    I have recently read very interesting article about Система Периметр (Perimeter System aka Мёртвая рука - Dead hand ) that was created to semi-automatically trigger nuclear missiles and thus enable nuclear counterstrike on USA and other targets. However only in case of USSR's leadership death. It is being rumored that Perimeter is still active. Anyone is willing to eleaborate on this, throw in some photos, etc.?

    American military transport plane made a test flight through Russia to Afghanistan. As informs "Interfax", flight has been made still on October, 7th, but it became known about it only on October, 13th. The Minister for Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Sergey Lavrov has told about trial flight at press conference following the results of a meeting with US State Secretary Hillari Clinton.

    I think this is the only available image on the net of this System. It`s a command-staff rocket with a powerful radio-transmitter for launching system`s ballistic missiles in case of other communication methods doesn't`t work.
