MOSCOW, (BM) – The US Air Force will receive 400 AGM-158B JASSM-ER stealth cruise missiles “capable of reaching Russia” by mid-2025, the American edition Janes reported.

It is noted that the contract concluded with Lockheed Martin provides for the production of missiles by mid-2025, RIA Novosti reports.

In the summer of 2020, the Ukrainian consulting company Defense Express announced that the missile armament of the US Air Force’s B-52H Stratofortress strategic bombers could “strike” at Russia without the aircraft entering the airspace controlled by the S-400 Triumph air defense system.

Isn't the more relevant thing capable of reaching China? 

Rapprochement with Russia was the one good thing I hoped would come out of a Trump administration that wouldn't have been expected from any GOP administration.  Never happened -- I think derailing it was the real reason behind the obsession with non-existent "Russian collusion".

Realistically we should be trying to divide Russia and China with a view, if not to allying with Russia against China in a formal sense, at least having Russia help in restraining China, or sitting on the side-lines while an alliance of us and all the other encircling powers (India, Vietnam, Australia, Taiwan, South Korea and Japan and maybe some the "Stans") push back.
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.
