RUSSIA + PAKISTAN: Joint Nuclear Test

Russia and Pakistan on Friday announced that they had successfully test fired nuclear missiles.

Russia successfully test-fired a large long-range missile on Friday whose future as a mainstay of its nuclear arsenal has been clouded by past failures.

The military said the 12-metre (40-foot) long, multiple-warhead Bulava missile -- Russian for 'Mace' -- was fired from the atomic-powered submarine Yuri Dolgoruky in the White Sea in northwestern Russia.

Last "joint nuclear test", as I recall, was around this time last year involving UK and France...
but Russia and US's new enemy Pakistan??...

What's the point of a nuclear test?

One can only assume a test is to make sure they're fully armed and operational when they need to be.

What that means, is another story.

I got from the articles that they fired the missiles to test them, but they were not armed with the nuclear warheads.
Just my take.

Of course they were not armed , these missiles have dummy components of the same weight and size just no fissionable material. The test is to simulate all other aspects of a true launch just no boom .

I said that because the other posters were acting like they thought the missiles WERE armed.
Simple common sense would tell one otherwise...

Umm, it wasn't a joint test, it was 2 separate tests from 2 separate Countries. Makes you wonder though, everyone's building up their arsenal while U.S. is tearing their's down. The Cold War never really ended.

Ummmm two points:

A: IT WASNT A NUCLEAR TEST

B: IT WASNT A JOINT TEST


People PLEASE think before you start posting stuff. ATS doesnt have much credibility as it is and then i see this stuff?

to see if it goes boom not bang when used, see what the real yield is a 10 meg could be a 7 meg or that 10 meg could be a 17 meg.

My mistake, but it DOES say it was missile test that could carry nuclear weapons..

That's what I was saying...

If Russia wanted to test distance of their missiles and the landed in Pakistan, wouldn't that be a joint-agreement?"......

Thanks for the thread. s/f for the effort always. I have a bad feeling about the events in recent times concerning the Governments / Super Powers around the world. . The Russians, Americans, Chinese Etc are all interested in getting off the planet. The test firing of rockets could almost be interpreted as a "Warm Up" against countries and the people of the planet that are not on the "Round Trip" rocket flights. I feel the traitors that sold out The US are already promised a seat and they don't care about America or The People and are just biding thier time. Nothing else could explain the behavior of This Joke of line of puppets and liars and thier Whores ..

WHAT??? Youre saying the Russian missiles tested landed in Pakistan? Good grief.

THESE WERE TWO SEPERATE EVENTS-NOT A JOINT TEST!!!!!

Where in the article did you see it was a "joint" test? These were not nuclear tests, they were testing missiles THAT ARE CAPABLE of carrying nuclear warheads.

I got thrown off by this below... Soviet Nuclear Test in Pakistan.. They have their own nukes, why test Russian ones?

Make sense now?

Do you honestly believe that they are tearing down their nukes? And if they are, do you honestly believe they would do so without some sort of contingency plan, ie a more advanced weapon?

reply to post by CALGARIAN
only if this is in Pakistan

Its warheads hit the target area on the Kamchatka peninsula some 6,000 km (3,700 miles) to the east, Defence Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said.

the missile was launched from a sub in the white sea

The military said the 12-metre (40-foot) long, multiple-warhead Bulava missile -- Russian for 'Mace' -- was fired from the atomic-powered submarine Yuri Dolgoruky in the White Sea in northwestern Russia.

Um, yeah, it was in the papers and news the other day how the U.S. dismantled their biggest bomb from the Cold War. Of course they have other means of delivering a payload, but just saying.

I also think that it's illegal in this day and age to test any nuclear detonations above ground. They can only be done either through simulation or several meters under ground. IIRC!
