US Air Force Plans to Build Huge Network of Underground Tunnels

Smoke & mirrors, I’m thinkin’. They already have all the tunnels they need.

Propaganda Matrix – by Paul Joseph Watson

The US Air Force is planning to build a huge network of underground subway tunnels in order to shuttle around nuclear missiles as part of an effort to move away from stationary silos that are easier to attack.

“Next month, the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center plans to award multiple study contracts — each worth as much as $3 million — to expand on several ways of extending the operational life of the ground-based ICBM fleet from 2025 to 2075,” reports InsideDefense.com.  

The project would require, “a vast underground subway-like network of pathways to shuttle new missiles around to multiple launch portals, any of which of could be used to fire the missile.”

Launch portals would be stationed at regular intervals along the subway, allowing the unmanned transporters to be raised up and the missile to be fired in a “doomsday scenario”. Each tunnel would be dedicated to one single missile and launch system.

The mobile silo system would have to be capable of withstanding “ground shock levels” and to “permit adequate ‘rattle space’ in the event of an enemy attack.”

A recent feature article published in the Strategic Studies Quarterly journal of the U.S. Air Force Air University by authors Keir A. Leiber, associate professor at the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, and Daryl G. Press, an associate professor of government at Dartmouth University, warned that the risk of nuclear weapons being used in future conflicts has heightened.

“In the coming decades, deterring the use of nuclear weapons during conventional wars will be much harder than most analysts believe,” state the authors, adding, “Very accurate delivery systems, new reconnaissance technologies, and the downsizing of arsenals from Cold War levels have made both conventional and nuclear counterforce strikes against nuclear arsenals much more feasible than ever before.”

America’s efforts to make its nuclear arsenal less vulnerable to attack dovetails with the ongoing development of the US missile defense system which many analysts have warned has little to do with defense and a lot to do with targeting Russia. Operational missile defense systems are set to be deployed in Romania and Russia within the next 5 years.

Vladimir Kozin, leading researcher with the Kremlin-affiliated Russian Institute of Strategic Studies, recently complained that “The only purpose of the U.S. missile defense equipment deployed in Europe is to destroy Russian intercontinental ballistic missiles,” asking why “the U.S. Air Force completed building new underground warehouses at 13 air bases in six NATO member countries to store precision nuclear air bombs.”

Russian Bear bombers capable of carrying nuclear missiles have been conducting increasingly hostile maneuvers in recent years near US airspace, including an incident last month where the aircraft flew over the US island of Guam in a “highly unusual” move and were intercepted by US Air Force F-15 jets.

  1. They did the same thing with this story…

    this stuff has been going on since 911 – they are just now shoving it in our face and making an attempt to prevent us from prosecuting them by creating color of law doctrine regarding these practices.
    The real elephant in the room is that this is all being done by the Executive branch. If you notice, this piece refers to this not as law, but as “regulation”.
    If the discussion continues to revolve around each specific issue, no matter how egregious, we are killing each individual bee, but ignoring the hive.
    We are at the tipping point. The system is so incredibly desperate, it has now become a race between their outlandish moves to hold us down and control us, and the mass awakening that result from these tyrannical moves – who’s going to reach the finish line first?

    Whatever happens, it looks as though it is going to be really, really hard to pull off a non-violent revolution and restoration of the Republic. These guys have pulled out their fiddles and they are trying to make things burn.

  2. Didn’t we hear of this plan during the Reagan years?

    There was supposed to be some underground railway missile transportation system that would allow them to play what they called a “shell game” at the time, as a way of concealing the locations of our missiles.

    It’s all just robbery. They give their friends the money for work which may or may not ever get done, and they give you the bill for it all. And this cold-war spending can reach the sky, because we’re all afraid of nukes.

  3. Oh, when THEY tell you something about their plans, or a clue of what they intend to do, THAT’S BECAUSE THEY’VE ALREADY DONE IT!

    Whistleblowers have been informing about those tunnels for years and years. The tunnels are also for the Elite bunkers, with all the luxuries, and floor levels, and food stocked up, plants and gardens, and maybe even stock animals.

    They may also have taken all the potable water from us, to keep for themselves.

  4. With the advent of tunnel boring machines and what has been stated or speculated on the net they already have them! Some speculation is they have high speed transit system’s connecting military bases underground.
    Whether that’s true or not we know they have underground bunkers and I don’t think anybody would enter one without a backdoor! So for the Airforce to bore tunnel’s for mobile nuke’s is already done.

  5. They are just in it for the money and will get it. Although, they might need to expand some existing underground storage/maintenance facilities associated with the multitrack cross country underground rail system. Relatively recent improvements in gravitational mathematics have greatly increased the accuracy of incoming warheads (>10 meter accuracy), sorry Newton. This effectively renders all silos and any hardened sites vulnerable to first strike. They have lost a leg in the nuclear triad. Guess they should have kept the MX in its original form.
