🚨 OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!🚨 Pakistan🇵🇰 has officially announced to inducted... China’s HQ-19 Air Defense System 🇵🇰✅🇨🇳—a true game-changer in missile defense and space warfare! 🎯 Target: Indian Ballistic Missiles (Agni Series) India’s Agni series ballistic missiles, known for their long range and nuclear capability, are among the most serious strategic threats in the region. The HQ-19 system uses advanced phased-array radars and infrared sensors to detect and track these missiles immediately after launch, often while they’re still ascending. It calculates their trajectory in real-time, enabling HQ-19 to fire its interceptor missiles that use a “hit-to-kill” kinetic impactor — meaning the interceptor destroys the target by direct collision without explosives. This technology ensures high accuracy and reliability against fast-moving, high-altitude targets like the Agni missiles. 🛰️ Anti-Satellite (ASAT) Capability HQ-19’s capability isn’t limited to missiles — it can also target and destroy satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO), including Indian military reconnaissance and communication satellites. By using high-precision tracking radars and infrared sensors, HQ-19 locks onto satellites orbiting at altitudes of 200–2,000 km. It launches interceptor missiles equipped with kinetic kill vehicles (KKV) designed to collide with satellites at extremely high speeds, destroying them through sheer impact force. This effectively neutralizes enemy space-based surveillance, communication, and navigation assets — crippling India’s space advantage. ⚙️ How Does HQ-19 Intercept? 1. Detection: Powerful radars scan the skies to identify ballistic missile launches or satellite movements. 2. Tracking & Targeting: Infrared sensors track the heat signature, while onboard computers predict the exact trajectory. 3. Interceptor Launch: HQ-19 fires a fast, maneuverable interceptor missile equipped with a kinetic kill vehicle. 4. Kill Vehicle Guidance: The kill vehicle uses onboard sensors and thrusters to adjust its path mid-flight, ensuring a direct collision with the target. 5. Destruction: The interceptor collides with the missile or satellite at extremely high velocity, destroying it through kinetic energy alone—no explosives needed. ⚡ This official procurement dramatically boosts Pakistan’s defense against India’s missile threat and space assets — signaling a new era of air and space dominance! 👉 With HQ-19, Pakistan sends a crystal-clear message: No missile, no satellite is untouchable anymore! 💪🇵🇰show more

Once Bagram is reactivated, expect a full resumption of... U.S. ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) operations across the region: if the U.S. returns to Bagram, it won’t be for peacebuilding or regional development. It will be to reassert full-spectrum dominance over South and Central Asia—including Pakistan, Iran, and western China. MQ-9 Reaper and RQ-170 Sentinel drones flying 24/7 surveillance missions along the Durand Line. RC-135V Rivet Joint platforms conducting deep signal interception and electronic surveillance across Pakistan, Iran, and western China. • SIGINT aircraft intercepting mobile, military, and encrypted communications within Pakistan’s borders. • ELINT and radar-mapping aircraft identifying Pakistan’s defense infrastructure, troop movements, and missile positions. • Persistent aerial surveillance of sensitive areas—Balochistan, KP, Punjab—tracking everything from nuclear convoys to military installations. And it won’t stop at Pakistan. Western China’s Xinjiang region, including nuclear and missile sites near the Afghan, will also fall under U.S. surveillance coverage. From Bagram, the Pentagon can closely monitor PLA activity, signal traffic, and strategic build-up near Kashgar and Hotan. Let’s not forget: the last time America was in Bagram, drone strikes were a routine affair—from Waziristan to Bajaur, even into settled areas. And here’s the catch: India, which may appear to have friction with the U.S. today, could easily realign with Washington tomorrow. The Indo-U.S. defense axis is driven by long-term strategic interests, not temporary political squabbles. If Bagram becomes operational again, India will undoubtedly benefit from U.S. intelligence, gaining direct insights into Pakistan’s military posture. It’s not just America. Israel will also tap into this intelligence pipeline, using Bagram as a launchpad for deeper surveillance across Iran and Pakistan. The airspace will turn into a multinational electronic warfare zone, flooded with drones, SIGINT /ISR platforms.show more

