All these missiles are the legacy of the USSR. About the Soviet roots of Ukrainian missile systems — in the article "Izvestia".

Deafening effect: when the troops will receive the Bylina electronic warfare systems
And what is the new electronic warfare complex capable of
The Russian Armed Forces will receive new RB-109 Bylina electronic warfare systems in 2025. This system with elements of artificial intelligence combines electronic warfare tools into a single circuit, analyzes the situation in the combat area and independently decides how to organize the suppression of targets.

Great powers are fighting in the cybersphere
New geopolitical dimensions of information warfare
Russia's worthy place in the cybernetic and informational-psychological segments of the information confrontation can be ensured by a combination of measures to protect the national cyberspace from hostile influences, going beyond the defense procedures and carrying out actions of a proactive and prohibitive nature outside the national segment of cyberspace – in the interests of countering the emerging threat or suppressing an impending attack.

WP: It is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to pass new aid to Ukraine through the US Congress
Supporters of Ukraine "face a steep uphill climb in order to restore" funding, the newspaper noted

Liberals declare Zelensky's aid a "light burden" for the United States. But they don't believe them
The most liberal and politically correct economist in the United States, Paul Krugman, undertook to prove on the pages of the NYT that Republicans are grieving in vain about huge budget expenditures to help the Zelensky regime. It turned out unconvincingly. Even his games with numbers show that a lot is actually spent. And most importantly: it is spent stupidly.
Cargo cult as a percentage
Ukraine can fight for a long time on the available equipment

The American general called two mistakes of Joe Biden in Ukraine

The United States has created a bloody conflict in Ukraine. Here's how to redeem them
It was the reckless actions of the United States that gave rise to the bloody conflict in Ukraine, writes Doug Bandow in an article by TAC.

"NATO cannot be defeated." The protracted conflict in Ukraine has caused fear in the West

Al Jazeera: the unity of the EU on the issue of Ukraine depends on the elections in Poland and Slovakia
