the mehron mobile defense system was on display. it is capable of engaging a variety of aerial targets a range of 300. it is teller system and its radar, missile and command posts are mounted on an auto vehicle, each system is equipped with four mehron-one missiles. we asked mr. shaltuki about the distinguishing features of meran mobile defense system. در حوزه پدافوندی هم ما شاهد رونمایی we witness the unviling of new ad defense system named mehran. mehran is a long range at. defense system with key feature of mobility: the enemy can never target this system because once it fires it swiftly changes positions. this capability of maneuverability and mobility is the primary feature of the mehron system with range of 320 km. it can target enemy aircraft like irix, fuel carrying, aircraft and strategic bombers like the american b1 and b2 bombers. the show head 147 drone or uav, that is unmanned aerial vehicle, was another highlight of the day. it is a wide-body plane with a wing length of 26 meters and can fly at 60,000 feet and detect o

and so defense capability and more. more specifically, the turren defense capability is matter of basic survival to iran. this is dr. he is a graduate of international relations from tehran university. we asked him about the significance of the faire. why is it important? none of the military power equipment to our country, especially in region, the tumultuous region known to the western world as the middle east where our neighbors include turkey. native member and saudi arabia, the world's largest arms importer and buyer. we exist in a region where both our western and eastern sides are constant term and terrorism group. we have the presence of isis and ala, we have had numerous wars in origin, direct presence and military campaigns by the united states in the past 20 years and our borders in afghanistan, iraq and the persian gulf. us aircraft carriers, b-52s and nuclear submarines are present in our region. when weapons aren't sold to you, like uae, saudi arabia or turkey where you can't buy e 35 f32 or russian s400 systems or various armaments that neighboring countries are constantl

ukraine would like to receive thaad anti-missile defense systems and ballistic defense systems, new aircraftf the f-18 type, apaches, military transport aircraft, what does this mean, can we say that these wishes from the ukrainian side will be satisfied, and what stage, well, changes in the quality of the ukrainian army can we talk about, if these delivery will be after a certain period of time? and here the situation is, of course, complicated with practice and with the transfer to the practical plane, but the move made in my opinion is absolutely correct and correct, which is about what by the way defensek. already wrote today that we need to order more, then we will get at least something, yes, that is, this is a normal, normal theory, because, but i do not really agree with the determined cost, yes , which was provided, provided by defense express, why, because it is primarily political project, and when we say, for example, about f-18 aircraft, there is a way already receiving australian aircraft, for example, which australia no longer needs will withdraw. actually from the combat stoc

در حوزه پدافندی هم ما شاهد رونمایی defense we witnessed unveiling of new defense system named mehron.defense system with key feature of mobility. the enemy can never target the system because once it fires it siffly changes. it can target enemy aircraft like irix, fuel carrying aircraft and strategic bombers like the american b1 and b2 bombers. the shahe 147 drone or uv, that is unmanned aerial vehicle was another highlight of the day. it is a wide body plane with a wing length of 26 meters and can fly at 60,000 feet and detect objects and entities a distance of a thous kilometers. it is the latest uv achievement of the irgc aerospace force. another drone on display was the shahed 139. in the domain of drones, we witnessed introduction of two new models from the drone family shod in these exhibition. shahead 139 and shahead 147 was shorcased with shahead 1 47 being a considerably large and extraordinary drone presented. this aircraft can fly up to an altitude of 6000 feet can ass to an altitude of 30 km. additionally, it possesses a significantly high endurance for continuous flight r

it depends on what you fear more, air defenses or enemy aircraft?ow the picture looks as follows: for objective reasons, we have not seen air battles between planes for a year and a half, because both sides. war, do not risk flying deep into the enemy's territory and try to operate from beyond the reach of each other's anti-aircraft weapons. from the sides, the second moment, the enemy lost a huge number of highly qualified pilots who started the war, 324 aircraft lost, this is about 350-400 pilots who died, will no longer return to flying work, or are in our captivity, eh, accordingly, this factor has an equally serious effect, because the qualifications... on the other hand , people who pilot various types planes, well, definitely fell. the next moment, we do not see the use of aviation on a massive scale, all that the enemy now has can create an advantage over the battlefield, where the operation is carried out by a force the size of a reinforced battalion, a battalion-tactical group. we do not see squadrons being used, much less regiments or avi

