Russia’s New Iskander Missiles Can Outsmart Patriot Defenses, US Intel Warns
 
Russia has modified its Iskander ballistic missiles with new maneuvering capabilities, making them more difficult for US-supplied Patriot air defense systems to intercept, according to a new US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) report, cited by The War Zone on August 14.

The assessment, cited by The War Zone, says Russian forces are increasingly turning to ballistic missiles in their strikes against Ukraine—and those missiles can now change trajectory mid-flight rather than follow a predictable ballistic arc.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Amazing what the Russians can do with US technology that we continue to make available to them,
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-
