πŸ’£ A cluster bomb is a weapon that breaks apart in the air and releases multiple explosive submunitions called β€œbomblets” across a wide area. They can be dropped from aircraft, fired from artillery batteries or launched as warheads of various missiles, including…
πŸ’£There are three main types of cluster submunitions in the west:

βž–DPICM (dual-purpose improved conventional munition), the standard submunitions for artillery cluster shells and older cluster bombs, composed of a mix of anti armor shaped charges and anti personnel fragmentation charges.

βž–CEM (combined effect munitions), that implement highly flammable zirconium rings to give the weapon incendiary effects on top of the aforementioned anti armor and anti personnel ones.

βž– SFW (sensor fuzed weapons), a class of their own, releasing multiple canisters containing smart submunitions (usually four per canister) that after being dragged by their parachute over the top of the desired area of effect, fire a small rocket under the canister bringing It at a slightly higher altitude, release the submunitions which start spinning at very high velocity and scan the area below through IR or Lidar seekers, lock onto the tracks and then shoot anti tank shaped charges on the top of them. Here's a video showing how a CBU-105 (a guided SFW bomb) works.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¨πŸ‡³ CIA chief William Burns calls China "Washington’s greatest strategic threat". While the United States wants to maintain diplomatic dialogues with China, as evidenced by the recent trip of Antony Blinken and Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen to Beijing, they simultaneously use aggressive phrases. President Joe Biden last week called Xi Jinping "a dictator". An approach also followed by China. In the days when Yellen was in the capital, President Xi Jinping inspected Chinese troops in the southern district a few kilometres from Taiwan, repeating the need to modernise the People's Liberation Army.

Tendar: "If it is true that Prigozhin met Putin 5 days after the Wagner rebellion then it would underline Putin’s weakness. Whatever deal has been arranged, it is detrimental to Putin’s rule, which is increasingly becoming a hollow shell, and I’m getting the feeling that this is exactly the target of all of this. I will try to describe what I think:

I can only speculate, but this whole theater looks like an attempt to gradually undermine and remove Putin without compromising the system as such. I already mentioned numerous times that Prigozhin’s final target is becoming the tsar of Russia. Wagner’s successful advance on Rostov and later on the other Russian cities was a demonstration of power and it was certain that Prigozhin’s troops would have taken the Red Square. However, even when being militarily successful it would have cost far more Russian blood, causing unpredictable effects even for Prigozhin. It threatened to shatter the very power structure Prigozhin was attempting to take over. In the end both, Putin and Prigozhin, would have lost.

I believe that the truce between those two men is based on this calculus, leaving an unstable and tenuous truce, which both sides reluctantly have had to accept, but it also caused a chain reaction which is unfolding, with Putin’s end as its final target, unless Putin makes an attempt on Prigozhin’s life.

Like I said, I can only speculate but it would fit. Prigozhin and Putin are like two cartel groups fighting for supremacy, but still aware that if they strike too strong that the β€œFederales” move in and end both of their businesses. It is getting interesting"

🚁 What happened to Ka-52s?

πŸ‡·πŸ‡Ί As we could see at the beginning of the Ukrainian counteroffensive the Russian Air Force used Ka-52s on the frontlines to attack ukrainian forces from stand off ranges. Ukranian soldiers could not use Manpads to target Ka-52s because their 9K121 Vikhr anti-tank missiles have a greater range than them. To counter this threat, Ukrainians have started using the MBTs behind the most advanced positions and using them as both direct and indirect Fire support, baiting the Kamovs closer and achieving some shootdowns. There are also rumors about a not yet disclosed tactical Shorad system, designed in very little time by the Brits, that seem to have solved the problem. Furthermore a massive strike of about 12/14 Storm Shadows has hit the Berdyansk airbase, where these helicopters are deployed, with at least one missile aimed at the pilots barracks. According to various sources, Russia had 133 Kamov KA-52s in 2022 and it lost 38, a bit less than a thier of the fleet, but these losses don't account the latest not yet visually confirmed ones.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡·πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡½ According to the Wall Street Journal, the head of the Security Council of Russia, Nikolai Patrusev, began a spy operation in Mexico. Moscow wants to destroy American democracy and destabilize society by increasing the polarization of Washington. Given the vast border with the United States, Mexico is perfect for gathering information. In particular, in Mexico the staff of the Moscow embassy has increased with new eighty-five members. Mexico, like Cuba, was an important spy territory during the Cold War. Both China and Russia try to threaten the American backyard in Latin America.