so globally, ukrainian defense forces are forced to switch to defense in all directions.the enemy, well, i won’t say that he stopped us, stopped us, but in some areas of the front we went on the defensive, went on the defensive, to the opposition, because you know, we cannot be strong in all areas of the front, we are not adventurers , so somewhere we... go out, and somewhere we pass, continue our respective offensive actions by maneuvering, by firing, by moving forward, but we do not leave the intention of it, and we are once again preparing our reserves for our further large-scale actions. the national guard received 27 armored vehicles, they will provide fire support for units in battle, deliver troops and ammunition to positions, and evacuate the wounded. battlefield this was announced by the minister of digital transformation mykhailo fedorov on his page in the social network. each of the cars can accommodate up to 13 people, the equipment was purchased with the funds of the united 24 global initiative. and the deputy secretary of state of the united states of americ

for example, the aarrow missile defense project. the third version there , the united states spent more than 50% of all appropriations for this project, it is very important , and during the war it worked very well, because the united states and israel have these weapons, and when the time begins or, so to speak, yes, that is, combat operations, israel made a request and almost immediately received all the necessary high-tech things, combat. primarily for these anti-missile systems, so this is a very important point, regarding guarantees in general, of course, and this was heard during the summit in july, and it was recorded in the protocol of the g7, that ukraine should not only receive resources and receive weapons from the west countries from, guarantor countries, but also receive technologies. which will allow the defense-industrial complex of ukraine to be integrated into the defense potential building system, and this again corresponds to this israeli model, because it gives us exactly such opportunities. the only thing i want

it's iran's defense exhibition on all things military and domestically made. it was held on 19th november and was followed by a military maneuver two days later in kermon. from drones to missiles, the country's defense capabilities were sampled for the... display, it was a show of independence and the ability to secure the country's safety and maintain balance regionally and internationally. hello and welcome to yet another episode of iran today. that's right, it's a long time, iran doesn't need to import the bulk of its needed military commodities, it is 90% independent. this is ali abdi, an iranian political analyst. الان ما در شرایطی, currently we find ourselves in a situation where we produce our armaments independently. surpassing mere discussions of overhaul or maintenance, presently the production lies within our capabilities, within the aerospace forces, especially the revolutionary guards, 100% of the productions are indigenous, and the ground forces, over 90% of the equipment is domestically manufactured in the naval forces, iran stands among the few

and there , representatives of ukraine discussed the situation on the battlefield and current defenseds. also it was about security guarantees for our country. and in washington at the same time , a large-scale conference of government officials and... gunsmiths from the usa and ukraine took place, in which about 350 representatives of defense companies from both countries took part. and the goal was to find ways to speed up the production of weapons. for the defense forces of ukraine with the help of the united states of america. according to the results , among other things, they signed a memorandum on joint production in the defense industry, and it was also announced that production facilities should be built in ukraine for provision of the armed forces of ukraine with the necessary weapons in the spheres of air defense of ukraine, production of critically needed ammunition, as well as repair and maintenance of samples. equipment that has already been transferred to the armed forces of ukraine. so, how will all this affect the defensive and offensive capabilities of ukraine, what

projects that are absolutely necessary for the armed forces, and how exactly does the ministry of defense respond to this need to expand the direction of rtr, reb, are they now so... such active players who really, well, respond to those new opportunities that can provide your company for the account of the increase in orders and so on, well it was announced last month at least, there was a good event jointly organized by the ministry of defense and the ministry of strategy and industry, at which the vector for capacity building was announced, just like that, and to be honest, is n't it... the first thing i see systemicity, a sequence that can weave into systemicity, i am very cautious with modest optimism in this case, but for now it looks like there is a certain systemic movement in the direction, and the ministry of defense is trying to build, let's say, mechanisms, how to implement capabilities of each company in order to close the glaring... needs of our armed forces within the production from within the country in the first place, that is, to support our economy, our manufacturers,

