Classic Russian maskirovka.
There's a non-zero chance that some enterprising colonels sold all their nukes for scrap. Jokes aside, I wonder how many of them are viable.
Many of the tanks in the vaunted reserve park of Russian tanks have been found stripped of armor interstices, hence they're pretty useless -- as is shown in the Turret Launch Olympics.
I wonder how much of that same corruption has degraded Russian nuclear capability.
