US prepared to snatch Pakistan nukes

You still have to mention how America will neutralize Pakistani nukes?

I am more interested in this part than knowing how cool America is.

You think that US will make this plan public? Why common sense is so much lacking?

US employs the most sophisticated Intel gathering system of this world. Much about this system is not clearly known.

I will give you some powerful hints:

1. Ground Penetrating Radar

Commercially viable GPR typically fall into two categories, shallow penetrating systems operating to depths of five feet or less and very deep penetrating systems operating to depth of hundreds or even thousands of feet.

With this technology, US would have scanned entire surface of Pakistan and gained incredible insight about underground complexes and facilities built to date.

2. JSTAR system

This system provides considerable situational awareness of military related movements in real time on the ground. JSTAR system has enormous coverage.

Now coming towards firepower; US can bring so much firepower in to a single theater to eliminate it that it is difficult to imagine.

Here is a major hint:

1. EPW (Earth Penetrating Weapons)

US have developed large arsenal of both nuclear and non-nuclear EPW weapons which can render underground facilities useless in seconds.



Here is an example of nuclear EPW, whose details have been made public:



However, this weapon is extremely destructive.

Therefore, US is improving the capabilities of its conventional EPW arsenal.

Also, not all kinds of EPW weapons have been revealed to the public. US certainly have some special ones too and those are the most interesting ones. (I have met an American Gulf War veteran who pointed out that US used an extremely powerful EPW to wipe out an enormous underground military weapons storage complex near Basra in Gulf War 1991. He pointed out that details have not been made public. This weapon produced noticeable seismic activity.)

Now of course, I do not have 100% grasp of US power projection capabilites because I do not work in NORAD.

No the Iraqi Republican guard fought the main army were ordered to stand down by Generals who defected
DID THE IRAQI ARMY TAKE A DIVE FOR THE U.S.?
That is just one of many articles which elude to this fact.

This is not true.

Read this interview;

Interviews - Lt. Gen. Raad Al-Hamdani | The Invasion Of Iraq | FRONTLINE | PBS

Some serious battles took place around Baghdad. And this commander have revealed only his side of story.

I don't how much delusional can people get specially brain dead FOX-washed americans get too excited
by this hollywood thriller type so called US plans. Nukes are not apples and oranges to just come and take away. How do
people think US can take nukes weighing 10s of tons scattered throughout PAK right under the noses of PAK army with
night raids and helicopters. Even Hollywood won't fart out such fictions.

Key word is nuetralization. US does not needs to steal Pakistani nukes. And modern nuclear weapons do not weigh so much.

Also, it is often said that truth can be stranger the fiction.

Even enormous countries such as India and China are not safe from disproprotionate US response.

Chill dude Chill.
So you think, to neutrizile Pakistani nukes, US will attack pakistans multiple nuclear facilities and storgae sites with these weapons.
No chance dear no chance at all, Pakistani nuclear facilities are spread all acreoss pakistan. Even there are multiple stotrage sites for fissile material, triggers mechanism and missile system. It is almost impossible to destroy even half of pakistani nukes.

A full scale attack on pakistan's nuclear sites will have serious international concequences involving china and oother regional countries.

Brilliant piece of information! Thumbs up!

I will say the same...US forces cannot TAKE Pakistani nukes, but they certainly KNOW where they are and do have the capability to destroy the Storage Sites to some extent.

Can you please or any one else elobrate what is meant by neutrilization of pakistani nukes. here are some possibilities.
1. US and its allied countries destroy all Pakistani nukes (100%). ? Ask your self is it possbile.

2. US take away pakistan fissile materials and triggers. IS it possible with nukes stored on multiple locations.

3. US send their ground troops and take control of all nuclear facilites and storage locations? (how) can any one please tell.

4. What happens if pakistan still retain some dozen nukes at some undisclosed location and retaliate back.

5. Does US precisely know all our nuclear facilities and storage sites.

[LeGenD]

With the limited number of troops in Afghanistan and the topography of the Pak-Afg border. Air-superiority is quickly nullified. Remember when the Americans just about levelled Tora Bora? The AQ leadership didn't even seem to notice, they kept on issuing video tape after video tape. Even today, the cave networks are intact and still in use with the terrorists.

