Blah, blah, blah.

"Our current weapons work ...well,... ok... they didn't work. But NEXT
year,
we're going to have the BEST weapons IN THE WORLD!"

So, Michael, tell us all how fabulous the tests and exercises went, so
we can
compare your squat with what really happened. The "largest military
exercise
in 20 years" appears to have been a gigantic flop, but in grand Soviet
tradition, the smoking ruins of the tests are used as 'proof' of
success! Cling
to those fantasies with both hands, chum, cuz they are slipping away.

One RSM54 missile failed. There will be investigation of the event
which will find the reason and fix it. Nothing special, but
new manoeuvring warheads go to service. Tell me better what
are you going to do with new manoeuvring warheads.

Nothing at all. The missiles they sit on will fail to launch.

Actually a few will launch and will self destruct.
