            Are the Ukrainians, with their ritual tambourines, perceived?

              And the Ukrainians, with ritual tambourines, are perceived?

              These are more likely to resist something from the plane than to adapt, while also being able to blow up.

    HELINA? Actually, she should be ...When the missile is put into service with the Indian Air Force, it is reported that it will receive a special name - Dhruvastra. But for us ... let it be better HELINA! By the way, the Indians were developing a variant of an anti-tank missile with an active radar seeker ... But something did not "grow together"! And it's worth saying: what's so surprising. what was "adapted"? The Indians have had "Soviet" planes for a long time ... they should already "automatically" adjust their designs for them!

    Soon they will not be with us, but we will buy weapons from them. Which is understandable, because they are not under sanctions and have access to components that are not available to us.
    Vaughn and to Brahmos, they write, the GOS did better than ours. We can and to RVV too. I would not be surprised.
