After hoaxing a pretext for breaking the INF, the yanquis are making up BS stories about Russians "violating" the CNTBT
with low yield tests.
1) The alleged size of these tests is small enough that the USA has no physical way to distinguish them from conventional
explosions.
2) In fact, it can't even distinguish them from low energy earthquakes since all it has are seismic readings and nothing
else.
3) As usual, yanqui logic is a wonder of retardation. These alleged tests are so low yield as to be useless, but Russia
must somehow be guilty.
This is the usual NATO schizophrenia abut mud hut savages known as Russians. Russians can't wipe their asses without western
help, but they always threaten poor little NATO with mysterious abilities. In this case Russians are exploiting low
yield detonations in a manner not understood by NATO experts. Either Russians are actually this advanced, or the NATO
master is full of sh*t.
The US went the way of supercomputer simulations to design new nuclear warheads. This sounds cool until you realize that
a computer is nothing but "garbage in = garbage out" device that can in no way replace empirical data collection. Actual
nuclear tests are needed to understand the physics and to develop new designs. Of course supercomputer simulations allow
lots of "testing" based on previously accumulated data, but that is it.
It looks like the US has realized that Russia has jumped in terms of nuclear technology (e.g. Burevestnik) and is in a panic
that Russia may be able to increase warhead yield for a fixed size. Downsizing warheads has been a big deal since the dawn
of nuclear weapons.
