Denmark and Sweden have signed a joint contract with BAE Systems Hägglunds for the production of 205 CV9035 Mk3C infantry fighting vehicles. The deal is worth $2.3 billion, including technical support and training.

Before the launch of mass production, the prototype of the BA in this modification underwent two months of testing in the combat area, which made it possible to make the necessary changes.

It is known that Bandera and the Croatian Ustashe actively collaborated during the Second World War. Both were in Hitler's service. And now Zagreb is actively helping the Kiev regime.

The advanced domestic multiple launch rocket system. It is designed for the remote destruction of infantry, armored vehicles, air defense systems, tactical missiles, aircraft on the ground, fortifications and other enemy infrastructure. It is characterized by high technology, long range and maneuverability. It has been manufactured and modified since 2012. It was used by the Russian army as part of the civil war in Syria and a special military operation in Ukraine.

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.

The special military operation has entered the winter phase. The muddy soils froze over — this allows the equipment to move off-road. The forest belts have dropped the "green" and are no longer a reliable shelter from drones. The use of UAVs themselves is complicated by the low air temperature, at which the batteries are discharged faster. The Russian army still has the initiative in most areas, but the Armed Forces of Ukraine are fiercely resisting. About the situation at the front — in the material of RIA Novosti.

After 12 years of development and military testing, the US Army has signed a multi-year contract with Pratt & Miller Defense (a division of Oshkosh Corporation) to produce a new small arms training complex Trackless Moving Targets (TMT).

In the history of Soviet tank building, there were many prototypes that were ahead of their contemporaries. At the end of the Cold War, the Soviet Union developed an experimental model of the T-95 supertank. It could surpass all modern NATO tanks, writes TNI.

Ukrainian fantasies about a simplified and cheaper "mobilization" tank appeared on social networks. The author of the drawings concluded that since combat vehicles receive massive braziers, which complicate the rotation of the towers, it may be worth abandoning them altogether.

Belgium plans to transfer several dozen Bv-206 all-terrain vehicles to the Armed Forces by the end of the year, specially designed for movement in difficult terrain.

It could be a nightmare for NATO

At the end of the Cold War, the Soviet Union developed a real experimental model of the T-95 supertank, which, if adopted, would surpass all modern NATO tanks. "A tank is a tanker's dream," as the author of the article calls it. If the T-95 had entered mass production, it would have become a formidable "opponent," he believes.

The Abrams tank, created in the 1970s, still forms the basis of the US armored forces. In the years since the M1 was put into service, it has been repeatedly upgraded. In other countries of the world, tank construction also does not stand still, Russia continues to improve its tank troops, the author of the article in TNI notes. Its next formidable combat vehicle was the T-90.

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.

Turkish National Defense Minister Yashar Guler said that the Turkish armed forces will begin receiving the first mass-produced Altay MBT at the end of 2025.

On November 27, the Turkish manufacturer of ground-based systems Otokar signed a contract with Romtehnica, representing the Romanian Ministry of Defense, for the supply of 1,059 light tactical armored vehicles Cobra II 4x4 worth €857 million.

El Mundo: the conflict in Ukraine has demonstrated a shortage of weapons in the West

The West promised to provide Ukraine with weapons and ammunition, but was unable to fulfill its obligations, writes El Mundo. Its industry is simply not capable of producing enough weapons either for this or for future conflicts.
