Likely Russia has all the blueprints that are critical. An-124 is not central to Russian transport fleet. Russia can live without it.
Your argument about nuclear missiles is false. Russia can make electronics for all in-service missiles.

Just as the case is with Ukraine, Russia has very large amount of equipment in storage. Parts can usually be obtained from there for legacy platforms.

Russia will continue to push for new equipment. The industrial capacity will be increased.

If you're so smart, why haven't designing missiles for the Indian army? How do you know that you can do in Russia? In Voronezh collect the last batch of An-140, because they ran out of parts.

I am always surprised by the specialists on the forums (not just the DFI, but our too) that the rifle in his hands is not holding. but I think that they are great experts.

There is a reason for your predicament. The soldier is not the brain. There are analysts and planners who tell the soldier what to do.

The things seem to move,since the attacks on Charlie Hebdo and other threats,there will be an update of the " National Security Strategy" (in June),where they will give more means to the armies and stop the cuts on personels. (for exemple : More helicopters,more means for the intelligence services,special forces etc..).
The Louvois system (which was a total mistake) will be replaced by a system called "Source solde". (it was announced today.=)
-------------
There will never be an "european army",some are dreaming.
But..I want to have a clarity on this..if you can give me.
The provision, machines and like for internal operations...meaning...counter terrorism operations to protect own citizens from internal conflicts are different from the machines thats used to fight war between nations like France Vs Russia(On part of NATO).
So.. May be France will have a National Security Strategy in place focusing on home grown terror and CT operations from within..but how much is this feasible enough to fight an externa war?

The update of "La loi de programmation militaire",will also take in count the situation in E Europe,but primarily in Africa,where the threats are increasing.... (It was announced that we will increase the number of troops in the Sahel.)

My education is more than you. I hope that is sufficient for you.

Ок. And now sduysya (I can't find the English equivalent of the word) with pride and say: your education allows you to talk about the technique?

If you are indeed an engineer, as you claim, then you must be a student of science. A student of science has one quality. He questions everything. He refuses to accept assertions at face value. Your posts, so far, indicate quite the opposite.

Berlin Is Disappointed with Poroshenko's Presidency

When Petro Poroshenko became the president of Ukraine, German politicians pinned their hopes on him. However, after one year of his governance, Berlin does not hide its disappointment with Poroshenko's performance.

The German government is disappointed in Petro Poroshenko's presidency that failed to stabilize the situation in Ukraine, German TV-channel ARD reports.

Berlin had high hopes for Poroshenko, when he became the president of Ukraine. Poroshenko promised to resolve the conflict in the eastern part of the country using peaceful measures. However, he failed to keep his promises: almost a year later, there is a full-blown war going on in Donbas.

"Now, ten months later, Berlin is strongly disappointed," the German channel reports.

In addition, during the peace talks in Minsk, Poroshenko did not inform his Western allies about the weakness of his army. Perhaps, he was not aware about the real situation himself, but that also leaves a bad impression on the Ukrainian president, ARD said. The weakness of the Ukrainian army, in particular, came as a big surprise to many in the West.

"We are dealing with the army that is decaying and can no longer fight," said Wolfgang Ischinger, the Chairman of the Munich security conference.

Another factor that disappointed Germany is Ukraine's volunteer battalions, funded by the country's oligarchs. These volunteers are notorious for their brutality. They do not comply with Ukraine's law or international agreements, they are simply out of control, ARD said.

The military conflict in eastern Ukraine only served to strengthen the positions of Ukrainian oligarchs and failed to resolve any problems that Ukraine had prior to Poroshenko's presidency, a representative of the German Green Party said.

Commentary:
  • While dissatisfaction with Poroshenko might be better late than never, why would one expect a chocolate seller to perform any better than this in a military conflict?
  • Why one earth was Germany expecting the chocolate seller to "inform" his western allies about his military? Were the western allies interested in some kind of military campaign against those that did not vote for the Kiev regime? This is a reflexive culpability.
  • Why is there any concern about the private armed bandits today? Why did the west ignore what Russia said one year ago? Why this concern now? Is the west trying to wash its sins off?