‼️🇯🇵🇨🇳 BREAKING - Due to the threat from China,... Japan will allocate an additional $5.4 billion in its 2025 budget for missiles and ships. Japan’s government has approved an additional $5.4 billion in 2025 to purchase extra ships and anti-ship systems. The corresponding document was published by Japan’s Ministry of Defense. The supplementary budget is allocated separately from the main defense funding. Specifically, $370 million is allocated for the acquisition of SSM-2 anti-ship missiles and Type-12 coastal defense missile systems. It is noteworthy that the missiles planned for delivery are not long-range versions — their maximum range will be up to 250 km. Japan will also purchase Type-03 Kai medium-range surface-to-air missile systems. The systems will be deployed on Yonaguni Island, located about 110 km from Taiwan. In total, Japan’s Ministry of Defense plans to acquire 29 batteries of the new surface-to-air missile systems. At the same time, about $800 million will be directed primarily toward accelerating orders for the construction of military vessels — specifically, multi-purpose frigates and submarines. In addition, part of the budget will accelerate purchases of UH-2 multi-role helicopters produced by Subaru. It should be recalled that the adjustment of Japan’s military budget is taking place in the context of the threat coming from China, especially following the national-security comments of Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, who emphasized that a Chinese attack on Taiwan would threaten Japan itself, and that Tokyo might become a party to this conflict. For this reason, China has intensified its propaganda campaign, accusing Japan of returning to militarism and imperialist approaches. Moreover, in recent days, incidents involving increased activity of Chinese forces near Japanese territory have become more frequent. In response to China’s increased violations of Japan’s borders, both at sea and in the air, Japan’s Ministry of Defense announced the deployment of Type-03 air-defense batteries and electronic warfare systems on Yonaguni Island, 110 km from Taiwan — a move that sparked even greater dissatisfaction in Beijing. Japan’s multi-billion-dollar special boost, aimed at rapidly strengthening its military capabilities, suggests that geopolitical tectonic shifts may soon begin in East Asia and across the Indo-Pacific basin. Furthermore, the strengthening of Yonaguni Island — and Japan’s effort to turn it into an “unsinkable aircraft carrier” — signals that Japan does not intend to passively wait while China begins its struggle for state hegemony through the use of hard power, which would primarily affect neighboring states.

What if any preparations have you seen Iran make... ahead of the war? Can you discuss It’s missile capabilities? Any intelligence capabilities? Any surprises it might happen in store? When the 12-day war ended, I estimated that Iran would need about six months to recover, including its nuclear program. Contrary to popular belief, Iran did not lose its entire long-range or medium-range air defense network; while some launchers were damaged, the primary targets of the Israeli strikes were the radar systems. Once the radars were neutralized, Iran successfully hid the bulk of its remaining batteries, leaving much of its arsenal intact. In contrast, short-range systems like the Tor-M1 and domestic variants were heavily engaged against cruise missiles, often being lost or damaged only after their ammunition was completely exhausted. Since then, Iran has worked to rebuild its destroyed radar network and, above all, to implement a genuine counterintelligence doctrine. The Mossad operations against Iranian radars and air defense systems have shaped new perimeter defense and counterintelligence doctrines not only in Iran but in other countries as well. If we look at the quantity of weapons and the organization of armed groups during Iran’s most recent protests, I would say the problem of foreign intelligence operations inside the country remains severe. This seriously threatens much of Iran’s capabilities, and I foresee a wave of sabotage operations as a new war draws closer. Iran has begun receiving collaboration from China across multiple areas,from satellites to internal counterintelligence, but it may still take some time for this to produce tangible results. During the last years, the Mossad relied heavily on cell phones, using SMS for recruitment and accessing device GPS for target location. Iran has since focused intensely on preventing any repetition of this, and on this specific issue, the Chinese appear to have provided support. Although foreign intelligence services have operated extensively inside Iran, the scale of any armed opposition groups is negligible compared to the Iranian armed forces, which could still draw on allied paramilitaries and militias in neighboring countries, including the Houthis. Iran has become a missile power with a stockpile far larger than Western estimates suggest. As early as 1998, Iran was already producing missiles with ranges exceeding 1,000 km, and it has continued doing so ever since, developing 12 to 15 different models in that range - meaning all are capable of reaching Israel. That is nearly 30 years of continuous missile production, resulting in a stockpile of several thousands. Another area where Iran has emerged as a global power is drones, including underwater ones. Iran’s UUVs have evolved rapidly into mass-produced models with integrated AI, and I believe they hold some major surprises in reserve. A key point today is that the AN/TPY-2 radars, which played a critical role in tracking Iranian missiles, would be among the first targets to be engaged. These high-powered X-band radars are the backbone of regional missile defense, providing essential data to THAAD and Patriot batteries. However, because they are large, stationary, and emit high-energy signals, they are highly vulnerable to a first-strike or saturation attack, which would effectively 'blind' the entire defensive network. Obviously, a defense budget of nearly one trillion dollars cannot be compared to Iran’s, but the real question is whether the cost and effort are worth the potential casualties. Even without Israel, the Americans maintain an immense advantage in aerial operations over Iran; however, as I have stated before, this superiority does not translate to the maritime theater.show more

