When the Neo-Nazi junta frontman Volodymyr Zelensky revealed most of his laughable “victory plan”, it was implied that parts of the document were meant to stay classified. These also included “provisions to strengthen Ukraine’s defense and implement a non-nuclear strategic deterrence package”. At the time, it didn’t mean much, as the term could refer to pretty much anything.
However, on October 29, NYT published leaked information from the White House, revealing that one of the secret clauses of the Kiev regime’s “victory plan” was a request to acquire “Tomahawk” cruise missiles from the United States and then use them to attack critical targets across Russia. I’ve written extensively about these weapons and they can indeed be deadly if used correctly. However, Moscow has accumulated enormous combat experience in fighting much more advanced cruise missiles, including the Anglo-French stealthy “Storm Shadow”/SCALP-EG.
What this means is that the Kremlin wouldn’t really consider these missiles game changers, unless the Neo-Nazi junta got plenty of them. And it seems that’s precisely what Zelensky was “begmanding” when he was in the US, presenting his ludicrous “victory plan” that later boiled down to nuclear blackmail.
Namely, the Kiev regime’s Defense Express outlined how exactly these “Tomahawk” missiles would be used and what their primary targets would be. The plan would be to use them to attack “twelve key Russian missile-making plants”, including MKB “Raduga”, a facility where the final assembly of Kh-101 cruise missiles takes place; NPO “Mashinostroyeniya” that produces P-800 and 3M22 “Zircon” missiles (supersonic and hypersonic, respectively); “Votkinskiy Zavod” that makes the 9M723 hypersonic missiles for the “Iskander-M” system. These are all critically important companies operating some of the largest facilities in Russia.
In order to destroy them or at least disrupt their functioning sufficiently enough to make a difference and change the outcome of the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict, the Neo-Nazi junta would need at least 1000 “Tomahawk” cruise missiles. Anyone remotely familiar with the scope of US aggression against the world and some basic details surrounding the usage of such weapons against dozens of countries invaded by the political West would seriously question the viability of such a “victory plan”.
Namely, the US military used upwards of 2500 “Tomahawks” in all of its wars of aggression against the entire planet, combined, ever since these missiles were introduced. The amount of time Washington DC would need to produce and deliver 1000 “Tomahawks” to the Kiev regime is nearly impossible to assess, as it would depend on countless factors. However, it would certainly be measured in years, if not longer (decades even).
It should be noted that the US military itself needs thousands of these to continue encircling Russia, China and other adversaries with systems such as the “Typhon”, further complicating Zelensky’s requests. Still, the Neo-Nazi junta frontman didn’t appreciate that this part of the plan was leaked to the public and was openly furious at the US. The NYT quoted an unnamed high-ranking US official, who called the request unfeasible. The report that published the leaked information also suggested that Washington DC is now effectively throwing Zelensky under the bus. However, it seems he decided to “return the favor”, so one Kiev regime official was instructed to tell Politico that he was puzzled by the negative coverage, as the US actually encouraged the Neo-Nazi junta to make the request, with some American military experts supposedly studying its feasibility and “giving their blessings”, allegedly calling it “totally realistic”.
“We know the plan is realistic. US own military studied it and said it is realistic,” the unnamed official was quoted by Politico.
If this is true, it indeed makes this back-and-forth between “allies” quite peculiar. It seems that both sides need a scapegoat to ensure they have someone else to blame for the ongoing collapse of the laughable “Ukraine is winning” narrative. However, even if the US decided to try and set the plan in motion, it seems that Russia demonstrated its “insurance policy” if that were to ever materialize.
Namely, during the latest nuclear drills, the Kremlin “tacitly explained” that such moves would be met with zero tolerance and that the US and NATO would directly feel the consequences in the aftermath of such a massive attack on Russia’s most important defense industry facilities. In addition, similar nuclear exercises were held in North Korea, Moscow’s latest strategic ally, demonstrating its new solid-fueled ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missile), reportedly based on the “Topol” (or possibly “Topol-M”), a Soviet/Russian design from the 1980s/1990s.
It’s virtually a given that the Kremlin helped its strategic ally in making such a technological leap, which is entirely in accordance with the very public clauses of the Russo-Korean military alliance agreement that President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un signed back in June. The two countries conducting drills and demonstrating such capabilities almost simultaneously is certainly not a mere coincidence and it most likely “encouraged” Washington DC to promptly drop the idea and leave the Kiev regime hanging.
