Russia tests world-famous smart mines Russia is testing state-of-the-art PTKM-1R anti-tank mines in Ukraine.
Although developed years ago, it is Russia’s first use on the battlefield. With eight grounded legs, they can be fastened anywhere on the battlefield. Then wait patiently until the enemy artillery arrives. Sensors, mounted in four directions, detect the approach of enemy artillery.
So as soon as the tanks get close, this mine will launch an explosive into the sky. Later, the explosive device will hit the top of the tank from the air. Since a tank is most vulnerable when attacked from above, the tank will shatter in that attack. This is how Russia’s Smart Mine works.
Meanwhile, the German federal government plans to send seven tanks of Howitzer 2000 to Ukraine, German news outlet Welt reported on May 3. According to the media agency, the full training of the Ukrainian army will take place in Germany. Weapons for Ukraine include advanced and digital fire control systems.[ഉൾപ്പെടുന്നു
Meanwhile, as the brutal war in Ukraine intensifies, the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Defense has released its latest intelligence update on the current situation. The UK Defense Ministry said on its official Twitter handle that Russia’s armed forces were now significantly weaker physically and ideologically as a result of the Ukraine invasion.
“Recovering from this will exacerbate sanctions and have a lasting impact on Russia’s ability to deploy conventional forces,” the ministry said.
According to the latest UK intelligence update, Russia’s defense budget nearly doubled between 2005 and 2018, including investment in various high – end air, land and marine capabilities. The UK Ministry of Defense stated that this is the basis of New Look, a major military reform program launched in 2008. It claimed that Russia had not been able to conquer Ukraine despite the modernization of its physical equipment.
In addition, “due to failures in strategic planning and execution, Moscow has not been able to turn numerical strength into a decisive achievement,” the UK Ministry claimed.
