Russian complex "Dead Hand" recognized as vulnerable to a US nuclear strike

The Russian complex "Dead Hand" revealed serious vulnerabilities.

Konstantin Sivkov, Deputy President for Information Policy of the Russian Academy of Missile and Artillery Sciences, said that the unique Russian complex for automatic control of a massive nuclear strike "Dead Hand", better known in Russia as "Perimeter", is currently one of the most vulnerable places ...

According to Sivkov, the complex of a retaliatory nuclear strike can be destroyed even before the relevant team arrives, and a number of doubts are caused by the effectiveness and efficiency of the complex’s systems - according to the expert, only ground systems and strategic aviation can receive a signal while the signal to the submarines may not reach.

“The control system is not fully guaranteed to ensure the application of a reciprocal, even reciprocal, counter. In this regard, there is a need to modernize the control system to increase the military stability of strategic nuclear forces- stressed Konstantin Sivkov.

In the USA, they are also skeptical that the Russian complex of an automatic nuclear retaliatory strike will be effective.

Again nonsense. The "Perimeter" complex is launched not from the command, but on the contrary - from the absence of the command! While all is well, "soothing" messages are constantly being sent to him. If everything collapses, then the "calming" signals will also be silenced. And then "Perimeter" will work! Enemies should be concerned about only one thing: so that Russia is doing well, so that She regularly soothes her "dead hand"!

Sivkov! The fact that the Perimeter is ineffective is known for years 15. But our bureaucrats, like ostriches head in the sand, and do not want to deal with this topic. Probably they have another citizenship and there is a lot of money and real estate. They do not need the defense of Russia. Or are they imbeciles? American secret hypersonic aerospace aircraft invisible to the radar TR-3B, in the number of 50-100 pieces intercept all the launched ICBM over enemy territory. And the Perimeter ICBM too. All submarines are tracked by a multi-layered US U.S. PLO system around the clock. Russia is defenseless and cannot even take revenge on the aggressor.
