‼️🇯🇵🇨🇳 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.

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

Russia is officially mass-producing the Volna Kupol Garant electronic... warfare system, delivering a total knockout to Western military tech and exposing the fatal flaws in Starlink. Instead of playing defense and messing with ground terminals, Russia is targeting the satellites directly in orbit. Packed into six mobile trailer units with twelve tracking antennas, the system locks high-power RF beams straight onto Starlink’s 14.0–14.5 GHz Ku-band uplink. By blasting all eight sub-channels simultaneously, it completely floods and blinds the satellite’s receivers. The result? Total blackout. Ground terminals lose connection instantly across entire frontlines. Western software patches can’t fix it because the satellite itself is blinded at the source, instantly freezing drone ops and artillery targeting. To make matters worse for Western strategy, Iran is now acquiring this tech to crush unauthorized Starlink networks inside its own borders. The myth of untouchable Western tech dominance is officially over.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). Maintenance cost per flight hour: ~$10,000-$12,000. - Su-35: Cost: 80-90M. Radar: Irbis-E PESA (~350-400 km). Missiles: R-37M (~300-400 km). Maintenance cost per flight hour: ~$12,000-15,000. - F-16C/D (Block 70): Cost: 80-120M. Radar: APG-83 SABR AESA (~135-160 km). Missiles: AIM-120D (~160-180 km). Maintenance cost per flight hour: ~$25,000-$44,000. - Eurofighter Typhoon: Cost: 110-117M. Radar: Captor-E AESA (>200 km). Missiles: Meteor (>150 km). Maintenance cost per flight hour: ~$30,000-$45,000. - Gripen E: Cost: 85-120M. Radar: Raven ES-05 AESA (~200-250 km). Missiles: Meteor (>150 km).

🇷🇺 Russia’s Starlink killers showcase new era of electronic... battlefield warfare Russia has ramped-up EW use to detect and jam Elon Musk’s Starlink terminals and satellites, Ukrainian media reports. 👉 Meet Russia’s key counter-Starlink systems: 🔸 Volna Kupol Garant Russia’s latest electronic warfare system reportedly uses a directed high-frequency radio beam to disrupt Starlink operations. Rather than damaging satellites orbiting roughly 500 kilometers above Earth, the system blinds them – cutting their ability to connect with ground terminals while they remain under attack. According to reports, Volna is a mobile system built around six trailers. Each carries a pair of steerable satellite dishes mounted on rotating platforms. A single battery is reportedly capable of denying Starlink coverage across an area of up to 20 sq km. Some analysts say the system was previously referenced under the designation Peresvet-M, although this has not been independently confirmed. Ukrainian sources claim Volna was first deployed during Russia's offensive in the Kharkov region in 2024. They also say its use has increased significantly in recent months. 🔸 Tobol The secretive Russian EW complex is reportedly used to disrupt signals from NATO-linked satellite networks, including GPS, Galileo, and Starlink. Reports claim that Tobol attacks satellite communications on both ends of the link – jamming downlinks from satellites to ground receivers and uplinks from Earth to orbit. Its power and range also allegedly allow it to create an electromagnetic "umbrella." 🔸 Kalinka The system is designed to hunt down satellite communications signals, including those transmitted by Starlink terminals at distances of up to 15 km. It can reportedly track and lock onto even Starshield – SpaceX’s hardened military variant of Starlink. Western media warns that while Tobol disrupts GPS signals on a broad scale, the Kalinka’s precision-targeting capabilities could pose a more direct threat to specific military operations. 🔸 Krasukha The Krasukha-S4 is designed to neutralize reconnaissance satellites, ground-based radar installations, and airborne surveillance systems. It does so by emitting powerful electronic jamming signals that disrupt key radar bands and other radio-frequency emissions. A standard Krasukha-S4 battery consists of two vehicles and has an operational range exceeding 300 kilometers. 🔸 Borshchevik The light mobile system is designed to detect and geolocate Starlink terminals within a 180-degree sector at ranges of up to 10 km, with a reported accuracy of five meters. Using direction-finding and biangulation algorithms, it can locate a target in less than three minutes at a single scanning position. The Borshchevik-2 airborne system hunts Starlink signals from the sky, with reported accuracy down to 0.4 m.show more

🧐🇦🇪🇫🇷 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

‼️🇺🇦🔥🇷🇺 After days of systematically degrading Russian air defenses... around Novorossiysk and Gelendzhik, Ukraine launched a massive combined strike on the strategically vital port of Novorossiysk overnight. The operation involved cruise missiles and several types of long-range kamikaze drones, striking multiple high-value facilities across the port complex. Among the targets hit were: ▪️ Oil terminal infrastructure; ▪️ The Russian naval base; ▪️ The grain export terminal; ▪️ The maritime transport terminal. The attack came after Ukrainian forces spent days methodically targeting Russian air-defense and electronic-warfare assets across the Novorossiysk-Gelendzhik area, apparently creating vulnerabilities for the larger strike that followed. With long- and medium-range surface-to-air missile systems apparently unavailable or insufficient in the immediate area, Russian forces spent much of the night attempting to engage incoming Ukrainian drones and missiles with shorter-range anti-aircraft systems and gunfire, without preventing strikes on several key facilities. The sequence illustrates an increasingly sophisticated Ukrainian approach to deep-strike operations: first pressure and degrade the defensive network, then exploit the resulting gaps with a larger combined missile-and-drone attack against strategically important military and economic infrastructure. Novorossiysk is particularly important to Moscow because it combines major energy-export infrastructure with one of the Russian Black Sea Fleet's principal bases. Successfully penetrating its defenses therefore puts pressure on both Russia's military presence in the Black Sea and the infrastructure supporting its economy.
