Given the let's create a tidal wave from a nuclear torpedo and sink the British Isles nonsense we saw on Russian TV a few weeks back it's pretty clear they're utterly clueless or at least pandering to some cartoonish version of how nukes work for domestic consumption. :D

The main viewers will be those in Russia, and possibly other communist friendly countries (guessing here). They can say what they want right now given the lock down of news in Russia.

Rusi report on the silicon chips is interesting looks like many parts like the TI dsp's are from the 80's , so russia could have stockpiled a lot of them,

Would you waste expensive technology on evaporating a country with the GDP of a asthmatic man on a treadmill trying to generate electricity? He'll probably just get them back down the mines they claim to have so loved ;)

Apparently more environmentally friendly to burn it than to just release the gas. Source, some chap on reddit so must be true.

Natural gas is mostly methane. Methane is a much stronger greenhouse gas than CO2, but lasts less time in the atmosphere. Although, thinking about it - doesn't it decay into CO2 eventually anyway so it's even worse.

Camo netting, but... isn't that heavy rust all over the top half of it anyway? Doesn't exactly look in good condition.

Also, is that actually an ICBM? What are the two hatches with ladders up to them for if it is?
