We invite you to explore the overview of events and materials from the week, with a brief description compiled for you in this article.
Roland Air Defense System
Ukraine is in need of more air defense missile systems and corresponding missiles. Given that the Defense Forces currently possess models like the MIM-23 HAWK, it is worth considering other similar weaponry.
In this context, the air defense missile system Roland comes to mind, which was developed and supplied in the 1960s and 70s. We discuss what happened to all the European Roland air defense systems that could have been used in Ukraine to intercept "Shaheds" and more.
"Bulava"
Recent satellite images have emerged showing how Russia is preparing and equipping its intercontinental ballistic missile P-30 "Bulava," which is based on Project 955 "Borey" nuclear submarines.
0This is almost the first time such activities have been "spotted" in satellite images and made it into the public domain, so this case deserves analysis. We explain what the preparation of the Russian nuclear missile P-30 "Bulava" looks like from space.
Explosives for Shells
The United States has not had its own TNT production since 1986, but has finally decided to open manufacturing facilities for TNT in Graham, Kentucky.
1Until now, the U.S. has simply been importing explosives. We discuss how the country is resuming the production of explosives for shells after a 38-year hiatus.
T-55 and PT-76
Russians report that their military received 28 T-55 tanks and eight PT-76s from "Mosfilm," along with six BMPs and eight tractors, with the transfer of this equipment having taken place last year, coordinated by an entire ministry of defense of Russia.
