Russias New Toys!

Tested out on Us?

Spite may cost the lives of millions once more and another world war, if this nerve agent business is not ended with Russia?

Russia has some new toys it claimed last week and it has had to upgrade its weapon systems in light of the madness of both Donald Trump and Mrs. May's allegations?

There is still a lot going on in the world, Syria, Libya, N-Korea, and Afghanistan, the problems with Islamic terrorism have not gone away just because the media is not reporting much!

Britain has become obsessed with chemical weapons, but then last week it sold more shells to Saudi-Arabia to kill more people in Yemen!

The Russian federation boasts it has a sleeping drone torpedo and some new nuclear powered aerial drones, while it has upgraded all it Nuclear missiles and Soviet era technology. We know they have a new MBT, new Surface to air missiles they are selling to the Saudis and the Turks based on the BUC system.

Much of what we also know is that what we have seen in relation to the conflict in Syria, new aircraft, helicopters and ship launched missiles. But its now their capability to hit any where in the world that is worrying and also their claims they will defend N-Korea?

One has to wonder about China and what they could do, with all that licenced western technology against us?

Military Trucks. Part-Two.

Ever Changing World.

Most of the trucks that we looked at in Part-One of this series of articles have all over the years been in the process of standardisation for their compatibility to fit the NATO Lockheed Hercules C-130 transport aircraft.

But now we will take a look as what is available around the world and how they have either been exported or licensed built in other nations since, the break up of the old Soviet Warsaw Pact block in the 1990's. 

The Czech Tatra T815 Kolos has been exported to India, while the 6X6 Tatrapan Armoured car was developed for the Slovak army.

Brazil is to soon replace its ageing Engesa EE-50 truck and variants, while it is still in Service in Angola. Western Star is the main producer for the Canadian armed forces, while the Austrian Styr is built in Canada under licence.
