The drone-missile is a new development of the Ukrainian arms industry. "Peklo" can fly at a speed of 700 kilometers per hour, and the maximum flight distance is more than 700 km...
P.S. In order to successfully defend itself, it is important for Ukraine to develop its own military industry in order to reduce its dependence on the politically weak and deeply corrupt West...Long-range weapons are very useful for striking deep into Russian territory...
New air defenses on top of Russia's Ministry of Defense headquarters and another building likely point to concerns about Ukrainian strikes.
It’s Day 331 (or is it 332?) of Putin’s three day “special operation” in Ukraine. Russia is now installing anti-aircraft systems on roofs of government buildings in Moscow.
When an invader starts devoting resources to defending its own capital, you know that things aren’t going according to plan.
With help from Google Maps, I’ve calculated that the nearest point in Ukraine to Moscow is 276 miles/455 km. That’s about the same air distance Chicago is to Columbus or Berlin is to Frankfurt. That’s a significant reach for a drone.
The Russian military appears to have emplaced Pantsir air defense systems on top of at least two different government buildings in Moscow, including the Ministry of Defense's headquarters. The official reason for the apparent deployments is unclear, but Ukrainian forces have demonstrated their ability to conduct strikes at extended ranges using various types of drones. There could be other explanations, including this just being part of an ostensible exercise of some kind.
Multiple pictures and videos reportedly showing the rooftop Pantsirs began to emerge on social media earlier today, but it is not immediately clear when exactly they were taken. In addition to the one on top of the headquarters of Russia's Defense Ministry, another looks to have been craned onto a building that is slightly closer to the city center and that Google Maps says belongs to the country's Ministry of Education.
It’s not unusual to have air defense systems in place around sensitive areas. The 9/11 attacks led to a defense upgrade in Washington and other locales in the US. But the timing of these rooftop Pantsirs in Moscow is rather revealing.
Representatives of Ukraine's state-run defense conglomerate Ukroboronprom claimed last week to have completed testing of a new strike drone design with a range of 1,000 kilometers (just over 620 miles). Reports about this system first emerged late last year.
Russia claimed it attacked Ukraine to protect its security. But as a result of the invasion Russia is now less secure and has demonstrated to the rest of the world that its army is shit and must rely on convicts and mercenaries who are forced to make suicidal attacks.
Russia is now weaker than at any time in the past 31 years. As a result of the invasion, NATO is more united than ever and is even expanding. Everybody hates Russia except for its client states like North Korea, Iran, and Syria.
If Putin doesn’t end his reckless war soon he will be needing a lot more Pantsirs on rooftops. The best option for Russian security is to get out of Ukraine ASAP and to start acting like a normal country.
İdef’te köklü Ukrayna firmalarından Ukroboronprom standında silahlı insansız kara aracı Fantom’u incelemiştim. Gelecekte bu araçların mini ihalarla birlikte meskun mahal çatışmalarında hayati öneme sahip olacakları kuşkusuz. Üzerinde mühimmat ve personel de taşıyabilen Fantom personel tarafından uzaktan kontrol ediliyor, keşif-gözetleme-istihbarat görevlerinin yanısıra ciddi bir ateş gücü desteği sağlıyor. Fuarda bulunan bu araçta anti-tank ve 12.7mm’lik silah sistemi entegre edilmiş durumda.
