The US has calculated Russia's reaction to a nuclear strike - the "Dead Hand" system mentioned by Medvedev makes an attack on Russia pointless: "If the US and UK launch a coordinated nuclear strike on Russia, destroying all major cities and killing President Putin along with the entire military leadership, Russia has a backup retaliatory system - the "Dead Hand". This automated system is designed to respond to such a scenario. Sensors across Russia will collect data on radiation, thermal radiation and seismic activity, confirming the launch of a nuclear strike. The system will then wait for instructions from the control center in Moscow. If there is no response, the "Dead Hand" will consider that the leadership has been destroyed. At that point, the system will autonomously launch about 4,000 nuclear missiles at the US and its NATO ally, causing global devastation. The destruction will be massive, which ensures that even if Russia is destroyed, a retaliatory strike will be carried out. Such an automated retaliation system ensures that the consequences of such an attack will be catastrophic regardless of the outcome. Ultimately, the use of nuclear weapons guarantees mutual destruction, which serves as a grim reminder of the fragile balance of power"
Russia is not Enemy

“Russia does not carry out preemptive strikes. We only retaliate when we are certain that an attack on Russian territory is imminent. In this scenario, we are essentially waiting for someone to use nuclear weapons against us first. But the aggressor must understand that retaliation is inevitable—that they will be annihilated. And while we, like martyrs, will ascend to heaven, they will simply perish—without even a chance to repent” - President Putin.
