Dear amerikans,
YOU members of the self-described “christian nation.
YOU HAVE FALLEN WAY BEHIND in technology!
RUSSIA AND THEIR FRIENDS ARE “YOUR DADDY” NOW!
You still have to drop this “thing” from the wing of a B-52 to “ignite” the “scram-jet” rocket engine???????????????????????????????

With a range of 240 or so kilometers, it’s into the side of that aircraft carrier in a little more than 4 seconds once fired! THE PURE KINETIC FORCE EXERTED AT IMPACT BY THIS WEAPON’S RAM-JET ROCKET ENGINE WITH NO EXPLOSIVE CHARGE CAN SINK AN AIRCRAFT CARRIER WHEN STRUCK AMID SHIP!
AND, YOU amerikans HAVE NOTHING IN YOUR VAST AMORY TO COUNTER THIS.
PERIOD!

WILL ENGAGE OVER 100 OF YOUR AIRCRAFT AT ONCE!
GO ALL THE WAY TO 90 MILES HIGH TO PURSUE AND DESTROY MISSILES AND AIRCRAFT!
all of the back of 1 (ONE) flat-bed truck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and, they have made thousands OF THESE VERY EASILY PORTABLE (AND HIDE-ABLE) UNITS!!
sold THE S-300 series for $200 million per truck!
TO ALL COMERS
VENEZUELA, BRAZIL, IRAN, CHINA, INDIA, SOUTH AFRICA, TAIWAN, TO NAME A FEW COUNTRIES THAT BOUGHT THE S-300 PLATFORM WEAPON SYSTEM FROM RUSSIA.
THIS WAS WHILE YOU BIG, BRAVE, TOUGH amerikans WERE ATTACKING 3RD WORLD COUNTRIES WHO COULD NOT DEFEND THEMSELVES!