🇫🇷 The newest frigate of the French Navy Amiral... Ronarc’h (D660), as well as the first ship in its class FDI (Defense and Intervention Frigates) has arrived at its home port Brest, joining the ranks of the Naval Forces. This ship, built at the shipyard of the French company Naval Group, is the first of five planned to be delivered to the French Navy, which will strengthen their surface fleet in accordance with the new plans of the French Army to increase defense spending. With a length of 122 meters and a displacement of 4500 tons, the frigate can reach a maximum speed of 27 knots (~50 km\/h) and maintain autonomy for 45 days, making it ideal for long voyages to crisis zones as well as for escorting carrier strike groups. The frigate is also equipped with state-of-the-art weapons and equipment: its arsenal includes Aster surface-to-air missiles, Exocet MM40 Block 3c anti-ship missiles, as well as MU 90 torpedoes and a 76-mm OTO Melara artillery system. Additionally, the ship can accommodate a helicopter and unmanned aerial vehicles, providing multifunctionality from anti-submarine warfare to supporting special forces operations. The frigate is expected to be officially commissioned in 2026, and another four ships of the same class for the French fleet and three for Greece will be delivered by 2030.

Iran’s Post-War Air Defense: Changes in System Integration and... Deployment Tactics The 12-Day War, marked by Israeli air superiority, prompted accelerated reforms in mobility, autonomy, and hybrid integration in Iranian air defenses, particularly in their long-range battery, the Bavar-373. 1. Hardware Changes - Miniaturization and Autonomy (TELAR): The Babar-373-II now integrates AESA radars into each launcher, eliminating cables and vulnerable central radars, enabling independent operations. The range is 300-400 km for large targets and about 85-150 km for stealth fighters. - New Sayyad-4B+ Missiles: Featuring dual seekers (active radar and IR), extended range (300-400 km), and a focus on counter-stealth, Iran believes these new missiles can overcome jamming and past failures against drones heavy drones. - Integration of the Arman System: This is Iran's equivalent to AEGIS, covering medium-range defense (up to 120 km) in self-sufficient vehicles. Investments improved setup agility to just 3 minutes; moreover, if links fail due to satellite disruptions like last year, both the Bavar-373-II and the 15th Khordad can continue operating autonomously. This was a major issue for Iran that caused blackouts in their air defenses. - Surveillance Drones as "Flying Radars": Models like the Mohajer-10 and Karrar conduct patrols and transmit data via satellites (BeiDou), allowing passive detection and keeping radars off until engagement. 2. Tactical Changes - Radar Ambush (Passive Tracking): The implementation of modern sensors was another shift. Now, optical/IRST sensors and drones detect targets; radars activate only for seconds to lock on, reducing exposure to counter-attacks. - Geographic Dispersion: This autonomy allows units to spread across 10-15 km² in tunnels and civilian sheds, emerging only after drone alerts and integrating with smaller systems for layers resistant to saturation. It seems Iran is attempting an interesting tactic that could work if cyber elements don't cause issues. - Radical "Shoot-and-Scoot" Mobility: I've never seen this tactic with long-range air systems before, but Iran claims repositioning in under 4 minutes, with logistics for remote reloads, transforming this system tactically like MLRS or artillery. 3. Post-War Comparative (2025 vs. 2026) Comparing configurations before and after the war, in 2025 connections relied on physical cables and centralized infrastructure, while in 2026 it adopts wireless datalinks with independent launchers, seemingly built with Chinese assistance. Dependency evolved from a giant, vulnerable search radar to a hybrid sensor network incorporating drones, IRST systems, and satellites. Reaction time, which previously took a long time to move the entire battery, is now reduced to under 4 minutes for the first vehicle to depart. Finally, the target focus shifted from conventional missiles and aircraft to advanced threats, such as counter-stealth, counter-drones, and, according to them, even hypersonic missiles. 4. Persistent Fragilities - Slow Reload Logistics: Missile reloading takes 30-60 minutes with cranes, exposing them to orbital surveillance. However, all heavy batteries are like this. - Datalink Vulnerability: Although Iran has strong link protection technology as seen in drone, it has limits against interference, and the number of American assets dedicated to this indicates that jamming or hacking loads won't be small. - Massive Thermal Signature: Heat from the chassis detectable by LEO satellites is another vulnerability that would also nullify camouflage, but it's the same with every system. - Radar Horizon vs. Cruise Missiles: The truck-embedded radar has a short tracking radius of 35-45 km, with a brief reaction against low-altitude or terrain-masking threats, which in certain situations could favor Tomahawks.show more

