Shortly after the war Samvel Babayan the Secretary of the Security Council of Artsakh claimed in the interview that 4 Tors were destroyed in first 15 days of the war. Now we got some confirmation.

So far there is no real confirmation. Its not easy to install Trophy on T-90, since Trophy requires lots of power (4 powerful AESA radars).

I think its good to change government time to time. Overall I am satisfied. That we finally passed a budget, dealt well with 4th wave of corona. No breakthroughs but nothing bad either.

Russia will bring now air defences. What Ukraine needs now: * Cheap small recon drones. * Suicide drones, which will destroy air defence systems detected by recon drones. * Decoy drones which will distract air defences and provoke them to expose themselves. * SIGINT.

Actually it was quite simple and outdated for its time (900 hp engine, 105-mm gun, no panoramic sight). But despite it it was adequate and did its job..

The Israeli newspaper “Yediot Aharonot” reported that the Israeli army had removed its Merkava-2 tank from regular and reserve service, after nearly 40 years of its use as a main tank in hostilities, in a ceremony attended by former and current officers in the armored units. The Merkava-2 was...

The UAE is Iran's top trading partner in terms of imports and the country’s third-largest export partner, indicating that many Iranian companies have put trade with the UAE on the agenda. https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/462057/Trade-between-Iran-UAE-expected-to-hit-20b-by-Mar-2022

Ironically after UAE made peace with Israel, UAE trade with Iran actually increased. Now UAE is #1 importer to Iran.

New plane means big spends on new infrastructures, maintenance problems. You dont buy a new plane unless it gives u a big advantage over existing. Super Hornet, Typhoon and F-16 block 70 are pretty much equal (Gripen weaker).

One of German Typhoons has cool decoration: Blue Flag 2019 pic: Italian Typhoon, US F-16C, Israeli F-15C, Israeli F-35A, Italian F-35A, Greek F-16C, German Typhoon.

Other than urban combat short rifle is also very important when u load/unload APC/IFV. As for weight distribution I prefer bullpup actually. You feel much less fatigue when weight is in the middle.

Su-25 does not have any SDB. A-10 and Su-25 dont have sensor fusion and networking as F-35, nowhere even close. A-10 and Su-25 lack radars so they can't lock on targets as F-35, Su-25 lacks even normal FLIR pod. Only if you bomb enemy which lacks even MANPADs, not talking about other air...
