#IMPORTANTE #ULTIMAHORA #Army2020

📢📢📢 1) El Ministerio de Defensa de #Rusia 🇷🇺 ha cerrado sendos contratos para la construcción de dos submarinos diésel de los proyectos 636.3 y 677. La ceremonia de firma ha tenido lugar coincidiendo con el foro Army 2020 Image
2) Los contratos se han otorgado a los Astilleros del Almirantazgo de San Petersburgo y no han sido los únicos importantes firmados durante una feria un tanto descafeinada por la situación internacional y el #COVIDー19 Image
3) Además de la compra de nuevos submarinos, se ha contratado también la reparación y modernización de los submarinos de ataque de propulsión nuclear del Proyecto 971 Akula destinados en la Flota del Norte, en este caso con Zvezdochka... Image

Well, #ARMY2020 forum starts today.

So far the most interesting thing is this Abakan "non-strategic" missile defense system.

Follow @saidpvo for great photos.

Personally I'll be there this Tuesday. Image
My first thought is about this concept revealed/leaked some time ago: non-strategic missile defense for cities, road-mobile, wheeled chassis.
Close up of data sheet about Abakan. Explicitly mentioned mission: enhance existing air/missile defense capabilities against massive ballistic missile salvos.

Expect some Kinzhal-style #hyperhype at #Kavkaz2020. MiG-31K shown for a reason during Gerasimov inspection.

There's also a video (flash at the moment) with some nice angles...
One can hear "battle duty w/4 aircraft" clearly. ImageImageImageImage
Fun fact: Kinzhal operations are explicitly mentioned in the release sent out to the media, but on the MoD website: militarynews.ru/story.asp?rid=… Image

Karakayev pre-#ARMY2020 forum interview is a bit shallow: redstar.ru/ekspozitsiya-s…

- 81% mod. missile systems (!) in the SRF by the end of 2020 (76% in 2019)
- preparations for Sarmat flight tests still underway
- future missile defense penetration as Avangard mission

1/
- focus on support equipment and infrastructure
- next gen support vehicles to be demonstrated at the forum
- deployment of automated gun sentries completed at Kozelsk, ongoing in Yasny
- roundtables on IT, comms and life cycle management for SRF
- lots of SRF Academy stuff

2/
Looking forward to the SRF Academy booth, it was where Sarmat scale model was found last year for the first time ever. And their people are nice to talk to.

Fun fact: Karakayev emphasizes the value of open, informal discussion on the future development multiple times.

3/3
