Where did the toad jump?
According to Basurin, an attempt to approach the positions of the DPR troops took place during the week. At the same time, the Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance group uncovered itself, striking against a minefield.
The whole truth about the defeat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine under Gorlovka: a technique burning after the "toad jump"
In the DPR announced the loss of military equipment APU under Gorlovka
SBU told about the death of their special forces in the Donbas
Somehow, this time right away, one of the best armies of the continent didn’t work. She got used to it - to jump into the gray zone, hang out, and then put up her positions at the front auction - who will give more. Now, the auction didn’t work well, because mines ... In addition, one of the best armies of the continent unsuccessfully entered the kebab in the forest belt under the Gorlovka - several barbecue players with barbecues were not counted as a result. But isn’t this somehow canceling peremog? ..

Is armor strong?
Three artillery boats from the Caspian flotilla transferred to the Sea of Azov. Boats made the transition from Astrakhan and arrived in Kerch on May 23, 2018. According to reports, the purpose of the transfer is to strengthen the protection of the Kerch Bridge and increase military pressure on Ukraine in the Sea of Azov. The transferred artillery boats - two armored boats of project 1204 (code Bumblebee) and one boat of project 1400M (code "Vulture").
The rhetoric of the Ukrainian "partners" is such that, if you want - you do not want, strengthening the Kerch area along with the entire Azov water area is a matter necessary by definition. After all, provocations, especially after the “murder of Babchenko”, even the most uprooted, became the norm for the glorifiers of the glorious digging of the Black Sea.

The Ukrainian State Concern "Ukroboronprom" 24 of May 2018 of the year stated that the state-owned enterprise "A.A. Morozov Kharkiv Design Bureau of Mechanical Engineering", which is part of the State Corporation "Ukroboronprom", is working on the creation of new-generation combat vehicles, which should be put into service Ukrainian army in 2020-ies. Designers and engineers of the KMDB are now focused on building the BMP-U, a new infantry fighting vehicle, which should replace the BMP-1 and BMP-2.
Brilliant Ukrainian decisions on military equipment are the norm of today. Substituting the “necessary” letter and passing it off as the latest development is what else. But there is a pencil superweapon from the series tank Tirex, the Ukrainian destroyer Armat. A separate conversation about the fact that “Armat” is still so much that it is only for parade defile, but the fact remains: some are thrown with hats, others with pencils.

PAK YES. Still a flying wing?
In the distant future, the first prototype aircraft created under the project “Perspective aviation long-range aviation complex ”(PAK DA). At the moment, this project is at the stage of design work and therefore most of the information about it is not yet subject to disclosure. However, from time to time, new reports and assessments appear in the domestic and foreign press. In recent months, the total amount of information available on PAK YES has increased markedly.
If you believe the information that leaks out on the PAK DA project, they decided, as they say, to sink for the flying wing. The main thing is that, ultimately, the project does not remain in the format of colorful drawings, but still got to the Russian Aerospace Council. And it didn’t just come, but became a new pivot of long-range aviation development.

- the concept of "flying wing" is a "dead end" / "stupid decision"
- stealth is not needed by anyone, they see radar without problems
However, practice shows that both statements are lies and / or hypocrisy - nothing else can explain the fact that the Russian Federation, albeit with a delay of 20-30 years, but goes the same way.
Personally, I am quite normal in a situation where I am “foolish” and I understand that I need to “copy” based on the experience of my neighbors. I see nothing wrong with that. The whole history of the countries is saturated with this. Physics is the same for everyone.
It annoys me when the howl in the spirit of the saucepan holders comes up, "fu-y, they have handicrafts, but ours ...", and then it turns out that these "handicrafts" are the future.

First of all, no one claimed "that the" flying wing "is a dead end road" !! (If you can provide SPECIFIC LINKS for specific materials - please "in the studio" !!).
Secondly, no one claimed that the “flying wing” was MORE noticeably than the machines of the “traditional orientation”.
Yes! They are less noticeable, although their radars EVERYTHING EQUALLY see (!). Just the detection range is reduced!
By the way, B-2 was criticized (and deservedly so!) For the accepted concept of application - it was originally intended to deliver free-falling thermonuclear bombs to the enemy’s territory (ie, must leak through the air defense system !!!!!). When the amers "reached", that "a fig won't come out," they began to adapt it to "Tomahawks" .... As a result, the topic "B-21" appeared ...

