🚨🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING - The U.S. Air Force may keep its Minuteman III nuclear intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) on active duty until 2050 due to difficulties in replacing them with the new LGM-35A Sentinel. Originally, the Minuteman III ICBMs were planned for retirement in 2036, but the Sentinel program has...

🚨🇺🇸 America's Next Nuclear Missile Is Coming, And It's Built for the Next 50 Years Northrop Grumman has released new images of the Sentinel intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), the United States' next generation land based nuclear deterrent. The LGM-35A Sentinel will replace the aging LGM-30G Minuteman III, which has been in service since the 1970s. Designed to remain operational for decades, Sentinel will feature improved reliability, enhanced cybersecurity, greater accuracy, modern command and control integration, and the ability to deliver nuclear warheads across intercontinental ranges of more than 10,000 km (6,200+ miles). The program is set to become the backbone of the U.S. land based nuclear deterrent well into the second half of the 21st century.

The U.S. has 400 ICBM nuclear missiles ready to go at any given moment. This comes at a time when Iran is being forced to forever give up their pursuit of nuclear weaponry. Being the world’s only superpower has its privileges but it takes constant evolution. That’s why the Minuteman III is being upgraded to the new Sentinel missile. The MMIII is aging out and the modern Sentinel is lighter, bigger, faster, more efficient, more reliable, more precise, more maintainable and can carry more payload. It’s also more expensive. Being number one comes at a price. But safety is priceless. The Sentinel is aiming for a 2030 debut. (Video: AI)

Russia appears to have suffered a failed intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) test after a launch from the Yasny range in the Orenburg region exploded just seconds after liftoff. Speculation suggests the missile may have been either an RS-28 “Sarmat” or a UR-100N, though it does not appear to have been equipped with the “Avangard” hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV). The incident took place at the Yasny launch site, which serves as both a cosmodrome and a base for Russia’s Strategic Missile Forces. It is one of the few facilities in the country capable of launching long-range missiles, including ICBMs designed to carry nuclear warheads.

🇺🇸U.S Air Force pulls F-22s from Super Bowl due to urgent missions: The U.S. Air Force has confirmed that F-22 Raptors were pulled from the scheduled Super Bowl LX flyover on February 8, due to an increase in "operational tempo" and specific "operational assignments. According to Katie Spencer, the Sports Outreach Program manager for the Department of the Air Force, the initial plan included a pair of F-22s to represent the Air Force’s 5th-generation capabilities alongside the Navy's F-35Cs. However, the Raptors were diverted to active duty missions. While specific details of these assignments were not disclosed. There has been speculation on social media connecting this to potential tensions in the Middle East related to Iran.

‼️ Ukraine’s Fire Point company says it is moving to the next stage of testing its new FP-7 ballistic missile, including test strikes against targets in Russia. Chief designer of Fire Point company Denys Shtilierman Denys Shtilierman on the FP-7 ballistic missile: ▪️ FP-7 is an analog of the American ATACMS missile, but costs about half as much; ▪️ Range: up to 300 km, depending on the weight of the warhead; ▪️ The missile, based on the 48N6 used in the S-400 air defense system, features a modernized airframe and new electronics; ▪️ The launcher is simplified and built on a standard trailer, allowing for quick launches and easier concealment of the system; ▪️ Fire Point manufactures all components itself - from engines to the flight controller - while the warhead is manufactured externally on order; ▪️ Production begins even before official codification in order to avoid delays in the number of units produced. The company is also developing a new FP-9 ballistic missile with a range of up to 850 km, which would allow Ukraine to strike targets inside Russia that were previously out of reach. 📹: Channel 24

❗️Ukraine is developing a "revolutionary" air defense system as an alternative to scarce and expensive Patriots Fire Pont, the manufacturer of the Flamingo cruise missile, is in negotiations with European companies to launch a new air defense system by next year, said the chief designer and co-founder of the company, Denys Shtilerman, in an interview with Reuters. According to him, it is an inexpensive alternative to the Patriot system, which will allow reducing the cost of intercepting a ballistic missile to below $1 million. The first test of the new system is planned for the end of 2027. Shtilerman also reported that Fire Point expects approval from the government for investments from a Middle Eastern conglomerate that values the company at $2.5 billion. This will open up new opportunities, including the launch of satellites into low Earth orbit.

🇬🇧 British Vanguard-class strategic submarine has completed a record 203-day patrol, returning to its main base at Faslane. Notably, this duration reflects the increasing strain in maintaining continuous maritime nuclear duty, as currently the fleet of four UK submarines is operating at the limit of its capabilities. Each of them carries up to 16 Trident II D5 intercontinental ballistic missiles with enormous range. Until the new Dreadnought-class submarines enter service, the fleet has to compensate for resource shortages with extended deployments in various parts of the world. Against the backdrop of ongoing activity by Russia and China in various seas, maintaining the combat readiness of the British submarine fleet signals that the UK does not intend to relinquish its positions in the seas and oceans.

