  1. It is necessary to look among the former generals whom Putin dismissed from the army and appointed governors. At a fairly young age, they were once close to Putin. I'm betting on Alexey Dyumin, and I think Putin will leave 1-2 years ahead of schedule, leaving his successor.

    For such a short period of time it is impossible to create a tank, T-54 in the series went after 5 years, T-64 in 15 years. At the same time first tank was created in the years of WWII and after the war time, and the second tank during the Cold War, which could grow at any time during the hot phase. I can conclude that nowadays it takes more time for the future serial tank. And secondly, as it was already said, modernization better justifies the combined environment, while the modernization potential will not be exhausted.

    I myself spent a great time on BMP-2 as a gunner, and then platoon and company commander. The combat vehicle needs to replace ammunition and sights that meet modern requirements and it will get a second wind. Battle module "Berezhok" as an example of possible modernization.

    No, this is not a permanent practice, sometimes such a method of landing is practiced. This method was created for wartime during the Cold War.

    Honestly, mass airborne assaults are parachute out of date. The last more or less successful parachute landing was in Iraq in 1991. But in the airborne troops in different countries this is preserved as a tribute to traditions. In Russia, the airborne troops are the role of rapid reaction troops, as in other countries.The airborne force in fact became just an light infantry. Several years ago, even in motorized rifle troops began to practice tactical assaults on helicopters, company-battalion.

    What is curious is why the Russian navy would go to the trouble of recovering WW2 tanks from the bottom of the Barents Sea.  What else did the ship carry??

    The official message from the Ministry of Defense of Russian Federation, it is necessary to search for a waybill in archives.

    The operation involved a diving boat "Ivan Shvets" and a new multifunctional logistic support ship "Elbrus". It is planned that in the near future the specialists of the Northern Fleet will begin restoration of one more unique armored car, and rescuers will continue their work on the "Ballot" transport, assessing the possibility of lifting other historical exhibits.

    The Russian video says that the tanks went down in the Donaldson, so I guess that's it.  Hard to believe that the Russians shipped these tanks more than 10,000 kilometers!

    This is also an interesting question, what the hell to send across the country. Perhaps because in Eastern Military District there are no shermans for parades. And there they immediately decided to restore them.

    Here are Steve's recent comments on CM:A ------->

    As I was answered in russian-speaking forum when I got acquainted with the Combat Mission series, when the game was being developed, the BFs themselves hurried the developers of CMA. Since they were late and they seemed to be forced to release the game in the form in which it is. But I repeat it so answered when I asked questions about the CMA.

    It's video surveillance itself to prevent any attacks from outside. In fact, over the past 10 years, especially the last five years, the RF army has radically changed.

    I paint the model roughly, with a brush. Friends say to buy a painting machine, but my hands do not reach it. I know that it will be more beautiful.

    Tank from Deagostini, collected 14 months. Housing metal + plastic, metal tracks, inherent sound engine immitations, turret revolutions and shots. The control is available on the radio channel and wifi, the video channel is available via wifi. Turn the tower only 270 °, vertical guidance 5 °. Caterpillars lack grip on the snow, in the summer on the ground the tank behaves better. I'm already thinking how it is possible to modernize caterpillars.
     

     

     


     

     

  8. John Kettler,

    I told you about my military service 4-5 years ago when I was describing the TOE of a motorized rifle company. At moment, I military service in motorized rifle troops as the commander on motorized rifle company on IFV. Video surveillance is such a good addition to ensuring the protection of the military unit itself, in addition to personnel who carry guard duty. Video surveillance is such a good addition to ensuring the protection of the military unit itself, in addition to personnel who carry guard duty. Dead zones of video cameras also can not be avoided, because the personnel are checked every morning for bruises, etc. At the same time, if a doctor finds a mutilation from a soldier, he will be rewarded with a bonus, and the commander will be deprived of it and even reprimanded in a personal file. This creates a situation in which the commanders, closely monitor the discipline of soldiers. Yes, John Kettler, you are right, I meant that the crews of cars are constantly in different fuels and lubricants and etc.

    What about nutrition I'll tell in brief, the soldiers and officers it is the same. In the morning it is mostly porridges with meat products, boiled eggs, amlets, buns, butter and coffee or strong tea with milk. For lunch, two dishes always, different soups, and the second is a boiled or fried meat product with a garnish. Plus salads and compote or juice. For dinner, there is also a fried or boiled meat product with garnish, bun, butter and tea. The menu changes constantly every week.
    P.S. On Thursdays in the army this is a fish day, this means that one of the dishes for dinner will be fishy and dinner is the same.


    You too are fond of modeling, I indulge in it the same way. But never engaged in soldiers, mostly only armored vehicles. Slowly I do this after the service. I gave many models to my fellow workers' children and some models I kept for myself. There is also a radio-controlled T-72 in scale 1/16, cars M20 "POBEDA" and ZIS-110 in scale 1/8, ZIS-110 in the assembly stage. I really want to collect a Star Destroyer "Venator" sometime.
