snip otherwise good stuff

If they can't even launch two missiles under ideal peaceful conditions,
during a test planned and rehearsed several months in advance, then how
can
they be expected to perform under spontaneous wartime conditions? If
anything, I am far less concerned about Russian nuclear capability now
then
ever before.
