The ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช system is really modern, powerful and effective. Already during the first baptism of fire in October last year, the system shot down 100 percent โœ… of the targets, these are mostly cruise missiles, - says the anti-aircraft gunner.

Our "#BukM1" destroyed 10 ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ targets - #Mi24 helicopters, #Su30, #Su35 aircraft. At first we were stationed in the #Chornobyl area, then we moved to another one. When they offered to go to study in ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช and learn new technology, Vadym agreed without thinking.

In #Afghanistan after pol leaders fled & soldiers surrendered, #Taliban have talked about an inclusive national #army curently being reorganised. But what hardware/capabilities will they have

๐ŸงตImageImageImageImage
They have
-Millions of rounds of ammo
-10s of thousands of guns, radios other hardware
-1000s of MRAPs & Humvees
-Dozens of aircraft
-100s of technicians/operators

@AJEnglish had exclusive access to what #Taliban says is the beginning of its own #AirForce
Military analysts say much of the estimated $88 BILLION firepower built by US in its 20-yr #Afghan war is either obsolete/inoperable. The coalition destroyed large amounts of hardware on its way out.

Now some being rebuilt from scrap and spares.

It was shot with MANPAD. Azerbaijan apologized and offered to compensate. Unclear what reaction will follow, but so far Moscow was avoiding any intervention
This is a good point: the Russian helicopter was shot down at the territory of #Armenia proper. There have been incidents before, but #Russia remained silent every time. Now also there's not much reaction despite CSTO agreements.
@MFAofArmenia: "Notably, that tragic incident occurred far away from the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict zone, in a place, where no military clashes have been recorded during this period."
