy to have a look.
From what I understand it is out of reach, we have some small ones deployed for showing how they work on 'perfect targets' but the world does not work like that.
I am of the impression lasers in warfare are a fantasy; I've not seen anything to convince me otherwise.
Russia I heard has some that will zap a satellite but I have no evidence of that, in any regard they likely have a massive power plant and are firmly attached to the ground.