Cyborgs you are not cyborgs
Ukrainian soldiers continue to leave the ranks of their units directly on the front line. At the same time, some of them flee to the rear and try to hide from the Ukrainian justice, while others, realizing that they are unlikely to escape in the end, decide to go over to the side of the people's republics of Donbass.
You, mummers, half of Kiev. How the driver spoke to the veteran "ATO"
The tendency speaks about the attitude of atoshnikas towards themselves and ordinary Ukrainian citizens towards athoshniki. The overwhelming majority of the population does not see their defenders dressed in camouflage. And then the anti-press adds the Poroshenko team (to the elections), declaring that among the “veterans of the ATO” there is literally no place for the number of “Kremlin agents” who, through one, “receive money from Putin’s fund”. And the foundation is apparently so secret that even Vladimir Putin himself is neither dreaming nor in spirit about his existence.
By the way, where is the famous cyborg boldness? ..

Why fear "heroes", why hide their faces? Or maybe they are afraid of revenge and understand perfectly well that they are criminals.
Give gas and a billion!
In Europe, began to arrest the property of "Gazprom". Swiss bailiffs began to implement the decision of the Stockholm arbitration, according to which our gas giant has to pay 2,6 billion dollars to the Ukrainian Naftogaz.
There is no gas at HPP-5 of Kharkov, and in Naftogaz they celebrate their victory
The blue dream of Naftogaz, like the Ukrainian authorities of any era of independence, is a pipe with Russian gas to Europe, which can be used as a health resort, a breadbasket and a forge. Pipeline without gas in the interests of Kiev, of course, is not included. But the uproarness has reached such an incredible scale that they will continue to do everything so that the new pipe will go through anyone, but not through the territory of Ukraine.
So, I think, it will take several years and the Ukrainian Rumen Raden and / or Boyko Borisov will arrive in Sochi or Moscow and declare that the older and the big always have to forgive the younger and the youngest, and that it’s necessary to keep the gas pipe through Ukrainian lands. And Russia, as a good soul, will say: Well, brother, so be it.

Is it possible that KamAZ and Urals will retire?
In 2018, the Russian Armed Forces will begin to receive new Tornado cars, Lieutenant-General Alexander Shevchenko, head of the Main Automobile and Armored Directorate of the Defense Ministry of the Russian Federation, told on the radio Echo of Moscow.

Of course, there is no change, but as a supplement, yes.

Su-57 beats F-35, then F-35 beats Su-57
The only thing that Lockheed Martin, together with the Norwegian Kongsberg Defense Systems, can oppose to our Su-57, is the final development and adaptation to the two “close” inside-body compartments of the Lightning tactical missile JSM with a range of more than 300 km developed on the base the well-known anti-ship NSM especially for the Norwegian Air Force.
“Drying” against F-35A with “trump” ammunition: a dangerous alignment in the Far Eastern sky
If you read the analytics in the Western press, then it is such that today the F-35 utterly smashes the Su-57 squadron, and the American pilot is watching "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" on the screen of the multimedia helmet, and tomorrow Su-57 suddenly becomes so great, that neither the F-35, nor the F-22 and his socks are suitable.

Four dead
The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation confirmed the information about the tragic incident in the Syrian Arab Republic. Killed four Russian soldiers.
The artillery battery of the Syrian army, which had several Russian military instructors, was attacked at night by mobile militant groups. Events developed in the province of Deir ez-Zor. Militants used pick-ups and opened fire on large-caliber infantry servicemen of the CAA and Russian Armed Forces weapons, mortars and grenade launchers.
Russian and Syrian soldiers took the fight. By fire artillery, the militants were repelled, but attempted a new attack. As a result of the battle, two Russians died on the spot, another five were injured of varying degrees of severity, mostly fragmentation. Militants also suffered losses - at least 43 killed.
"Military Review" together with the families and relatives of the victims mourns the heroes.
All Russian military personnel involved in heavy fighting, submitted to state awards.

By the way, as an example of a well-organized defense of the object, the attack of Wagner’s men and locals near Deir Ez-Zor against the Americans can be given. Intelligence, monitoring of the terrain, interception of radio communications and instant air support clearly showed how these attacks ended. Of the 40 US special forces, who were at the facility, there was no loss.

Militants kill ... impossible!
The United States warned the Syrian government about the inadmissibility of hostilities against the militants in the south-west of the country. State Department spokesperson H. Nauert said that if the Syrian army launches an operation in the de-escalation zone, the United States will take "decisive, appropriate measures." Also, the State Department spokeswoman said that the United States remains committed to ensuring stability in the de-escalation zone, and the “Assad regime” with the support of Russia and Iran constantly violates the cease-fire and continues the conflict.
The first serious test for Moscow and Damascus in the enclave war and the secret of US iron calm
The warning from Mrs. Nauert is very curious. And indicative. The fact is that the Syrian army, with the assistance of the Russian videoconferencing, just finished freeing the militants from the suburbs of Damascus, captured by the "oppositionists" seven years ago, in 2011 year.
The State Department doesn’t like very much the rapid decrease in the area controlled by the armed “democratic opposition”. And it would be not bad if the Syrian army, and at the same time the Russians and the Iranians, stopped to liberate the territories from the bearded ones and listened to what the clever aunts and uncles from the USA say.
The transatlantic hegemon seems to teach: it is not the voices of reason that must be obeyed, but the voices of Washington.

