Welcome to Mother Russia's High-tech War Room
Vladimir Putin’s multibillion-dollar, triple-decker war room revealed! Russia's new National Control Defense Center, which recently hosted an army briefing on Syria, became "the real star of the show", according to the Washington Post. "Gentlemen. You can't fight in here. This is the war room!" It could have been a scene straight out of "Dr. Strangelove" when President Vladimir V. Putin stepped into the Russian Ministry of Defense's brand new, three-tiered, multibillion-dollar control center this week, for a war briefing that had its fair share of movie-like pageantry. The fortified National Control Defense Center was Putin's first stop after officials confirmed that the Russian charter jet crash that claimed 224 lives last month was the result of an act of terror. On movie-theater-size screens, live broadcasts showed long-range strategic bombers taking off from Russian air bases to fly sorties over Syria. Putin instructed commanders in Syria to "make contact with the French and work with them as allies" as Russia seeks a central role in a proposed anti-terrorist coalition.

Re: Welcome to Mother Russia's High-tech War Room
The world has been changing...rapidly over the past three decades moreso than the overall tech changes during the WWII and Cold war eras. It is just more noticeable right now. |
