sukhoi su 34 fighter jet
Russia also relies on fighter jets to carry out attacks on Ukrainian territory. Vladimir Putin's government is known to possess various types of Sukhoi (Su), including the Su-34.
The Air Force Technology page says the Su-34 is also known as the Su-27IB. The Su-34 has been in service since 2014 and is a derivative of the Su-27 Flanker. The aircraft design retains the basic layout and construction of the Su-27 fuselage.
A fighter jet is an aircraft containing two ships. The length of the aircraft is 23.34 meters, with a height and wingspan of 6.36 meters and 14.05 meters, respectively.
The Su-34 has a 30mm GSh-301 cannon and 180 rounds of ammunition. This weapon has a maximum firing rate of 1,500 rounds per minute.
While the muzzle speed reaches 860 m/s. The Su-34 also has 10 hardpoints for weapons payloads and carries a variety of missiles, including air-to-air, air-to-surface, anti-ship and anti-radiaton.
In addition there is also the R-73 which can intercept targets at an altitude of 0.02 km to 20 km. As well as targeting a G-load of up to 12g with a target speed of up to 2,500 km/hour.
The Su-34 also carries a number of bombs and guidance and guidance rockets. These include the KAB-500 laser-guided bomb developed by the Moscow Regional State Research and Production Company.
Meanwhile, from the system side, the Su-34 is equipped with an electro-optical fire control system with advanced infrared.
The Su-34 engine is powered by two NPO Saturn AL-31F turbofan engines. The aircraft can also be equipped with the MMPP Salyut AL-31F-M2/3 or NPO Saturn 117 engines.
The engine is mounted under the wing and also features geometric air intakes. There is a rotor guard installed in the air inlet, by protecting against the entry of foreign objects.
The fighter jet can carry 12,200 kg of fuel in two tanks on the wings and four in the fuselage. In addition, there are three 3,000 liter external fuel tanks.
The Su-34 has a speed of up to 1,900 km/h at altitude and 1,300 km/h at sea level and a flying range of up to 4,000 km.

Howitzer M777 155mm Made in America
The footage begins with an aerial view of a Ukrainian howitzer being pounded by Russian projectiles and Ukrainian troops fleeing in fear.
The second part of the footage ends with the howitzer being pulled into the forest to avoid detection, but the area is then also bombarded by Russian artillery.
The Russian Ministry of Defense claims that its attack drone, backed by artillery, destroyed the Ukrainian firing position of the US-made 155mm M777 howitzer near the settlement of Podgornoye, Russia's state-owned news agency — Tass reported.
“In the residential area of Podgornoye, a team of Russian unmanned aerial vehicles and artillery reconnaissance systems established the firing position coordinates of the US-made 155mm M777 howitzers used by the Ukrainian military. The operator of the unmanned aerial vehicle sent a missile strike into the firing position from the American howitzer battery, damaging several weapons," the ministry said in a statement.
The ministry further confirmed that the Ukrainian fighters were hit by artillery fire as soon as they concentrated the prime movers and weapons in the forest. All American equipment and howitzers were reportedly destroyed.
The latest attack can be considered a positive development for Russia, as the Ukrainians appear to have been wreaking havoc on Russian sites in recent days, blowing up targets with their new M777 howitzers.
The M777 is a 155mm field howitzer manufactured by BAE Systems. It can release Excalibur guided shells and has an effective firing range of 40 kilometers.
It is one of the latest US arms shipments to land in Ukraine as part of military aid. In addition to the United States, Canada, Australia and Germany are said to have delivered M777 Howitzers to Kyiv.
According to a senior Pentagon official, dozens of Ukrainian military personnel have completed training in the new US-supplied weapons. "An increase from about 200 [trained personnel] a week ago," the officer said, adding that 310 soldiers were trained on the US-made M777 howitzer.
More than 50 Ukrainians are currently being trained, and the United States has started a new two-week maintenance training course. A senior Ministry of Defense (DoD) official stated a few days ago that about 60% of the 90 howitzers scheduled for delivery are in Ukraine, along with 155mm ammunition.