Abdallah's error
The Russian Ministry of Defense sharply commented on the publication in the Lebanese and Israeli editions of information that the Su-34 Russian Aerospace Forces aircraft intercepted the Israeli F-16. Recall, initially this kind of information appeared on the Lebanese information portal AMN and several portals of Israel, and it was noted that there is no exact data whether it was the interception of the Su-34 of F-16 aircraft, "or vice versa."
The Russian defense department called this kind of publication "amateurish stupidity": "Information disseminated by one of the Israeli news resources, about the alleged "interception" by Russian Su-34s of two Israeli F-16s in Lebanese airspace - amateurish stupidity. " It was noted that, although the Su-34s have the functions of not only a bomber, but also a fighter, they are not used by the Russian Aerospace Forces to intercept any aircraft.
Amateurish stupidity. Defense Ministry about intercepting Su-34 Israeli aircraft
The primary source of “information” about “interceptions” appears to be video frames on the Internet. They published a user Abdullah Samra. It is on them that Lebanese and Israeli resources based their publications. Abdullah claimed that a Russian Su-34 was seen over Lebanon, accompanying Israeli military aircraft (“or vice versa”). On the frame, however, there was only one plane! In the Israeli media, however, they suggested that (if the cadres are truly Lebanese), it could have been about “the exercises of the Russian Aerospace Force of the Russian Federation near the border of Syria and Lebanon”.
With this analytical approach, any aircraft in the sky can be the source of dozens of conspiracy hypotheses. Yes, with such a predilection not for long and see a UFO in the sky over Lebanon! Especially for Eastern experts, "VO" reports: aliens also help Russians.
And now a little bit of the most common truth: the Russian Su-34 does not perform tasks in Lebanese airspace.

Unclear liability
The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands made a statement regarding the crash of the Malaysian "Boeing" in the sky over the Donbas in July 2014. After statements by the Minister of Transport of Malaysia that he considers the statements of the Dutch prosecutor’s office about Russia's fault to be unproven, the head of the Dutch Foreign Ministry, Stef Blok, said that the Netherlands did not rule out that ultimately the blame could be placed on the Ukrainian side. In particular, the speech came about the fact that official Kiev violated international norms, not taking care to close the airspace of the country during the hostilities on its territory. True, Blok noted that for the time being there are no sufficient grounds to assert that Ukraine’s responsibility is obvious.
In the Netherlands, do not exclude the guilt of Kiev for downed "Boeing"
This is what happens? There are grounds for pointing the finger at Russia (this is exactly what the Minister of Transport of Malaysia called this action), despite the lack of evidence, but the reasons for the investigation into the obvious facts of the guilt of Ukraine ... are not obvious?
On the other hand, the Netherlands, which previously declared Russia’s fault, will still have to answer questions about what actions it has not taken, and which, on the contrary, Ukraine took on that terrible day for civil aviation. Ukraine will have to answer: after all, it not only did not close the airspace, but also led the plane over the epicenter of the fighting. It is also known that after the catastrophe Kiev “hid” the Dnepropetrovsk dispatchers and has not yet disclosed the details of their talks with the crew members of the MH17 board.
Unclear responsibility, speak?

The army is, no weapons and ammunition
The German press publishes materials on the shortcomings of Ursula von der Lyayen as the Minister of Defense of Germany. It turns out that special commissions, including the Counting Commission of the Budget Committee of the Parliament, revealed facts of "fake" reports on military equipment put into service with the Bundeswehr. Many of the weapons systems that the ministry designated as “ready for action” were in fact not. For example, corvettes, officially classified as "combat-ready", or did not have weapons at the time of surrender to the troops, or these weapons did not respond to the declared functionality. Revealed not even ready-to-use guided missiles!
What are the suitable ships and submarines that are not equipped with weapons? What is the navy capable of if there are no missiles? And really such a fleet of "combat"? Questions rhetorical. Not good, Ursula! Doing postscript! But times are tough, the “Russian threat” is on the threshold!
Recall that this kind of problem in the German army voiced in the press is not the first time.
Last year, for example, it turned out that the German army in the most serious way exhausted stock of ammunition.
In 2015 was passed informationthat on the teachings the Germans are fighting instead of machine guns with cuttings from shovels (or, according to poorly verified rumors, from broomstick), imitating the sounds of shooting with their mouths. "Ta-ta-ta ... Ta-ta-ta!"

