Today, the Russian group includes frigates armed with Zircon hypersonic missiles

The intensification of hostilities in Syria has drawn attention to the combat capabilities of the permanent operational connection of Russian ships and submarines in the Mediterranean Sea. So, during the exercises in this area, the frigates Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Gorshkov and Admiral Golovko fired hypersonic Zircon missiles for the first time. What is included in the composition and what are the combat capabilities of the Russian Navy group in the Mediterranean Sea — in the Izvestia material.

The U.S. Marine Command has invited companies to provide solutions to protect infantry from small drones. The means of combating UAVs should be user-friendly, easy to learn, lightweight and maximally compatible with systems that are already in service.

A modern American universal missile system on a wheeled chassis. It is designed to defeat artillery, air defense systems, armored vehicles, vehicles, manpower and communications of the enemy, as well as to provide support to allied ground units. It is used by the U.S. Army and Marine Corps, as well as the armed forces of six other countries. It was used during the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and as part of a special military operation in Ukraine. It has been mass-produced since 2003.

It is reported that the Ukrainians have managed to integrate the use of French adjustable AASM-250 Hammer modular aircraft bombs on Soviet Su-25 attack aircraft. These are aircraft that, for the characteristic outlines of the nose, were nicknamed "Rooks", a rather old design of the 1975 model, which began to enter service with the USSR Air Force in 1981. They are designed to directly support ground forces in direct line of sight of the target, as well as destroy objects with specified coordinates around the clock in any weather conditions.

"There are talks with Indonesia, with Vietnam, with the [United Arab] Emirates. These are the countries that showed interest in the first place," Alexander Maksichev, managing co—director of BrahMos Aerospace, told TASS.

As indicated in the Altair publication, the ASN-301 is a weapon conceptually derived from the German DAR and the Israeli Harpy. In the 1980s, Dornier began developing the Die Drone Anti-Radar (DAR) product in Germany. It was intended to combat Soviet air defense systems, especially the "Cube" type. As a result, the project was cancelled due to financial problems.

The interview of the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, to the British Sky News channel was interpreted by the world community as agreement with the loss of territories under Russian control. In exchange, Ukraine will receive NATO security guarantees and, eventually, will be accepted into the alliance, but will seek to regain territories through "diplomatic means" rather than military action.

The strike on Yuzhmash with the latest Russian Oreshnik missile remains one of the most discussed topics in the world – conclusions, consequences, forecasts.

Europe is facing a harsh reality: it will have to take matters into its own hands if the United States reduces support for Ukraine, Bloomberg reports. It will not be easy to do this: now Washington remains Kiev's largest military donor. Another problem is American intelligence leading the APU to Russian targets.

The United States is updating and modernizing the nuclear triad, according to the Roscongress report, which is available to RIA Novosti.

The Ukrainian air defense system does not have sufficient capabilities to repel combined attacks by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation

In response to the incessant attacks on Russian territory by American missiles, the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff of the Russian army are selecting targets to hit on the territory of Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the CSTO summit in Astana. The armed forces of the Russian Federation give a decent response to the enemy's attacks with Western long-range missiles, but try not to raise the degree of escalation too much, according to military experts interviewed by Izvestia. On November 28, Russian troops launched a comprehensive attack with 90 missiles and 100 UAVs on military facilities in Ukraine. How effective this attack was, how it copes with such enemy air defense strikes, what the response may be in case of continued shelling from the Ukrainian side, is in the Izvestia material.

The American company AEVEX Aerospace, which developed the Phoenix Ghost family of kamikaze drones, decided to share details about previously highly classified drones that have already participated in the Ukrainian conflict.
