Russian military personnel have begun using ground-based wheeled drones to lay smoke screens. This is the first time an unmanned platform has been used to create a smoke screen. The use of drones in the military is gradually growing, despite the fact that some are still skeptical about them. The drone model and location of the filming have not been disclosed.

Remote control for the Russian ATGM "Kornet", shown at the IDEX 2025 exhibition in the UAE. In the second part of the video, you can see the use of the remote control with the ATGM "Kornet", in field conditions, the remote control is different, presumably this is the first version.
Anticipating a comparison with the remote controls of the Ukrainian ATGM "Stugna-P", the Russian version is significantly different. The remote control for the ATGM "Kornet" uses elements of artificial intelligence. Based on the image, the remote control itself tells the operator what targets are observed. The remote control can distinguish tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, wheeled vehicles
The remote control can automatically find targets and capture them. The operator only needs to switch to combat mode and press the "start" button. With the help of three remote controls, you can organize a circular defense, while the operators can be in cover at a distance of up to 100 meters. Assembly of the installation and ATGM takes no more than 20 minutes. The operating time is presumably up to 8 hours.

Episode of the training of the crew of the Russian BMPT "Terminator". In this version of the BMPT "Terminator" is also equipped with a canopy that protects the combat vehicle from drones. The video also shows the internal structure of the combat vehicle "Terminator". The combat vehicles are no longer shown again, but judging by their appearance, they are still in use.
More footage of homemade Russian 5.45mm cartridges designed to destroy drones. This is the fourth video about cartridges, links to the previous three videos about cartridges of other calibers are posted in the comments to the video. As before, the cartridges are not factory-made, they are made in a handicraft way. In this case, two plastic halves of a bullet are printed on a printer, after which a shot is inserted into them and they are connected. The finished bullet is inserted into the cartridge. Previously, it was assumed that the plastic of such bullets clogs the barrel of the machine gun, this is partly true, such cartridges are usually alternated with regular ones. In this case, the machine gun did not get clogged with plastic, at the end of the video the result is shown after using four magazines with cartridges.

Now the Russian army uses newer versions, the 1V119-1 Rheostat-1 command and reconnaissance post, they are produced at the Ryazan Radio Plant. The 1V119 Rheostat armored vehicle weighs 8 tons, it has a speed of up to 60 km / h and a cruising range of up to 500 km, a crew of up to 6 people.
