During a recent campaign event named “Everything for victory!”, Putin said “success is achieved by the side that can react quickly... the side that does it quicker wins the battle”. It took place in the military-industrial city of Tula, arguably the center of Russian arms manufacturing, with more than 10 companies producing weapons non-stop. This includes NPO Splav, the only manufacturer of multiple rocket launcher systems in Russia. Tula is the perfect example of how, at the heart of Russia's military production capability are its state-owned manufacturing facilities. 6 large plants encompass a wide range of capabilities, from the production of traditional artillery shells to the assembly of advanced munitions systems. These facilities are strategically dispersed across the country, and most of them were inherited relics from the Soviet Union. Today they account for 70% of all Russia’s arms production.

During the Cold War era, the Soviet Union established a robust industrial infrastructure to support its military ambitions. Factories churned out vast quantities of munitions, positioning the Soviet military as the formidable force. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia faced economic turmoil and a decline in military spending. In 1995, just 4 years after Russia’s first democratic presidential election, Russia’s arms manufacturers produced barely one-ninth the military output they had in 1990, and by the spring of 1995, Russian authorities had declared more than 200 defense enterprises or institutes financially insolvent, and many more were on the verge of bankruptcy. Weapons were already Russia’s largest manufactured export, and their efforts to switch companies from producing military goods to creating civilian goods had largely been unsuccessful.

We have video of its APS intercepting what appears to be an RPG rocket so it does "work" but for all we know it could be based on old tech like drozd and be basically useless against most modern threats. Plus the charges are placed INSIDE the turret composites, like wtf were they thinking? Compromise physical armor that NK can at least produce a decent version of for what is probably at best 1980s level APS technology? It definitely has promise and is likely better performing than their previous best tank, the pokpung ho, but that's a _really_ low bar to reach as it is since that tank is basically a slightly better T-62M. The only somewhat decent thing about M2020 is the high likelihood of it having thermals though even these are probably gen1 imagers secretly imported from china for cost cutting measures. All the images are hard to look at in detail, but based on the weld locations, the composites appear to be quite thin as well, even on the turret. The bolted on ERA panels that weren't seen on the original version from the 2020 parade may help, but these could be anything from old kontakt-1 based designs seen on their older tanks to possibly FY-4/kontakt-5 based designs from russia/china.
Great video. Makes me wish I'd become a (Western) defence analyst. I bet those guys are too excited to sleep on the nights before the big socialist paradise military parades.
Ghost recon advance warfighter vibes.
In your terms, you left out 'invader.' That is someone who was dumped from a prison into our country or an unequipped soldier.
ANY ONE CITING SOVIET PROPAGANDA NEWS PAPER 'PRAVDA' (THE TRUTH) has zero credibility as a source of information. this is the third incidence of b.s. in just this video alone, and this guy often gets seriously bad straight up 100% propaganda information on numerous videos, i'm not even going to finish. it's bad enough he's sourcing ukrainian propaganda for 100 days worth of artillery when if you watch ukrainian tv news on the front lines you can see they are down to handfuls of munitions and the corrosion is evidenced on many machines if they had just fired alot. to which there is none.
Wow, this was very well done! Comprehensive, information dense, and yet approachable. Thank you for the hard work!
Artillery and advanced air defense systems. They're very capable. We keep underestimating them.
I submit this before watchin the vid, which I am sure is good. IF your fire control sucks compared to your opponents, THEN you have to shoot and produce a lot more rounds. One guided Excalibur round can replace several unguided rounds, and that helps s sh*tload with the logistics as well. Transporting 90 pound rounds ain't cheap.

