Hello Grampa Dave:
Unless I'm mistaken I assume the bulk of what they've sold them is ammo, armour and explosives. They've probably thrown in some (useless?) tech stuff in the bag. What I mean by this is they've no interest in talking about or marketing their best anti-US weapons stuff; any good stuff Russia has we won't read about until a few years.
Mafia/KGB? The funny thing is, now that Putin ( a "Gebist") is running the show it's difficult to see what people are up to. My impression is that under Yeltsin you could see the footprints much more easily.
Cheers
Nice to hear your remarks again

It will be interesting when this over to see how involved the Russians have been since and before Putin.

The over rated GPS blocker was new and like most Russian $hit was overcome. The night vision stuff is Russian, I don't know what type/stage is being recovered.

One can only hope that the Syrians/Iranians are as well supplied and trained by the great Ruskies who are still fighting WWII.
