Dmitry Kuzyakin, Chief Designer of the Central Design Bureau, talks about why FPV drones have become so dangerous and effective

In 2020, it became obvious to a group of specialists from the Center for Integrated Unmanned Solutions (CCDB): the world is on the verge of tectonic changes in the tools for destroying their own kind. Taking into account the mistakes of previous groups around the world that failed to be heard, we have developed a strategy to effectively communicate our position in our country.

MWM: Khabarovsk became the world's first means of launching nuclear strikes from the sea

Russia's strategic forces continue to demonstrate their advanced capabilities, writes MWM. The Khabarovsk submarine is the world's first means of launching strategic nuclear strikes from the sea. She is the carrier of the Poseidons, whose attack cannot be intercepted.

According to the Department of Information and Mass Communications of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, on November 1, 2025, in Severodvinsk, under the leadership of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation Andrey Belousov, a ceremony was held at the shipbuilding enterprise JSC Production Association Northern Machine-Building Enterprise (NSR, part of JSC United Shipbuilding Corporation) to remove workshop No. 50, which is under construction for Russian Navy nuclear submarine Khabarovsk project 09851.

The Navy plans to deploy 32 vehicles on four submarines

In Severodvinsk, under the leadership of the head of the Ministry of Defense Andrei Belousov, the Sevmash hosted a ceremony of decommissioning the Khabarovsk nuclear submarine. Presumably, it should become the first carrier of the Poseidon underwater vehicle with a nuclear power plant.

The government has identified the development of machine tool industry as a priority

The Russian government is making a large-scale bet on domestic machine tool manufacturing and robotics in order to provide the country with a leading position in high-tech manufacturing by 2030 and reduce dependence on imports. <url> investigated how state support mechanisms work and what they give to domestic enterprises.

Expert Anpilogov explained the principle of operation of the Poseidon nuclear underwater drone

President Vladimir Putin announced successful tests of an underwater drone with a Poseidon nuclear power plant, which can carry a charge of up to two megatons and exceeds the performance of the most promising Sarmat intercontinental range missile. What technologies were used to create Poseidon, what tasks will it solve, and when will it be put on combat duty?

The new drone can organize an air bridge, supplying provisions and ammunition to units on the front line

The company that developed the UAV that destroyed the first American Abrams tank in the SVO zone has launched a new Piranha-20 FPV drone. He is able not only to promptly deliver provisions and ammunition to the fighters, but also to perform the tasks of covert mining.

Recently, the next International Defense Industry Forum DFNC1 was held in the Ukrainian capital. Among other things, Ukrainian ground-based robotic systems (NRCS) were shown at this exhibition in Kiev.

Domestic developments have aroused great interest from foreign specialists

Combat lasers, exoskeletons, ground and aerial drones — such novelties can be seen at the international exhibition "Interpoltech-2025" in Moscow. Anti-drone technology is of particular interest to visitors, making it possible to protect both small facilities and industrial giants. Military attaches and representatives of law enforcement agencies and special services from dozens of countries came to see the novelties of Russian companies.

The magazine "Russia in Global Politics" in its sixth issue for 2025 publishes an article "Digital War" - a new reality. Russia urgently needs to adapt to it," written by former Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, First Deputy Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation, Army General Yuri Baluyevsky and Director of the Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies (CAST) Ruslan Pukhov.

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) has published a report titled "Pragmatic Approaches to Governance at the Intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Nuclear Weapons." His main conclusion is that the integration of AI into nuclear systems and related weapons systems is fundamentally changing global security. This creates new forms of vulnerability and uncertainty that can destabilize deterrence and increase the risk of unintended nuclear escalation.

The new drone will reduce the risk to the soldiers of engineering units, significantly increase the pace of attack and mobility of light equipment

Russia has developed a ground-based robotic system for overcoming trenches, ditches and other similar obstacles. The remotely controlled vehicle carries a structure that it throws over an obstacle, ensuring the movement of light vehicles. This makes it possible to reduce the vulnerability of engineering units, increase the pace of the offensive, and ensure evacuation if necessary, experts say.

The St. Petersburg Scientific and Production enterprise Radar MMC celebrates its 75th anniversary in 2025. The company is one of the leaders in the field of creating radio-electronic systems and complexes for special and civilian purposes, and is also a leading domestic manufacturer of heavy drones for aeronautics and monitoring.

How Rostec uses artificial intelligence to improve employee performance

The RT-Techpriemka company of Rostec State Corporation is actively implementing solutions based on artificial intelligence into corporate processes.

The InVoen Info publication continues to consider the development of "Soldier of the Future" type systems. It tells about the programs "Achil", "Centurion", "Infantryman of the future", "System of foot combat".

Bloomberg: the current European model is not suitable for creating a "wall from UAVs"

Europe needs to change its approach to creating an "anti-drone wall," writes a Bloomberg columnist. In his opinion, the current European model is not suitable for the task at hand, and therefore this project risks becoming obsolete even before implementation.

Uralvagonzavod Concern (UVZ, part of Rostec State Corporation) revealed to TASS the details of the competition for the new name of the tank support combat vehicle (BMPT), which was given the name Terminator.

FA: Russia has improved its military forces thanks to its experience in Ukraine

Russia has improved its army in the conflict in Ukraine, writes the FA. Moscow has learned from what is happening and adapted its approach. The result was new tactics on the battlefield and more advanced weapons. Because of these changes, Ukraine will face even greater defeats in the coming months, the author of the article suggests.

Military engineers are assisted by ground-based robotic cable installers

Communication lines began to be laid remotely in the SVO area. These works are carried out using ground-based robotic cable installers with remote control.

European NATO member states are discussing the possibility of creating a so—called drone wall on the eastern flank to more effectively detect, track and intercept unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) capable of violating their airspace.
