“Forte10 now having a close look at Sevastopol.”

“No moonlight tonight over Crimea.”

Wow, you can really set the mood…

“The acceleration will push the number of senior citizens to 520 million by 2050, or 37.8 per cent of the population”

Robots are coming to take care of the elderly, in that timeframe.

Under the control of the Godless communist Party however, the term “take care of” may have a different interpretation - something more like “recycle into mulch”, rather than “cook, clean and shop for”.

Another night of pressure on the ruble, requiring lots of intervention to keep it propped up (this time around 95 to the dollar).

Just a few days after the Russian Central Bank used its biggest tool in a big way, raising interest rates a whopping full 3.5 % (from 8.5 to 12% in one emergency meeting), it is still having to actively spend foreign reserves to intervene in the market. They are fighting a strong tide against the ruble.

They did get it back from 100 to 1, but their job is clearly not done, and it seems to be costing them a lot.

The RBS 70 is a laser beam rider, flares won't defeat the missiles.

I would expect the Ka-52 Attack Helicopter would have a moving map threat display which displays the FEBA.

Now, the Ka-52 pilots will orbit >9km east of the FEBA.
