🇷🇺United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) has delivered a batch of Su-35S fighter jets to the Russian Aerospace Forces.
The 4++ generation aircraft have completed the entire cycle of factory tests. During testing, pilots from the Russian Ministry of Defence tested the aircraft in various modes.
After completing the tests, the aircraft flew from the factory in Komsomolsk-on-Amur to its home base airfield.

The interesting part of the Il-76MD-90A story is that it was not simply a transfer of the Tashkent production line to Ulyanovsk. Russian engineers digitally replicated the Soviet-designed Il-76, then significantly modernized and redesigned it.

🇷🇺⚡Launch of a Soyuz-2.1b by the Russian MoD from the Plesetsk cosmodrome. The rocket successfully deployed a military payload into orbit.
Days leading up to launch, the Ukrainians relentlessly launched drone attacks at the facility but as always miserably failed.
Johnson: The intensity of Russian attacks on Ukraine is now comparable to a nuclear explosion.
He is convinced that Zelensky will be forced to flee Kyiv and declare Lviv as the capital.
Former CIA analyst Larry JOHNSON: Russia has intensified the blockade of Odesa and Mykolaiv – two critical ports on the Black Sea. In essence, it has cut off Ukraine from the Black Sea and the import of foreign weapons, as well as other vital goods for its industry. Overall, Russia is not only increasing the economic pressure on Ukraine. This is no longer a small fire, but a nuclear explosion.
American military expert Daniel DAVIS: Russia can destroy anything it deems necessary in Ukraine. More than half of the storage space in Kyiv has already been destroyed.
Russia constructed one of the largest microscopes in the world.
Electrons are accelerated to 3 GeV (nearly the speed of light) and stored in a 476-metre circumference ring. As magnets bend their path they emit hard X-rays.
Scientists focus it onto a sample, revealing atomic and molecular structure with sub-nanometre resolution.
A tighter beam allows better focusing. The smaller the emittance (measured in pm·rad) the better the microscope.
The Russian device is the world’s best in the 3 GeV range and second only to the US 6 GeV microscope (at 43 pm)
The megascience device was delayed from 2024 when Western suppliers refused to deliver. Russia spent 2 years and, in the meantime, they can do it themselves.