Will join NATO
Russian President Vladimir Putin reminded Western countries that Russia would respond if NATO began strengthening the military infrastructure of Sweden and Finland. This was conveyed by Putin after the two countries decided to join the NATO military alliance after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Putin has previously repeatedly cited the expansion of the post-Soviet NATO alliance eastward towards Russia's borders as a reason for the invasion of Ukraine.
Speaking to the leaders of the military alliance of the countries of the former Soviet Union, Putin said the expansion of NATO was being used by the United States in an "aggressive" way to exacerbate the already difficult global security situation.
Russia, Putin said, has no problems with Finland or Sweden, so there is no direct threat of expanding NATO to include those countries.
"But the expansion of military infrastructure to the region will certainly provoke our response," Putin told leaders of the Collective Security Treaty Organization, which includes Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan.
"What (response) it is -- we will see what threats it creates for us," Putin said at the Grand Kremlin Palace. "Problems are created for no reason at all. We will react accordingly," he stressed.
Russia has given some specific instructions on what it will do in response to the expansion of NATO by the joining of Finland and Sweden.
One of Putin's closest allies, former President Dmitry Medvedev, said last month that Russia could deploy nuclear weapons and hypersonic missiles in the Kaliningrad region if Finland and Sweden joined NATO.
Before Putin spoke, Russia's Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said the West should have no illusions that Moscow would accept NATO expansion.
Moscow says NATO threatens Russia and that Washington has repeatedly ignored the Kremlin's concerns about the security of its borders in the West, the source of two European invasions in 1812 and 1941.
Finland gained independence from Russia in 1917 and fought two wars against Russia during World War II in which the country lost territory.

Russian submarines are armed with caliber missiles
On April 24, Russian sources shared photos of the strengthening of the firepower of the Russian Fleet in the black sea which had just lost the command ship Moskva. One of those that received the lethal munitions was the Velikiy Novgorod (B-268) submarine, a Kilo Class upgrade, which was apparently loaded with four 3M14K Kalibr land attack cruise missiles in the port of Sevastopol. The photos were reportedly taken in mid-April.
The attack submarines of the Black Sea Fleet are reported to have carried out several strikes against high-value military targets of the Kiev forces since the start of Russia's special military operations in Ukraine. The most recent use was reported on April 22.
The Kalibr 3M14T cruise missile has a range of up to 2,500 kilometers. The missile guidance system uses the INS [inertial navigation system] and the GLONASS satellite guidance system. The missile can fly at low altitudes thanks to the TERCOM system.
The missile has a speed of up to Mach 3 the speed of sound capable of carrying a 450 kg HE-FRAG warhead or a bunker destroyer warhead.
The Kalibr family includes several types of land attack, anti-ship and anti-submarine missiles that can be launched from warships, submarines, land vehicles and even combat aircraft. Ground attack cruise missiles launched from the Kalibr family have been seen in action in Ukraine.
At least six Kilo Upgrade submarines are known to be in service with the Black Sea Fleet's 4th Independent Submarine Brigade. These quiet, well-armed submarines can provide serious offensive capabilities. Especially after the Moscow shipwreck.

The oil war going on
The oil war that took place between Russia and Saudi Arabia made the United States (US) hit hard. US President Donald Trump even called Russia and Saudi Arabia crazy because of their oil fight.
In an interview with Fox television, Trump said he objected to an oil price war between Russia and Saudi Arabia. "It's costing the US energy industry a lot. It's a fight between Saudi Arabia and Russia, and they're both going crazy," he said.
Shortly after, Trump reportedly called Russian President Vladimir Putin directly. In the conversation, the two of them discussed several things, including the issue of oil prices.
In a press statement, the White House stressed the importance of oil price stability in global energy markets. Trump also said he would review sanctions previously imposed on Russia, which were previously imposed on a number of companies from the White Bear country.
The oil price war between Russia and Saudi Arabia is expected to last a long time. Citing AFP, Saudi Arabia announced it would increase its oil exports to 10.6 million barrels per day from May.
"The kingdom plans to increase oil exports by 600,000 bpd from May, bringing total exports to 10.6 million bpd," a Saudi ministry official said.
Saudi Arabia does not want to stop boosting its oil exports, making it a major oil exporter. Their exports initially took effect in April, then added again for May.
The additional total since they announced the plan now stands at 3.6 million barrels per day. This is a very significant figure considering the current global market conditions and the decline in world oil prices.
World oil prices are facing a tough test. Citing Reuters, world oil prices are now at their lowest level since 2002. It fell nearly 8%, triggered by the shutdown or lockdown of several countries. This policy is expected to continue in the next few months.
Brent oil is now at US $ 22.5 per barrel, down 65% this year. The decline in oil prices also hit several state currencies such as the Russian ruble, Mexican peso and Indonesian rupiah by up to 2%.

