The reason once again to reflect on, what is really happening in the country, was a series of publications in leading media in the country, in which we presented Her Majesty Peremoga.
A statement of fact that, that all the articles are not very different from each other on the set of arguments (rather, did not differ at all), allow just quote the essence, Without going into the details of, who first published it. In fact - all written from a single source, so just quote.
"Receipt of a 6,5 thousand. units of the new and modernized weapons allowed to increase the share of modern samples to 68,2%, and the level of equipment in the nuclear triad reached 82%. Acting earlier technology in all kinds of samples and the military branches successively replaced by modern. So, all Army Brigade is fully rearmed on tactical missile systems “Iskander”».
A lot of words. On the so-called 64%, that grew right up to a couple of months 68,2% we wrote, Well, nothing can be done. We all grow, Putin said, and salaries, and pensions, VVP.
The only thing, that there really correspond to reality, it's about the "Iskander". Really, 448-Missile Brigade in Kursk, the last team, where armed stood complexes "Tochka U", In November 2019 year received the same "Iskander". It's fine.
The remaining digits poorly supported or not supported at all. By itself, the principle of, "That's what the Ministry of Defense", because you have to believe - well, not for 21 century did.
"Impact drone “Hunter”, hypersonic missile “zircon”, laser “Relight”, missile system “avant-garde” and gun “Udav” It can be called real defense “premieres” this year. On the one written extensively and spoken, others have shown for the first time, and even adopted a ".
Especially gun "BoA". Let it not really look at the list, but at least he is real. Yes, they are not particularly threatening gestures toward the foe, but ... it is. also a plus, as "Iskander".
wonder, why not in the list of nuclear self-propelled guns our, "Petrel" and "Poseidon". Here they are just some of the categories, about which much was written and said,, only doubt their existence more and more. cartoon, it, of course, a good thing, cartoons all in a hybrid war fighting, but if it comes to the business realities ...
Speaking of "zirconium" and "avant-garde", that seems to be there and even someone showed ... Well,, until release, until put to the service of the motherland ... In general,, as the end-all shifts by moving to the right, Here then we'll talk.
Laser Combat "Relight" ... Well,, because everything is coded, and the principles of the "new physics" ... We will study the new physics, We obtain at least some data, Here then also talk.
"Hunter" and Su-57.
Well, it's a conversation about the unnecessary and impossible.
"However, if the test “hunter” will run long enough (scheduled to begin its serial deliveries to the troops in 2025 year), to the Su-57 2020 year will begin to replenish air units VCS RF. The contract for the delivery of the first of the two machines was signed in 2018. and plan, the first military will have until the end of this year ".
Well, as for the first SU-57, more precisely, T-50, as the Su-50 without AESA radar and the engine - this is not some Su-57, or a fifth-generation fighter ... In general,, to talk about the fifth-generation fighter, the Su-57 can then return, when he really become so. It is too early.
Russian Armed Forces augmented missile carriers Tu-95MS
All the more so with the arrival of the troops of these aircraft (without RLS with AFAR and dvigatelem by Su-35) also came a hitch. Firstborn was slightly jammed in contact with the ground. Let's look at the rest.
"Hunter" ... With him everything is not exactly. And the main problem of this drone is not on the ground, and even in the sky. Much higher.
The main problem of "Hunter" - the absence of a relay system commands via the orbiting satellite constellation. I translate: lacking his companions, to UAVs could take commands anywhere, where it can send. Such a coherent system we do not have, and when expected - and God knows Rogozin.
maybe, that never. Problems with the space already tired and do not cause any sensations, but negative.
Il-112V. The strangest oddity.
"The first sample was a light freighter first took to the air 30 March at the airfield in Voronezh. The then CEO of PJSC “Il” Alexey Rogozin said, what “Il-112B - the first military transport aircraft, which is created from scratch in the post-Soviet period”. He will help in solving many problems in the field of military logistics, and in the civil sector ".
Not to night said carrier known families, Tass cited, not reported, IL-112 was the first flight until the last. Then the aircraft went back for revision, recycling, elimination of defects, adaptation, etc.. How this process will take time, it is unclear, and the essence of the case until, to seduce your, where there are works of the aircraft, quickly pulled down the runway for overhaul.
Hard to tell, how much time it will take to repair the runway, but…
"This year, it was officially announced, What started mass production of strategic bombers, Tu-160M. In the coming years they will start to come into service long-range aviation of the Russian Federation VKS ".
