You can’t really asses their founding capabilities by only looking at their official budget figures, so far they were able to run 4 large exercises this year, they are continuing military buildup in Abkhazia and South Ossetia, and they are reforming their army to put in place up-to-date combat brigades, but their army is still very large.

Well, compared to what they were before I would not call this very impressive. They need to reform to a smaller, better organized army for totally different purposes that they were once – rolling over Europe and back. For the next to decades I would not expect Russians to intervene anywhere outside their near region (especially Caspian area and North pole)

Yeah, so does Putin. And they didn’t rejoined the CFE treaty when Obama abandoned the GBI in Poland, instead, they made tougher their nuclear policy, and Europe is the first to be threatened, US don’t have to worry that much, but Europe has to do so, the problem is that the contrary happens.

Europe does not have to worry at all. Russians need Europe just like Europe needs Russia. We might not sleep together but you don’t nuke your prime customer, do you?

Topol-M aren’t the latest models.

RS-24?

They are listed in docs that I’ve provided so far.

Sure. I have seen docs which listed over 400 Fulcrums in service, as well. I wonder how many of those are still flyable/serviceable.