Russian Missile Destroys 100 Ukrainian Troops and NATO Mercenaries
Russian Missile Destroys 100 Ukrainian Troops and NATO Mercenaries
As previously thought, Russia has completely changed its strike strategy from aircraft to deploying long-range missiles. Ukraine is literally being bombarded with ballistic missiles.
The Russian military attacked the Kharkiv defense headquarters in March, killing more than 100 Western nationalists and mercenaries, Major General Igor Konashenkov, spokesman for the Russian Defense Ministry, said at an April press conference as quoted by SF.org.
"As a result of the high-precision strike with the Iskander missile operational-tactical complex on the defense base in the city of Kharkiv on March 31, more than 100 nationalists and mercenaries from Western countries have been confirmed dead," Konashenkov said.
The Russian Defense Ministry released precise footage of the attack, which appeared to have been carried out with an Iskander-K cruise missile.
The main armament of the Iskander-K, the 9M728 cruise missile, has a known maximum range of 500 kilometers and a flight altitude of up to six kilometers. These missiles are primarily guided by the GLONASS and INS [inertial navigation systems] satellite navigation systems.
The 9M728 is also equipped with the TERCOM [terrain contour matching] system, which allows it to fly at very low levels to avoid detection by enemy radar.
The more advanced Iskander-K cruise missile, 9M729, has a higher yield warhead and a new guidance system for higher accuracy. The Russian military said the missile had a range of 480 kilometers. Most parts and components of the 9M728 and 9M729 missiles are identical.
The Russian military has used Iskander-K cruise missiles and 9M723 quasi-ballistic missiles from Iskander-M to strike high-value military targets in Ukraine since the start of special operations in the country.
Ukrainian government forces, who have reportedly lost most of their air defense capacity, appear desperate in the face of Russia's never-ending missile attacks.

Turkey rejects US request to send S 400 missiles to Ukraine
Turkey has rejected the idea of sending a Russian-made S-400 missile defense system to Ukraine to help it fight off invading Russian forces.
"The request is unrealistic, it provides an opportunity to discuss issues Turkey has recently faced with NATO and the US," Communications Director Fahrettin Altun said Wednesday in an opinion piece for the Wall Street Journal.
Reports over the past week circulated that the United States had informally spoken to Turkey about the unlikely possibility of transferring the S-400s to Ukraine as it tried to fend off the Russian invasion that began on February 24.
Altun also cited an article published last week which stated that if Turkey complied with the request, there would be an improvement in relations between Washington and Ankara.
The US will send F-35 fighter jets which have been banned because Turkey bought the Russian S-400 and the US will also send Patriot missiles to Ankara "without preconditions."
Ismail Demir, head of the Presidency of Defense Industries (SSB), on Wednesday also said Turkey had no plans to abandon the S-400 system, which has become a point of contention between Washington and Ankara.
"This is not a topic of discussion for us. We discussed this issue in the past. Abandoning (the use of the S-400) is impossible," Demir told Russia-based Izvestia newspaper.
Ankara initially ordered more than 100 F-35 jets, built by Lockheed Martin Corp., but the US removed Turkey from the program in 2019 after acquiring the S-400 system.
Turkey has called the move unfair and demanded reimbursement for the $1.4 billion (TL 20.7 billion) payment.
Turkey's purchase of the S-400 has also triggered US sanctions. In December 2020, Washington blacklisted Demir SSB, and three other employees.
Washington argues that the S-400 air missile systems could be used by Russia to covertly obtain classified details about the F-35 jets and that they are not compatible with NATO systems.
Turkey, however, insists that the S-400 will not be integrated into NATO systems and will not pose a threat to the alliance.
Altun criticized the US account of Ankara's decision to buy the air missile defense system, saying they ignored that Ankara was the first to approach the US for the Patriot system procurement.

Ready for Cooperation in the Energy Sector
Turkey and Israel announced a new era in relations on Wednesday after years of rift when the Israeli president paid an important visit to Ankara.
Appearing in front of the camera after speaking with Isaac Herzog, Erdogan described the Israeli president's visit as "historic" and a "turning point" in Turkish-Israeli relations.
Erdogan stressed Turkey's readiness to cooperate with Israel in the energy sector, adding that Turkey's foreign and energy ministers will soon visit Israel for further talks on enhancing cooperation.
Herzog's visit marks the first such trip by an Israeli leader in more than a decade, as the two countries have agreed to rebuild their ties despite differences.
“I believe this historic visit will be a new turning point in Turkey-Israel relations. Our common goal is to revitalize political dialogue between our countries based on common interests and respect for shared sensitivities," Erdogan said.
"I think this is an opportunity to revive cooperation on the topic of energy that was started earlier," he added, referring to Turkey's seismic drilling and vessel activities in the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea.
Turkey and Israel have previously sought to cooperate on energy resources, but talks have never progressed further.
Erdogan has previously said that the two countries could work together to bring Israeli natural gas to Europe, reviving an idea discussed more than 20 years ago.
Gas supplies from the Mediterranean could reduce Europe's dependence on Russian gas, following Russia's invasion of Ukraine and subsequent calls from European leaders to reduce the continent's dependence on Moscow.

