Quite an insightful video explaining the "Siloviki" and their relationship with Putin.

Though I won't engage in political discussions, I must say these recent developments are concerning. This is a matter of national security.

They have lost the plot

Could indeed be the case. Kazakhstan is also acquiring a lot of Turkish military tech. In fact, Aselsan has a big presence there with KAE. I don't think Russia is too happy about that.

You probably accidentally tapped that button. Tap it again, it should fix the problem.

Having both would be great! 7 dedicated tankers + 7 multirole.

There are rumours that we might get some. Conversions from THY fleet to be specific. According to the rumours we will convert 7 of them to MRTT spec in order to replace our KC-135Rs.

"Sefine is working with several Turkish companies including Aselsan for the autonomous unmanned vehicles (AUV) that could be deployed from the ship, and which can be equipped with different payloads such as torpedoes, anti-ship missiles, rockets, jammers, etc." USV mothership? Imagine the...

Truth be told, there is probably other tanks and IFVs nearby. It's not them being alone which is the problem. It's a combination of other factors.

Yep. Also, there is a total lack of air support, or infantry to go along with it. Any armored vehicle is a sitting duck, especially in urban areas with hidden enemy troops. It seems like Russia hasn't learned much from the conflicts of the past decade. But more concerningly, they aren't even...
