Say the first one manages to put a crater in the russian countryside, do they try to launch nine more just to play the odds? Say one does get loose..what's it gonna do if it -also- makes it to target, hit ukraine? Seen any pictures of their towns lately, do they seem unwilling to die fighting the russian eradication plan? Fuck their nukes, what a shitty way to determine geopolitical realities.
As shitty as it is, it's the only way to ensure no one attacks you. The Ukrainian sure regret giving up the ones they inherited in the 90s.