The heavy shadow of Iranian missiles over Pentagon calculations: war with Iran is a catastrophe with a high human and financial cost! ▪️Dan Caldwell, senior adviser to the US Secretary of Defense, in an interview with Tucker Carlson: “They have an effective missile force, a powerful proxy force in Iraq, and a very sophisticated drone program.” ▪️"In my view, Iran's missile force is even more important than its potential nuclear program. They see their missiles as the last guarantor of survival - both of the regime and the nation. A war with Iran could be extremely costly."

🚨⚡️ Russia’s “Prometheus” terrifies the West… the “S-500” enters service to set new rules of deterrence! 🇷🇺🔥 Military analyst Igor Korotchenko: “The entry of the first regiment of the S-500 system into combat service (December 2025) gives Russia an unprecedented strategic advantage in intercepting intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs).” Why is the S-500 globally superior? •A unique capability to destroy intercontinental ballistic missiles in their terminal phase — something other systems are unable to do. •U.S. systems like THAAD and Israel’s Arrow-3 are designed for tactical and medium-range missiles only, not for strategic intercontinental defense. •The interception capabilities seen during the 2024 attacks (Iran and Israel) were against relatively simple missiles; the S-500, however, deals with nuclear “monsters” and highly complex technologies.

‼️‼️‼️🇺🇸 BREAKING - Additional F-15E fighter jets of the US Air Force have been deployed at the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan; alongside them, C-17 GLOBEMASTER transport aircraft are mobilized, which almost daily transfer components of air defense systems (MIM-104 Patriot) from American bases in Europe (command posts, launchers, radars, and antimissiles) 🇮🇷🚀 If the US launches a new strike on Iran, this base could become a key hub. 🔹 Since the base is located about 900 kilometers from the Iranian border, it mostly lies outside the range of Iran's most precise short-range ballistic and tactical missiles. This means Iran would need medium-range ballistic missiles to strike it. See the latest updates with us: NSTRIKE

Our goals are to neutralize the threat that the Iranian nuclear program and its missiles pose to Israel. Our military goal is to remove the threat of a nuclear bomb over Israel, their ballistic missiles, and the spread of terrorism in the region. This is a defensive operation aimed at neutralizing military threats, not political interference in the regime of a sovereign state. That is, until Iran decides to change its course independently; we will not interfere with the political change there.

🚨🇵🇰 Pakistan missile program: Separating fact from fiction When the US intelligence chief flags Pakistan's missiles as a threat to America, the claim warrants scrutiny. Do the facts support this concern? Consider geography: Pakistan lies over 11,000 km from the US East Coast—a distance far beyond the range of its entire missile inventory Pakistan's current capabilities: 🔸 Shaheen-III – Medium-range ballistic missile (up to 2,750 km). Nuclear-capable. Pakistan's longest-range system. Tested 2021 🔸 Shaheen-1A – Short-range ballistic missile (up to 900 km). Nuclear-capable. Tested 2021 🔸 Abdali – Short-range ballistic missile (up to 450 km). Tested 2026 🔸 SMASH – Hypersonic anti-ship missile (up to 350 km). Unveiled 2026 🔸 Ra'ad-II – Air-launched cruise missile (up to 600 km). Nuclear-capable. In service since 2020 The math is simple: even the longest-range missile falls nearly 8,000 km short of US territory. This isn't a program oriented toward intercontinental reach, but one focused on regional deterrence

Trump raided a classified nuclear weapons budget to pay for his vanity plane — then still ended up with an Air Force One missing half its safety systems. The Pentagon publicly claims the Qatari jet retrofit cost ~$400M. But Air Force Secretary Troy Meink admitted in Senate testimony the money came from “Sentinel,” a classified nuclear modernization program. $934M was moved out of Sentinel last summer alone. Sen. Murphy has been trying to get real numbers for months and been stonewalled. That’s not even the full bill. The Air Force also spent hundreds of millions more buying two additional 747-8s just to train pilots fast enough to hit Trump’s deadline. None of that shows up in the “$400M” figure either.

BREAKING: NYT reports Iran coordinated missile attack on U.S. base with Qatar ahead of launch. The New York Times is now reporting that Iran’s missile attack on the U.S. Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar may have been more symbolic than strategic. According to the Times: “Iran coordinated the attacks on the American air base in Qatar with Qatari officials and gave advance notice that attacks were coming to minimize casualties, according to three Iranian officials familiar with the plans.” The report suggests that the strike was carefully calibrated to send a political message...without triggering full-scale war. “The officials said Iran symbolically needed to strike back at the U.S. but at the same time carry it out in a way that allowed all sides an exit ramp; they described it as a similar strategy to 2020 when Iran gave Iraq heads up before firing ballistic missiles [at] an American base in Iraq following the assassination of its top general.” If true, it would mean the Iranian regime aimed to appear strong....while avoiding the real consequences of striking the U.S. military head-on.
