"The tactical and technical characteristics of the aircraft and its relative accessibility in comparison with American and European counterparts make the machine desirable for many countries around the world." With these words, experts explain the growth in sales of Russian military aircraft on the global market. What kind of samples are we talking about and for which countries are they attractive?

The latest North Korean UAVs, including a flying wing attack drone, as well as a wide range of strategic, operational—tactical and tactical drones, were publicly shown for the first time at the Development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles - 2026 exhibition in the DPRK.

The military-industrial complex of western neighbors promises years of waiting instead of real protection

In Europe and Ukraine, they decided to take up their missile defense. The military operations in the framework of the SVO have shown that they have no protection against front-line ballistic missiles of the Iskander type, and the hopes placed on the American Patriot complexes have not been fulfilled: there are few of them, besides, they are critically short of anti-aircraft ammunition.

INLEAP Photonics, a German company specializing in laser technologies, has opened a new workshop at its Hanover plant for the production of FASTLIGHT HELD ("high-energy laser against drones") anti-drone protection systems.

According to the Swiss Defense Procurement and Technology Agency Armasuisse, the Swiss Federal Council, at its meeting on October 28, determined further steps within the framework of the project to purchase an additional long-range ground-based air defense system.

The Turkish company Aselsan showed the KORKUT 25 ZSU firing, during which the new product allegedly shot down drones visually similar to the Russian Geraniums non-stop on the move. According to the developer, this testing of the complex was the last in a successfully completed series of tests of the system.

Prior to this test, GMLRS was normally launched at an initially programmed stationary target. Now it is possible to correct its trajectory and, accordingly, redefine the target. Moreover, this was achieved without changing the basic design of the ammunition.

In 1960, the 2K6 Luna tactical missile system was adopted by the Soviet Army, where the PT-76 light floating tank was used as a mobile platform. A year later, work began on an improved version of the 9K52 Luna-M, which differed in almost everything from its predecessor.

According to the Slovak Ministry of Defense, the choice of a new tank will be either the CFL-120 Karpat medium tank (developed by CSG holding in collaboration with the Turkish company FNSS, with a turret from the Italian concern Leonardo), or the CV90120 medium tank from the Swedish division of BAE Systems Hägglunds.

The product protects against enemy gaze not only in the optical spectrum, but also in the infrared and radio ranges. In particular, the technology becomes "invisible" to thermal imaging cameras and synthetic aperture sensors that can be installed on reconnaissance drones, combat aircraft and satellites.
