Russian Armed Forces crumbling before our eyes: No point denying it at this point; the West has defeated Russia.

Russian army proving to be the paper tiger that some always claimed to be.

The gross incompetence of the Russian army continues. No wonder Putin has urgenty convened its Security Council.

Iran isn't suddenly going to change its strategy in Syria because it risks losing face due to Israeli air strikes. Let's be honest, Iran has no overmatch in the Syrian theatre and the domestic forces in the region are intrinsically too weak to put up a fight. No other option than to creatively...

So you're arguing that Russia wasted its military reputation and resources - in the greater scheme of its fight against NATO - for meagre Ukrainian territory and the overall weakening of the Ukrainian state? That all these military blunders by Russia are somehow compensated because Ukraine has...

I'm not going to list all the military blunders that have exposed Russia's military as an extremely archaic, corrupt and inept institution. But Russia underestimating Ukrainian capabilities and preparedness is going down as one of the most consequential intelligence failures in the history of...

By all means put it simply because you clearly lack the coherence and strategic insight to make it intelligible or sophisticated.

The Russians could and should have calculated these factors in their overall war scenarios and gameplanning. But then again, their archaic and outdated military thinking and procurement is just a misfit for 21th century fighting. Which they thus far have failed to completely grasp and adjust...

It's time to say it: the Russians are putting up an abysmal performance in Ukraine. On par with Israel's in 2006 against a similar well-entrenchment force (Hezbollah). The incompetence is simply staggering and some of its infamous weaponry clearly overrated. But perhaps a wounded and battered...

Iran's application of commercial satellites in relation to potential military targets are closely monitored by western intelligence agencies, as demonstrated by the Ain al Asad attack. This new satellite gives Iran far better military and opaque capabilites.

The satellite is Russian-made, eventually being handed over by Moscow. Iran's own indigenous made remote sensor satellite (Noor-2) has a resolution of ~10m. So certainly a huge step-up. The new facility constructed at the Alborz Space Center (top left) likely functions as its ground station.

Russia to launch spy satellite for Iran but use it first over Ukraine A new satellite that Russia is preparing to launch on Iran’s behalf next week will greatly enhance Tehran’s ability to spy on military targets across the Middle East — but first, Moscow intends to use the spacecraft to assist...

Russia's space agency to launch Iranian satellite into orbit Aug 3 (Reuters) - Russia will launch a satellite on behalf of Iran into space on Aug. 9, the Roscosmos space agency said on Wednesday. The spacecraft, a remote sensing satellite called "Khayyam", will be sent into orbit by a Soyuz...
