Civil war in Ukraine

[Flash12]

Crimea, like Chechnya, is just a showcase. In the Soviet Union, foreigners were allowed to travel to big cities for this very reason.

Any comparison of comparable cities in Russia and Ukraine will not be in favor of Ukraine.

There is a saying that you know very well: "There is always a black sheep in the family."

Are 1.5 million internal migrants sheep? Thank you for confirming my hatred.

You saw the video. And so everywhere.

I don't understand what is the achievement in this picture?

I have seen this video before. Custom stories. Why does Russia constantly prove to us that it is better? provide Qatar. There is also oil and gas.

The trolleybus fleet near Ukrainian cities is being updated. These are Ukrainian-made trolleybuses.

Qatar is the world's largest oil and gas exporter. Population 2,638,657. More questions?

We even have new buses in small towns.

That's what I'm saying. Compare yourself with them

About 22.6% of the Russian population does not have access to centralized sewerage.

Biden said, no troops to Ukraine, rumors coming in 3000 troops a ready to be deployed.
West escalating tensions more. If they did, Russians will attack.

They are deploying to NATO countries though not Ukraine.

Ok, about buses:

Ukraine come home.


Those that want to get mesmerized by their city projects here are image collages of what they are doing.

That's what I'm saying. Compare yourself with them

What are you saying? Compare what is comparable. The income of the largest gas exporter is divided not by 150 million inhabitants, but by 2.5 million.

https://www.rbc.ru/economics/02/04/2019/5ca1d7949a79475d1c2f6e4a

In Ukraine, 40% of housing does not have access to centralized sewerage. 23.6% in cities and 72% in villages. 40% of the population without sewerage, this is almost twice as much as in Russia 21% in 2019.

You again compare Russia and Ukraine. I repeat: take care of yourself. We can manage without the help of Russia.
Phantom pain?

I am comparing "Russian" and "Ukrainian with US/European help" world. About which you said, where the Russian world comes, people live poorly there. Compared to the Ukrainian world, where one must assume people live in prosperity.
By the way, when the USSR collapsed, Ukraine, in comparison with Russia, could be said to live better. I show the results after 30 years of the Russian and Ukrainian world.

Therefore, we had two Maidans to remove thieving officials.
We live well. Putin only interferes.

Yes, and always the Maidan, by a strange coincidence, happened because of the so-called pro-Russian thieves. For some reason, because of the pro-American thieves, Maidans do not happen.

 

[Shashank Nayak]

Russian National Guard.. Rosgvardia troops which will play a crucial role, in pacifying captured areas are moving.. So, invasion coming.. or is it a bluff..?

 

[blackjack]

Its like Russia is portraying itself as a growing advanced civilization. Its like Ukraine should and wants to be a part of it which is why they beg for invasion.

Advanced Research Foundation Cyclocar (evtol.news)

Cyclocar
Advanced Research Foundation
Moscow, Russia
www.fpi.gov.ru

Based in Russia, the Advanced Research Foundation founded in 2012, is a research and development organization for Russia to modernize the military and state security organizations with innovative high-tech technologies and products and to also bring innovative products for civilian use. The Cyclocar Project Team Leader is Yan Chibisov.

In 2017, the Foundation for Advanced Study organized an open competition "Free Takeoff", to develop the best vertical takeoff or ultra-short takeoff and landing aircraft for Urban Air Mobility (UAM). In May 2017, Flash-M LLC was announced as the winner. The winning team proposed using cyclical propellers for their vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft and this was the design base which Advanced Research Foundation's used for the Cyclocar.

The Cyclocar is an autonomous six passenger hybrid-electric VTOL aircraft using cyclical propellers for VTOL and forward flight. Passengers can enter and exit on either side of the aircraft and from the rear of the aircraft. The maximum speed of the Cyclocar is estimated at 250 km/h (155 mph), with a range of 500 km (311 miles), has no wings and has a four fixed-wheeled landing gear arrangement.

Some of the main advantages for this design is very fast control of thrust vectors through 360 degrees for excellent maneuverability in the air, has a low noise level and is a very compact vehicle. The aircraft will have a hybrid-electric power plant to create the electricity for the electric motors turning the cyclical propellers providing the power for VTOL flight, high speed flight and endurance for the aircraft. There is also safety shielding so passengers and ground crew are protected from the turning propellers.

The Advanced Research Foundation says the vehicle can be equipped with a gasoline piston engine or a more powerful turbine engine its power source. A unique feature of the aircraft is its ability to land on an inclined surface of up to 30 degrees and to dock to vertical surfaces. The aircraft can also be used for air cargo service.

The Cyclocar is expected to be used for both military and civilian use, including Urban Air Mobility, Search & Rescue, police work, fire fighting, tourism, surveying, transportation to the battle field and more. Its sister air cargo drone, the Cyclodron, is planned to be used in agriculture, monitoring the air, medicine and organ transportation, commercial cargo services and more.

The aircraft has a safe feature of being able to continue to fly if two of the four rotors stop working and the aircraft will also be equipped with a whole aircraft parachute.

In 2020, a 60 kg (132 lb) subscale prototype made its first flight validating its flight control systems, including the ability to fly the aircraft in VTOL flight and forward flight modes. The first full-size Cyclocar prototype is scheduled to fly in 2022 and production aircraft are expected to be manufactured by 2024.

Specifications:

• Aircraft type: Hybrid-electric VTOL aircraft
• Piloting: Autonomous
• Capacity: 6 passengers
• Maximum speed: 250 km/h (155 mph)
• Range: 500 km (311 miles)
• Maximum payload: 600 kg (1,323 lb)
• Cyclical propellers: 4 cyclical propellers
• Electric Motors: Possibly 4 electric motors or more
• Power source: Hybrid-electric
• Fuselage: Carbon fiber composite
• Windows: Canopy over passenger seating
• Landing gear: Fixed quad-wheeled landing gear
• Safety Features: Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP), provides safety through redundancy for its passengers and/or cargo. DEP means having multiple propellers and motors on the aircraft so if one or more motors or propellers fail, the other working motors and propellers can safely land the aircraft. Two of the cyclical propellers can stop working the aircraft can continue to fly and land safely. The aircraft will also have a whole aircraft parachute system.