dmitry, that i believe that the question of defensive fortifications is a rhetorical question.specially after... february of last year, maybe we simply treated the war not as a defensive war, but as an offensive war? and only now is it becoming apparent that only the ratio and, i would say, the alternation of these two types of war can lead to any success? mr. vitaly , the tactics of the russians are that , demonstrating the nature of active defense, that is , the attack of the group behind the backs of the russians, at the moment of a possible advance deep into ukrainian territory, engineering units appear , which immediately create lines of defense, knowing full well that they can squeeze out the russians at any time from occupied positions. this tactic has been used by russian troops for two years years why? i understand that it is not worth taking an example from the occupiers, but it is less about what the armed forces of ukraine are demonstrating. er, let's say, the tactics of active defense and , accordingly, the counteroffensive only in the last six months, and since fe

in 2023 , the defense forces were constantly increasing their range.began to fly to moscow, and not only that, having delivered more than 20 strikes , the armed forces of ukraine probably damaged more russian planes at the airfields than in the air. in addition, ukraine won this round of the battle of the black sea, not only forcing the russian ships to retreat from sevastopol to novorossiysk, but also regaining control of the so-called boyka towers. this made it possible to control part of the water area to such an extent that gur carried out two raids on the western coast of crimea. missile strikes on the docks in sevastopol have just completed the destruction of the submarine and the repair docks in kirch. the defeat of the black sea fleet of the russian federation. the crimean bridge is waiting for its turn in 2024. my guest is viktor kyvylyuk, a military expert of the center for defense strategies, a colonel of the armed forces reserve, and we actually met with him at the end of the 22nd year, there were several interesting insights from him, now

, about the closest line of defense, this is the line of defense of our fighters, it... comes, goes where soldier is protected by a body armor, the quality and quantity of which depends, relatively speaking, on the life of our soldiers on the front line. let me remind you, in the 14th year there was a situation when we had one, one flak jacket for 100 soldiers, then we were looking for flak jackets all over the world, then the story of the 22nd year begins, and we again feel that because we have not enough, because the army has increased, there is a need for systematic protection, they were not there, and we also purchased, searched for these body armor all over the world, but in addition to the number, of course, quality is also needed, and therefore about the important aspects of this balancing between quantity and quality, we will talk with our guest, serhiy minyaluk joins us, he is the founder and head of the well-known company welmed, this is a khmelnytskyi... company, people who use bronzes from this company, are satisfied, because in extreme conditions this product really protects

it seems that the plan for the coming months for the defense forces of ukraine is to hold the defenseimum depletion of the enemy's resources where possible. in fact, this is what it all boils down to. thank you, it was viktor kyvylyuk, a military expert of the center for defense strategies, a reserve colonel of the armed forces of ukraine, who gave us a little, well, you know, insiders of what could happen in the 24th year on the field. we will see each other again, that's it. dear viewers, anayeva is with you melnyk and the novyn team are ready to sum up today's day. the prosecutor's office has started an investigation into the shooting of ukrainian prisoners of war near zaporizhzhia. according to the investigation, in december 2023, during a combat clash with ukrainian defense forces near the village of robotyne in the zaporizhzhia region, the russian military captured three ukrainian defenders. an hour later, in violation of the geneva convention, the occupiers shot them.

on offensives, on covering from the flanks in... even though they have the name of the ministry of defensein fact, this ministry is far from defense, it is a ministry that fulfills the orders of putin's aggressive policy and his rapprochement, so their, i repeat, their attempts to go on the counter-offensive are a reaction, here there is no need to exaggerate in fact their capabilities and their capabilities are so, so of course they have accumulated forces and means, but... what kind of military strategy is this, if you lose many times more than your opponent, what kind of military tactics is it, when, if according to plans or strategies, you allocate two - three days or a week to capture, already having a lot of conditional experience during a year and a half of war and again for two or three months you trample on one in each of the directions, because i will remind lemanokupinsky - this is a bakhmutyan attempt to intercept from the summer of the battle. since july , the listener has been listening for two months, and so again well, the uglydars have been trying since last year, even sin

well, active defense is when it is not just such a positional defense, when we only restrain the enemy and do not take any active actions in response, active defense is when we defend and at the same time take offensive actions, if we take the beginning of the summer, when we started to advance , both in the north and in the south, liberating klyshchyvka, andrivka, this was our active defense, i.e. we were in fact on the defensive, but at the same time we carried out counter-attacking offensives, i.e. we advanced and liberated our territory, this is active counter active defense, the enemy mainly hits on, and is trying to bombard and shell the line of contact and the settlements around it, does he also have the inspiration to strike further there for a long time and even further into the depth, no, he has the opportunity to shoot at our tactical , in the depth of the tactical defense, he really shoots in our peaceful cities, for a while it goes without saying, but he also shoots druzhkivka, konstantinivka, and slavyansk, and reaches kramatorsk, that is, he tries to sow such panic among

