"Then allow me to help. Visualize Chechen nuclear weapons"

This is a highly accurate statement and emphasizes that the Russian learning curve from it's Afghanistan experiences is rather flat.

Then again we have to remember that the Russkies don't give a rat's ass for their own population in Chechnya, when it comes to oil flowing North into Russia from Iran.

Quote: The missile is also effective against precision guided weapons and cruise missiles. In tests the missile demonstrated kill probability of such targets ranging from 0.6 to 0.9.( See http://www.defense-update.com/products/t/tor.htm )

The TOR system is effective under ideal conditions; a diversionary air srike from jets would allow cruise missles to fly into their key holes, BUT would the TOR stop fighter bombers trying to deliver Bunker Buster Bombs?
