The news is certainly good, but it seems to me that this should be constant. And in all districts.

[boos24]

Start with the right places themselves

[redmont]

I would gladly agree with you, but you know, everywhere we collapse and everywhere we need new cars, tanks, etc.

[boos24]

I agree that everywhere but it is necessary to start somewhere, do not send penguins to the Arctic first thing to drive

[Vadivak]

It's high time, otherwise the knight of the Order of the Legion of Honor Mishiko began to stir again, maybe he will diminish in haste,

[ZEBRASH]

Only the last paragraph pleases. And then if it really happens. The rest is just "PR", so to speak. We put a bit of equipment in one military district and trumpet the whole country that they are working

[oper66]

the armament of the sfd is a guarantee of the country's security, since we have the war of the last 20 years near us and we are participating in it, by order, who is at the place of residence

[ytqnhfk]

Everything is bad, everything is wrong but supplies are coming !! Moreover, boats and corvettes and frigates and tanks and other equipment! We are testing rockets (a blue mace liner)! Everything is somehow strange along the way and here in the information space there is a colossal war !!! Military exercises EVERY YEAR, and more than once, both on land and on water, well, everything is really bad !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[itr]

Why buy BMP-2? she’s out of date 20 years ago with a triple what?
Smacks of repair men!

[Rustam]

Smacks of repair men
______________
Naturally, there is no talk about any new BMP-2-Kurganmashzavod in poor condition
BMP-2s just go after a total overhaul from repair plants of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation

[svvaulsh]

Yesterday personally on the M4 highway in the Kropotkin area I overtook a column of ten brand new military "Kamaz" vehicles. Pleased with the replenishment. Although during my service, only the autobat of our unit received at least a dozen pieces of equipment annually

[Ivan Tarasov]

Yes, the Kamaz trucks are impressive.
But you should not rest on our laurels; we need a unified, armored, wheeled, transport platform.

[svvaulsh]

You are a skeptic! Okay! I'll tell you a secret and only for you! In fact, these were combat transformers disguised as Kamaz. Only!!! Chur, nobody!

[Ivan Tarasov]

OK!
Silent ...
Sssss!

[enikey]

we need tanks in the south and west directions

[erix-xnumx]

And in the east are not needed?

[Ivan Tarasov]

China is our allies.
There is little room for maneuver in the Kuril Islands.
Even if we lose them, it’s not tragic (then we press it back).
First, it is necessary to cover the future western and southern fronts.

[erix-xnumx]

As for the allies of the PRC, you said it very coolly! You will be their allies only until the moment when you are still able to give at least some sort of rebuff. And what about the room for maneuver - is there enough room for maneuver in Sakhalin? There used to be an army corps, then it was chopped down to a motorized rifle division. Now there is generally ONE motorized rifle brigade. To the whole island. The place for maneuver simply heaps!

[Ivan Tarasov]

You now need "Cornet-D", then new tanks.
First, reflect the impending blow ...
The tank fist must be held as an operational reserve.
Then, when the new equipment arrives in sufficient quantity, everyone should be re-equipped.

[_arbit]

and in the east we need people to ride all this :) and they all live in the west

[erix-xnumx]

You soon buried all the people in the east .... And there are still troops there.

[SIA]

Everyone needs tanks. But not enough for everyone.

[Aleksey42]

Such news can not but rejoice! Of course, you need everything at once and a lot. But we do not live in a fairy tale. Not so long ago they could not even dream about it. Of course, one must not forget about other types of troops. Particularly need to strain about communications, intelligence, UAVs. And do not forget about the life of soldiers.

[Cynic]

Hmm.
Good news, that's just

For their ability to overcome high obstacles, as if jumping over them, these combat vehicles are called "flying tanks".

An incorrect statement, the flying was, is and will be the T-80 and this characteristic was assigned to it not by home-grown experts in military equipment, but by military experts in Abu Dhabi.
PS If the T-90 is flying, then the T-72 is even more flying!

[Motherland]

At first I thought about the Ka-50 "black shark" it is called a flying tank

[datur]

yeah only low-low !!!!

[mega_jeka]

Then of course you are right. Why the hell was this tractor with a gun called flying. Shit, not a tank. the same T 72 with a new SLA and another dynamic protection. And all the arguments like the Indians liked him so much ... that means he's so good ... they just cause laughter. Found on whom equal. You’ll get horseradish in the cold -35, and the T-80 without problems. We do not seem to have India and there is no sand, but with frost, there are no problems so why the heck is such a tank for india? I myself live in Omsk, they did the T-80 with us until the plant was closed under the START agreement. No wonder Americans are so afraid of the T-80. And at all the VTTV exhibitions that take place in our city, I saw which tank was flying and which not ...

[Cynic]

Since the 50th, our Moscow Region has already figured out, they have clogged up for so many years (even the filmmakers managed to remove the film about it) and that’s it.
Well, one pilot cannot pilot and shoot !!!
The Ka-52 Alligator went to order and that’s okay.
PS As far as I know, the number of pilots is specified in the terms of reference for design, and not a gag of designers.
Sadly, it turns out then (I think it’s not necessary to say when) one pilot could fly and shoot, but now he doesn’t.

[Ivan Tarasov]

There is safety in numbers.
Try it on a flight simulator ...
In the crew of an attack helicopter, the operator is definitely needed.
Even if you have a UAV, then control, target detection and its suppression must be carried out by two operators.
Two people for both a helicopter and a tank.
One controls, the other detects and suppresses.
This is the highest skill, but it is necessary in modern warfare.

[Siberian]

If you translate all this into military accounting units, it turns out that the Southern Military District rearm:
- about 10 motorized rifle companies (about 3 battalions);
- ONE !!!!!!!! tank company;
- ONE !!!!!!! howitzer self-propelled artillery division.
Truly, "seven-league" steps ...

[Motherland]

The harsh truth of life is what else.

[APASUS]

Ours must not get rid of at the Olympics in Sochi! Therefore, equipment arrives in South-Eastern Military District. Although other districts need such equipment no less!

[nickname bj]

Are there no "flying submarines" in sight?

[Cynic]

[

A "flying submarine"

More precisely diving aircraft
These projects of the 80s, drove through.
Perestroika has come.

[bubla5]

In the Southern Federal District, and whether the new technology for the south will again be a strategic mistake, after all, the Dudaev was left a lot of good things, and in the center they remained AK

[Ivan Tarasov]

It would be better if ninety-fifths were brought to mind than to produce an anachronism.
In wartime, while there is an opportunity to rearm, you need to rearm, then (when hostilities begin) there will be no such opportunity!
We will fight on the modernized seventy-second (they are T-90).
Remember, the legendary thirty-four, if, to infinity, they upgraded BT, we would have gone far ...
T-95 is a network, thirty-four of the 21st century, T-90 is BT.
Rearm!
Unless, of course, our leadership plans resistance, but not surrender to NATO.

[does it]

this should not be trumpeted, it should be done silently, a large country and army should be respectively normal, in the sense of new armaments

Penguins drive the Arctic

IN THE ARCTIC THERE ARE NO PIGVINS, "there bears rub against the earth's axis"

[kesa1111]

It is more pleasant to read about what has already been done. Plans are closer to theory. 3 - 4 story mansions grow like mushrooms, from the train I see. It becomes clear why there is not enough for a new technique.

[enikey]

it is clear that it is necessary to arm all directions, but the south is more important at the moment, I think because of Georgia. then, respectively, the West, NATO continues to build up its military potential, but everything is still not clear with Ukraine.