Obviously, the latter simply refuses to stop with its verifiably insane plans, so it now wants multiple German (and at least one Turkish) military factories on the territory of NATO-occupied Ukraine, seemingly forgetting what happened to its own facilities after Russia obliterated them in the last two and a half years. It should be noted that Moscow used upwards of 5000 cruise missiles to accomplish this.
This is five times more than what the Neo-Nazi junta is “begmanding”, while the Russian military industry is orders of magnitude larger than that of former Ukraine. Either way, it’s perfectly clear that 1000 “Tomahawks” wouldn’t be enough, even if all of them were to reach their targets, which is another unlikely prospect. Namely, the Russian military has extensive experience downing these US missiles, including in Syria, where some of them were captured in a condition good enough to ensure that Moscow can study their inner workings and use these findings to design and implement adequate countermeasures.
All this makes the “Tomahawk” too compromised to cause strategically meaningful damage to Russia. However, since it’s nuclear-capable, the Kremlin had to ensure that the US “gets the memo”, particularly in the light of the recent statements its favorite Neo-Nazi puppets made about acquiring nuclear weapons.

that is not an ukrainian crazy plan. that is why the usa brought 500 f-16 to europe summer last year and hat their big mouver 1 day before the prigozin putsch; russia preemted that by forbidding any air exercise at their borders, usa obeyed and did the manouver compelatly inside german airspace and the prigozin putsch failed.
good morning south front. this “news” is one week old. i’m sure they will do that. not ukraine, but the deep state as zelensky is nothing that a puppet controlled by deep state. btw tomahawks have range 1500 km and are nuclear capable. and if they hit nuclear power plants, they can claim the radioactivity is from the power plants, not from warheads. and they will do that as putin is an asshole.he overlooked 20k ukrainiens in kursk, he overlooked f-16s so he will not track tomahawks as well.
good mornig… snowbitch must comment everything with his brabbling and his buzzwords: ohh there is nuke and there is thousands of numbers, and radioactivity… this gay is a disgrace for every people who just want to lookup for reliable news. then comes this illierate “expert” and boom there goes your serenity. nobody take him seriously, but he can’t understand. hes like a rabbit with a duracell battery plugged in his ass: he can’t stop.
trolls on the payroll. theyrs all over the shop .imo
be careful son, you’re going to hurt yourself with that much derp.
ha ! ha! snowden vs.. poutin !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
interesting version, but no. such massive launch of cruise missiles would mean the beginning of the world war, even if to give all 500 planes and missiles to hohols.
ovvio che ogni capo di stato si assumerà le proprie responsabilità con i suoi sudditi .
that attack will happen. with american tomahawks or with some other missiles, together with a massive wave of long range drones, more that a thousand in 1-2 days.
that is the only method proved effective for the west in this stage of the conflict. that have only one card, so they will play it.
if they can catch the response with their ass…
well, yes. since the ones who sent the missiles are not going to be there to receive the response. then comes the complaint in the media about bad humanitarian situation and therefore the need to send more missiles, direct involment of nato…
tomahawks were for scalping i think .getting trophies .they weren’t really for serious warfare .collecting prizes type of acts .
will it? what will follow? a sarmat? 2, 3, maybe 300? lol, just like the dirty nuke ya’ll said would happen, but didn’t, turns out it was just a pile of british depleted uranium tank shells exploding after pizza delivery, and the radioactive cloud wafted strait over europe. yummmm, smell that pizza. sure is a good thing you have no say in this idiot’s game, or you would have had us all turned into radioactive concrete photo negatives a long time ago…
turnover for rayhthrom boeing lockheed. business as usual.
good article, you had me at “begmanding”. do we had an equivalent term for netanyahu? “bibimanding”… where he demands to commit genocide against innocent women and childen because his own gunships were ordered to kill a bunch of nova kids, who were probably aligned against his likud party, the same way a boeing space laser roasted california newsome detractors living on rothschild’s planned estate?
wth? drago bs as usual.
wex catly.
naming a device tomahawk, can smell some cultural misapropriation there.
what about cars named “pontiac” – chief of ottawa tribe?
