      Well, Erdogan is not a Euro-gay loser; the bloody clown won't be able to send him away so easily...

    There's one thing I don't understand: we probably already have a ton of "trophy" drones, both UAVs and unmanned aerial vehicles. What's easier than getting them operational and launching them against Romania and Turkey, against the vessels of "target" companies in the Black Sea and the Mediterranean? Any forensic analysis will show that they belong to Ukroreikh.
    They'll blame us anyway, but in fact there won't be anything to present, even if unofficially, they'll start putting pressure on the cocaine führer.
    There will be no reason for open war, but everyone will understand everything, and maybe then it will dawn on them that fighting with someone else's hands is possible in both directions.
    And it's high time to "accidentally" fly into the Baltics, we have the right to "miss" or "lose control", we make rockets out of irons and washing machines, what can you expect from us lol

    "In the area of ​​Vakfıkebir" is a disaster, but in Komsomolsk-on-Amur it's... USC has been working on the Project 22800 Shtorm small missile ship, and the Amur Shipyard has launched it. Maybe they'll complete the order by Navy Day in 2027 and it'll be ready for trials.

    No big deal, it's the joint "Bayraktar" that arrived under its own power for a firmware update. It's cooperation, after all.

    So that's where drones are launched from in Russia. As the crow flies, it's 300 km to Sochi. A little to the right, through Georgia, and not a single radar will pick it up. Fly across the vast expanses of Russia!!
