For the third day in a row, a series of incidents at Russian airfields of strategic importance has

been a hot topic. Incidents whose origin we do not know, but which have completely and

completely humiliated Russia, as a country that scares the whole world with its nuclear triad.

But, the interesting thing about this whole story with Russian aircraft,

which it is not capable of producing now or ever

in the future and which are worth their weight in gold to it, is something else.

It is no secret that the whole world is watching the war in Ukraine.

Including those countries that Moscow considers its historical enemies.

And these countries have been seeing the following for the past more than nine months...

They see a country whose army was thought to be the second army in the world and a number of

disrespected analysts claimed that Ukraine would fall in 3 days, 96 hours, a week, a month....

eventually losing with a bang and in disgrace on all fronts.

They see how Russia has squandered all the potential that it did not really accumulate,

but exploited all these decades of inheritance from the USSR.

Not only has it remained technologically and technologically backward, but it has

degraded in the industrial sense... not even capable of mass production of tanks today!

They see not only all the shortcomings of the tactics and strategy of the Russian armed forces,

the old management system, the mediocrity of the command, but also the invariability of

all the flawed components of the Soviet army in the Russian army.

But, from the latest series of incidents, they have seen that Russia lacks a modern air defense

system. Or, at the very least, there is a lack of professionalism among anti-aircraft missile crews.

After all, the Ukrainian air defense has been working wonders since the first days of the war,

and it is an old Soviet backbone of short, medium and long-range systems.

Whereas Russia has more modern equipment.

International observers of the war have seen

that regardless of what exactly struck the Russian airfields it bypassed the lauded

Russian air defense system and accomplished the task. That is, these observers, whom the Kremlin

frantically fears, see not only that the "second" army in the world pulls World War II-era tanks

and howitzers into the war zone in Ukraine, but that it essentially has no air defense.

What's surprising about that, though? Wasn't Russian-made air defense disgraced in Syria?

And what happened in Libya? Wasn't the Azerbaijani army in Karabakh snapping Russian-made air

defenses like nuts? Wasn't the missile cruiser "Moscow" primarily a sea-based air defense system,

covering the entire Black Sea grouping of Russian troops from missile strikes?

After which it sank, remember? After it was hit by those very missile weapons. Wasn't the Tor missile

system supposed to cover the Vasily Bekh ship from missile attacks? And many other cases ... Well,

and airfields. At least for now. But they are not the first and not the last on this endless list.

Russian air defense? The buyers of this junk are to be congratulated on

their investment. But the main thing is not congratulations.

The main thing is that now everyone knows about it! Absolutely everyone.
