Modern radars of AESA architecture require very large number of ICs for signal amplification, filtering, AC/DC conversion, digital processing. Then there's precision guided munition, cruise missiles, anti-air missiles, etc with similar requirements. I've seen Russian AESA radar designs with American made Altera/Xilinx FPGA chips and Texas Instrument chips among others. This is the sort of technology that not even China is capable of replacing at the moment, at least not on the state-of-the-art level.

This is truly a bizarre time in history. Seeing photos of Russians designing their Su-57 on Dell work station using CATIA blew my mind. Wouldn't be surprised if it were similar in China. American chips in Russian stuff. Chinese chips in US stuff (most likely).

Bayraktar TB-2 doesn't have enough firepower to cause 70 charred bodies. The only scenario I can think of is MAM-L thermobaric variant getting used against soldiers in open. Otherwise, it can take out just 4 APCs with 10 soldiers inside each. HEAT warheads have low post-penetration lethality. Most of the occupants would survive and the dead would not be charred. A single Bayraktar TB-2 can't cause more than 10-15 deaths by striking a Russian armored column.

I spent a few days being silent on social media to avoid getting into useless discussions. Ukraine is doing better than most have thought and I despise Russian aggression. But Ukrainian authorities are lying A LOT. They are not winning at all and their loses are likely the several times of Russians. Otherwise Russians wouldn't be at their capital in 4 days. They are losing territory faster than Saddam's Iraq in 2003.

I will continue to be generally silent. Even though I have less than 1000 followers I may demoralize a Ukrainian by chance. If these stories motivate them, good for them. But these stories are not real nonetheless.

I doubt that was the result of thermobaric weapons. The collateral damage would have been far worse. I think that was a well aimed artillery strike. Do Ukrainians have guided artillery rounds?