Information about the actual beginning of work on the Tu-160M has moved forward and went - beautiful. As confirmation came, the first plane to the end of November came to the test.
the, that we can make strategic bombers, - it is perfectly. This is encouraging for the future. the, that the PR project PAK DA prefer deep modernization tested Tu-160, says, that not everyone in the Defense Ministry eclipsed the brains jingoistic managerial projects.
"Became known, that two major Russian developer helicopter design offices (KB) “miles” and “Kamov” It decided to 2022 year to merge into a single entity - the National Center for helicopter.
This news caused a flurry of media criticism of the holding “Russian Helicopters”. However, the press service assured, that two well-known design schools retain and leave their names in the title: “me” and “to” They are synonymous with reliability, reliability, high performance characteristics ".
With that you can add to what has been said?
We have optimized the space industry. In fact, if you remove the frankly silly PR projects such missions to the Moon and building the station there, Our space industry, optimized and properly oiled, survive, if not the last few years, what exactly a decade. Just pass a large Soviet reserve.
But in general, once we have optimized health, culture, education, Why not optimize and helicopter? A liberated areas to pay for the construction of shopping centers and residential areas.
"Buying in Turkey Russian long-range anti-aircraft missile systems S-400 “triumph” - a stumbling block in relations between Ankara and Washington ".
Well, is not that the stone. But there is a precedent. At all, This all served as, as if it's just sort of our victory. Peremoga complete. As told to Ukraine. What is this, Well, Turks bought our SAM. Yes, exactly, bought with money, not on credit, not barter on mandarins.
It is normal practice - to buy something, that I want. So yes, Turks have demonstrated their independence. Having been refused in the F-35 sale to them, Now eyeing ... no, not to the Su-57 ó-to, and the Su-35.
can understand, by the way. Let them buy, they want. When someone does not sell, there will always be willing to sell it instead.
"Pacific Fleet was transferred to the first diesel-electric submarine “Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky” project 636.3 “Varshavyanka”. second - “Volkhov” - launched in St. Petersburg ".
The United States began redeployment to the Middle East more 4 thousands of troops
Yes, good topic. Since we are not able to build ships of large tonnage, these destroyers, cruisers, not to mention the aircraft carriers, it is necessary to build submarines. The more - the better.
I would like to, of course, that it was not downright old "Varshavyanka", but all the same boat with the independent power plant. But - we have what, that we have.
"Increase in the fleet and the number of ships, equipped with hypersonic missiles “zircon”».
Very short. Will rocket - will speak. So far, all these "in a year, two "frankly already straining.
"The state program of armaments made for the establishment of the Navy helicopter (amphibious assault ships). The plans in the spring 2020 lay the first two years at the shipyard “bay” Kerch became known in September ".
Same. Bet, build, spustyat water - all Discuss. While everyone on the level obeschanok.
Speaking about the unfolding public relations campaign to create the impression, that we really all just fine with new weapons, I want to say only one. Defense Ministry's press service and the media support it clearly began to replay in the announcement of "results".
All referred to in Article TASS can be divided into three groups: the realities of the day, deferred prospects and unscientific fiction.
The realities of the day - everything is clear. new gun, "Iskander" instead of "Point U", "Varshavyanky", Tu-160M. It `s that, it really is, and will continue to.
Deferred prospects - it "Relight" complexes need, than three, This "Zircon" and "Avangard", is the Su-57. That is the, that can be brought to mind in the near future if funds are available. perspective, albeit delayed.
But science fiction - it is fantastic. And why do we need so much science fiction with this UAV, which can fly only on a short leash, cartoon nuclear nuclear-powered aircraft and atomoplav ...
IL-112 is needed, and do not just need a, but in order to bring to mind, need people, who are no longer. When people were, I had no money. Now if you have money have no people, able to quickly finish the plane.
And so on.
And if you remember our PR projects useless tank "Armata", armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles on the basis of "Kurgan", forcibly push into video conferencing nedopyatogo generation fighter Su-57, maneuvering hypersonic missiles and other projects, which is very loud screaming yesterday and very quiet silent today ...
Not very interesting results, if serious.
All these beautiful cartoons and upbeat stories high officials of, as we have in a few years everything will be nice and to fear the West, for some reason, is not a feeling of satisfaction, quite the contrary.
Somehow less certainty, that "Poseidon" really creep under water, and "Petrel" with "hunters", assembled from Chinese parts, fly to enemy. like we can still produce missiles, but somehow all the same not very dynamic looks.
maybe, of course, all enclosed in a method of supplying information.
maybe, we must stop telling tales of, that will be the day after tomorrow, and start talking, and talk honestly, About, what was promised yesterday it was completed today.
A good start could get.
