RT @JamieMctrusty: 29th May, 1941. The light cruiser HMS Orion, carrying over 1000 troops evacuated from Crete, came under heavy air attack from Junkers 87s while attempting to reach Alexandria. She suffered severe damage which killed at least 260 men (some sources suggest more), many of them soldiers, and wounded 280.
Shortly after 07:30, the Flag Captain of HMS Orion was severely wounded by a strafing attack while on the bridge; he would die shortly afterwards. At 09:00, the cruiser received a direct hit on ‘A’ turret which completely destroyed it and caused a serious fire which required the forward magazines to be flooded. The blast from the bomb bent the barrels of ‘B’ turret backwards, rendering it useless.
At 10:45, another bomb passed through the bridge and detonated below, causing carnage among the troops on the packed mess decks. There was also a near miss at the stern, leading to significant fl...

@LodevMeulen @JeffreyDriscol7: But that’s a lot, that’s similar or the same as other AWACS aircraft radar range operated by Russia and USA
The US E-3 Sentry has a radar range of 375.5km, and the Russian A-50 has a radar range of 322km

Ukraine 🇺🇦 will have 1/3 the number of AWACS aircraft as Russia has. They will be able to see Russian missiles, helicopters, and planes 200km to 300km into Russia and above the frontline
Thank you, Sweden 🇸🇪 for pledging two ASC-890 Early Warning Aircraft

@casualdiot: They would help significantly in allowing F-16s to know where Russian planes and missiles are and be aware of their air space; however, to launch AMRAAM missiles at Russian fighter jets, these F-16s would need to be at much closer range due to their radar or have upgraded radars.

🇾🇪🇺🇸 | #Yemen: US Air Force MQ-9 Reaper UCAV fell in an uninhabited area in Yemen. The vehicle remained mostly intact after touching the ground.
The Houthis already claimed responsibility for its downing.

In 2018, Sweden had 180 PBV 302 APCs in storage in varying states of condition. Ukraine needs large quantities of armored vehicles, and even older APCs will be very useful. (h/t @The_Lookout_N)

A Russian voenkor recommends using electric bikes because they are silent and have a reduced heat signature that are more difficult to be be detected by thermal optics. 19/