Not a prospect, but a reality
Thomas Giuliano, American specialist in aerospace technology at the University of Notre Dame (Indiana), spoke about the process of creating in Russia a unique type of weapon - the Avangard complex with a hypersonic rocket unit. According to Giuliano, Russia managed to do something that nobody has yet been able to do: create a propulsion system that provides speed of movement above 10 sound speeds (10 Mach). At the same time, an American expert notes that Russia has solved the task very effectively.
And the arguments of the expert are available.
Not only Russia, but also the USA and China also tried to test their versions of hypersonic weapons. However, neither the HTV product (USA), nor DF-ZF (China) during tests showed themselves properly. Thus, the overseas expert makes it clear that the statements of Russian President Putin about the development of a promising hypersonic Avangard missile system should be taken seriously.

The Chinese praise the Chinese
The Chinese portal Sina.com has released material stating that the three leading countries of Latin America, Argentina, Brazil and Chile, have stopped buying Russian weapons, preferring Chinese. The publication writes that Russia previously supplied weapons to the above-mentioned countries (in 2013, by 928 million dollars), but by 2017, deliveries were close to zero.
The Chinese portal names two problems of the Russian military industrial complex. The first problem is competitiveness, which is supposedly based on Western developments and components. Under the sanctions Russia will not be able to buy Western components. The second problem of the Russian military industrial complex is a very low level of investment in new technologies and software development in Russia.
The conclusion of Chinese analysts, it must be assumed, also has two components. Firstly, Russian weapons are not competitive, and therefore the Russians will soon lose the world arms market. Secondly, the Russians will lose what the Chinese will take: they produce really high-quality equipment based on domestic components. Where did these components come from, analysts bashfully hold back.

On the nose is the war of NATO with Russia, and, according to the plans of the Pentagon, on Russian territory! You can not turn a blind eye to this! In the strategic plan of Russia is no longer to the market.
And if the military-industrial complex of the Russian Federation does not make a rapid replacement of imports of components as quickly as possible, then Russia can by and large lose this war - and it will definitely lose!
The government of the Russian Federation, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and the military-industrial complex of the Russian Federation needed to think about this even a year ago 2!
And now Russia needs to get out of this situation as quickly as possible.

Kick back in your seat.
Paul Craig Roberts - known economist, analyst, doctor of science. Mr. Roberts was not invited to the economic forum in St. Petersburg, but if he had been there, he would have delivered a speech on the plundering of Russia and Putin’s erroneous policy aimed at integrating with the West.
The economist of the old school Roberts advises Russia to develop without the West and even without the dollars that the Central Bank of the Russian Federation likes to operate on, and in which, exactly according to Kudrin's financial policy, the currency savings of the state that loves cups are stored. Mr. Roberts, in recent years inclined to artistic conspiracy (at least to hyperbolization), forgets, however, that Russia sells oil for dollars, and it’s not the rules of the market game that it sets. He forgets about how much the federal budget of the Russian Federation depends on petrodollars. There is also the burning issue of Western technology.
As for Putin, who is often mentioned in Roberts’s material, everything with his views on the United States is simple and clear. There can be no two opinions.
Two years ago, just at the St. Petersburg Economic Forum, the Russian president called the United States the only superpower. “America is a great power. Today, probably the only superpower. We take it, ”Putin said. He also noted that Russia wants and is ready to work with the United States: “The world needs such a powerful country as the USA. And we need. But we do not need them to constantly interfere in our affairs, indicate how we live, hinder Europe from building relations with us. ”
Russia is not a superpower, and it does not need it. Earlier, in January 2016, V. Putin said that Russia does not claim the role of a superpower: "... it is expensive and to nothing."
If you go back to Roberts' theses, then, apparently, you should conclude: it’s really time for American neo-cons to lie back in their chairs and relax.

What "explains" the citizens of Russia Paul Craig Roberts is a creeping provocation, a good attempt to set up the people against their own government and against Putin specifically. But Putin does not equal the West and the United States. GDP takes into account all their mistakes, trying to avoid those in the Russian reality. This is where the word "hybrid" becomes appropriate: one can say that Russia has a hybrid economic course. With the development of small private enterprises, large private property, serious private business with a state controlling stake and purely state enterprises.
No need to trustfully be conducted on the "analyst" Roberts, as well as any other analytics from Western "experts." All of them are gradually trying to crawl into the soul and consciousness of the Russian people, then to raise the people against the clever Russian government. And our power is smart now. At the western rate does not drift. It goes its own way, independent, at the same time not eliminating from Western investments and interacting with Western capital. And it is right. Self-isolation of Russia to us to anything.

In Russia, we have peripheral comprador oligarchic-bureaucratic capitalism with an authoritarian form of government. It is such a socio-political formation with two ruling classes - bureaucrats and oligarchs. Such a system is not capable of providing the necessary level of development for Russia.
