From RT with standard embellishment, however it confirms S400 system. We'll soon see how good it is.

Seems the Russians now have TWO in the area.

Twitter pics this morning show a single S-400 launcher in Latakia, where the radars were pre-positioned when the Russians first moved in.

The other is on the Moskva, offshore.

Kinda brilliant, actually.
There can’t be any “Accident” or “rebel attack” excuses if the Turks target a Russian Man-of-War at sea.

Sounds like a ~33% improvement.....

If wars are not fought ruthlessly, with the intention of humbling the enemy, then there is little point.

This is not a football game, with referees and time-outs.

Not even much time to remain in a huddle. Some things require a very short response time.

Turkey has shown they do not particularly like the Russians, but this is hardly a recent development. Eggshells are as deadly as land mines, and there is sometimes no way to tread lightly.

I was wondering at those “other” elements involved in the sweep through the area where the second plane was downed.

Wonder if they got this guy?

How much is a TOW missile and looked like he was trained to use it. How many millions for that?
