| | The official cover story eventually became the Ukrainian missile fell in Poland because the S-300 system is unreliable and obsolete Soviet-era junk. However, despite its vulnerabilities to detection and being destroyed by an enemy attacking force, the S-300 remains a formidable missile defense weapon, unmatched by the U.S. [[Patriot Missile]] defense system. It's later versions, S-400 and S-500 are unrivaled globally as the most effective missile systems available in the opening decades of the 21st century. | | The official cover story eventually became the Ukrainian missile fell in Poland because the S-300 system is unreliable and obsolete Soviet-era junk.

| | + | On January 25, 2023 Konstantin Gavrilov, the head of the Russian delegation to the Vienna Negotiations on Military Security and Arms Control, warned: |
| | + | {{quotebox-float|“We know that [[Leopard 2]] tanks, as well as Bradley and Marder armored fighting vehicles, can use [[depleted uranium]] shells, which can contaminate terrain, just like it happened in [[Yugoslavia]] and [[Iraq]]...If Kiev were to be supplied with such munitions for the use in western heavy military hardware, we would regard it as the use of ‘[[dirty nuclear bomb]]s’ against Russia, with all the consequences that entails.”}} |
| | + | Depleted uranium is a very dense metal, ideal to be used on projectiles because of its mass, and also because it ignites at around 600 degrees Celsius; it can penetrate an armoured vehicle and incinerate the crew once it enters the cabin. As a block or a projectile, the material can be handled with no health consequences, but when it ignites or explodes, it's turned into dust, then, it can be inhaled or ingested by live creatures and it wreaks havoc in the internal organs, creating a very large number of cancerous lesions and genetic malformations. That is why it is considered a very dangerous polluting material, same as a dirty bomb. |

| | + | The use of depleted uranium shells was developed by the United States in the 1980s. The Russian military made the decision at that time not to follow suit and compete by developing depleted uranium as a battlefield weapon because of its long lasting environmental and health effects. Existing tactical nuclear weapons were considered a sufficient deterrent to what is essentially a nuclear dirty bomb used by NATO and the United States. |

| | + | On March 20, 2023 Annabel Goldie, the British Minister of State for Defence, declared that her country would provide depleted uranium munitions to the Kyiv regime.<ref>https://youtu.be/vSG_3cduRLA</ref> In response, President Vladimir Putin reported on March 25 that the decision had been made to deploy a tactical nuclear weapon on the territory of Belarus by July 1, 2023 to reduce flight time against NATO aggressors. |