, line of defense, line of defense, line of defense on every street, our infantry penetrated, valiantng around, yes, they won’t find it here only during a cleanup, sappers haven’t worked here yet, cossacks, ukrainian equipment, famous cossack, well, as famous, i would not say that this is the top craftsmanship. our howitzers killed them. now this is not the marina direction, but the kurakhovsky direction. fighting began for the nearest settlements: georgievka and maksimilyanovka. and then comes the most important transport hub of the ukrainian armed forces, the city of kurakhovo. listen, this is not our ammunition, no, no, not ours, not ours, that’s why these ships are just lying there. our infantry marches forward across the fields, storming the forest belts behind the marinka. shells and copters are flying above us , the enemy has fled, now it will be calmer in donetsk, wow, there was a shot from the southern caspian, hit, no, hasn’t reached yet, 40 seconds, it’s so long, 4 km, shot, units howling here along with... there it is, the banner of victory, the banner of the 150th indrevs

air defense and the network of an air defense fabric do the work in an integrated way and i can tell you that it performs its mission completely safely in a safe space and away from your service, which broadcasts the waves in a completely isolated environment and performs its mission in an environment without broadcasting. well, join us , dear viewers, for a musical segment . let's see together the pure soil of the islamic republic of iran , the achievements that the children of iran have for the people of iran, the nation of iran. and god willing , we will come back with you by continuing the conversation with amir sartib yousefi. lush like a spring at the top like sarani mountain , shining like a flower of the sun, transparent like a spirit of rain , wherever you speak. your name is made of light , your name shines brighter than your father's smile. kinder than our mother herself, i kiss you and the sun blooms in my soul and in my soul, i love the soil of your envelope, the country of my hope , i kiss your soil, and the sun blooms in my soul and in my soul, i love the soil of your

it is not yet known what the exact reaction will be from these defense companies, because relatively speaking, the budget of these companies, honestly speaking, even larger than the budget of the whole of ukraine, and it is clear that such a vision of these monsters will be extremely important for the formation of such a real strategy of interaction with the ukrainian defense industry, although some companies, in particular as system, have already... talked about it , that they are ready to expand the production, in particular, of guns on the territory of ukraine, and there are other examples when this project to frankins with the creation of new samples of strengthening interaction with our companies and modernization of air defense systems, it is actually already working, and further on the background of the visit of the president of ukraine to the united states , a publication appeared in the new york times, in which it is said that ukraine and the united states should develop a new plan of action for the next year, but the development of such a new strategy of the ukrainian-russi

to the program veterans and family members of the fallen defense forces can apply.lication for financing is selected on a competitive basis. looking at the financial component , again, our profile structural divisions, these are financiers, these are lawyers, then there are public, various presentations before experts, public protection of this project, well, then there is the signing of the contract and the implementation of the project itself, and the project must also be reported. as part of the program, it costs more than 60 veterans received financial assistance. by the end of this year ukrainian the veterans fund plans to announce a new competition for businesses. kateryna oliynyk, oleg palyamar, espresso tv channel. the espresso tv channel, together with the public organization baza ua, is collecting funds for atvs to transport the wounded and other needs of the 93rd separate unit. of the organized brigade of the armed forces of ukraine kholodny yar. in extremely difficult conditions, the ukrainian military fights for victory every day, not leaving wounded co

and mobile defense, the armed forces... are not ready to conduct mobile defense on an operational scaleso this way can be, this way of conducting defense can be applied exclusively in certain tactical areas, and this is how tactical units and operational groups can act, unfortunately, they are not trained for this, they do not have such opportunities, so it is correct to talk about active positional defense, this is discussed in the interview bbc. everyone, for example, said general muzhenko, the former commander-in-chief of the armed forces, that is, in advance, it is necessary to start preparing defensive lines, at least in those directions where the enemy, through his kirmanych, recently announced as his the nearest operational task is the acquisition of the administrative borders of luhansk and donetsk. oblasts and the exit to the kharkiv region on the banks of the ostiv river. accordingly, we must prepare for the maintenance of these territories, and it should be done now. and when we talk about other steps related, if you mentioned mozhenko, to the reformation of the front line, t

