#1 Since the USN itself is debating the 21st Century, SPAWAR, Post-WOT utility of CVN21 through-deck Carriers, perhaps Russia should consider "GOING HYBRID" itself as per BATTLESPACE MANAGEMENT = FUTURE NAVAL CONCEPTS, plus course the propsed OWG-NWO "1000-Flags/Nations" INTER-NATION GLOBAL NAVY [Humanitarian, "Police Action"].

#2 Wasn't it a couple of weeks ago the Russians said they weren't interested in a new cold war. Now they are talking about missiles that's only purpose is to attack Western nations.

#6 So if they can't nuke europe, they got nothin?
Sounds like somebody needs about cooperation, instead of bullying. All bullies wake up one day and realize they are not as young and strong as they used to be, and they live in fear of how they will get by when they can't MAKE people do what they need them to do anymore. It causes a great deal of anxiety and insecurity to the bully.
