Results of the week. No money left? There is money!
The TV channel ABC recently reported that the Australian government allegedly aware of the fact that the US plans to strike at Iranian nuclear facilities. This month, this very August. And Australia supposedly (with Britain for the company) can take part in it: to reconnoiter something and define targets for strikes. New Zealand is right there. In a word, it turns out a quartet. Of course, such television news alarmed and mere mortals, and politicians, and military experts around the world.
Strike on Iran in the near future: reality or fiction?
However, there was a lot of talk about powerful attacks on Iran “in the near future” before. A little more than on the subject of attacks on the DPRK (the North Korean theme was accompanied by well-known insults).
Reports of a potential strike on the strategic sites of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which may include a nuclear center in Tehran, research centers in Yazd and Karaj, a center for uranium enrichment in Natanz and others, appeared before, in the days before the nuclear deal intermediary countries and Iran. Mr. Netanyahu even painted “red lines” on a poster. The Americans talked about “planned” strikes against Iran’s nuclear research facilities and the beginning of the century: the topic has been periodically resurrected in the media pages since 2003, when Washington openly accused Tehran of secretly developing nuclear weapons. weapons.
The new chatter seems to bring a peculiar commemorative line under the many years of pressure on Iran on the nuclear issue: the accusations turned 15 years.

Dancer prevented ... Russian!
The US military claims that the Russian EW systems deployed in Syria have significantly complicated the work of the American coalition in this country. According to Foreign Policy, Brian Sullivan, Colonel of the American Army, who acted with his unit in northeastern Syria during the September period 2017 through May of this year, said that US forces were confronted with an "overloaded electronic environment" and had never been in similar conditions.
The American dancers, I'm sorry, the colonels and other military experts, a whole series of complaints. They say that Russians “skated” their EW systems in Syria, using modern American equipment as objects present in the theater of military operations. That is, they took and tested in practice how the American systems react to electronic warfare.
Also, experts from across the ocean do not like that Russian electronic warfare systems are extremely dangerous for aviation: they are able to "jam" literally all communication and data transmission channels.
A little more, and the American colonels and generals will start writing complaints to their congressmen, and then to the UN.

Look at invisibility
The network has materials relating to the route of the latest fighter F-35 "Adir" of the Israeli Air Force. Attention is attracted by the fact that the route of the stealth aircraft has become generally known on the Internet. Data on the flight of the Israeli military vehicle were presented on the website Flightradar24 - an open site engaged in tracking of air traffic. Anyone could observe how the F-35 "Adir" was moving during a combat mission. The coding, which was “highlighted” on the mentioned site, says that it is one of those planes that were recently transferred to Israel by an American manufacturer.
F-35 will start selling tickets soon. No, not in the pilot's cabin. At a spectacular event: look at the invisible. Barkers will shout: “Ladies and gentlemen! See the invisible F-35! Do not miss your chance! Tickets available for sale! ”
Now I understand why Israel acquired F-35. The show pays off. Americans can be sure.

"Everything! Kina will not be! Electricity is over! ”
Some people in Europe really feel better. And the cause is not the work of the super spies, not some traitors, enemies of the people, the fifth, sixth and seventh columns, but Russian army functionaries. After all, they are referred to by those foreigners who happily broadcast: you can disperse, Su-57 will not!
Everyone in Europe and Asia was pleased by the speech of the Deputy Minister of Defense of Russia, Yuri Borisov. Much to the delight of all, Borisov, during a speech on Russian television, said that Russia has no plans for mass production of the Su-57 fighter: “The mass production of the Su-57 at this stage does not make sense and will happen only after the older fourth-generation fighters Russian Air Forces will lag behind their Western counterparts. ”
And here is another curious news. American expert Tyler Rogovay believes that the Chinese J-20 is better than the Russian Su-57. According to him, China overtook Russia in the development of fighters. And in many ways this gap will widen every day. The park of Chinese J-20 is growing and developing, and the Russian program Su-57 (PAK FA) "stagnates to uselessness"!
Kina will not be! Gentlemen from the United States and NATO can rejoice. The Chinese, too, can rejoice: they praise them. Look how they develop!

So what to do?
The reserve fund was exhausted last year. Retirement - enough for 3, if you spend it as a backup. Nobody gives loans to Russia - sanctions.
Or start selling gold, or cut the budget.
This is not chivalrous
Former Deputy Shoigu, and now Deputy Prime Minister Yury Borisov, once again gave reason for foreign media to gloat over the Russians, - write commentators R. Skomorokhov and A. Staver. - On Monday, dropping a mean male tear, Mr. Borisov said that the army would be glad to buy thousands of “Almaty”, but the trouble is the price is terrifying. Our budget cannot overpower it. No ... "
It makes sense to cite the words of another expert, Alexei Leonkov from the magazine Arsenal of the Fatherland:
Here! That is why we will not release Armata. It is dishonest in relation to potential opponents! Well, how is it: our tankers will go on a “tank that has no analogues in the world” against the ancient “Leopards”? This is not chivalrous!