We continue to analyze the technical details of the... war with Iran, and we would like to note the Iranian novelty - subsonic barraging anti-aircraft missiles Missile 358, equipped with compact turbojet engines. To some extent unexpectedly, they showed good effectiveness against Israeli reconnaissance and strike UAVs Hermes-900. The key role is played by the thermal homing head: it is able to reliably detect and track a wide range of heat-contrasting targets, including UAVs with various flight profiles. An additional advantage is the command and telemetry channel, which ensures data transmission and allows for radio correction of the trajectory. This is especially important in situations when the target attempts to disrupt the capture with infrared decoys or other means of counteraction. According to the stated parameters, the range of application of Missile 358 reaches about 100 km. At the same time, the maximum interception altitude is about 8.5 km, and the speed is up to 700 km/h, which expands the capabilities of the complex in covering objects and intercepting medium-altitude UAVs. Of course, this is a niche tool, and compared to solid-fuel missiles, the turbojet engine provides exponentially higher flight energy. This allows to dramatically increase the range at low speed, and the mass of the main units of the ammunition, its warhead and control system. On the other hand, this is a solution of necessity, because classic anti-aircraft missiles perfectly hit such high-altitude and slow-moving targets. But for such ammunition, no radar, complex and expensive beam installations are required, which greatly improves its survivability under constant air strikes. And in its niche of targets, there are enough of them, as such UAVs of Israel and the USA are the basis of UCAV, and are constantly over the territory of Iran. So with the 358th ammunition, you can score quite a lot of frags, and significantly complicate air strikes on Iran for the Epstein coalition. Russian Engineer -show more

Chinese aircrafts are competitive, but time will tell about... reliability. Since we've been discussing Chinese aviation lately, I want to show how Chinese aircraft are becoming increasingly competitive in a market traditionally dominated by the West and Russia. The J-35 and KF-21 are expected to enter the market only by the end of 2026 or early 2027. However, I have estimated their costs. I dare say that, with the current level of automation in the Chinese defense industry, the prices of these aircraft are likely to decrease even further. The Gripen and Su-35 are competitive, but what attracts most to the Su-35 is the R-37M missile, which has a range of up to 400 km and its radar irbis-E Reaching also 400km. It operationally both reaches 350 km would be already significant advantage without analogous. Western aviation remains expensive, and in my view, it will only become more competitive with the arrival of the AIM-260 missile, which has a range of over 300 km. Additionally, maintenance costs are very high, with the Gripen again standing out in that aspect as a cost-effective option for acquisition and maintenance. Another advantage are the interoperability on multiple terrains. Values are based on recent deals and local estimates. Costs can vary depending on the package. - J-10C: Cost: 40-50M. Radar: AESA KLJ-7A (~150-170 km). Missiles: PL-15 (~200-250 km). Maintenance cost per flight hour: ~$8,000-$9,000. - J-35 (FC-31): Cost: 70-85M. Radar: AESA (~200+ km). Missiles: PL-15 (~200-250 km); PL-21 (>300 km). Maintenance cost per flight hour: $10,000-$15,000. - Rafale: Cost: 80-120M. Radar: RBE2-AA AESA (~200 km). Missiles: Meteor (>150 km). Maintenance cost per flight hour: ~$16,000-$22,000. - Su-30: Cost: 50-86M. Radar: Bars PESA (~150-200 km). Missiles: R-37 (~300 km).

