Russia signed a contract two years ago for 10 modernized Il-78M-90A tankers but has only produced one prototype thus far and production of Il-76MD-90A was heavily delayed. https://t.co/V4lpZeAAtt — PolitiTweet.org

The before and after photos of how Russia responded to the UAV attacks in January 2018 that damaged several aircraft. Russian channels are already criticizing Russia's military leadership for leaving strategic bombers side-by-side without protection. 4/ https://t.co/PjV6LMq13v https://t.co/hoZt8MPZvB — PolitiTweet.org

Destruction of strategic bombers will undoubtedly get more attention, but, if Russia loses Il-78 tanker aircraft, that might be a bigger problem. — PolitiTweet.org

One of the common issues for the Russian Air Force is that many of their aircraft are not housed in hangars, but outside. Russian built hangars for their aircraft at Khmeimim airbase in Syria after UAV attacks there on NYE 2018. 3/ https://t.co/tXmsuGfqKd — PolitiTweet.org

Baza says that the explosion at Entgels was caused by a UAV. Engels houses the 121st Heavy Bomber Aviation Regiment and Dyagilevo houses a training center and Russia’s only Il-78 Tanker Regiment. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

There is a trade off here. Commercial DJI UAVs are cheap but they don't have enough range to locate many targets, are more susceptible to EW, and can't laze targets. UAVs with those capabilities will be more expensive. — PolitiTweet.org

He said that they have been arming DJI UAVs with MON-50 anti-personnel mines, but they rarely find light targets with the range of those UAVs and they aren't effective against armored vehicles or concrete shelters. 4/ — PolitiTweet.org

He says that the loss of 2-3 in an assault group of 15 makes any further advance impossible and says that this effect is the same for units with contract soldiers or volunteers. He also says that tanks are critical for supporting infantry despite Ukrainian anti-tank weapons. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Alexander Khodakovsky says that Russian offensives end when their advance units sustain casualties. He says that soldiers focus on evacuating their wounded or go into a state of panic instead of continuing the attack. https://t.co/qcIE9EkroB https://t.co/qhLnTpZuwS — PolitiTweet.org

This is particularly true for things like aerial combat and electronic warfare, which are more difficult to observe through social media than ground combat. Some articles written in the spring on lessons learned were essentially disproven by Ukraine's recent offensives. — PolitiTweet.org
