A large explosion has gone off at the M4 Highway wounding 2 x Turkish soldiers. While progress has been made to clear & secure the road, incidents such as this show it's far from completed

1/On Monday, 2 Israeli pilots took off for a combat operation, as soon as they gained altitude, the navigation system in their aircraft started to flounder and therefore they made an emergency landing, without completing the task...
#Syria #Israel #Russia #ElectronicWarfare
2/ ..."We are concerned with the use of Rus. EW systems. They prevent us from performing combat tasks. We ask the Russian side not to use these systems against our aircraft, " the Israeli command said
#Syria #Israel #Russia #ElectronicWarfare
3/ Rus MOD: "At the moment, our EW systems have new technologies that need to be tested somewhere. We believe that Syria is the most suitable location. And it is not our fault that Israeli and US aircraft are effected by these tests....
#Syria #Israel #Russia #ElectronicWarfare
4/....But we will not forget that these two countries themselves are acting aggressively in this region. Even if we did it on purpose, there would be nothing wrong with it," Sergei Khatylev said.

An IED has exploded during the 20th joint Russo-Turkish patrol on the #M_4 highway at the entrance to #Arikha. 3 Russians are injured as well as several Turkish soldiers. There are reports of #RuAF airstrikes in Latakia
#Syria #Idlib #Russia #Turkey
1 Russian & 1 Turkish vehicle were damaged by the #IED.
#RuAF airstrikes at Kansafra and al-Fatira...possibly linked to the explossion

Latest reports say the attack was carried out by a suicide bomber in "Jihad/Shahid Mobile" aka #SVBIED. Pic of the damaged Turkish Kipri & debris in the area
#Syria #RuAF #Afrin #Turkey
After bombing #Al_Bab for the 1st time in a long time, Russian aircraft were flying sorties over territory controlled by Turkey & it's proxies, including Afrin, first time since 2018. Some see a connection with the earlier Turkish bombing at #Derbasia

#Syria #Idlib
After an extended pause, the #RuAF has reportedly bombed militants in the #Binish area, north of Idlib. Reinforcements have been pouring in from both sides and a fair bit of shelling in recent days. #SAA offensive to clear the area up to the M4 highway looks likely
#Syria #Idlib
Militants have released a longer video (incl UAV footage) of the #Jihad_Mobile #SVBIED attack on the Russian #BTR_82 during the Russo-Turkish patrol on the M-4 highway on July 14
#Syria #Idlib #Russia #Turkey
1/ Pretty clear warning for Turkey that it's not implementing the agreement
#Syria #Idlib #Turkey #Russia
#IED attack on a Russo-Turkish patrol on the M4 highway, This time a Turkish vehicle was hit. No word on casualties. The same group that carried out the attack on the BTR-82 last month has claimed responsibility
#Syria - the circus continues
#Syria - Rpg hit the tyre. 2 soldiers lightly injured.
#Syria #khmeimim #IL_76 #Russia
7 x Il-76 transport aircraft have headed to Syria from Chakalovski airbase in Russia. It's been a long time since so many have arrived in Syria all at once.
#Syria #Russia #US
Yet another incident between Russian & US forces. The Americans were probably again trying to block a Russian convoy....sooner or later someone will get hurt as a result of such stupidity
#Syria #Russia #US
Another (better) video of the Russo-US incident. Apparently 4 x US soldiers suffered "concussion" type injuries

The Syrians report that yesterday's Israeli strikes were carried out with 7 surface-surface missiles. As mentioned, some missiles were shot down but others caused damage and 2 #SAA KIA + several wounded + 1 civilian killed.
#Syria #Israel
At 22:23 Israeli planes launched missiles from the direction of #At_Tanf in the direction of #T4 airport. Syrian air defenses repelled the attack, shooting down most of the targets. Some material damage reported

#TurkishArmy is conducting a solo patrol on the #M4 highway after the Russian side *refused* to participate due to the expiration of the Moscow agreement.
Meanwhile the #RuAF launched a series of airstrikes on targets in southern Idlib
#Syria #Idlib #RuAF
Over 20 airstrikes reported in the past 24 hrs, reportedly the most widespread in the past several months. RusVesna agency reports a #HTS training camp where militants were trained by foreign instructors was hit by a #Iskander Missile fired from #Khmeimim

