Meanwhile In Kiev ...

 ... air raid sirens are on again (no jokes). Strikes are real, the sirens ... judge for yourself)) 



Unmanned Tanks ...

... at Center-2026. This is for those metrosexual "military experts" who infest all those US think-tanks and main-stream media and consume 404 propaganda--tanks are not going anywhere, they are here, they are fighting, and they are evolving. 


Ah, yes--Armatas, Su-57s and all those high-end weapons which Russia "can build only in a very few numbers"(c). Sure, let them cope harder. Now you understand the virtues of autoloaders. 

UPDATE: yep, it is 152-mm monster mounted on the unmanned Armata platform. It is called Shturm (Storm) and it is the armored vehicle of infantry support. This thing will blow out any reinforced positions. Here is a stroll down the memory lane. ISU-152 assault gun. 152-mm monster aka Zveroboi (Beast-Killer, beasts being Tigers and Panthers). 


Not only this thing could crush anything, but when hitting Tigers and Panthers it wouldn't penetrate them--it would crack and deform them while killing their crews outside. Everything inside was becoming a projectile even when the hit was tangential. 

Center-2026 ...

 ... military exercises at Chebarkul. 


Per Armata's immense barrel. 


This is something monstrous. Maybe 152-mm gun? Could be reactive wrap against UAVs. Or both. Anyhow, these are some views and sounds from these exercises and this is, indeed, how modern battlefield looks like. Plus, combat aviation is always near, including launching some very serious munitions, including anti-ship missiles at the extreme range. 


There are now all reasons to state that the new version of 3M22 Zircon with the range of 2,000 + km is combat deployed and has been used in 404 already. Launched from the North by one of the Gorshkov-class frigates. You wanted a revolution--here it is.

For Those Who Bemoan ...

 ... Russia's softness. Russia's Coast Guard seized this Estonia-bound vessel. 


It is in Russia now and somebody is not happy. Two can play the game, but Russia has the Navy which can sink anyone. Just in case. 

Imitating Activity.

When the whole thing is a bust. Production numbers, anyone?



Meanwhile in 404 ...

 ... future teachers of NATO's mobilization departments will share their experience of forming modern fighting force. The disability? What disability? Everybody has disability. 


The democracy and Western Civilization values are in good hands. This is a valuable experience. 

The Rarest Case ...

 ... when I agree with Lukuyanov. 


The gist:

"The recklessness and audacity" of Europeans regarding military exercises near Kaliningrad could lead to very serious consequences, said Fyodor Lukyanov. The phenomenon of modern Europe is that it is very eager to escalate tensions, while at the same time, it is completely unprepared and unwilling to fight, emphasized the director of research at the Valdai Club in a conversation with Zvezdanews correspondent Rossina Bodrova. At the same time, according to polls, the residents of these countries are not ready for war, while their authorities continue to irresponsibly escalate the situation.

There is a lot to be said about COFM. The math for NATO as a whole (US included) is simply not there, period. I made a video today which should be up shortly (hour or so), in which I provide a simple numerical comparison for only one type of weapon system such as jet-powered Geranium-4 and 5. When you will see those numbers you may experience a shock. As Pentagon is experiencing it non-stop. Hence Hegseth's clownish imitation of activity with his risible Project Meridian. 

As a primer, enjoy. 


The patients now control the asylum.
