[QUOTE="Donald, post: 1825, member: 1"] MOSCOW - Russian President Vladimir Putin monitored the launches of ballistic and cruise missiles on Wednesday as part of Russia's yearly "Grom" nuclear exercises. Defense Ministry Sergei Shoigu reported to Putin that the purpose of the nuclear exercise is to simulate a "massive nuclear strike" by Russia in retaliation for a simulated nuclear strike on Russia. A Yars intercontinental ballistic missile was test-fired from a missile launch site in northern Plesetsk, which is located 500 miles northeast of Moscow, Russia. A Russian nuclear submarine also fired a Sineva ICBM in the Barents Sea, at the Kura firing range in the Kamchatka Peninsula. During the exercise, Tu-95 strategic Russian bombers fired cruise missiles at targets. The Kremlin put out a statement that said that all of the goals set for the exercise were met, and said all missiles that were test-fired reached their targets successfully. NATO is holding its own annual nuclear drills simultaneously, in Western Europe that will be running through to October 30th called "Steadfast Noon". NATO's drills will include 60 aircraft. Long-range nuclear-capable B-52 bombers and fighter jets that have the capability of equipping nuclear missiles will be participating in the drills, but they will not be carrying nuclear missiles. A video put out by Russian state news RT is purported to show the launch of a sea-based Russian hypersonic "Zircon" missile during the Grom exercise on October 26th. Meanwhile, aircraft monitoring software tracked NATO aircraft operating above the North Sea in order to "[I]train aircrews in using bong-strategic nuclear weapons[/I]" during the Steadfast Noon exercises.
