Russia worries you? Then be concerned about these relatively unknown weapon systems...


via Sputnik.
Russian military will receive six types of new weapons that are superior to similar systems designed abroad between 2018-2027, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Yury Borisov told teachers and students of the Military Academy of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Russia.

Borisov listed Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missiles, a prospective aircraft system for battlefield aviation, T-14 main battle tank on an Armata platform, S-500 air defense system, Nudol anti-ballistic missile defense system, and Tirada-2S system for jamming satellite communications, Russian VPK newspaper reported.
Story here. 

Quite honestly when I read the article I was initially unimpressed.  T-14?  Know about that.  S-500?  Ditto.  Sarmat?  Ok, its a nuke but we more than likely won't cross that threshold.

But!

The Nudol?  Never heard of that.  The Tirada-2S?  Never heard of that either.

A quick Google took me over to Air Power Australia and it seems that once again they've been on that shit for a long time.

We messed up folks. 

The war on terror, the whack a mole stuff in the Middle East has allowed potential threat nations to not only catch up but to exceed us in certain areas. Whether you like it or not there is a gap in our electronic warfare capability in comparison to Russia.  The Nudol can knock down ballistic missiles and target sats?  The Tirada can go after our sats by jamming?

Hard work is necessary.  We need to banish the idea of fighting easy from our brain housing group.

The next war is gonna be a meat grinder and if it plays out like we're laying out (in concepts for how we will fight) then we're gonna see numerous US units cut off, isolated and destroyed.