this mobile air defense group, professional destroyers enemy shaheds. after a year and a half of the war , people had already gotten used to working for pashehids, more or less. the principle of operation is simple. the soldiers receive a message about the shaheds, load the car with ammunition and a machine gun, go to the firing position and within 15 minutes they are hitting the target, this is our machine gun that got tired of a russian friend, a bad one, a 12.7 kord machine gun, anti-aircraft, well, even armed with us dshk, an anti-aircraft installation, fighters are working in sumy oblast, the very border with the russian federation, the target is illuminated with powerful searchlights even on approach, enough for such a distance as the mine flies, as far as this machine gun can work. how many kilometers? not only the machine gun won trophies in practice wars, the fighters collect their drones from the downed shaheds. for more than a year, they have accumulated a lot of details. a little bit. we just took a little bit of spare parts , this is how we

many governors personally visited and coordinated the construction of defensive structures.ay this work is yielding results. in the conditions of modern combat operations , approaches to the use of troops have been clarified. serious technicians, workshops of enterprises producing and repairing military equipment. thousands of ukrainian militants were killed in rear training and reserve centers. nationalists foreign mercenaries. during the special operation, we significantly improved the quality and reliability.

defense control center of russia. the conduct of the military defense in the past year, especially emphasizing the courage , professionalism and high combat readiness of our troops. officers and commanders at all levels courageously and professionally solved problems during the special operation and ensured the country's sovereignty at the global level. special words of gratitude to everyone who fought and fought on advanced operations, protects the skies of russia, repels raids of enemy, air and sea drones, suppresses artillery shelling and attacks by sabotage groups in our western border regions, and of course, i will especially note the unprecedented support of our people, the support of defenders of the fatherland, the patriotic... system of the absolute majority of citizens country, this is a reliable, indestructible pillar of our army and navy, we will always be faithful to the cause for which our comrades in arms gave their lives, i ask you to honor their memory without silence, without a raid. vladimir putin n

defense does not hear this yet, but now against the background of changes in the ministry of defense,ps personnel changes are taking place there in the departments, in these bodies, which carry out the procurement and development of these individual means of protection, or there are some dynamics of positive changes, what is the opportunity for such dialogue in the right direction, well , look, there is a declaration of changes, yes, if indeed the pronouncement will correspond to what will happen, i think there will be changes, but there is one thing. question, the presence of specialists, well, that is, the presence of a person, conditionally, who can conduct an analysis of ballistic resistance, an analysis threats, analysis, first of all, of the wreckage that receives, well, all of this and reduce it to some kind of document that will really work, that will, well, make possible the situation that the military will receive exactly the protection that they need, i.e. i have doubts about this issue, because in the last years of my communication with certain structures, i see a critical

ukraine is already developing its air defense systems, the so-called hybrid air defense systems haveeady shown their results this winter. frankincense is a joint development with the american. partners, such an air defense system combines soviet launchers and western technologies, and it is already working at the front. this is our productive such cooperation with american partners, in which we took our soviet systems, integrated them together with our western partners, together with western missiles, together with western launchers and received at the finish line a new hybrid air defense system. there will be millions of kamikaze drones next year - kamyshchin noted, but the situation with medium- range and long-range uavs is not so optimistic: 10,000 medium- range uavs per year and 1,000 long-range uavs. over 200 enterprises are involved in the overproduction of drones. we have only one factory that produced 4,500, this is only one production, only one site. thirdly, we are constantly increasing capabilities when we talk about ... long-range drones are, unfortunately, a painful stor

