The Russian-made S-500 Prometheus, also known as the 55R6M Triumfator-M, represents a significant advancement in the realm of air defense systems. Developed by Almaz-Antey, this latest generation system is designed to engage and neutralize a wide range of aerial threats, including intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), hypersonic cruise missiles, and low-orbit satellites, at altitudes up to 200 kilometers. The S-500 Prometheus, initiated in 2009 with its first prototype completed by 2012, emerged from its predecessors with capabilities far surpassing earlier models. The Russian Armed Forces received their first pre-production prototypes in 2016, as part of a strategic enhancement of their defensive capabilities. The final phase of the S-500's testing was conducted on February 22, 2024, demonstrating its ability to intercept hypersonic targets effectively, which are known for their high-speed, maneuverability, and ability to evade traditional missile defense systems. View Quote A pivotal component of the S-500 is its missile technology. It employs the 77N6-N and 77N6-N1 missiles, both capable of reaching hypersonic speeds and designed for kinetic impacts, delivering precision through sheer velocity. These missiles enhance the system's ability to handle threats at substantial distances, with a reported range of up to 600 kilometers. Furthermore, the system's response time of three to four seconds marks a substantial improvement over its predecessor, the S-400, which has a response time of nine to ten seconds. View Quote Waiting for images and video of it being toast like the S-400's Russia has deployed. |

France is taking part in the training of ten 🇺🇦 pilots. They are aged between 20 and 22. Six of them are still training in the 🇬🇧 to learn English. The other four, who speak fluent English, have little experience of flying civilian aircraft or training on the 🇺🇦 Air Force’s L39 trainer aircraft. It’s only after this approximately six-month internship that the students will be introduced to flying the F-16. View Quote |

Seems a good way to bankrupt the world’s police force / your biggest threat. Pop off a 1/2 dozen proxie wars the USA is forced to finance, via cash payments / arms shipments via looting our existing war stockpiles, supplying tiawan, Israel, Ukraine, South Korea, and multiple other countries with billions / trillions in money and arms, while USA / Allys use $1 million + dollar missiles to shoot down $1200.00 cheap drones by the thousands every month.
Eventually between those tactics, americas gigantic welfare apparatus , and idiot politicians funding every single idiot sponsored program / fund / debt / of the entire USA and huge % of foreign countries problems , USA will wind up depleted weapons / ammunition inventories, unable to resupply due to deep financial issues, and unable to respond to domestic, or global issues and those same enemies are free to run amuck. Isn’t the strategic petroleum reserve still empty ? Looted by Biden to drop gas prices a few cents for optics and not refilled when prices were cheaper ? Better option would be to heavily CUT spending and force our ally’s and ESPECIALLY European countries / nato countries get off their asses and start rebuilding their own militaries. Vs USA financing / protecting the entirety of nato alone as other nato members cut spending to blow money on importing and funding third world hordes. |

Create regional bullshit conflicts and get us to insert ourselves into them until we cannot reliably supply our partners or ourselves with adequate munitions. At that point Russia, China, North Korea, Iran, and Hezbollah will launch simultaneous independent actions to take contested territory that each wants. There won’t be the manpower or munitions to deploy to stop any one of them. |

“The damage is a result of a HIMARS MLRS strike, two missiles were used. It is worth noting that the strike occurred immediately after the arrival of the air defense system at the position. In other words, the Ukrainian Armed Forces reconnaissance drone was waiting for the complex to arrive at previously known positions. The HIMARS operator made an inaccurate strike, which resulted in minor damage to the radar. Also, it is worth noting the death of the signalman of the radio technical troops unit, senior sergeant Andrey Nikolaevich Bushuev (position “Koshma”), due to shrapnel wounds. Interesting point is that along with the S-300 air defense system, the Pantsir-S1 air defense system was also in position, which was responsible for covering the air defense system. However, the Pantsir failed to “detect” the approach of the missiles. Kreminna direction, Lugansk region. 10-15 April 2024.” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GL7bK_AXgAAsTCg?format=jpg&name=900x900 There are signs of larger shrapnel damage on the radar. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GL7k3K_WMAAz349?format=jpg&name=4096x4096 Great post.

And "we" are basically in 1942 of the current war. Lets stand by and see what happens is the US gives maybe 20% effort and sends all our trash made before 1990 sitting in storage. |
