💥 Successful test of the world's first grenade launcher drone

The Bulava shock unit from the Separate Presidential Brigade named after B. Khmelnytskyi installed a grenade launcher on the Queen of Hornets FPV drone and conducted a successful test.

From now on, an ordinary grenade launcher can work at a distance of 5+ km. This opens up new opportunities for the military.

We can't tell you more details yet, except that we will continue to work in this direction in collaboration with Bulava with the goal of going into mass production to help our military.

Quite a unique video. Not just the shooting down of a Russian reconnaissance UAV, but also the recording of the strike🔪

KRKN FPV COMPANY warriors shot down SuperCam with your FPV. And the Achilles battalion of the 92nd OShBr removed this blow from the side. Beauty 😍

The Heavenly Rusoriz is not just an aid to the army. This is depriving the enemy of air reconnaissance and saving many lives.


So, the story. Yesterday, the Russians carried out a huge mechanized assault with 46 units of equipment at the position of 46 OAeMBr. You may have already seen this video.

Just then, the enemy raised Orlan to the sky to conduct reconnaissance and help manage the battle.

But this Orlan was immediately shot down by the soldiers of one anti-aircraft regiment with the help of your FPV interceptor🔪

Rusoriz on the ground and in the sky!

On September 12, Russian forces continued their counterattacks across the Ukrainian bulge in the Kursk region but achieved only minor successes. The limited progress is likely due to ongoing Ukrainian offensive operations and defensive counterattacks in the area, according to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).

A Russian missile against a cargo of wheat for Egypt. Today's strike in the Black Sea was against an ordinary civilian vessel immediately after leaving Ukrainian territorial waters. According to preliminary data, fortunately, there were no casualties.

Ukraine is one of the key global donors of food security. The internal stability and life of dozens of countries in different parts of the world depends on the normal and smooth operation of our export food corridor.

Our food supply to countries in Africa and the Middle East region is critical. We will continue to do everything to protect our ports, our Black Sea and the supply of food to the global market. This is a real priority for Ukraine - the protection of life, and it should be a priority for every country as well.

We are waiting for the reaction of the world. Wheat and food security should never be a target for missiles.

❗️ Judging by how many hours the explosions have been going on, it is definitely the ammunition depot on the Mangush side that is detonating


https://t.me/andriyshTime/27224

💥 Cotton.

Arrival in Mariupol district. The attack has been going on for half an hour, Russian air defense is not capable.

Hitting in the triangle p. Portovske village Rybatske and Melekine (again). Detonation is present immediately after impact. Zarevo can be seen 10 km away. from the point of impact in Mangush.

Then the results should be excellent. Especially considering the concentration of air defense settlements in this triangle🤞

UPD. also pre-hitting between Mangush and Mariupol. Mass detonation at all points. In view of the impending thunderstorm today, the city will have a sleepless night.

UPD 2: Left Bank area and Northeast from Maruipol in the direction of Donetsk pleasant glow of fire and detonation.

It's good how. It feels like they decided to work out all the coordinates for a year in a week)🤞🥳

🚩 A video appeared on the network in which the SOU engineering machine removes the "dragon's teeth", thus paving the way for our equipment, southwest of the n.p. Novy Put, Kursk region. The events take place after 08.09, because on the satellite images for that day, the IFS is still in place.

This may indicate an intensification of hostilities in the direction of Hlushkovo. Enemy resources write about the battles in the area of n.p. It's funny that north of this place.

We destroy the enemy on their territory

Operators of the 14th Separate Regiment of the BpAK, together with the HIMARS calculation, conducted a successful operation to destroy a significant number of enemy personnel in the Kursk region. These units were gathering for the purpose of preparing for assault actions on the positions of units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The professionalism of the operators of the Unmanned Systems Forces and their equipment with modern means form a technological advantage, which allows us to effectively strike the enemy not only on the front lines, but also in the deep rear, changing the course of hostilities and bringing our victory closer.

The US secretary of state, Antony Blinken, gave his strongest hint yet that the White House is about to lift its restrictions on Ukraine using long-range weapons supplied by the west on key military targets inside Russia, with a decision understood to have already been made in private.

Speaking in Kyiv alongside the UK foreign secretary, David Lammy, Blinken said the US had “from day one” been willing to adapt its policy as the situation on the battlefield in Ukraine changed. “We will continue to do this,” he emphasised.

Blinken said he and Lammy would report back to their “bosses” – Joe Biden and Keir Starmer – after their talks on Wednesday with the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

The foreign secretary suggested Iran’s dispatch of ballistic missiles to Moscow – revealed this week – had changed strategic thinking in London and Washington. It was a “significant and dangerous escalation”, he said.

He added: “The escalator here is Putin. Putin has escalated with the shipment of missiles from Iran. We see a new axis of Russia, Iran and North Korea.” Lammy urged China “not to throw in its lot” with what he called “a group of renegades”.

British government sources indicated that a decision had already been made to allow Ukraine to use Storm Shadow cruise missiles on targets inside Russia, although it is not expected to be publicly announced on Friday when Starmer meets Biden in Washington DC.

The two leaders are planning to discuss the war in Ukraine, and how it could be ended, as part of a wide-ranging foreign policy discussion, though they will avoid an intense focus on any individual weapons system, as the aim of the conversation is strategic.

