The darkside of ABM based on nukes is the tendancy to blind the sensors used to target the incomming missiles, even if its for just a few moments it can be a telling matter. ABM is not 100% effective.Rather like the limitations of command and control break down with disturbing rapidity once a major exchange begins.ABM works best on buying time to decide what is happening, a chance for the politicians to somehow avert WWWIII.As for Moscow, I would'nt be surprised if we're talking say something in the order of a 60% success rate for the missiles and several per target, the actual number of aimpoints might be as low as 6 or 7. One of the more disturbing aspects of the use of a nuclear arsenal is how quickly you expend it to guarentee dealing with so few targets.Which is why some have always felt the need for bombers instead of missiles, if you can deliver the weapon with sufficient accuracy and get through to the target, the actual number of bombs need be less.