New breakthrough: from “Almaty” - to T-80
Once the subject of “Almaty” comes to naught in the Russian ranks, foreign experts began to analyze the “good old” technique of a potential rival. In the expert editions went materials about T-80.
Many Russian types of tanks are nominally designed to be replaced with T-14, writes The National Interest, but the modernization of old cars continues. True, many Western experts have previously found T-80 dead-end weapons. But enterprises of the Russian defense industrial complex continued to work on its modernization. And the updated version of the tank is not a joke, says the author of the publication.
Prospects for the use of T-80 and the existing generation of tanks
Among the advantages of the tank, experts have identified the following.
T-80 is the best suited for the climatic conditions of Russia. If diesel engines at negative temperatures need to warm up to 45 minutes (at -30Сº), then T-80 with a gas turbine installation is ready for combat actions a minute after the launch.
The working conditions of the T-80 crew in winter are much more comfortable than in the T-72 and T-90.
After analyzing a number of modifications of the tank, the publication came to the conclusion: reports of hopelessly outdated T-80 are greatly exaggerated.

Don't touch me
If you subscribe to the Russian-language version of the Chinese newspaper Zhenmin Ribao, you can catch propaganda in the style of "do not touch me." Messages about launching / commissioning new ships of large classes are constantly flashing there.
The composition of the submarine fleets of the United States, Russia, China and the EU in graphs
Of course, underestimating a potential adversary is deadly, overestimating it is economically unprofitable. Yet relate to the power of the Chinese fleet need with healthy skepticism. The amount of tonnage with which the PLA fleet is growing is impressive. However, the quality is poor.
In order for the Chinese Navy to really stand on the same level with the fleets of the leading world powers, Beijing should reconsider its policy in terms of scientific and technical activities.

Repair is not under warranty
DDG-1001 “Michael Monsour” uses Rolls-Royce Marine Trent-30 gas turbines. British turbines were considered to be one of the most powerful in their class, but nobody said anything about reliability. However, for the Zamvolt class destroyers, such a technical malfunction is far from the first. Experts using a borescope found damage to the blades of the turbine and generally sentenced her to replace. The US military decided to change the turbine completely. But the replacement of half of the propulsion system - not a quick and expensive. And "just something" 20 million dollars. That is the cost of the work of engineers at General Dynamics Bath Iron Works, responsible for building the ship, and specialists at Rolls-Royce.
20 million dollars is not just an amount. Its requirement indicates that the replacement of the turbine is not like a non-warranty repair. It is possible that the crew put their hands on the decommissioning of the turbine.
For "Zamvoltov" in general and for "Michael Monsur" in particular, breakdowns are not uncommon. For example, in December last year, Monsur had to interrupt the tests and return to the port just a day after departure. The filter system protecting the ship’s electrical equipment has failed. As a result, the destroyer lost the ability to use the electrical network at high loads.

No money left? There is money!
No money left? It is looking at that! For example, when the authorities decided to make Russians happy with the Yeltsin center number two, the money was there.
In the depths of the Kremlin offices, a decision was made that would cost the Russians 1,33 billion rubles. Compared with the first Yeltsin-center - utter nonsense!
Recall 13 May 2008 President D. Medvedev signed federal law No. 68-FZ "On the centers of the historical heritage of the presidents of the Russian Federation, ceased to exercise their powers."
2. This Federal Law applies to centers of the historical heritage of the presidents of the Russian Federation, established in the manner established by it, which have ceased to exercise their powers.
If we live (without pensions or with pensions) before the termination of Putin’s powers, then in St. Petersburg and Moscow, we will probably see Putin-centers. It is possible that under the auspices of "Gazprom" Putin-center was erected in Germany. Well, there will be a turn of Medvedev-centers ... Only first, the Russians must choose Medvedev as president in the 2024 year, and then wait for him to grow old and stop "exercising his authority." Who else to choose the leaders of the state? The team is irreplaceable, lack of personnel in the country!

Sure, the opening of the eyes will not happen this time. For the belief in the people is strong that Putin is not a liberal, and he alone is the only one as a guide who will take care of the people best of all.