Ukraine Praises Turkey's Bayraktar Drone Ability in War Against Russia
Turkish-made Bayraktar drones are highly efficient in Ukraine's battle against invading Russian forces, Kyiv's ambassador to Ankara, Vasyl Bodnar, said on Sunday.
Bodnar's remarks came during a press meeting in Ankara as Ukrainian troops struggled to prevent Russian troops from returning from the capital Kyiv and residents taking shelter in subway tunnels, basements and underground garages.
The combat-proven Unmaned Aerial Vehicle (Drone) has proven its worth in Libya, Syria, and the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
Turkey has sold Kyiv several batches of Bayraktar TB2 drones developed by Baykar, which in the past have been used against Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine. Ankara and Kyiv earlier this month agreed a deal aimed at expanding drone production in Ukraine.
Apart from Ukraine, the Bayraktar TB2 has also been used by Qatar, Azerbaijan and Poland, which in May last year became the first EU and NATO member state to acquire drones from Turkey. Many other countries are also hinting to buy UAVs.
The Bayraktar TB2 – with its electronics, software, aerodynamics, design and sub-systems completely nationally designed and developed – stands out among the world's most advanced UAV systems in its class with its flight automation and performance.
It has a record altitude of 27,030 feet for more than 24 hours in the air and can carry 150 kilograms (over 330 pounds) of payload. Can operate during the day and night.

Economic Consequences of the Ukraine War
Russia's invasion of Ukraine was swift and dramatic, but the global economic consequences would be much slower and less spectacular. However, apart from Ukraine, Russia is likely to be the biggest long-term economic loser from the conflict. Russia's invasion of Ukraine was swift and dramatic, but the economic consequences would be much slower and less spectacular. The war itself was tragic, first and foremost for the Ukrainian people, but also for the Russian people and the global order more generally. When something like this happens, we hope it's like a morality game where all the bad consequences play out dramatically in every dimension, including the economy. But the economy doesn't work like that. True, financial markets reacted quickly to news of the Russian invasion. The MSCI All Country World Index, the leading global equity gauge, fell to its lowest level in almost a year. Oil prices rose above $100 a barrel, while European natural gas prices initially jumped nearly 70%. The increase in energy prices will have a negative impact on the global economy. Europe is particularly vulnerable, because in recent years not much has been done to reduce its dependence on Russian gas, and in some cases – notably, Germany, which is abandoning nuclear power – has even made it worse. Oil-importing countries will experience a drag from higher prices. The United States is better protected: Because its oil production equals its oil consumption, the more expensive oil is roughly neutral for GDP. But higher oil prices will hurt US consumers while helping the more constrained segments of business and workers linked to the oil and gas industry. The price spike will also add to inflation, which is already at a generation high in the US, Europe and other developed economies. But some perspective on this immediate consequence is in order. At $100 per barrel, oil is about a quarter below its inflation-adjusted price for 2011 to 2014. Additionally, oil futures prices are lower than spot prices, indicating that the market expects these gains to be temporary. Hence, the central bank may largely see through events in Ukraine, neither delaying tightening nor accelerating it in response to higher headline inflation. And global stock markets have been on the rise over the past year.

Australia chooses to upgrade BAE Hawk fighter trainer instead of buying new
Australia's BAE Systems has been awarded an AUD1.5 billion (USD1 billion) contract to extend the life of the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Hawk Mk 127 main combat trainer fleet.
A surprising decision amid question marks, is the Hawk-age aircraft sufficient to be used as a training aircraft for F-35 pilots?
This contract will run for 10 years, continuing BAE Systems' support for the platform it built for the RAAF and delivered from the early 2000s.
Australia has a total of 33 Hawk Mk127 aircraft which were purchased in 1997 and commenced delivery in 2000. 12 are manufactured in the UK at BAE's central plant, while 22 are manufactured at BAE's Australian plant in Sydney.
“The contract will … progressively renew the performance of the fast jet trainer aircraft through 2032,” said the Department of Defense (DoD) in Canberra.
The deal covers the provision of sustainability and supply chain services, Hawk software and hardware upgrades, and engineering support. Australia's BAE Systems said the program would also be "the basis for the progressive upgrade of mission systems".
Additionally, the contract facilitates integration into the RAAF's Rolls-Royce Mk 951 Adour aircraft from 2025, aligning the platform with the Royal Air Force's T2 Hawk aircraft.

