two more missile divisions will re-equip with the Buk-M1-2 complexes

Some kind of nonsense. Buk-M1-2 is not a very fresh complex. Here BukM3 is another matter.

[Boris Chernikov]

it is unlikely that these are new Buki ... sooner one unit was rearmed with something new, and 1-2 were sent to re-equip the old Kopeyki ...

[Lipchanin]

And how long will it take?
It is advisable not to delay

[Nastia makarova]

[Eldorado]

That's right, we need to restrain the Japanese militarists !!!

[Uncle lee]

the situation on the eastbound remains tense

I live here and I really don't like it!

[tolmachiev51]

"Like it" when the Yankees fly in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk !?

[Uncle lee]

What are you talking about? I really do not like it when bomb carriers roam around our borders, and even more so in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk!

[Alexey-74]

It is definitely necessary to strengthen the air defense.

Yes, Russia was overlaid in all directions ..

[Dikson]

That's what life-giving B-1 flights do! It was worth circling the Laptevs over the sea and near Sakhalin ... how finally, instead of selling to all the Turks and the Chinese, they remembered their own air defense system ...

[Lord of the Sith]

Everything is done in parallel, besides, it is already in service with 30 S-400 regiments.

The S-500 is already on its way, this is the thing ...!

[Lord of the Sith]

Well, the S-500 solves a few other tasks - satellites flying in low orbit and ballistic targets.

[lvov_aleksey]

everything is correct, the west was provided, the Caucasus-Crimea-Caspian-South, the north by itself, and now try it in the east ...)))))))))))))))))))

[tolmachiev51]

It's high time, there is no more "hole" than the Far Eastern Federal District in Russia! -except Vladivostok and Vilyuchinsk. I think it is clear why! Already in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, the Yankees feel at home.

[Alvis07]

Yaneks will be smashed in the Far East!
