The Russians have been absolutely obsessed with rockets and missiles and guns ever since mid WW2. You can tell this by looking at their Destroyers and Frigates, how they bristle with them. You wonder if they have enough ammunition to fire all of them and keep them going. Or are they there to intimidate? Here are just a few shots from my archives on the subject. I will add to it periodically.7750775177567754775577527753

The over and under Gatling set up looks so futuristic!
First time I've seen a VLS system built into the flight deck of a carrier.
Thats one hell of a way to disrupt flight ops.

These futuristic looking tanks are actually from a Russian movie about the future.

Wake up, America! It's once again 1938 and we find ourselves again asleep at the switch as a European power prepares for a war of expansion and resource acquisition.
Our government/Navy does not have the balls to shoot off ordnance in a harbor -- a sign of our caution and fear of our own technology. A little more 'wild west' and a lot less 'caution' from our elected officials and military leadership will save the day.
The world is not a nice place, we should stop trying to make ass-hole countries like us. Fear would be just fine.
How's that hope and change working out for you guys?

While America Sleeps, degenerates, becomes ever more self-indulgent, and contemplates it's navel...
Russia gets her weapons AND people ... ready.
While American's become fat and ever more self-involved, the Russian Bear shakes off its recent flirtation with Capitalism and once again looks outward with greedy eyes.
While we do our best to feminize our young boys, they steer their kids toward the duties and things of men.
What was that Cold-War about, again?!.....

I am concerned. I thought that the SEEWIZ Phalanx 20mm gatling gun close in weapon system that was introduced by the US Navy was the most awesome thing that I had ever seen. Radar directed and depleted uranium heavy penetrator rounds pushed thru a gatling gun. Well of course the Russians take that idea and double up. If one 20mm gun is the American choice then they go 30mm times two and throw in some SAM missiles to boot and then they put it on everything and en mass. Well thats understandable but I dont see the American responce!

Yes, you would think that there would be a speed restriction with all that stuff on there. I also wonder what there success ratio is with all there missiles. If they launch ten missiles, how many would actually hit?

Agreed! Each State or Federal execution performed deep within the walls of a prison facility is a teaching opportunity lost to the citizens.
