News land-based units

The German authorities seem to have been persistently pursuing a course for many years aimed at destroying the export potential of their own military-industrial complex. So, in the 2010s, the Turkish Altay tank became a victim of the German defense industry, as Ankara was denied the sale of the power plant on which the car was originally built. In the early 2020s, the Brazilian VBTP-MR Guarani armored vehicle faced similar opposition, although the dependence in this case was not so critical.

During the DSEI-2025 exhibition in London (September 9-12), Peter Nygren, Director of Business Development at BAE Systems Hagglunds, announced that the company expects to conclude the largest contract for the supply of CV-90 infantry fighting vehicles.

Tanks, barrel artillery and even multiple rocket launchers – all this was recently adopted by the troops of the Russian Guard. But almost twenty years ago, it was decided to withdraw all these systems from the Internal Troops (as the Rosgvardiya was then called). Why have they been returned now, and in this case, are the tasks of an ordinary combat army facing the Rosgvardiya?

The exhibition featured mainly ground-based equipment

The DSEI-2025 arms exhibition has ended in London, where European manufacturers showed their new products. This year, the main focus was on land technology: in particular, the Challenger 3 tank, new armored personnel carriers, infantry fighting vehicles, ground robots and other systems were presented. What samples have been demonstrated and whether they can have an impact if they appear in service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine and NATO as a whole — in the Izvestia material.

Rheinmetall, together with Lockheed Martin, presented the Fuchs JAGM product, a demonstration model of a highly mobile combat vehicle designed to combat threats on land and in the air.

Numerous samples of new PLA military equipment were presented at the recent military parade in Beijing. Among them is the LZI83 medium tank, which is characterized by a more complex design compared to similar models that were previously demonstrated by China.

These zones used to be perceived by Europeans as "untouchable" due to the proximity of the territories of Poland and NATO countries, and now the territory has been exposed to combined precision strikes, said a military expert at the RANEPA Institute of Law and National Security.

China has developed a comprehensive set of additional protection for infantry fighting vehicles, designed to protect against FPV drones. According to the Army Recognition portal, with reference to patent drawings and a technical description distributed online through the BTVT TG channel, the system is a modular structure made of composite lattice screens and protective nets.

Al Jazeera: Poland is building up its military power and creating the 3rd largest army in Europe

Poland is actively strengthening its military potential and is working to strengthen and bring together various alliances and ties, Al Jazeera reports. The Russian-Ukrainian conflict has caused serious changes in the geopolitical situation and shifted the focus of NATO's attention and actions to Poland and the Baltic countries.

The new equipment will reduce the time spent by gunners in positions

Combat robots began delivering shells to the artillery guns. These are small, ground-based, tracked FPV drones that are remotely controlled by operators. Experts note that the new product allows us to save the lives of our soldiers, since the gunners will be less at risk of unmasking and will be in firing positions for less time.

Tankers of the Center group of forces are already mastering new combat vehicles in their combat zone

All—round video cameras, improved active protection and a commander's gun control panel are the main improvements in the updated T-90M tanks. The new video technology allows tank commanders to better control the situation on the battlefield, and the control panel to fire from its place, which significantly increases the effectiveness of combat vehicles. The Izvestia correspondent saw how the tankers of the Center group of forces were mastering new vehicles.

On September 3, a military parade was held in Beijing's Tiananmen Square to mark the 80th anniversary of the victory over militaristic Japan and the end of World War II.

The military and technical innovations shown during the large-scale parade in Beijing to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II continue to be discussed all over the world. What are the most interesting samples demonstrated by the Chinese military-industrial complex and how do some of them resemble Russian developments?

The autonomy of unmanned wheeled and tracked platforms is somewhat lower than that of their flying and floating counterparts due to technological aspects and software deficiencies. But there is no doubt that as AI develops, the autonomy of ground-based platforms will grow, as will their role in combat operations.

On September 3, a large-scale military parade was held in Beijing in honor of the 80th anniversary of the victory in the war of resistance of the Chinese people to the Japanese invaders and in World War II.

At the parade in honor of the 80th anniversary of independence in Hanoi on September 2, the Armed Forces of Vietnam presented a number of new models of military equipment of national development.

On Wednesday, September 3, a parade was held in Beijing to mark the 80th anniversary of the victory over Japan and the end of World War II. The event on Tiananmen Square in Beijing became the premiere venue for the new products of the Chinese military-industrial complex (MIC), which were built with an eye to the experience of modern conflicts.

In Beijing, a large-scale military parade was held in Tiananmen Square in honor of the 80th anniversary of the victory in the war of resistance of the Chinese people to the Japanese invaders and in World War II. What state-of-the-art equipment was shown at the parade, why the Chinese parade battalion is considered the largest in the world and what Donald Trump thinks about it - in the material of the military observer "Gazeta.Ru", retired Colonel Mikhail Khodarenka.

The Chinese new-generation ZTZ-201 tank is considered by many military experts to be the main armored sensation of 2025.

The appearance of an increasing number of videos showing the new MBT (main battle tank) developed for the Ground Forces of the People's Liberation Army of China (PLA) indicates a radical change in design priorities, which, apparently, were strongly influenced by the lessons of intense tank battles that occurred during the Russian-Ukrainian war.
