While many of the are very suspicious, there is actually quite a bit of truth to this.

Most tall buildings in the west (or modernised non-western countries) don't have fully openable windows do to modern safety standards, but in Russia most of their high rise blocks were built in the Soviet era or in modern times but to Soviet safety standards.

The fact they have an abnormally high number of deaths per head from falling out of Windows is actually to be expected when you combine a population of higher functioning alcoholics with window standards brought to you by the HSA that gave us "You don't need any reactor containment if you don't plan on having any nuclear accidents" :p

Seriously, you think all these high ranking and Russian critics are falling out of widows by accident, please....

I'm not sure why they want these, unless it's "comparable" to the aerosol MLRS systems the Russians are using.

Not ideal but there's nothing there the Iranian's and Russian's don't already know about especially the Stingers which have been around since the 80's. Even if they could reverse engineer the NLAW's and other newer equipment they would struggle to replicate due to restrictions of specialist parts and money would be better spent on producing more basic equipment that can be mass produced.

I'm surprised the Israelis' aren't bombing the research centers tbh, you would think they would want to keep the Iranian research as minimal as possible

In this case its actually scarier than that, they are MAGA morons, they report to Trump, Trump reports to Putin.

Lucky there is enough non MAGA Republicans to make the deals go through.

IIRC, Ukraine’s requested these because they want to dismantle the casings, and use the individual armour piercing submunitions as drone dropped ordinance to help better take out Russian armour.

Guess the author :

"We should be pushing for peace, not funding war.I filed amendments to the NDAA that strip out all funding for Ukraine and prohibit providing them with F-16 fighter jets and long-range missiles.The death and destruction must stop, so in order to achieve peace, I also filed an amendment to prohibit any and all funding to Ukraine until a diplomatic solution to the war is reached."

The likes of MTG and the MAGAs told the extreme left to hold their beer a while ago.

Unconfirmed reports say that the missile strike was targeted at an airfield in Berdiansk which has taken out a number of aircraft (5 x Ka-52, 9 x Mi-8/Mi-24, 13 x Ka-29)

Something it's taken me an extremely embarrassing long time to realise is that it's been a whole year now since we've seen any real mention of the Mi-28 "Havoc" (the Soviet equivalent to the Apache), I wonder if they've run out, or maybe had to withdraw them after finding out they were actually **** lol.
 
There's been 11 confirmed Mi-28's shot down out of about 80-ish delivered which is a hell of a hit to a small force like that so I wouldn't be surprised if they'd been withdraw, maybe (pure guess) so that they could start to be modded to the latest Mi-28NM version (only about 10 of these so far) which has far better countermeasure systems than the older MI-28N & Mi-28UB versions.

Its the T90M which also gets me , nearly 25% of all available and active are lost in Ukraine (including 1 which is now in the USA)
