Putin watches his military prepare for Armageddon: Russian leader monitors simulated 'massive nuclear strike' as his forces carry out practice launch of ballistic and cruise missiles
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] I imagine lots of interested parties are watching closely and drawing various useful conclusions.
  • Russia carried out test launches of a Yars land-based ICBM and a Sineva ICBM launched from a nuclear sub

  • Team involved in the launch seen flicking switches and conforming to pre-launch protocol in the drills

  • The missiles were seen soaring into the air and disappearing into the clouds after they were launched

  • Vladimir Putin watched on the annual drills from the Kremlin intended to simulate a 'massive nuclear strike'

  • The Kremlin said all missiles that were test-fired reached designated targets

The missiles were seen soaring into the air and disappearing into the clouds like Jesus.

#2 Russia carried out test launches of a Yars land-based ICBM and a Sineva ICBM launched from a nuclear sub

...They had maybe 150 Yars and maybe 100 Sinevas deployed. Good luck getting those empty holes backfilled.

That didn't happen either.

#8  depending on the wind

At the latitude of Ukraine, the prevailing winds blow towards the east, which is to say towards Russia.
