Russia isn't ready for the surprise NATO attack its strategists foresee

• Russian strategists believe their country must be ready for NATO conventional missile strikes.
• Russian media publicized their article just as NATO war games began.
• The missile strike they think NATO is planning is a mirror of how Russia itself would fight a war.

Russian strategists argue its military needs more robust systems to defend against a NATO surprise attack that would come in the form of conventional missile strikes, a warning that comes as NATO conducts a massive exercise near Russia's northern border.