Russia accuses US of lusting for war in Ukraine
While the United States has warned that Russia could strike Ukraine at any moment, Moscow is calm and not beating the drums of war, with pundits and ordinary people alike not expecting President Vladimir Putin to launch an attack on its former Soviet neighbour.
The Kremlin has dismissed US warnings of an imminent attack as "hysteria" and "absurdity," and many Russians believe Washington is deliberately stoking panic and stoking tensions to stoke conflict for domestic reasons.
Putin's angry rhetoric about NATO's plans to expand into Russia's "doorstep" and his refusal to listen to Moscow's concerns has touched the hearts of the public, capitalizing on the West's sense of betrayal after the end of the Cold War and widespread suspicion of Western designs.
Speaking to reporters after US President Joe Biden's phone call with Putin on Saturday, Kremlin foreign affairs adviser Yuri Ushakov lamented what he described as US "hysteria" about the alleged imminent invasion, saying the situation had "reached an unbearable point". bearable." Maybe."
Panicking, the US said Russia had concentrated more than 130,000 troops in eastern, northern and southern Ukraine and had the weapons needed to launch an attack at any time. This hysteria had made a scene in the pro-Western media to attract sympathy. Russian officials angrily denied plans to invade Ukraine and dismissed Western concerns about a buildup near the country, arguing that Moscow was free to deploy its troops wherever it liked in the country. its national territory.
"We don't understand why they are spreading false information about Russia's intentions," Ushakov said of the US warning of an imminent attack.
In 2014, Russia annexed Ukraine's Crimean Peninsula after the overthrow of the president of the Moscow-friendly country and lent its support after a separatist uprising in Ukraine's eastern industrial heartland, Donbass, in which more than 14,000 people died in fighting.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has taken a more aggressive tone, denouncing Washington's warnings about an imminent Russian attack on Ukraine as "war propaganda" by the US and some of its allies.

MiG-21 series
The MiG-21F Fishbed is a supersonic short-range attack fighter and the first generation production aircraft of the popular MiG-21 series. The prototype of this aircraft, the E-5 (pronounced Ye-5) first flew in 1955 and appeared to the public during the Soviet Aviation Day at Tushino Airfield, Moscow in June 1956. During the Vietnam war, this aircraft was used to attack the United States aircraft fleet, also used in the Arab-Israeli war, including the Six Day War and Yom Kippur War, the India-Pakistan war, the Yemen crisis and various wars in various parts of the third world, so it deserves to be dubbed the AK-47 in the air, or sharp gravel. from the east because initially the west, especially the United States, underestimated this plane. More than 30 countries in the world, including allies of the United States, use this aircraft. At least 15 versions of the MiG 21 have been produced, some produced outside the Soviet Union. Approximately 8000 of these aircraft have been produced.

Ukrainian T 64BV tank received 3rd gen optical and guidance devices
Ukrainian T-64BV tanks receive 3rd generation optical and guidance devices
The main battle tank of the Ukrainian army T-64BV has received updates in recent weeks and is starting tests to verify its effectiveness. The news was announced by the largest state defense company in Ukraine.
The modernization of the T-64BV was carried out by the Kharkiv Armored Plant, which is part of the Ukroboronprom. The tank is now equipped with new third-generation optical and guidance devices, an anti-accumulation screen on the rear grille, and a rubber guard on the turret. In addition, the combat vehicle's fuel system has been upgraded and additional armor protection of the fuel tanks has been installed.
The T-64BV is designed to break through all types of fortified enemy positions, as well as for military support of mechanized ground forces. Tanks managed to overcome firing points, armored vehicles, manpower.
Herman Smetanin, director of the Kharkiv Armored Plant, said that the updated T-64BV already has an advanced communication system. The old Russian radio stations have been removed and the new navigation system (internal and external) complies with NATO standards.
Modernization around old tanks
Ukraine produces the T-84 tank. However, the government decided to upgrade the T-64, as it would be cheaper than the T-84. The T-64 tank is a Russian-Ukrainian production from the Cold War and Soviet Union era. According to unconfirmed information, more than 2,200 T-64 tanks are in service with the Ukrainian ground forces. The government has decided that at least 100 of these 2,200 tanks need to be upgraded to the T-64BV version.
This modernization began in 2017. In addition to the latest upgrades, over the years the tank has received NBC protection, passive and explosive jet shields, automatic fire suppression systems. Attention was also paid to propulsion, as the T-64BV received an engine with 850 horsepower. However, the new engine failed to resolve some of the tank's problems. Still relatively slow and less maneuverable. The reason: the new engine failed to keep up with the increased weight of the additional bumper.