specific projects that are absolutely necessary for the armed forces, but how the ministry itself defense is responding to this need to expand rtr direction, reb, are they currently such active players? which really react to the new opportunities that your company can provide due to the increase in orders and so on, well, it was at least stated. last month there was a good event jointly organized by the ministry of defense and the ministry of strategy and industry, at which a vector for capacity building was announced, just like that, and to be honest, this is not the first time i see systematicity, a sequence that can weave into systematicity, i am very careful with a modest optimism in this case, but for now it looks like there is a certain ... systemic movement in the direction, and the ministry of defense is trying to build, let's say, mechanisms, how to implement the capabilities of each company in order to cover the glaring needs of our armed forces internally, production from the inside country , first of all, i.e. to support our economy, our producers, to provide and use all the a

also among the priorities of the ministry of defense, which the deputy minister of defense talks aboutng of the anti-aircraft shield of ukraine. here, the main attention will be paid to the production of means of air defense from manpads to anti-aircraft defense systems at kshalt of the zerka korall complex. let me remind you that this complex was mentioned last time. year, when its developer, general director of the state security bureau luch, oleg petrovych korosel, in an interview with our publication for in an interview for our publication defenspress, said that all the necessary documentation was submitted for approval to the ministry of defense of ukraine in the 21st year, let's listen to the synchronized oleg koroselyov. now the directors are looking for this video, let me remind you that it is actually this complex koral has already worked out solutions, as the general designer said back in the 21st year for the launcher, for the command vehicle, for the target detection rls and for the homing heads for the missile, as well as the missile itself for the neptune complex, which w

defense industry. this is really a postwar kind of initiative because it is going to take two or three years to back reproduce these weapons. we are also sending the weapons out of existing inventory. people heard about the javelins for example. and the patriots. we can discuss some of those. and then there is a pot of money to replace those systems. the legislation that allows us to send equipment to ukraine does not actually require that it be replaced but because we are giving them so much and it is, you know, top-of-the-line equipment, congress provides money to replace it. and, finally, there is services -- what i call services. there is training for ukrainians on particular units, plus we provide a lot of intelligence to them. we buy equipment from various allies. particularly old soviet equipment because they are accustomed to using it. you have these three elements of military support then there is humanitarian and economic support. >> that the biden administration has recently adjusted its sal

this was stated by the minister of defense of this state.edom of navigation and pose a great danger to ships ' crews. led by the united states, the netherlands and many other like-minded countries are joining forces to ensure freedom and safety of navigation. this morning i spoke on the phone with my american colleague lloyd austin. i thanked him for the us leadership and confirmed that the netherlands would provide staff officers for operations guardian of prosperity. also, one of the italian modern frigates with drones on board may soon join the coalition ships. virgilio pheasant. the yemeni houthis say. meanwhile, the appearance of warships from the usa, france, britain, and italy will not stop them from attacking any ships associated with israel. our position on the palestinian issue will not change, regardless of whether a naval coalition is created or not, we will continue to support the oppressed palestinian people. well, besides the largest oil companies who are afraid to enter the red sea due to houthi attacks on tankers. in the gul

there is a very serious air defense, it must be overcome, overcome air defense with help. certain tactical techniques used by the air force are also possible thanks to good western weapons, we have already seen this more than once, well, the same cruiser moskva, we all remember it, the flagship of the fleet, it was not easy to sink it like that, a brilliant special operation was carried out, strikes were carried out, and actually outwitted the russians in that case and we continue to do it now, that is why western weapons plus... well-planned tactical techniques, operations lead to results. air force commander mr. olyschuk said and wrote in a telegram and thanked specifically the pilots and everyone involved, can you hint, if not say directly, but can i can say directly, by what means, by what missiles, this russian amphibious ship was targeted, of course, by winged ones. and answered and did not specify at the same time, so what is there to specify? we don't have many of these weapons at our disposal, which were given to us by our partners, it's just that journalists from these countries

ukrainian soldiers are holding the defense in the direction of avdiyiv.my amounted to 466 people, and 20 units of enemy equipment were also destroyed. the verkhovna rada of ukraine adopted a draft law on the location of the national military memorial cemetery, its construction will be brought from bokivna to gatny near kyiv. and today , the ministry of veterans affairs presented the project of this memorial on the site of the 260 gas-filled military cemetery, ceremonial square, funeral home, crematorium, museum and exhibition complex and other infrastructure. first of all , the sector of traditional burials will be built. columbarium, farewell area and other necessary facilities. tombstones will be in a uniform style, taking into account religious characteristics. buses will run constantly from the capital to the cemetery. tragedy in zhytomyr oblast, three children died in a fire in the village of varbivka, korostyna district. age from two to five years. when firefighters arrived at the scene, the smoke, the house was already engulfed in flames, extinguis

