Russia's "Dead Hand" nuclear system near the Urals explained
Original: Russia’s “Dead Hand”: What Is Known About the Secret Nuclear Facility Near the Urals
Ukrainian media are reporting on Russia's so-called "Dead Hand" perimeter nuclear retaliatory system, outlining what is publicly known about a secretive military facility in the Urals linked to automated command-and-control of Russia's nuclear arsenal. The coverage reviews the system's Cold War origins, its semi-automatic response capabilities, and the lack of verified official information about its current status and location.
Why now: Wartime tensions have revived interest in Russia's nuclear command infrastructure and its ability to strike automatically if leadership is decapitated.
