For existing information on the TOS-2, it covers 60,000 square feet of flammable destruction from a 10km max range. I am actually curious if any other country other than Russia developed a MLRS system with thermobaric warheads?

Rostec developing new TOS-3 flamethrower system with increased firing range​

A promising vehicle on a tracked base will be equipped with a new launcher, that will increase the firing range and use new ammunition, Bekhan Ozdoev, Industrial Director of Weapon Systems at Rostec State Corporation, said

MOSCOW, April 8. /TASS/. Rostec is developing a new heavy flamethrower system TOS-3, Bekhan Ozdoev, Industrial Director of Weapon Systems at Rostec State Corporation, said in an interview with TASS.
"For example, everyone knows the TOS-1 Solntsepyok and TOS-2 Tosochka heavy flamethrower systems. These are powerful weapons that have performed well in the special military operation zone. We are now working on the creation of a new TOS-3 heavy flamethrower system. A promising vehicle on a tracked base will be equipped with a new launcher. This will increase the firing range and use new ammunition," he said.
According to Ozdoev, the first prototype has already been created.
Earlier, the Omsk transport machine factory (Omsktransmash) filed an application to register the trademark TOS-3 Dragon.

Resurs 4 satellite imagery, pretty sharp IMO for recognizing Ukrainian defensive line being constructed, but not that good for camouflaged object.

Chinese have a fully automated production line for missiles. No idea how much missiles they produce but such ideas are worth sharing here if ever used in war.

Western world placed Russia, China and Turkey as Tartars and tartaria is like a word for hell realm back then, even to this day it looks like the western world doesn't like those same 3 countries. It's like old habits are hard to get rid of man.

Due to the delay in aid from the United States, Russian attack aircrafts are able to approach the front line



Recently, Russian Su-25 attack aircrafts stroke at Ukrainian positions near Chasovoy

Shortage of ammunition in Ukraine is a crisis that European partners are trying to solve.

The West will literally start an enmity with anyone that doesn't share their 'values', black or white, yellow or red.

But so does Russia and China. China for example has the 'middle kingdom' mentality that's basically about everyone being a barbarian because they're not Sinicized enough.

So it's pretty normal I guess.