can state-owned enterprises in the field of defense be effective at all?aybe, maybe, there are efficient enterprises whose management is not looked into every day. the state as an effective owner, perhaps not in slovakia maybe we see, yes, in serbia maybe, even, well, not really, in slovakia, public enterprises work interspersed with private ones, and this is one of those public-private partnerships, such good, good examples of achieving results, we cooperate with him and there we know a little from the inside, how it works, it is... radically different from ukraine and in general the system is built in ukroboronprom, it is not efficient, but state-owned enterprises can certainly be efficient and effective, if it is done correctly approach the process. how much does one mine cost approximately? in different ways, uh, about 20 00 hryvnias. 2000 hryvnias well, it's just a particularly relevant question, ah, for the military, when you use ammunition, few people realize that it costs money, and a lot of money at that. but the flip side, the military doesn't ha

and anti-missile defense. new aircraft have also appeared on the wish lists of the ukrainian side, including the fa18 super hornet aircraft - these are such powerful aircraft, twin-engine engines, which are much stronger from the point of view of using the list of weapons than the f-16, and by the way, about these planes were said to be at one time, if i'm not mistaken. argen australia was ready to transfer about 40 such aircraft to us, so we see that this trend continues. it was also mentioned about ukraine's desire to get apache and black hawk helicopters, to get american military transports, such as c-17, globmaster and c-130, as well as a list of new unmanned systems. of course, this list, from the point of view of ukraine, looks quite logical, because it is directed. on strengthening anti-missile defenses, strengthening our offensive capabilities to strengthen control of the airspace, but for now the entire request from kyiv is perceived as desirable, and we do not know the reaction from the american side

and anti-missile defense.o, new aircraft appeared on the wish lists of the ukrainian side, these are fa-18 aircraft, superperornet, these are such... powerful aircraft, twin-engine engines, which are much stronger, from the point of view of using the list of weapons, than the f16s, and by the way, about these planes it was said that at one time, if i'm not mistaken, australia was ready to give us about 40 such planes, so we see that this continues, also mentioned about ukraine's desire to receive apache and blackhawk helicopters, to receive american military transports and globmaster ec-130, as well as a list of new unmanned systems. of course, this list, from the point of view of ukraine , looks quite logical, because it is aimed at strengthening anti-missile defense, strengthening our offensive capabilities to strengthen airspace control. however, for now , the entire application from the side of kyiv is perceived as desirable, and we do not know the reaction. from the american side, so we will wait for the

, minister of defense ustem rustem umyerov, and attributed to him what he did not actually say, whichn, is absolutely normal from the mouth of the minister of defense, also of crimean tatar origin, the statement that crimea and its... liberation is a strategic goal for us, and ukraine is moving towards it one way or another, for some reason was crowned with an absolutely specific date and period of 2024 . it was so scandalous that the spokesman of the ministry of defense, pavlyuk, had to deny the information that it was about any specific dates. in your opinion, mr. vitaly, why are they again trying, i don't know, consciously or unconsciously, to make us fit into some kind of situation. even if we ourselves already refuse to put them on ourselves. i have another question. for why give an interview to a tabloid? i am still a supporter of information hygiene. there are solid publications, ugh, who, of course, would very much like clickable headlines, but who are forced to stick to the content of what the interlocutor tells them, and there are tabloids, and everyone knows this very well

defense strategy requires a u.s.uclear force that is either larger in size, different in composition or both, and it says therefore decisions must be made now. the commission did not quite go so far to say we have to increase our forces, although all of the recommendations about having a plan larger b-21 force power more nuclear submarines or more large cruise missiles seem to point in that direction. can you explain that formulation to meet? is the commission really saying we need to add more forces or is it stopping just short of that? >> thanks very much. i will just quote directly from the report. one thing i would like to highlight is the strategy. for people who have not read the report, we do say that the united states needs a defense strategy that can deter and if necessary defeat russia and china simultaneously. second, we say america's traditional nuclear strategy, the fundamentals are sound. we do not need a fundamental rethink but we need to adjust our posture to deal with this new two-peer reality. what
