No illusion here bro...Russia doesn't even have a properly functioning aircraft carrier. They also don't have the shipbuilding facilities to build any new ones. The last one was built in Ukraine.

I will only state this.
You mentioned aircraft carriers as an example, but the hard truth is in fact that such equipment are only truly necessary IF a country wishes to move substantial amounts of it's military assets far away from home to be within striking distance of an enemy in preparation for times of war. Their current lack of an aircraft carrier that you might think of as a weakness is in fact a very telling sign. A sign that Russia has no desires or intentions to engage in conflicts outside it's borders unless it absolutely must, & in which case if they must they will make full use of their other assets, & you can bet they do actually have substantial very effective alternatives that compensate for the lack of one type of vessel.
Note I mentioned current lack of an aircraft carrier . It won't stay that way for long, because it's already being addressed & it's not only an aircraft carrier being built either. Several nuclear powered (& iirc armed) subs are being built as well, & I believe some are actually in active service right now.



but feel free to believe whatever you wish.

This fixation about whose button is bigger is the stuff tragic comedies are made of.
Really, the so called world leaders who are pre-occupied with nukes count need to avail themselves to professional help.

it's armed forces iz old and decrpit. it has nukes, but USA has more.

it's navy is sheit.

and its army could beat Ukraine's but not NATO's. or even China's.

and it's cultural reach....there's vodka, but the biggest vodka brand in the world is British......

Not sure what you are talking about.

You are correct Russia GDP is sh!t, has corruption, too many drunks etc etc etc

However Russia doesn't need a Navy because its best defense is its large land mass among many air defense which they have the best in the world.

Russia has the most tanks in the world for land defense again.

Russia has the most ICBM nukes and they are more advanced than that of the US.

Why are we even talking about nukes? Nukes can't be used. Stop talking about nukes. Nukes serve one purpose in the world today and that is to be a deterrent.

We're removing the nuclear options from the table so how are they going to expand the the Russian Empire if they can't move a large amount of assets? What are they going to use? A new aircraft carrier costs 10 billion usd. The only thing that they have as a deterrent are the nukes. Some of you all act almost as though Russians are not humans. How far west can you honestly believe Russia can march. Russia can't successfully take on NATO in a conventional war. Remember wars are also won by convincing the minds of the citizens. How many Russians you honestly believe are willing to fight and die for Putin? Russia is a very fragmented state. Very fragmented.

Russia doesn't have more advanced anything that the US.

A lot of their tanks are also old and out of date.

Russia's military assets are also old and out of date. Things are literally falling apart.

China is more technologically advanced than Russia.

We can all agreed that countries such as Russia, China, USA etc could never be fully conquered because of the size of their countries.

When you don't know anything about a topic you should be quiet as not to look like a fool

Russia has the most advanced Nuclear ICBMs in the world and you would have to be a complete retard to think that the T90 tank is outdated

The only thing that is dog sh!t in the Russian Federation is its Navy

As a matter of fact as we speak the Satan 2 is being developed

What surprises me is that a few people here in Trinidad think they can evaluate Russia based on US media facts.

They ignore that Russia always in the US, and EU radar....for some reason.

It is actually confirmed that Russia has more nuclear ICBMs than anyother country on earth even CNN admitted this, CNN of all media outlets.

People in Trinidad does simply parrot this rubbish that Hillary was saying about how Russian military is rusted junk, little do they know just how much money Putin pumped into this military

Are you daft? They have over 11000 nuclear weapons and are viewed as hostile by the parties you mentioned? What other reason you think they are on US and EU radar? Steupssss

How many Russians you honestly believe are willing to fight and die for Putin? Russia is a very fragmented state. Very fragmented.


Now you have me more than a little curious. Where'd you find the thought that Russia intends or would like to intend to expand the Russian Empire? :lol: From what I've seen all Vladimir really looking to do is stabilize & strengthen his country & keep nosy foreigners out of Russian affairs, & make a few alliances if he can along the way. Completely normal behavior, not just for Russia, but any nation serious about its survival.