As an exception
According to the regulations, the title of Honored Master of Sports is awarded to: champions and prize-winners of the Olympic, Paralympic and Deaflympic Games; world champions in the disciplines included in the program of the Olympic, Paralympic and Deaflympic Games - in individual competitions, including relays, groups, couples, etc., competitions in team games; world and European champions, winners of the World and European Cups, who also collected the necessary number of points in accordance with a special table; as an exception, for outstanding contribution to enhancing the authority of the Russian Federation and Russian sports at the international level, while showing exceptional courage and skill.
But there is the Russian national football team ... And in its regard, columnist R. Skomorokhov "fully agrees with Catherine the" Great "Gamova" and believes that "the past action in the Kremlin is zrada." Golden rain poured down! "As an exception." And for what? For the lost match and 8-e final place!
In the previous episode of "The Results of the Week," it was told about plans to create another Yeltsin center. In essence, the titles and awards to the losers and the glorification of the former Russian president are links in one chain. Under Yeltsin, Russia did nothing but lose. In all. In foreign policy and in domestic. In the standard of living of the people (rapidly dying out) and in respecting abroad (openly celebrating the victory in the Cold War and mockingly calling Russia a “partner”). However, at the suggestion of the authorities, B. Yeltsin turned into an almost saint. And now we carry on our hands and fill up with “exceptional” titles and money (there are no) football players. It would be better for the Kremlin to value scientists so much, those who are moving science. However, sorry ... the Kremlin cherishes them. Very much appreciated. We have Skolkovo, and we have Chubais.

The guarantor of the constitution, it seems, was tired, I would not like a repetition of Leonid Ilyich ...
To add to the rich, to take from the poor!
28 July in the center of the Russian capital was the most popular rally recently against the government’s proposed pension reform. On the eve, the head of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Gennady Zyuganov spoke about the emerging conflict situation in society:
From the left to the anarchists: rallies against pension reform were held in St. Petersburg and Moscow
Working up to ninety is great and easy!
We have nothing for the people. Neither authorities, nor deputies, nor opposition
This schism, Gennady Andreevich, does not exactly describe a “contradiction”, but an old adage: add any power to the rich, to deprive the poor.
Several years ago, the Russian press laughed a lot at B. Obama: they say, not the president, but the lame duck. "Lame ducks" in the United States called presidents who went for a second term. On the second and last.
In 2018, Putin also went on his last date. (Some of his fans, however, think differently, even think of the royal throne for an irreplaceable president.) And since the last time in the Kremlin is last, popularity with the electorate is no longer required. And lining up in one row: the pension bill, the increase in VAT, the price of gasoline ...
Oh, of course, this is a joke! There is no row. All matches. There is not even “Putin’s hand” that foreigners often see. In dreams see.
Putin has nothing to do with it. The bad oligarchs, the liberal government, Medvedev, Navalny, Khodorkovsky, ukropropaganda, the State Department and the IMF are to blame for everything. These are all of them, and Putin alone is not able to fight off enemies. That is why he loses his rating, as a character of a computer game loses his “health”, on which various monsters press.
Comrades, let's rally around Putin! We provide him a rating in 86%! And even in 90! Working up to ninety is great and easy!
Or are we all agents of the State Department and all-propalschiki?

Ambush and death
According to Reuters, 30 July three journalists were killed around 21: 00 local time (23: 00 Moscow time) near the town of Sibut, located 200 km north-east of Bangui, the capital of the Central African Republic. According to the official statement of the mayor Henri Depele, three people with press cards of the Russian media were killed in an ambush set by unknown persons. The official representative of the President of the Central African Republic, Albert Yaloke Mokele, stated that the bodies of three persons of European appearance were found by an army patrol operating in the Sibut area and taken to the UN base in that area.
The death of journalists in the CAR: predictable provocation?
Savanna Murder: Lessons and Implications
Later, the names of those killed became known. These are three members of the film crew from Russia: Orhan Dzhemal, Kirill Radchenko, Alexander Rastorguev. Murder versions also appeared: from the gangster weaning of cash (and therefore an ambush) to the WPCs PMC and some threads that lead to gold "Putin's cooks".
From the facts it is known that: three days before his death, three journalists tried to penetrate the military base of Berengo, where, as it is supposed, Russian mercenaries are training the national army of the CAR. They were simply not allowed into the base without permission from the Ministry of Defense.
Another fact is also known: the driver, who transported journalists, managed to escape from people who had attacked from an ambush.
Chief Editor of the Investigation Management Center (SDC), Andrei Konyakhin, and his deputy, Anastasia Gorshkova, reported RBCThe reporters had two cameras, cameras, hard drives, a laptop, microphones, voice recorders, and about 8,5 thousand dollars in cash.
And with this good, they traveled through the territories teeming with bandits and insurgents. In the evening. Warned about the great danger of the night trip. Apparently, it was very necessary to go ...
