How current world affairs will end, WW3

[GAMES]

Gamer if they use a few weapons Europe and North America as a whole would be fucked. The only safe place would be Africa , Argentina and Australia but these crazy fucks have thousands of Nuclear weapons they can destroy humanity over and over again if they want to

I dunno, because in apocalyptic movies, there are always survivors. So I don't think everyone would die. Maybe 70% of the population, but def not everyone.

LoL u just a need CUNTO, BIYO, and just guns (and plenty of it) to make it through.

Pentagon steps up plan for long-range anti-ship missile
MILITARY INTELLIGENCE
Ray Locker, USA TODAY 2:27 p.m. EDT March 18, 2014

The Pentagon is making another deposit in its surge to build an arsenal of long-range missiles aimed at breaking down the defenses of potential adversaries, such as China and Iran.

Friday, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) filed a request for permission to extend the research for the long-range, anti-ship missile for two years worth $175 million to Lockheed Martin, which has led the research into the missile development since 2009.

That follows the Obama administration's defense budget request this month for 224 long-range Joint Air to Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM) missiles worth $353 million. Those missiles use much of the same technology as the anti-ship missile would, military records show.

STORY: Big losers and sleek winners in the Pentagon budget

Both missiles are meant to counter what are called anti-access, area-denial weapons developed by China and other nations that are meant to make it difficult for U.S. ships to get too close to their shores. The Pentagon's quadrennial defense review, which was released this month, cites the JASSM and anti-ship missiles as key components of the plan to minimize the anti-access, area-denial threats.

DARPA conducted two successful tests of the missile last August and November, records show.

By 2018, the military hopes to deploy the anti-ship missiles on a B-1 bomber and on an F-18 the following year, DARPA records show. DARPA plans to finish its research work and transfer the program to the Navy in fiscal year 2016, which starts Oct. 1, 2015.

Switching contractors from Lockheed Martin could cost $132 million and set the program back 60 months, the DARPA document shows.

The missile "fills the most urgent air-launched requirement, significantly reduces Joint Force war fighting risks and positions [the Pentagon] to address evolving surface warfare threats," DARPA says.

Actually China has recently innovated a new missile that can break and by pass the US nuclear defense-systems.

Anti Missile won't do anything, since most nuclear missiles carry MIRV's. These ICBM's have multiple nuclear war heads that break up before they enter the atmosphere. And even if u take out 1 or 2, couple more would get through. That's why the US hasnt worked on that as much. Cuz the Russians would just jam more warheads into each missile.

This is a problem for current technology, i am talking about a game changer.
current anti-missile programs are like trying to hit a bullet with another bullet, mirvs will always negate this.
Imagine a shotgun with dozens of pellets saturating an area, now imagine this scaled up with larger aerodynamic projectiles in a swarm pointed upwards and travelling at more than 15,000 m per second.

why try to hit a missile with another missile? why not blanket 50m square area of the sky with metal travelling at 15km per second an inescapable thing.
There are no counter measures if your missile breaks into several smaller missiles they will all be hit.
Even stealth is affected, because nothing is really stealth even the F-22 returns a radar crosssection of marble, older radars will still see this but cannot distinguish it from static. Modern AESA radars will see it clearly when its less than 50km range, they will see something the size of a marble 12mmto 22mm tiny, but they cannot track it or use it to guide missiles.

Infra red technology is improving faster and within 50km you will definatley be able to track and hit an F-22,
then comes sensor fusion, i.e combining the inmput from different radars on the ground and in the air with infra red tracking and fuzzy logic/AI
then stealth is no longer stealth.

you just have to program your computers not to ignore tiny metal marbles in the air, they dont belong there its definatley a stealth plane.
no need to worry about calculating a firing solution, just blanket the entire suspected area with metal pellets if you suspect anything.


This means that not only are ballistic missiles reduced in effectiveness but you make most aircrafts useless too,
we are back to another golden age for artillery, and infantry.
The technology of war has always been going in circles with defense sometimes having and advantage then its offense .
Whoever loses the anti-missile race will end up a nuclear wasteland.

I expect the west to fire first if they get an advantage, but China is neck and neck with the US and Europe in this new technology.

The next 2 decades will be very interesting..

It would be waste of warheads to blow up major cities just because of its population size. Most of these weapons would logically be aimed at military assets that can retaliate. So if you live nearby military installations then you should worry incase of nuclear attack not else. Besides these weapons are not what some are making them out to be. Sure they are destructive but claims like they would kill the whole human race is simply exaggerations and holds no water in the factual world.