Now, just because a sub is nuclear powered it doesn't automatically equate to the idea that is has to carry nuclear weapons. Some of them will, yes, & some of them won't, & what is mobilized & utilized will depend on the threat or preceding act or purpose at the point in time. And nuclear weapons, though the least likely arms to be used, whether seen as a deterrent or not, cannot be removed from the equation. The only way to remove them from the equation is to remove them all from all nations, & that isn't happening any time soon because no matter how much you'd like to believe they only serve as a deterrent, they will be used in response to IF one country uses theirs first against another. If somebody kicks your teeth out, do you flay their hide with a single feather? I seriously doubt it. To believe they are not an option to any nation that possesses them is to live in denial of reality. If they were not an option they'd have all been silently disposed of & no one would possess them.

Another deterrent to invasion Russia has is their climate & terrain. In some parts of that country the weather alone is downright inhospitable to humans, & in others the terrain would stop an assault before it could even start.

They are a politically & economically fragmented nation, this is true. How many Russians are ready & willing to die for Putin you ask? I have no idea, but I doubt it's a lot. A lot of them do not want him where he is, & a good bit of them are happy with him.
If you were to ask how many Russians today are ready & willing to fight & die to protect their country for their family, I'd dare say more than a few.

Why are you still talking NUCLEAR...We have already established that just having nuclear capabilities doesn't make you a super power. We have taken the nuclear capabilities out of the discussion. Why are you still talking about about nukes and ICBMS.. BTW it doesn't matter if they have 10 or 10000 ICBMs because just a single use of one is world changing. Get a grip.

Russia's military is old rusted old junk. When the soviet collapsed, people were literally dying of hunger in the streets. Russia suffered with devastating poverty for years following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Of course that resulted in the military not getting sufficient spending to ensure that they remained up to date. That time lost can't be recovered hence countries such as China easily passed them in the ensuing years.

Image


The following countries are thought to possess nuclear weapons: USA, Russia, China, UK, France, India, Pakistan, North Korea, Israel.
The following countries used to possess nuclear weapons: South Africa, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine.

Can we please stop talking about nukes. Having nukes don't mean that you are a superpower. Get that thought out of your head.

88,

The nuclear option is removed from all countries that was the whole point of the debate. That is why I kept saying that countries such as India and pakistan also have nukes. Saudi Ariabia has access to Pakistan's nukes as well. So Nukes can't be the only determining factor for power projection. I know about nuclear submarines and nuclear capable submarines. A nuclear powered submarine can run for 30+ years without refueling due to nuclear power. That's a great capability but, they would have to resurface for resupplying etc or else they would starve. So that capability is only useful if the government doesn't fall and if the navy is in charge of the region etc. Wars are chaotic.

Vladimir wants to extend Russia's west. I think he is looking to reestablish Russian influence up to possibly Germany like in the old days. That way to get to Moscow, they would have to fight a couple proxies first. Remember Ukraine is on their doorstep and they are an ally of Nato etc. That is why there is so much conflict in the region. Its about reestablishing old influences. I also don't think many are willing to die for Russia. Russians are very disenfranchised and want change but are too afraid of the government to do anything about it. Apart from the cronies and people close to the Kremlin, it's basically hell to catch in Russia. That level of disenfranchisement can't be overlooked.

Russia has as nearly as many nuclear weapons as all other nations combined. That is enough to qualify Russia as having enough significant worldwide influence to qualify as a Superpower.

Good luck using all those nukes. Imagine being dumb enough to spend money on thousands of nukes when all ur probably need is 10?

Imagine being a "superpower" and having ur spies kick out of England. LMAO

That being said, does America still have a lot more soft power than China? Can China ever catch up?

In one dark corner, under a dimly let tent, you see a rusted down cressida sitting low with a fat bottom. Looks like it was fighting gravity and lost. You go for a closer look and see telltale 15x10 Weld racing wheels on some sticky slicks.
Other than that it looks normal.
pop the hood you see a gleaming, proper built brand new 1GZ with a pair of turbos larger than a bull's head, with top to bottom Top Secret regalia, handbuilt by Nagata himself. It fires up with barely a tumble, the steady burble of the thousands of miniature explosions exiting 6 inch side exit pipes. You feel the hairs on the back of your neck raise when a nondescript man, in nondescript clothes gently prods the accelerator pedal, much like a mother scolding a defiant infant, and the resultant fighter-jet whine starts building slowly.


Russia is that cressida.
Don't underestimate it.
