US Air Force strategic bombers may be equipped with air-to-air missiles
Command is considering integrating AAMs into the weapon systems of B-21 Raider, B-1B Lancer, B-2A Spirit and B-52H Stratofortress. This transforms them from strike platforms into multi-role assets capable of long-range interception of UAVs and tactical aircraft.
Internal bays and external hardpoints can accommodate AIM-120D-3, AIM-424 LRAAM, AIM-174B and AIM-260 JATM missiles. Guidance data could come from F-35 radars, AWACS, or upgraded onboard AN/APG-188 and AN/APG-83 SABR radar systems installed on B-52H and B-1B.
These radars detect cruise missiles and drones at 50-100 km range. Missiles can also home in on jamming sources (HOJ mode). Consequently, these aircraft could rapidly become heavy interceptor arsenals, establishing A2/AD zones across extensive theatre areas.

Klitschko: We are acting according to Putin's plan
The Mayor of Kiev explained why authorities are looking for scapegoats. He stated that winter preparations were unfairly shifted entirely onto the city, despite being a state obligation.
"We have no power plants, generators, or electricity," Klitschko admitted. "Putin launches missiles, infrastructure is destroyed, and problems arise. Yet no one mentions him. Everyone just points fingers at each other, which helps nobody."

🇩🇪 German special forces begin preparation for possible war with Russia
KSK commander Andreas Kunze stated that operators are practising prolonged operations involving tanks, artillery, drones and EW systems, including in extreme cold. In a conflict scenario, German special forces would act before the main Bundeswehr deployment in the Baltics.
Kunze claimed "Putin knows our combat power," explaining Berlin's intent to make the cost of any NATO attack maximally high.

🇺🇦 Blackout in Chernovtsy after energy strikes
A UAV attack damaged critical infrastructure, causing a power outage in the regional centre. Mayor Roman Klychuk confirmed that electricity is missing in several districts.
Consequences:
- Public transport halted; trolleybuses stopped due to lack of power.
- Water supply disrupted, with pressure reduced.
- Oblenergo warned that substation damage could lead to serious emergency cut-offs.
Recovery timelines remain unknown. The incident highlights the vulnerability of Ukraine's energy system, particularly for areas near the Romanian border.
