Russian feels like it’s either the most incompetent person ever, or a D-list celebrity who’ll do increasingly zany shit to keep its name in the papers. Get a grip, Russia – I don’t want to see your crotch shots on page 6.
State department propaganda designed to put pressure on Russia from testing the capability further. What’s worrying them is once we perfect and advance our PL-19 Nudol anti-satellite systems, it leaves them exposed significantly as they are more reliant on satellite based comms than we are. U.S military capability is significantly powered by Satellite systems, from navigation for drones, fighter jets, missile defense alert systems, cruise missile guidance etc. The hope is that by creating ‘international incidents’ anytime Russia & China test anti satellite systems, they can try and create a global support to reduce system advancement and testing. Regardless, we’ll continue perfecting it. When you enemy is hopelessly reliant on a system, it becomes an advantage knowing how to nullify it’s usage.
Some evidence would be nice, like satellite imagery, but there are only 4 countries which posses ASAT and the Russian government hasn’t jumped to mention either of the other 3 as perpetrators of the attack on Cosmos 1408.
Everything they touch becomes mess for other to clean
So the U.S is finally admitting that Russia posted a NOTAM of the launch. Notifying them of the launch window, the exact coordinates and that it includes a Hazardous launch. They don’t have to worry about debris, there’s going to be 25,000 starlink statellites in space soon which will need replacing. Western media propaganda at it’s finest.

Its not a new thing… Russia testing and upgrading its surface to space missiles in the last years. [There were tests in 2020 too.](https://www.space.com/amp/russia-launches-anti-satellite-missile-test-2020)