#Tu22M3 (Backfire) bombers have been deployed to #Khmeimim airbase confirming earlier rumours. Looks like 3 of them have arrived. This is their 1st deployment on Syrian soil
#Syria #RUAF
1 of the #Tu22M3 conducted it's first training mission over the #Mediterranean
#Syria #RUAF
Potential area of operation of #Tu22M3 bombers (based on their range) based in Syria who have already begun patrols over the #Mediterranean
#Syria #RUAF
2 #MiG31K's which can fire #Kinzhal #hypersonic missile, together with #Il38 & #Tu22M3 bombers have arrived at #Khmeimim Air Base for an exercise with #RusNavy ships & subs. I suspect the British carrier which is in the #Mediterranean will be used as target practice
#Syria #Mediterranean
#RUAF & #RuNavy exercise has started off the coast of Syria
Link to video below
#RuNavy ships ro conduct missile firing 30km from the British aircraft carrier. Maneuvers will take place today south of Cyprus - this area of the #Mediterranean will be closed.

#RuAF #Bombers
#Tu160 & #Tu95MS bombers practiced simulated launching of cruise missiles in the Northern #Arctic region of #Russia. Note the focus of video is the use of the Tu-95 tail guns which we don't see very often
#RuAF #Tu95 #NK12MP
The Bear's Kuznetsov NK-12MP engines up close. Still the world's most powerful turbo prop engine. A #Rostec subsidiary has developed an upgrade called NK-12MPM which features increased power output & reduced noise & vibrations

So looks like the new #Sukhoi 5. gen light fighter will be presented during the upcoming #MAKS2021 show. See link below

#RuAF #LMFS #ΠΠΠ€Π‘
A few more teasers of the new 5 gen light fighter
vk.com/milinfolive?w=β¦
#RuAF #LTS #LMFS
One more (rear) pic...going by the map of the pavilions, the new fighter is designated Sukhoi-LTS. Also, the previously published CGI matches approx the contours of the aircraft
#RuAF #LTS #LMFS
Pure speculation at this point but the back of the aircraft resembles to a degree the rear of the #YF23 but with a single engine...like the YF-23, it *might* not have rear horizontal tails
#RuAF #LTS #LMFS
couple new pics...showing some "skin"π It definately doesn't have horizontal tail surfaces
and and artists impression of what it *might* look like
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
Latest pics showing a peak of the air intake. Seems to match the model shown in 2020

#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
A few screenshots from the teaser video showing some details
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
Now that we know the LTS looks nothing like the F-35 (as many claimed), the latest non-sense is that it's a copy of the #X_32, Boeing's candidate for the JSF....draw your own conclusions from the pic below
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
Chinese CGI of the LTS showing possible (actually probable) weapons bay arrangement and size comparison with the #Su57....take it with a grain of salt at this stage
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
New pic π§
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
Larger version of the earlier pic and with the optical distortion removed....the original pic was 'elongated' to a degree
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
The air intake up close...seems to be split in 2. So not a DSI type....at least not a conventional one
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
1/ with some delay (had to work) some pics from the unveiling of the LTS. I have doubts it's just a mock up. More likely a ground test airframe judging by the details
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
2/ LTS pics continued...last pic missile launch (CGI)
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
The front wheel is slightly to the left of the central axis, it's assumed to make space for the EOTS
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
Comparison with #Su57 from Paralay Forum. 1st one is to *estimate* the diameter of the nose compared to Su-57...2nd one is just a overlay
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
Again on the possible DSI air-intake n the LTS....as said previously, if it is one it's not a conventional looking DSI compared to existing ones (J-10 example)
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
Good pic of the main (central) weapons bay. Looks quite big. If it's the same as on the #Su57 (as is believed) the dimensions should be 4.5 x 1.15 m
#RuAF #LTS #Checkmate
Interesting comparison of LTS & #MiG_MFI (90's early 2000's new fighter prototype) rear control surfaces. Both lack conventional horizontal tails
