Strategic and tactical nuclear forces can have the same targets.



One historical thing in the Ukraine conflict is the first time in history the world convicts attack that is made by a permanent member of the Security Council and holds a powerful nuclear arsenal. Russia's nuclear stockpile is very impressive. That is 5977 nuclear warheads. 

And NATO has about 100 B-61 nuclear bombs in Europe. That might not seem very much. But the NATOs 5th. generation F35 Lightning II stealth fighter-bombers survivability is better than Russians.

That means those fast-flying-low observable stealth aircraft can attack deep inside Russian territory. And if the nuclear weapons are used against Russian nuclear bases that can decrease Russia's capacity to use their nuclear weapons. 

Fast-flying stealth fighters can use for strategic purposes as well as in tactical missions. The thing that limits the use of those systems is the airborne refueling capacity. And if one nuclear bomb drops on Moscow that causes very large destruction. 

The thing with nuclear systems is that strategic weapons can have a tactical role. And otherwise, a tactical nuke can also use against enemy strategic installations. The deep penetrating stealth aircraft can operate in both roles. Or strategic nuclear weapons with low-yield warheads can also hit the enemy troops that are near the frontline.

Heavy cargoplanes can transport military equipment to the frontline from thousands of kilometers in a couple of hours. 

The thing is that strategic and tactical nuclear weapons have no certain border. 15 kt. nuclear weapon can use in both missions.

And the question is always this. Is some military pit located thousands of kilometers from the frontline strategic or tactical target? What if that base supports strategic bombers or jet fighters that are operating at the frontline thousands of kilometers away from their base tactical or strategic target?

The key element is logistics. What if somebody loads hyper loops with troops and ammunition? Those extremely fast trains can transport people and cargo. Same way, they can transport military equipment. 

Heavy cargo planes and bullet trains are connecting factories from thousands of kilometers to the frontline. So that means even if the military base is thousands of kilometers away from conflict troops can travel very fast to the frontline. And that thing obscures the border between strategic and tactical targets.

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.

 Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.  The modern Hounds of Baskerville ABW:s (Advanced biological weapons are the modern Hounds of Baskerville. The term ABV means the animal which is genetically engineered. And which is controlled by using some interactive electronic systems. There is a possibility to connect the action camera to dogs collars. And transmit commands to that animal by using electronic systems. Spoken words can use to the commands.  Or they can be a series of sounds that are stored in the sound files. When the operator activates a certain file that sound means a certain command to the animals. There is the possibility to automatize some commands by connecting the system to the image recognition tool. When the action camera sees something that is stored in the memory of the computer. That system sends the coded order to the animal.  Nanotechnology and genetic engineering are the most lethal combination in the world. The ABW:s (Advanced Biological ...

Facebook and dominance of the media.

The position of Facebook is dominating and that causes concern. Facebook is a well-known and commonly used service. And that thing causes that the information is starting to pile up in that service. That information contains data that we might want to hide. Facebook is a network-based service that can use for many purposes from marketing to intelligence.  Facebook was down and the thing cost about half a million dollars per hour to that service. That shutdown has shown how dominating that service has been growing. Facebook is a powerful tool. It can use to track the networks of people.  Artificial intelligence can show the network map of the people who are using that service. The data that travels between certain members of the network can show how often those people are contacting each other. There is a lot of criticism against Facebook but the fact is that everybody is using that thing.  The attitudes toward Facebook are conflicting. People are criticizing that service ...
