@ArisJust1297 @RALee85 I couldn’t care less about the helicopter but whether the pilot who died was Ukrainian or Russian doesn’t matter may they rest in peace

@cym27s Fucking drones and this is a Ka-52M

As usual Guy and Massimo shared some useful information to clear things up, good job

From left to right: R-74MK, R-77M, Kh-31PM, and R-77-1.

IIRC, this is the first time that the R-77M is shown on a wing station in a Russian MoD video. Previously, they were only shown carried under the inlets.

[Polar Bear @plrbear4]

A common point of confusion is that the designation L-265M10-02 Khibiny-M is based on Rosoboronexport’s imagery as the Russians, as is often the case are most likely using the L-265M10-01 pods as their local designation

Furthermore if we assume that the R-73M and R-74 never entered mass production, we can deduce that this is an R-74M.

And the Kh-31PD is quite amusing because once again this is a Rosoboronexport designation technically the Russians refer to the local version as the Kh-31PM.

Technically this is a Mi-8MTV-5-1, I think I got confused while writing and just wanted to correct it

When examining the tank unveiled at the ADEX-2024 military exhibition certain differences are noticeable such as the Kontakt-5 explosive reactive armour being fitted without gaps.

🇦🇿Another interesting product at the Azerbaijani victory parade was the T-72A/AV and T-72 Aslan tanks upgraded by Israeli Elbit Systems and local companies.

The Azerbaijanis call the tank the T-72M1.

#Ukraine

🇺🇦🇷🇺In the #Donetsk oblast, a 9A83M2 air defence launcher of the Russian S-300V4 complex and two 1L125 Niobium-SV radars were hit by Ukrainian drones.

The drones were operating with Starlink Terminals as before.

[Status-6 (War & Military News) @Archer83Able]

Russia started employing Shahed/Geran-type long-range UAVs equipped with air-to-air missiles for combating Ukrainian aviation assets, Ukrainian military radio technology expert Serhii Flash reports.

The remains of a Shahed/Geran-type drone with an R-60 short-range air-to-air missile attached to it have been found on the ground following its interception.

[Polar Bear @plrbear4]

@Archer83Able likely a R-60M

The use of the 72V6 and 72V6-E4 combat vehicles will help distinguish between early production and late production Pantsir-S1.

Rosoboronexport, you're giving us quite a hard time...

[Polar Bear @plrbear4]

Ah yes, Rostec is famous for its reliability and is always right.

I am not blaming people for this but Russian vehicles that have undergone any upgrades are not always designated with different versions.

[poe @poetaetrr]

@offmozart So Rostec is wrong?

#Iran

🇮🇷🇮🇱In June 2025, an Iranian Najm-804 radar near #Tabriz was destroyed by a Delilah missile launched from an Israeli F-16I fighter jet.

This is the third radar destroyed on Iranian territory and visually confirmed before the ceasefire.

[Polar Bear @plrbear4]

#Iran

🇮🇷🇮🇱An Iranian Khordad 15 air defense launcher and radar were destroyed by a Delilah cruise missile launched from an Israeli F-16I fighter jet.

Two Iranian air defense operators can be seen nearby before the missile hit the radar, both of whom were likely killed.

This video of the June clashes was just released by the Israeli Air Force.

This is the 12th air defense launcher and 2nd radar visually destroyed on Iranian territory.

The fighter carries on its wingtips the L-265M10R ve L-265M10P pods which are part of the L-175M10-35S“Khibiny-M” electronic countermeasure complex.

This is probably the first apparent visual showing an operational Russian fighter carrying the R-77M missile.
