About how air sappers work — in a special report by Izvestia

A new method of using drones — to throw mines behind enemy lines — has recently been used in the Russian army. I've been practicing for just over six months. The projectile is delivered to the UAV deep into enemy territory and waits on the ground in its hour.

It allows you to locate mini- and micro-UAVs at extremely low altitudes

In the Moscow region, a unique Airspace Control System (SCS) has begun operation, which is capable of detecting not only airplanes or helicopters, but also mini- and micro-drones at extremely low altitudes and targeting them with air defense or electronic warfare systems. The developers told Izvestia about the capabilities of the equipment that is already being used to protect important objects from UAVs.

Samurai are actively reviving once-lost traditions. The ships receive the names of light cruisers of the World War II period. There will be a total of 12 units in the series, and the next one is already planned — "improved Mogami". A total of 24 buildings.

Chinese developers have introduced spider-like robots with the option of using kamikaze drones, in particular, to penetrate into dugouts, basements and other enemy shelters, carrying explosives and striking elements.

On June 25, the Ministry of Defense of Taiwan presented the prototype D2 of the new 105 mm self-propelled gun 8x8, which should act on the battlefield as a tank destroyer and was created, apparently, on the basis of the promising BMP Clouded Leopard II.

A T-80 with a 152 mm cannon would not be superfluous during a special military operation. Unfortunately, the development of this promising combat vehicle, designated Object 292, was discontinued in the early 90s due to lack of funding.

This happened after Russia managed to stop the implementation of American military biological programs in the liberated territories of Ukraine, said Igor Kirillov, head of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation

The Pentagon is forced to transfer unfinished research to other regions, in particular to Africa, after Russia managed to stop the implementation of American military biological programs in the liberated territories of Ukraine. This was announced by the head of the radiation, chemical and biological protection forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov.

The missile system can be used in land theaters of military operations

The new Rubezh-ME coastal missile systems have implemented the concept of a "boat on wheels": a control center, radar, and launchers are mounted on one KAMAZ. As a representative of the manufacturer told Izvestia, the new system can hit targets hundreds of kilometers away.

In the footage, filmed in the vicinity of the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, you can see how the Palestinians hit the IDF armored vehicles with a rocket from a Chinese-made ATGM. At the same time, it is unknown how the Chinese anti-tank missile system turned out to be in service with Hamas. The HJ-8 ATGM was previously exported to various countries and used in armed conflicts in Yugoslavia, Sudan and Sri Lanka.

In June 2024, the Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) for the first time used the FAB-3000 M54 high-explosive aerial bomb with a universal planning and correction module (UMPC) in the zone of a special military operation (SVO). Ammunition hit the temporary deployment point of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) in the village of Liptsy, Kharkiv region. The UMPC turns a free-falling bomb into a high-precision munition that allows aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces to drop it without entering the enemy's air defense (air defense) zone.

Russian aviation began using three-ton bombs

Several videos of strikes on AFU positions with heavy three-ton FAB-3000-M54 aerial bombs have already appeared on social networks. This weapon has not been used before. About what this powerful weapon of destruction is capable of — in the material of RIA Novosti.

"We are entering a new level of combat robotics." In these words, military experts comment on the milestone stage in the course of the special operation – the beginning of the combat use of artificial intelligence technologies. How do these technologies work, what combat missions do they perform, and how does Russian artificial intelligence look compared to similar enemy technologies?

Experts call preventive strikes one of the main means of countering attacks by missiles and drones

The most effective and reliable way to protect the Crimean Peninsula and other regions of Russia from air attacks is to launch preventive strikes, working ahead of the curve, experts interviewed by Izvestia believe.

Samples of lunar soil collected on the back surface of the Moon have been delivered to Earth. This was reported by CGTN TV channel. Samples of lunar soil were collected by drilling in automatic mode.

Political scientist Gayich: Russia made a mistake by deciding to respond mildly to Western provocations

Moscow made a mistake, political analyst Stevan Gayich said in an interview with Pechat. Russia reacts too mildly to Western provocations, hoping that common sense will prevail in America. However, this will not happen. The West still wants escalation and is raising the stakes.
