Theodore Postol takes a deep dive into how Russia's early warning system works and why its existence and improvement would be in the world's best interest. Droning it? Absolute madness.

Droning Russia’s nuke radars is the dumbest thing Ukraine can do
Attacks on the early warning system actually highlights the fragility of peace between the world's nuclear powers

For a fleeting moment on May 22 the world may have come closer to a catastrophic nuclear accident due to a reckless Ukrainian drone attack on two Russian strategic nuclear early warning radars at Armavir.

Fortunately, a subsequent Ukranian drone attack on a third radar station at Orsk in Russia on May 26 failed.

The incidents underscore a few important things. First, the Ukrainians could have needlessly sparked a crisis in which the Russians, feeling like one of their defenses against a U.S. nuclear attack, were down, struck back hard in retaliation. And second, it highlights the need for Russians to acquire comprehensive space-based nuclear radar of their own.