🧐🇦🇪🇫🇷 The Most Advanced Mirage Ever Built Wasn't French... When people think of the Mirage 2000, they think of France. But the most powerful and sophisticated version of this legendary fighter was built for the United Arab Emirates. Meet the Mirage 2000-9. Far more than a simple upgrade, the Mirage 2000-9 incorporated technologies developed for the Rafale, transforming the iconic fighter into one of the most capable 4th generation combat aircraft ever produced. Powered by the M53-P2 engine and equipped with the advanced RDY-2 multimode radar, the aircraft can simultaneously track multiple targets while conducting air to air and air to ground missions. Its arsenal is formidable: • MICA EM active radar guided air to air missiles • MICA IR infrared guided air to air missiles • Magic II short range air to air missiles • Black Shaheen long range cruise missiles • Laser guided bombs • Precision guided munitions • Conventional bombs • Air to surface missiles • Anti ship weapons • 30mm DEFA cannons The Mirage 2000-9 is also equipped with an advanced electronic warfare and self protection suite, allowing it to detect, jam, and evade enemy threats while operating deep inside contested airspace. With a combat radius stretching hundreds of kilometers and the ability to strike targets with precision, the aircraft became one of the most capable fighters in the Middle East. For years, it quietly stood as one of the region's most powerful air combat platforms, proof that even a design born in the 1970s could evolve into a world-class fighter. The Mirage 2000-9 wasn't just the final Mirage. It was the ultimate Mirage.show more

‼️🇺🇸Trump Class Battleship | United States Navy 🔥 President... Donald J. Trump has officially announced plans for a new American battleship class for the United States Navy, known as the Trump Class. The announcement was made on December 22, 2025, at Mar a Lago in Florida, alongside senior US Navy leadership and defense officials. The lead ship of the class has been named USS Defiant According to initial plans, the vessel is expected to displace between 30,000 and 40,000 tons, making it significantly larger than modern US destroyers and cruisers currently in service. The Trump Class is envisioned as the largest US surface combatant designed since World War II. Its primary roles will include long range strike operations, layered air and missile defense, and serving as a central command platform for naval task forces. The program is expected to incorporate advanced combat technologies, including hypersonic missiles, directed energy weapons such as lasers, and extensive cruise missile launch capabilities. There is also discussion of potential future integration of strategic level capabilities. While the program has been publicly announced, detailed technical specifications, final funding decisions, and construction timelines remain under advanced planning and will require approval from the US Congress.show more

