The head of the Russian Ministry of Defense again inspected the plan for implementing state defense orders at Russian military enterprises. During a visit to the State Design Bureau "Raduga" enterprise, a new Russian cruise missile "Izdeliye-720" was noticed; there is still no technical data on it. Presumably the Izdeliye-720 missile was created on the basis of the Kh-69 missile; it has the same square body, but a different configuration of the air intake and seeker of the missile. The Izdeliye-720 missile lacks the electro-optical guidance terminal found on the Kh-69 missile and instead has a fairing similar to that of the Kh-35 missile. It is possible that the Izdeliye-720 missile is equipped with a radar used by the missile's guidance system. The missile's flight range is estimated to be from 300 to 500 kilometers, and its weight is about 450 kg. During a visit to the plant, the minister was shown the Russian X-58 anti-radar missile, which has a flight range of 250 kilometers, after which the minister said that the missile’s flight range should be increased to 300 kilometers.

KTRV General Director Boris Obnosov reported that a new product with a range of 310 kilometers has already been tested. “We have reduced the cost of the rocket and doubled the power of the product,” he added.

“The warhead of this missile is now 800 kilograms. It was 450, now it’s 800,” reported Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Aerospace Forces for Armaments, Colonel General Yuri Grekhov.
“We must now make sure that there are sufficient quantities of such missiles,” Sergei Shoigu emphasized.

that missile warhead is interesting.

The only Russian missile i know that can pack such amount is Kh-22. Which by default have 1 Tonne. But 450 Kg to 800 Kg is strange. Unless he's talking about Kh-32 actually having reduced warhead and then they decided to fit back old Kh-22 warhead or design and fit a new 800 Kg.

Units of the Russian National Guard began to use the latest complex for detecting and suppressing UAVs “Byzhigatel”. At the moment, there is no technical information on the Russian Vyzhigatel complex, designed to suppress drones, even the manufacturer is unknown. The complex is reported to be effective.

Footage of the operation of the new Russian aircraft landing radar system, the RSP-28ME complex, one might say this is a unique and only video of the complex’s operation. The RSP-28ME complex is designed to organize air traffic control of aircraft in the near zone of operational airfields, and control over the aircraft's pre-landing maneuvering and maintaining course lines and glide path on the landing trajectory. The RSP-28ME complex has been supplied to the troops since 2021 and is serviced by three operators. The RSP-28ME Complex includes: a DRL-27SE dispatch radar module, a PRL-27SE or PRL-27SM landing radar module, an automatic direction finder, an RSP-28ME control module and a diesel power plant. The RSP-28ME complex is equipped with operational airfields of the Russian state aviation; it replaced the RSP-10MN complexes

Footage of tests of the home-made Russian robotic platform “BRATISHKA”, created by Kazan designers. Initially, the Bratishka unmanned tracked vehicle was developed for the emergency evacuation of wounded soldiers during battle, but now its functions are being expanded. As can be seen in the video, the robotic platform has a low height and does an excellent job of evacuating soldiers. A smoke screen installation system has already been developed for the BRATISHKA robot; modules for installing anti-tank systems, electronic warfare systems, reconnaissance and other systems are being created. The possibility of launching a UAV from a robot is planned; a turret with automatic guidance for a machine gun is currently being designed. The robot body is solid-bearing and can be made of armored steel. The robot is controlled using a VR helmet, at a range of up to 2 kilometers, with a communication repeater the control range is more than 10 km. Most of the robot's components are made in China; work is underway to replace it with Russian analogues. The robot weighs 200 kg when equipped, is equipped with two engines and reaches a speed of up to 15 km/h, with a power reserve of up to 16 hours. Drive power from 7 to 10 kW

The Russian training aircraft UTS-800 made its first flight, the footage was published by the Ural Civil Aviation Plant. The aircraft is intended for training pilots of fighter and bomber aircraft. The UTS-800 is equipped with modern equipment, including a digital flight control system and a multifunctional display. Earlier, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced a competition designed to find a replacement for the foreign fleet of training aircraft; Yak-152 and UTS-800 aircraft took part in it. The aircraft is equipped with modern systems and is not inferior to foreign analogues in terms of payload, thrust-to-weight ratio and maneuverability. The aircraft's components are made in Russia, and the airframe itself is made of domestic composite materials. Currently, the UTS-800 is equipped with a General Electric H80 engine. It is planned that the aircraft will receive a Russian VK-800SM turboprop engine. The cost of a flight hour for a UTS-800 aircraft is about 25 thousand rubles or 285 dollars. The aircraft's cruising speed is 360 km/h, flight altitude is up to 8000 meters, maximum take-off weight is 2150 kg.

A hybrid of the Russian T-80B tank and the Russian RBU-6000 bomb launcher. The RBU-6000 ship-borne rocket launcher, which was installed on the MT-LB transporter, was also installed on the Russian T-80B tank. Reportedly, one of the Marine Corps units was involved in converting the T-80B tank into a homemade MLRS with a caliber of 213 mm. Many people wondered why they were doing this; apparently, a large number of RGB-60 or 90R bombs had accumulated in the military warehouses of the Russian army; the firing range of such an installation is about 5500 meters.

Nasty looking modification. Don't know the precision of that thing but RBU-6000 have probably a devastating effect with more than 20kg of explosive. Would be interesting how they adapted the proximity fuse to use it on ground targets ?
