| Update on KrasMash Fire |
| 2019-05-04 |
| April 26, 2019: In Siberia, large portions of the KrasMash manufacturing complex exploded and burned. It was feared this might delay production of liquid-fueled ballistic missiles and satellite launchers. The most notable missile built at KrasMash is the RS-28 (SS-x-30 or Satan 2) heavy ICBM which has passed recent test firings and is on schedule to enter service in 2021. It was later revealed that the explosion and fires were at the portion of the complex that manufactures consumer goods (refrigerators). The missile production areas were unaffected. |

Interwar German humor on cheating the Versailles Treaty: "If you disassemble a Krupp baby carriage you can only put it back together as a heavy machine gun..." |
