    evacuating russians to sites that have bunkers and large planes that can carry nukes are in transit to places that have nukes is what I have gathered from the comments

    i'm currently in turkey, which means i'm either the first to go and don't have to watch the world go up in flames, or i'm close enough that russia shoots all their nukes over my head and i enjoy my trip in safety. win win!

    If it makes you feel any better all of these flights are taking place with their transponders on aka they want us to see them.

    Means it is likely posturing

    But at the same time wtf dude chill with the freaking nuke stuff. I'm hoping all of Putin's madness drives a wedge between them and China.

    If you want to amp your anxiety up then enjoy this map:

    Triangles are primary targets and basically for sure getting hit in any level of a nuclear exchange.

    Black Dots are secondary targets and would get hit if russia launched everything they had (which why wouldn't they?)

    So yea you in a triangle you ded (includes me)

    I'm a high ranking member of the nuke anxiety board of directors. But I also have to think that there's some sort of wild ass technology up our sleeve to deal with a massive icbm launch. There's most definitely military technology out there that we can't fathom.

    However, I'm very much team let's not find out.

    With how much we spend on defense, you'd have to think that's the case. If it's just get nuked and die. Idk. But yeah, let's not find out.

    This won’t help your anxiety at all, but most of our interceptor capabilities are only about 60-70% effective against conventional ICBMs, almost a non factor for hypersonic, but I also don’t know that they’ve got any hypersonics set up for nuclear capability. Even the famous iron dome is really only 85-90% effective and again, there hasn’t been much shown to be able to intercept or stop hypersonics. The best defense would be some sort of cyber attack to take down their targeting and ability to even launch, but that would be preemptive and wildly presumptuous in most cases.
