I’m not an expert on these issues, but ain’t an air-to-air nuclear missile a bit of an overkill ?
I mean, do you really need a nuke to take down another aircraft ? What would it be that aircraft, an alien mothership or what…?

This air to air nuke might be an EMP airburst weapon to destroy electrical systems over a large area. Air to air implies an airborne opponent though…🤔

What’s that thing supposed to be used on? Surely it is too short range and too overkill for any “large slow” air target? Even for ground targets the range sounds low. Or is “straight up” included in that range, as something to destroy ballistic missiles or mess with LEO?

Last thing Russia could do to gain a temporary advantage, but they would lose them China’s support and open them to NATO air war.

So stop them then!
Russia is weak. They prove this every single day.
Wonder if they have the latest firmware update…
So they revived a concept from the 1950s?
