They could try to develop anti satellite technology like building roofs over their vehicle lots so we can’t watch them pull 60 year old tanks to the front in real time but no, another doomsday weapon it is…
Your thinking is old school and not at all dynamic enough for the modern battlefield. Mount the roofs on top of the vehicles instead. It’ll fool everyone. “What’s that? Oh it’s just a convoy of cottages being moved south for the winter, or summer or whatever.”
Russia can’t even make ball bearings or a modern working tank and jet, and their technology is consistently proven to be beaten by 40 year old equipment… I don’t think this is going to be a serious threat.
They already have functional orbital rockets and nukes… A nuclear space-based EMP isn’t much of a leap from there.
Says who? Russia?
They can’t even attend the Olympics without cheating their asses off.
