A similar photo hit the web a month or so ago. Turned out to be windmills.

It makes no sense to put missile silos close together.

I’ll reserve judgment for now, but I doubt the headline’s claim.

We'll see when the climate-controlled domes are removed. I'm no expert and so a little surprised that building the base of a windmill requires such dome.

It looks a bit overkill, but the domes could feasibly be to allow for proper temperature and moisture control of the concrete curing process.

Or to make satellite overwatch of what they're doing under the dome that much more difficult.

Or both!

Sure it makes sense, it means its easier to police/protect. If the aim is deterrence then in any case they launch before something arrives.

Police and protect against who? Are vandals going to steal your nuclear missiles from their silos?

And no, you can't guarantee a launch before destruction for deterrence.

Sinophobia is the new Islamophobia, which was the replacement for Russophobia when the USSR collapsed. The USA seems to need an enemy at all times so we don't focus on how bad things are in the domestic sphere.

Seems to me a rather fact-based analysis as to possible geopolitical role of these silos. where is the phobia?
