Pentagon tests first land-based cruise missile after pulling out of INF Treaty

The Pentagon conducted a test of a land-based cruise missile on Sunday, the first such test since the U.S. pulled out of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty earlier this month.

A U.S. official said the missile was a variant of a Tomahawk Land Attack Missile, designed to carry a conventional, not nuclear, payload. The U.S. officially withdrew from the INF Treaty on Aug. 2 after the Trump administration declared Russia had long been in material breach of the Cold War arms-control pact. While analysts have warned that the treaty's end could lead to a dangerous new arms race, senior administration officials argued the U.S. had no choice but to terminate a deal that only one side was abiding by.

War

That's what happened when you give too much money to the war department.

Ohhhh now look who’s the rocket man realDonaldTrump

JuttaBommer2 Warum?

Blah blah blah Trumps fault, Russians, North Korea, he’s racist, America sucks, etc. Did I get it right? I didn’t even have to look at the comments by the worthless liberals to know their script here.

Is this what winning looks like? SMH

So are we just in an arms race again?

So they actually made this even though they said they wouldn't?

Anyone else feeling uncomfortable about this?

'Mine's bigger!'