US Army is not buying the AbramX
They aren't "choosing sides" lol, you aren't the main character here.
Can anyone tell me the justification for the US to build the B-21 Raider. This situation looks a lot like the one between the SU-37, which was built and demonstrated super maneuverability capabilities before the first F/A -22 was ever built. What I'm trying to say is that it appears the US is trying to play catch up to China, as what appeared to happen between the US and Russia with the F-22 and the SU-37.
So glad Turkiye bought the license for the K9 and adopted the system(T-155 Firtina) at the time. We are now in the process of upgrading it to "Firtina II" with some improvements (like remote MG Turret, and Enhanced fire control system) and nearly complete localization of components.
Espionage or not through the internet, Bosnian dictator gave China the F-117 Nighthawk that was shot down over their territory.
Update
As a Russian, I can say with confidence that when a Russian official opens his mouth, he is lying. Anything else is impossible. I think the Z-Army can expect on half the stated number of shells at best. And only because of the support of allied and neutral countries in exchange for strategic technologies. The proof is that even with a total shortage of ammunition among Ukrainians, Putin’s army captures only small villages at the cost of months of effort and huge losses. I don't understand Americans a bit. Our country literally calls you enemies. This is not the first year the country has been doing this, but from the very beginning of the reign of the current dictator. Because of propaganda, half of Russians want to destroy you. Putin demonstrates virtual tests of new weapons on a map of America. Everyone knows the plans of the Russian special services for the collapse of your country (unrealistic, but still), and also attempts to interfere in the elections. Comedians have been political for msny years and often make fun of you and mock you, laughing at your every tragedy. Political repression and murder of journalists, human rights activists and oppositionists have been going on for twenty years. If you look at how many sites we have blocked, you will be shocked. Even before the war, Google reported that Russia was demanding it remove more content than all other countries combined. There is literally a fascist dictatorship in the country. Senators shout adapted Nazi Germany slogans. Propagandists are vying about which country to attack next. One of the senators (who openly proposed killing 20% of Russians who disagree with the government) says that the next target will be Kazakhstan. Others want to see Poland and the Baltic states on fire. The dictator literally justifies and expresses sympathy for Hitler in an interview with Tucker. There is not a single independent journalist left in the country who is not in prison. Torture in prisons has become commonplace. The opposition and gays are equated to ISIS terrorists. It reaches the point of being grotesque. Girls with rainbow earrings are captured by the police, rainbows are turned gray in music videos, and rainbows are cut out of cosmetics labels. A few days ago another barrage of censorship began. Censors have taken to printed books, all of which contain narratives that contradict propaganda or mention gay people. Hundreds are already banned. New censorship arorganizations are emerging. There is an active fight against VPN. Any public display of disloyalty can land you in jail. Revanchism and resentment are flourishing in the country. And all of you... you just don't do anything about it! You did nothing for twenty years while the dictatorship was being built and freedom was being destroyed. And even now you hesitate. A bloodthirsty maniac from another street has been promising to kill you for a long time, and now he has attacked his neighbor, who is asking for help, and you cannot decide whether to send him one pack of bullets or two. Are you insane? Do something already, please! I want to live in a free country. Which values its residents. Where you won't be killed or imprisoned for disagreeing with the party line. But I don't have money to move to another country :( Sorry for my English, I used Google Translate. Our English is taught very poorly. Just so you know, I passed English at school and at the university for the bachelor's and master's degrees with the high score without even knowing what articles are, not knowing the names of half the days of the week and confusing prepositions and past simple with present simple, lol.
Russia is still fighting WWII we go for command and control .Then control the Air Russia is having trouble with Ukraine Just think what would happen against superior tech.
Its obvious this promo/sponsorship is all about buying goodwill fr Americans (obviously its not a commercial) so it mus be directed at ordinary Americans who often opposes 2 companies lik Raytheon selling weapons globally & mos times 2 even our enemies, making them a million times worse than any illegal arms dealer who typically get the blame 4 arming the mos evil ppl on earth & these local US weapons manufacturers alongside our mos corrupt politicians (I'll bet at LEAST 90% of them are) slide.
It isn't? It's not even producing ONE million a year, hence the reliance on Iran and North Korea. What is this nonsense lmao
You lost me at military grade 😒
Also. Why don’t they give units with old tech these to try out. “Yea lets give all these high speed mofos the newest shit to try out” probably why they are so critical about everything. Spoiled. Give my old unit these and by golly they would be welcomed with open arms.
Incredible
There are shells left in Russia for a couple of days of the war.
One point when comparing it to thermals and NVGs is that sooooo many infantry units are behind on tech. My unit still have 75% of us wearing PVS-14s. No way could this new device be worse than those
Any of you little boys remember when Turkey was going to build the best medium Passenger jet a few years ago ?????? So many videos so much bragging nothing materialised this is exactly the same .... they never manage it with out European or American technology...
9 IDF vs 171 Hezbollah and some people believe this numbers IoI
80% of russian artillery shells don't hit anything of value in rural areas, precision is a better way to go, less shells needed to do serious damage. Biden & blinken overpromised and under delivered for Ukraine, they keep slow walking everything, neither side seems to have the advantage anymore. Cheap off the shelf drones are probably the wave of the future when it comes to dealing with large armored formations, convoys and troop concentrations, you don't need a A-10 to take out a T-90 tank when a $20 shaped charge dropped from a drone at night will do.
It's a real shame that politicians would instead use migrants and the border as political props instead of working for meaningful solutions. We need immigration reform and a plan to address the violence and instability that is causing the refugees to come here.
Since america/nato backup isroel and ukraine, America/nato become bad side .. and now Russian become hope/hero to other side world ..
Interesting
good up to date video. Thank you.
November cant get here fast enough. Biden cracked the door open and now the door has been kicked down. Too little too late is being done in his effort to stay in office. Its time to go…
US is not democratic country, its managed by deep state and CIA
why would not a neutral country trade?
The 1.2M number seam to rely on the nato number. There is a issue here. Norway and finland (and.. technically also denmark) work together to make artilery surply. But the final assebly is done in sweden and was hence nor tallied in the nato total. The the number is of by a bit.
strangely, there have been no sabotage operations to undermine this industrial production. seems like pretty vulnerable targets.
maybe russia regulates their capitalism better than you. so they dont get charged absurdly high prices for everything. i think that's a good thing. the word needs a stringer russia, china, brasil, india, south african and every other member of brics, current and future.
