Another arms race?

Here comes Russia, with a rather surprisingly honest admission that they’re trying to build missiles they can bomb us with:

MOSCOW (AP) – Russia’s military is planning to upgrade its missiles to allow them to evade American weapons in space and penetrate any prospective missile shield, a Russian general said Monday.

In comments to the Interfax news agency, Russia’s Strategic Missile Forces chief, Col.-Gen. Nikolai Solovtsov, as saying that Russia’s intercontinental ballistic missiles will be modernized to protect them from space-based components of the U.S. missile defense system.

As Bill points out, such races don’t historically end well for the Ruskies.

One thought on “Another arms race?”

  1. I dont think you noticed the failings in yesterday’s missile launch from VAFB. see LATimes. The ruskies know where the seam is.
    As for arms races…Russia isnt 11$ trillion in debt w/ highest unemployment claims in 34 years. RR thought debt was second to
    SDI, a concept he went to the podium w/ before even the other Allied nations were to approve. Debt is now taking its toll on Anglo-American financial front.
