Russian racing parachute system PTK-10SK aircraft on the example of the Su-30SM Air Force of the Republic of Belarus. The main supplier of parachutes for Russia, as well as for export to more than 30 countries of the world, is OJSC Solnechnogorsk Mechanical Plant. The PTK-10SK brake landing parachute system produced by the plant is installed on Russian SU-27 and SU-30 aircraft. Parachute landing systems reduce the length after the landing run of the aircraft by 1.5-2 times. The PTK-10SK parachute system has a mass of 23 kilograms and is used at an aircraft speed of no more than 300 km/h. As it turned out, the resource of braking parachutes is not large, about 50 applications. Parachute canopy area. 25 m2. The service life of the parachute is 15 years.

Two Tu-160M strategic missile carriers have been handed over to Russia for flight tests. We are talking about the first aircraft mass-produced under the Tu-160M reproduction program, and the Tu-160 combat aircraft, which underwent a deep modernization. The weapons bays of the new Tu-160Ms house two drum launchers for 12 cruise missiles. In addition to the already existing Kh-101 missile and its nuclear counterpart Kh-102, the Tu-160M arsenal will include several types of medium and long-range missiles that are under development. The updated missile carriers are superior to their predecessors and the production of these combat aircraft will be increased. The Tu-160 is capable of overcoming 12 thousand kilometers without refueling, while developing a maximum speed of 2200 km/h.

The Russian frigate of project 22350 "Admiral Gorshkov" armed with hypersonic missiles "Zirkon" is sent on a long voyage. The frigate will go on a trip across the Atlantic and Indian oceans, as well as the Mediterranean Sea. The Zircon hypersonic missile was developed by NPO Mashinostroyeniya. Its exact characteristics are not disclosed, however, during tests in November 2020, the Zircon rocket accelerated to 9.5 thousand km / h. The missile is capable of hitting sea and ground targets at a distance of 1,000 to 1,500 km. The weight of the rocket warhead is 300-400 kg. At the moment, apart from the S-500 air defense system, there are no air defense systems capable of intercepting hypersonic missiles. As reported, during the campaign, the crew of the ship will work out the use of Zircon hypersonic missiles.

The Russian Defense Ministry has published a promo for the upgraded A-50U airborne early warning and control aircraft. The A-50U aircraft was developed in 2011 on the basis of the A-50 aircraft. Most of the destroyed Ukrainian fighters were found using A-50U aircraft. The A-50U aircraft differs from previous modifications by a new radio-technical complex with improved parameters. The aircraft has an airborne defense complex, which includes active and passive radio countermeasures, as well as infrared jamming systems. The aircraft had a reduced mass of equipment, due to this, the fuel supply was increased. The price of the aircraft is 330 million dollars. Russia currently has 7 aircraft in service.

Russia as manufactured the first Poseidon nuclear super torpedo ammunition for the Belgorod special-purpose nuclear submarine. As part of the tests, the crew of the Belgorod nuclear submarine of project 09852 conducted a series of tests of the Poseidon in order to check the launch system and the behavior of the submarine after launch at various depths. The nuclear power plant of the torpedoes was also tested. The Poseidon is the largest and heaviest torpedo in the world and is often used as an unmanned underwater system. With a diameter of around 2 meters and a length of 24 meters, it can dive to a depth of 1000 meters. The torpedo is equipped with a warhead with a capacity of up to 100 megatons, an explosion of such power can cause a tsunami up to 500 meters high. Some consider these torpedoes to be doomsday weapons.

The US Coast Guard spotted a Russian Project 864 spy ship near the Hawaiian Islands. The ship was seen refueling from a supply tanker. The appearance of this ship in the United States is explained by the presence in the region of the Pacific missile range Barking Sands, which is used to test Standard Missile 6 anti-missiles. Russian reconnaissance ships of Project 864 Meridian are capable of collecting "noise profiles" of surface and underwater objects, as well as conduct electronic intelligence. On board are the Profile-M, RotorS and Prokhlada radio reconnaissance systems, as well as sonar reconnaissance systems, radio communication systems and other equipment. The ship is armed with AK-306M 30-mm artillery system and Igla MANPADS. At the moment, Russia uses 7 ships of this type.
