#Turkey #Russia #Ukraine #UAVs

Can Ukraine replicate the success of #Azerbaijan in the use of #drones?

In 2019 UKR started manufacturing #BayraktarTb2 drones?

As #Russia masses troops, armor & more at UKR border, @daxe looks...

Is Turkey planning to send mercenaries to Ukraine?

Has Ukraine asked for help?

Is this Greek disinformation or shape of things to come?

@MichaelKugelman So be it...

If #Russia imagines that #ChiPak are better 'partners' than #India, let us wish them well

If #Russia can choose #Pakistan and /or #China over India

Russia is anyway not worth having as an ally for #India

[Michael Kugelman @MichaelKugelman]

Russia-Pakistan relations have been increasing for several years-a new military cooperation commission was established 3 years ago. But increases in US-India & Russia-China ties, coupled with less momentum in India-Russia ties, are giving it more strategic space to grow further.

Though specifics may differ slightly

Incidents at #Zhenbao Island (1969) between #Russia & #China and #Galwan at #India border in Ladakh region are similar

Important lessons on #China's behaviour

Tsuki no ishi wa doko desu ka?" That’s a question I answered hundreds of times in 1970. I was one of 56 Japanese-speaking American guides who’d been hired to staff the U.S. Pavilion at Expo ’70 in Osaka. Everyone wanted to ask me: Where is the moon rock?

@anticorruption @Hilary_Hurd @MoreiraTricia #Corruption is so entrenched in the #ThirdWorld with venal politicians

Unlike in #DevelopedWorld with enlightened politicians & patriotic populations

So I wonder where do these corruption cases come from in #GreatBritain?

The bugs on the #F35 still numbers in hundreds
Cleaning up those bus will take the best part of the next 10-yr
But from other angles, the #F35 is beginning to look as a stable and effective platform.

Just like there are few details about #PAF #F16 crash, there's equally sparse data on JF17 crashes

Some JF17 crash data has come out on defense forums like QUWA. Based on that 'data', estimate is that 15 of 75 JF17s have been lost to accidents & crashes

Total 79 systems, many of which state of the art systems if not all, in juat over a billion dollar in R&D. Thats how frugal Indian Engineering is. And we still cannot invest few more pennies in it to fill some more critical gaps.

Typical (misplaced) triumphalism by #Pakistan (& it's client-#Taliban)...
#USA's eagerness for a deal in #Afghanistan stems from a desire to end a pointless war
Not coz #USA is in a weak position
Or that the #USA has been 'defeated'
https://t.co/1RIEF8iXYt

[FJ @Natsecjeff]

My sources tell me US has given away a little too much to the Taliban as part of the peace agreement while getting only assurances in return. We will know for sure when details of the agreement are officially made public. But we always knew US was negotiating from a weak position

[Sujan Dutta @reportersujan]

He is from east Himalayas. He commanded a Madras battalion comprising soldiers from Andhra, Telangana,Tamil Nadu,Kerala,Maharashtra.And he defied a Prime Minister who had given up soldiers for dead. He rescued one, brought the rest back. That is a Madrasi Gorkha.
