lol. Blyats can’t take Ukraine and NATO hasn’t done more than supply weapons and intelligence.
and not even the best boom-booms, either.
In your opinion what are the best boom-booms of NATO, short of nuclear devices?
AGM-158 JASSM's with CHAMP packages. Stealth cruise missiles with anti-electronics packages. Would bring down the bloodshed significantly while disabling enemy communications, launchers, radar installations, etc. These can be fired by F-16s.

Known or suspected/hypothetical?
You gotta imagine the US has at least one or two publicly unknown weapon types socked away for a rainy day. At the outside, perhaps something crazy in the vein of Rods from God.
the u.s. does not export 'everything' (even when excluding nuclear devices) in its arsenal.
You know that’s right.

Or whatever we've made since then.
I suspect NATO would be able to deploy localized laser based anti drone weapons.
Maybe show-off their experimental ship based rail guns?
Metal Gear?
Any fellow old folks remember the Iraqui Information Minister and related memes? Sounds like he's been giving this Russian guy lessons....
