Another probaganda turd used as a cruise misile. Didnt fly too far.
This is another one of those made up feel good stories.
According to Dzokher Dudayev:-
"Remember my words: Russia will disappear when the Ukrainian sun rises" - Dzhokhar Dudayev.
And Kadyrov will need to take heed of that prophecy too.
Their monthly production of KH-101 seems to have increased.
From 2018 to 2022 it was 0.24 per day.
According to Ukraine the production rate was between 0.44 and 0.81 per day in 2022. A serial-number based estimation puts it at least 0.36 per day. That's a wide range of figures but all of them are higher than pre-war.
The article is 5 months old so things may have changed. They are believed to have stockpiled a lot of components so the effect of sanctions would not be immediately felt anyway. Perhaps 2023 or 2024 production rates will decline.
Looking at the photos of the missile nosecone,it was most likely a kinetic impact missile,like PAC 3 since pac2 using proximity fuse and explodes when near the target,and would have left alot more smaller fragments on the missile itself
!!!
How effective have his lads even been in all this? I don’t think he’s even managed to quell the Chechen insurgency he’s been responsible for containing all these years. At least the Wangers had some capable mercenaries in their ranks and the idea to throw convicts in the grinder to save their more able soldiers. Can Kadyrov do anything similar, or does he just like blagging on Tiktok?
So Ukraine get some payback for Mariupol
I am sure Azovs cant wait
He might need it if hes going to negotiate with Putin
Pretty much confirmed Wagner criminals to be replaced with Tiktokers this will end well!!!!
I haven't seen an updated list since the last mass missile attack. They use to also have a graphic showing how many missiles Russia was estimated to be producing per month.
But they started the war with:
Kalibr: 500
X101/Kh55: 444
Kinzhal: 43
I'd be curious to see if estimated monthly production is increasing or decreasing over time.
Budanov - “As of today, Russia has no military, economic or political potential to create another attempt for a serious offensive anywhere in Ukraine,” he said. “Besides that, it is completely capable of waging serious defensive operations, and this is the very problem we are about to face,” referring to Ukraine’s anticipated counteroffensive.
Budanov believes that Russia’s supply of missiles are running low, almost to the point of exhaustion. “They are trying to accumulate certain stocks and have them ready in order to try to disrupt our offensive, but the truth is that they have taken their stocks almost to zero.” 'We will keep killing Russians,' Ukraine’s military intelligence chief vows (yahoo.com)
Not unless it's set in the mid 1970's
I myself was amazed to hear that statistic, 1933 566,000 then 304,000 emigrated, total murdered German Jews approx 134,000/165,000 including those that emigrated to subsequently occupied countries, about 24%.
Timothy Snyders book Bloodlands made me aware of that and you can check it with the link below.

Better be an option in RDR3
Looking at the launcher's they only received pac 2 variants, in the standard quad tube launchers, where the pac 3 launchers comes in a 16 tube launcher 8+8 ,
I know German previously ordered pac 3 upgrades including the new luncher tubes .
I was talking about the kinzhals being an air launched ballistic missile vs an actual modern hypersonic missile, much to the annoyances of one or two others .
They may have used a PAC-3 missile which kills kinetically without a warhead (mostly, it has a small warhead).
Kinzhal is little more than an air-launched Iskander. It is not a true hypersonic missile because it cannot make sharp turns at hypersonic speed.
That does not mean it is easy to hit. The basic Iskander is already very difficult for Ukraine to intercept. It comes down to success rate - if you make 50 attempts and succeed once, that's very bad due to the cost (and limited supply) of intercept missiles. However a 1 in 50 means you will kill some; so of course you can pose these for photos and big yourself up if you are so inclined.
Russia have fired over 100 Kinzhals since March of last year. If Ukraine have now intercepted one that is nothing to celebrate, anyone doing so is ignorant of basic math. However if their success rate goes up - if the Patriots prove more effective than their previous systems - then this will be very significant. But it's something we won't know for some time, you need a bigger data set.
During Last weeks visit to Ukraine by Petr Pavel the president of the Czech republic presented Volodymyr Zelenskyy with a Gorgeous custom CZ 75 white lion pistol one of only 100 produced....
Journalist Maria Ponomarenko going to jail for 6 years for telling the truth
Putins worst nightmare
Probably if they'd had the chance, yes.
I'm not at all interested in making any excuses for Russia btw (there are none) so I think you misunderstand me
Still not sure it did happen,the photos of the missle supposedly recovered looked pretty much intact,
If a patriot was used to interpret it wouldn't have been intact nor would it have gone to the ground at a clean angle ,they pretty much denied it , several ministries denied it happened,then suddenly it happened ,
There was speculation re hypersonic missile - confirmed intercepted by Patriot
Moreso the enemy of my enemy rather than an admiration of Adolf and his goons.
The Nazis didn't start committing atrocities in 1939. Their treatment of Jews and other enemies was a disgrace from the beginning and well publicised (albeit not to the full extent we now know), so Hitler licking republicans from the 1930s can't pretend they thought Uncle Adolf was just a nice guy willing to help the republican cause. They looked the other way in the name of ideology.
yeah, but nazis had some intelligence. These have none.
The IRA were not fascist and were avowed enemys of the fascist blueshirts.
The links with nazi germany were for political aims (a united Ireland) and not because of a shared fascist idiology.
People today know the crimes and horror perpatrated by the nazis, people in 1930's Ireland did not, since they hadn't yet happened.
People who support fascists today like Trump, Farage etc know the history of fascism so are many times worse than any IRA head in 1930's Ireland with links to the nazis.
Yes they did rape ( Maria Cahill) child abuse, shoot people who were prisoners in the head ( the disappeared) as well as two British army NCO's captured at a funeral.
They bombed the sh!t out of Belfast in particular but other areas of NI as well in the seventies and eighties.
As the Russians are in a different league similar the Nazis but the IRA were no saints either. They just operated on a smaller scale
precisely

Supporting Irish republicanism doesn't have the same allure when you say it was almost Irish Nazi-ism at one point in history.
But like everything, it's never as black and white.
This is how Russians die in Bakhmut
As an idiot I find this very offensive.