✔️ Pike to the depths - scouts in the Black Sea destroyed the Russian Su-30SM

🌊 During the operation in the waters of the Black Sea, soldiers of the special unit of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine destroyed a Russian Su-30SM combat aircraft with a MANPADS hit.

☝️ The fighter that fell into the sea belonged to the 43rd separate naval aviation regiment of the Russian Armed Forces, which is based at the airfield of the city of Saka in the temporarily occupied Crimea.

❗️ The occupiers lost contact with their warship on September 11, 2024 around 5 am. Roughly three hours later, the Russians launched a search and rescue operation involving the An-26 aircraft, as well as Mi-8 and Ka-27 helicopters.

⚡️ At lunchtime, the invaders reported to the command about a characteristic stain from aviation fuel discovered in the sea, 70 kilometers northwest of Cape Tarkhankut, and soon they also saw the wreckage of the destroyed Su-30SM.

💰 The cost of such an aircraft is approximately 50 million dollars.

⚔️ The fight continues!

🇺🇦 Glory to Ukraine!

This week, Max and Maria were joined by military analysts Michael Kofman and Rob Lee to discuss the latest phase of the war in Ukraine. Max and Maria asked them for their thoughts on the ongoing Ukrainian offensive in Kursk, and whether or not this seizure of Russian territory by Kyiv exposes Russian threats of escalation as hollow. If they are hollow, does that mean Western "red lines" on certain kinds of aid to Ukraine should be reassessed?

Title (auto translated):

Germany no longer wants armament from Switzerland

A letter from Germany makes a big wave. Swiss companies are excluded from applying for procurement by the Bundeswehr.


Article Contents (auto translated)

A Swiss company wants to participate in a large German tender of 100,000 stationary multispectral camouflage equipment for the Bundeswehr. The catch: The company's production facility must be on the EU territory, it means the tender.

The company thinks a mistake. The European free trade association Efta with Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway was probably forgotten. It is addressed to the Federal Office of Equipment, Information Technology and Use of the Bundeswehr.

This is followed by the disillusionment: the Efta states had not been forgotten. They were deliberately decided in favour of a production facility in the EU. One will not deviate from that.

Letter explains German "Lex Switzerland"

A short time later, a letter from Germany to the Federal Armaments Armour Armour Armament Armours found, which "Le Temps" reported on. The Federal Office, which is under the responsibility of the Federal Ministry of Defence, wanted to avoid an effect as in the case of ammunition for the cheetah air failure, which is under the responsibility of the Federal Ministry of Defence. A production facility in the Efta states has been deliberately excluded. The multispectral camouflage equipment was one of the central technologies for the Bundeswehr. In addition, they would have to be able to pass on to a partner country in the event of war.

With the letter to the hickhack between Germany and Switzerland, the German Federal Office referred to around 12,000 shots for the cheetah flight anti-aircraft armor. Germany wanted to pass it on to Ukraine. It had bought it in Switzerland, it needed the country's blessing because of a non-re-re-export statement. For reasons of neutrality, she said no.

The letter is proof that there is a "Lex Switzerland" in Germany: the country no longer buys arms products from Switzerland. Arms head Urs Loher formulated it drastically at "Le Temps": "Switzerland is no longer trustworthy for Germany. In the German parliament, for example, "Swiss Free" is apparently used in the same breath as "China Free."

Parliament has already decided in the Netherlands not to buy any more arms from Switzerland. Similar considerations are also available in Denmark and Spain. It is not yet clear in the VBS whether the German letter is a shot in front of the bow or just the beginning. Civil derivable blame

In the case of the bourgeois parties, the situation ensures mutual recriminations. "We are definitely destroying the Swiss arms industry," says FDP President Thierry Burkart. The left had been working on it for decades with the tightening of the War Material Act. "The SVP is now their enforcer, because with the misinterpretation of our neutrality, it prevents the transfer of defence equipment from European states to Ukraine."

Burkart had submitted a motion in 2022, in which he called for a non-re-export declaration to be completely waived if the delivery to states which were committed to our values. "It has nothing to do with neutrality if other countries want to support each other with weapons that they bought in Switzerland years ago."

The SVP passes the hot potato to the middle. "The damage caused the defects to the war material law," says President Marcel Dettling. "The middle thing about it is due to it with its hat and hott: it intensified the law with the left, but wanted to return after the war has become." Without tightening, the export competence would have remained with the Federal Council. "This policy lacks longevity."

The People's Party had been opposed to an increase in the law, but then had no exception to Ukraine, because it was not prepared to deliver in war zones. "Now we are offering a hand that countries that have purchased armaments in Switzerland may be able to export them again after a period of five years."

The center takes the government to its duty. "The Federal Council may authorise the export of weapons purchased from Switzerland to other countries, based on Art. 184 and Art. 185 of the Federal Constitution," says President Gerhard Pfister. "The general increase in the arms export law still allows this. But the SVP FDP Federal Council does not want to do that." And Parliament has not yet succeeded in finding a solution that was capable of majority.

Pfister counters the SVP accusation with a counter-question: "Why is it now fighting against the deliveries of protective vests for reasons of neutrality, but wants to allow the re-export of weapons?"