Tora Bora was just the begining of testing a new war doctrine. (believe me when I say this)

And if nothing significant happened in Tora Bora then why so many terrorists ran away from this region?

Point is that humans are susceptible to shock factor. Powerful weapons can demoralize people on ground very easily, regardless of them being seasoned warriors or not.

I saw Legend's post and it all boils to the same. The radiation cloud will quickly engulf the region (in the wind direction determined by the prevailing wind system). This means it's a 50/50 scenario. There's a chance the US may end up packing up from Afg quicker than expected to save their boys from radiation contamination. Then there's the chance that the wind may blow the nuclear dust cloud over India. That would pose serious problems for the US. India as a booming economic powerhouse is an important country to keep happy.

Good point. Certainly enlightens some potential risks of this hypothetical scenario.

However, in a worst case scenario, all kinds of (possible) issues are taken in to consideration and new tools are invented to address them. The beauty of having immense resources.

So the 'nuking the nukes' theory wouldn't fare well.

Good point but 'nuking the nukes' theory is regarded as one of the most effective ones. Though US is improving its conventional capabilities for these kinds of scenarios.

Infiltration is the only course of action that even has a remote chance of success.

Smart weapons provide reasonable alternatives.

1 out of 4.

I am very CHILL. Just trying to give some reality check to fellow members here.

And you are clueless about US firepower.

All of Pakistani nukes can be rendered useless. We do not have thousands of nuclear weapons and neither the geography the size of Russia to hide them.

All of Pakistani nukes can be rendered useless. We do not have thousands of nuclear weapons and neither the geography the size of Russia to hide them.

But WHAT IF ,after the hypothesized operation, some nukes do remain with us? What will be OUR response?

[LeGenD]

Can you please or any one else elobrate what is meant by neutrilization of pakistani nukes. here are some possibilities.
1. US and its allied countries destroy all Pakistani nukes (100%). ? Ask your self is it possbile.

Yes. Pakistan does not have thousands of nuclear weapons and neither the geography the size of Russia to hide its nuclear arsenal.

In contrast, US have thousands of nuclear and EPW weapons. Do the math.

2. US take away pakistan fissile materials and triggers. IS it possible with nukes stored on multiple locations.

No one will try to 'take away' our nukes. Do you think that Americans are stupid?

US can nuetralize all underground storage facilities in Pakistan. Our nuclear weapons will be rendered useless with essential components gone or destroyed.

3. US send their ground troops and take control of all nuclear facilites and storage locations? (how) can any one please tell.

No need. Just send smart weapons in to entrance points of underground facilities. Repeat, if required. Job done.

4. What happens if pakistan still retain some dozen nukes at some undisclosed location and retaliate back.

We are talking about full-scale war here. US will ensure that Pakistan is crippled beyond recovery due to the danger it poses.

5. Does US precisely know all our nuclear facilities and storage sites.

We do not know. US will never make this information public.

But WHAT IF ,after the hypothesized operation, some nukes do remain with us? What will be OUR response?

We do not have credible second strike capability. No targets on land are safe.

Their is another issue; our nuclear weapons are in 'dismantled state' (correct me, if I am wrong here) and not in 'deployment state' like in Russia and USA. Now under enormous firepower, how will you expect to assemble these weapons on short notice?

[Ranasikander]

[COLOR="#0000FF"]

I am very CHILL. And you are clueless about US firepower.

I know US very well but you seems to be thinking with slave mentality and superiority complex of US

All of Pakistani nukes can be rendered useless. We do not have thousands of nuclear weapons and neither the geography the size of Russia to hide them.

Mr. Einstein, How do you come to this non sense conclusion.

[Mercenary]

1 out of 2 choppers was destroyed in OBL raid on a civilian compound.....................

It wasn't destroyed.

It suffered what is known as a Vortex Ring State.

[LeGenD]

I know US very well but you seems to be thinking with slave mentality and superiority complex of US

Actually I do not suffer from self-assumed superiority syndrome like you.

Mr. Einstein, How do you come to this non sense conclusion.

So genius now you want us to believe your "truth" even if it sounds like fiction
