Decent podcast here. Regarding Russia’s “tactical” nukes, the guy says they haven’t tested one of them since I believe 1990; and posited that we’d see them hauling one out of storage, recommissioning (with 30 year old instructions and a bunch of know-nothing troops that have never seen the inside of one of these things), and then up to test before they actually used one in combat. Sounds logical, and ripe for accidents. Reminds me of the Kursk situation (not the conspiracy theory) - they were prepping to launch a leaking torpedo, hadn’t launched a torpedo in 3 years, shit happened. I mean if you haven’t done something in 3 years or 30 years, there’s going to be some serious rust. Like literally there may be no one in the Russian service that was hands on involved the last time they fired up a nuke, and from reports it seems they take the Allen Iverson view of training the troops. http:// https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/in-moscows-shadows/id1510124746?i=1000559239076