#PLA #China #Japan #Korea #Guam #India #Hypersonic The Chinese... 6th generation fighter is a high-quality reverse engineering of the American 6th generation fighter project from Lockheed Martin as part of the NGAD (Next-Generation Air Dominance) program. The Chinese Air Force has begun flight tests of a 6th-generation stealth fighter designed using a "flying wing"/"tailless" configuration without the usual vertical and horizontal all-moving tail fins typical of 4th and 5th generation aircraft. The machine is stabilized in flight thanks to an advanced computerized fly-by-wire control system with multiple backup systems, which controls the wing mechanization on the trailing edge. The design has a huge resemblance to that of the Lockheed project under the NGAD program. It is worth noting that the visible length of the glider can vary from 22.5 to 25 - 27 m, while the wingspan reaches an incredible 18 - 19 m. Obviously, the normal takeoff weight of such a machine can reach 33 - 37 tons, the maximum - 43 - 47 tons. The payload in the internal weapons compartments is up to 10 - 12 tons. The estimated volume of the fuel system can reach 17-18 tons, and the combat radius of action up to 2500-2700 km. The effective reflective surface of this machine can vary from 0.05 to 0.15 sq. m The configuration of the onboard radar of the Chinese 5th generation fighter is almost identical to that of the Russian Su-57. On the side forming the nose of the fuselage, one can pay attention to 2 X-band side-looking AESA modules, similar to the N036B-1-01L and N036B-1-01B modules of the Belka onboard radar system. These canvases provide radar reconnaissance in SAR mode at distances of up to 150-200 km, as well as the ability to detect air targets in the lateral and rear hemisphere Evgeniy Damantsevshow more

RC-135 Deployments Signal Imminent Attack: Myths and Realities of... Iran's Military Power The RC-135 is a family of large reconnaissance aircraft operated by the ISAF. These jets are designed for ISR missions, providing near real-time data to military commanders and national leaders. The primary variant focuses on detecting, identifying, and geolocating electromagnetic signals, such as communications, radar emissions, and electronic warfare activities. Based on past experience, the early arrival of these aircraft often signals that an attack may be very close. But what about Iran, what capabilities does it actually have? There are many myths surrounding Iran's military power. Here are some key points: 1. Israel did not overfly Iran during the 12-day war This is implausible. Most part of the munitions used included bombs like the GBU-28 and GBU-31, both with ranges under 25 km, which suggests they could only have been dropped from inside Iranian territory. 2. Iranian missiles have poor accuracy In 2025, several Iranian missiles were launched against targets in Erbil, Iraq, with excellent precision. During the 12-day war, Iran struck the Weizmann Institute and the Haifa refinery with high accuracy, as well as some Israeli launchers, all in an environment of heavy jamming. The truth is that Iranian missile accuracy depends on the model. Iran has missiles in its arsenal that are more than 15 years old, but there is no evidence that the precision of its modern anti-ship missiles is deficient. 3. Iranian air defenses are of very poor quality This cannot be stated with absolute certainty because they were never fully tested. Israel's ground sabotage operations were highly effective, successfully disabling radars and most short-range air defense systems. Iran does not keep its long- and medium-range air defenses permanently deployed, and consequently none of them were destroyed during the 12 days of war. 4. Iran has no radars capable of detecting stealth aircraft In 2024, Iranian radars locked onto Israeli F-35s while they were still over Iraqi territory. In 2025, Iranian-supplied radars integrated into missile batteries in Yemen also locked onto and fired at U.S. F-35s on multiple occasions, nearly downing one. 5. The high technology of U.S. ships and aircraft will paralyze Iranian weapons This would only happen if the Iranians turned their systems off, as reportedly occurred in the Venezuela case. So far, Iranian equipment has proven extremely resistant to interference. Shahed drones continue to operate accurately, and after years of Western efforts, they have not been successfully jammed. This will pose a major challenge for the Americans. 6. The U.S. Carrier Strike Group will easily crush the Iranian navy They would destroy Iran's large ships in minutes, but they would face enormous difficulty against mini-submarines, USVs, UAVs, UUVs, and fast attack craft equipped with missiles. In additional, the U.S. drones would not have complete freedom for target acquisition and would have to rely on LEO/ISR sats. Iran possesses drones like the Karrar, a jet-powered interceptor equipped with air-to-air missiles that can operate at 15,000 meters to deny U.S. drones freedom of action. The Israelis lost an unknown number of drones during the 12-day war, though losses were reported. Summary Does Iran have any advantage? At sea, against the current Carrier Strike Group and considering all of Iran's resources, I would say Iran holds an advantage, evidenced by factors such as missile range, number of containers, tubes, VLS cells, drones, mines, submarines, anti-ship missiles, and other assets. However, once the focus shifts from the sea to the air, the American advantage is overwhelming, both in satellite intelligence and in combat aviation. And this is the type of war the Americans know best.show more
