I recently wrote about the F-35 in Israeli service here.  Now here is another article on the same subject.

Previously posted about this new missile here.  Now, there are reports that it has failed in 4 out of 4 tests.  Story here.

Russia’s latest anti-ship missile

Story here.  Interesting that they are using the MiG-31 as the carrier for the missile.  I have my doubts as to its advertised effectiveness.

A new kit of the “Russian U-2”

Resin Russian Bomb

This looks like a must have.

Israeli airstrike

Neat video of an Israeli missile striking a Russian-made Syrian SA-22.  The SA-22 didn’t seem to be defending itself.
