Like I said in the other thread, we test fire 1-3 per year.

The timing doesn’t give you pause though?

An infant Rebel lived on Vandenberg.

This hits really close to home for me.

I take it you’ve never looked into how much testing we do at PMRF…

Not really. It's probably been scheduled for months. I'm glad they didn't delay readiness tests if I'm being honest.

Jesus Christ you nutter. Vandenberg is a missile base. It’s their primary function for the last 60 years. There are launches there all of the time.

What nuclear tipped weapon isn’t a doomsday missile?

The Tsar Bomba was tested by Russia in 1961, it had nearly 4,000, thats right 4,000 times the power of Hiroshima. Now that was a big deal (pun intended), the aforementioned test, not so much.

You know they tested that thing in the Artic, wonder if that is where the global alarmists purposely tested the artic melt so they could prove global warming.

Trump is showing what we are. We have had pussies running the country for years. Time to get everyone back in line.

I'm sure everyone has seen this clip, but if you haven't it explains the quote above from a movie role.

We test these multiple times a year. I bet this has been planned for months, if not years on a schedule. Do you think a general just woke up, stretched, yawned and said "Ah let's go ahead and test one of our ICBMs today". That's not how this works. There's not a random guy out there with a milwaukee popping the nuclear tip off a missle 20 minutes before launch.

The process involves:

-Randomly selecting a missile from one of the three wings
-Partially disassembling it in the silo
-Trucking it across the country to Vandenberg
-Reassembling it in a test silo
-Pre-launch checks, instrumentation, and coordination with the Reagan Test Site at Kwajalein Atoll
-International notifications (Hague Code of Conduct, Russia)

But yeah let's do that in a few days/weeks.
