Russian electronic warfare caused 36 Tomahawk missiles to miss?

Mr. Trump would fire a $2 million missile at a $10 tent or a camel in the desert.

President Donald Trump is still not tired of rushing to "fly Tomahawks into Syria" to punish the Assad government because Washington believes it is the culprit of the chemical weapons massacre in Idlip on April 4.

According to analysts and the American media, the honor of the United States, a superpower, has been greatly affected by this hasty action. This is shown through three specific effects:

Trump lost too much from his haste

Trump lost too much from his haste

The firstUntil now, Washington still cannot explain where the 36 Tomahawk missiles that were launched but failed are now and what was the cause of that?

Without explaining this, the pride of the US military will vanish in Trump's hasty moment.

The US magazine The Unz Review said that since the Tomahawk missile was introduced in the early 1990s, the failure rate has been only 5%. Tomahawk missiles are fired often fly close to the ground during their journey, making them almost invisible to ground-based radar systems.

Meanwhile, Russia did not have the presence of early warning aircraft in the Syrian sky at that time to help Syria's conventional air defense systems intercept US Tomahawk missiles.

From there, the American magazine raised the question: there must be the presence of a Russian electronic warfare system in the vicinity of the Syrian army's Shayrat airbase - the target of the US Tomahawk missile attack on April 7.

According to analysts, this is consistent with reality, because during the flight to the target, the US Tomahawk missiles were impacted to some extent, causing them to deviate from their planned flight path and crash before reaching their destination.

In any case, whatever the reason for the 36 Tomahawks' inexplicable misfires is the result of the Trump administration's failure to have a backup plan, to plan its own escape route when the action did not go as planned.

Monday, Trump has put Washington in an offside position against Moscow after this move. Trump "did not bother" to listen to Putin to fully investigate the Idlib incident before taking action, so now Washington "does not dare" to listen to Moscow to properly investigate the incident.

The US wants a resolution condemning Syria's use of chemical weapons, but Russia vetoed it. To stop Moscow's actions, Washington must present clear evidence.

To have evidence, we must investigate and investigate with results, but Washington does not want to investigate. According to analysts, Washington seems to be worried that a clear investigation will cause the consequences of Trump's actions to be disastrous for the United States. We have to face a dilemma.

Not only that, after the "US Tomahawks flew into Syria", Moscow suspended the Memorandum of Understanding on preventing incidents and ensuring aviation safety in the skies of Syria, which was signed by Russia and the US in October 2015.

This action by Moscow is extremely dangerous for Washington, because according to this document, the Russian and US militaries can directly exchange intelligence information to avoid unwanted collisions between the two sides' air forces.

The fact that US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson had to leave the G7 Foreign Ministers' Meeting to rush to Moscow is believed to be mainly aimed at trying to persuade Moscow to restore that Memorandum of Understanding.

Although Russia and the US finally resumed the Memorandum of Understanding on preventing incidents and ensuring aviation safety in the skies over Syria, it cannot be denied that Washington has lost its position against Moscow in this case.

Deputy Director of the Russian Institute for Strategic Studies and Forecasting, Nikita Danyuk, commented: "The decision to resume the memorandum of understanding is a sign that the US will most likely no longer take any actions intended to suppress Syria."

TuesdayComparing the consequences he had to bear with the results he achieved, American public opinion criticized Trump for wasting America's money and the American people's money through his rash actions.

Tomahawks haven't flown into North Korea because Trump isn't allowed to throw money out the window anymore?

The Atlantic commented that Mr. Trump launched a form of military attack famously mocked by President George W. Bush when he said firing a $2 million missile at a $10 hut or shooting a camel in the desert.

That shows that President Trump's proposal to increase the defense budget is reasonable to help him comfortably carry out many "camel-shooting missile" missions.

It should also be known that, according to the latest report of the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) published on April 24, in 2016, US spending on military plans reached 611 billion USD, while Russia's was only 69.2 billion USD, less than 1/8 of the US.

Moscow also believes that Russia's actual defense spending is lower than SIPRI's calculations.

This inevitably causes the American military, analysts and public to question the effectiveness of US military operations.

Therefore, Trump's hasty actions like "flying Tomahawks into Syria" will be examined and dissected, and Trump is unlikely to take similar actions.

While “the move was a warning move, not a submissive one, it gave Syrian and Russian leaders a range of options for how to respond and could potentially lead the US into potentially risky moves that President Trump could not have imagined,” according to The Atlantic.
