The pilots and their aircraft have contributed to a marked improvement in the situation in Syria. And they have made clear to the authorities what must be improved in the equipment and training of this part of the Russian Navy.

My Dearest Friend, all the Russian's did was assist the Middle East's last remaining "Bloody Dictator" to remain in power and continue "murdering" his own people, further driving Syrian refugees to further flood Turkey and assorted other Middle Easter country's, all of Europe and now the United States....

I can assure you, there is a very real Hell to pay for this type of sin against humanity, and yes I realize in your world it always the US's fault, and in this particular circumstance you are exactly right, the Obama/Hillary team fomented "Arab Spring" has been a crime against humanity, but Mr. Putin continues to add to the death toll as he props up Mr. Assad.

Its clear the Syrian people wish to be free from this horrible massacre, just as it was clear the Ukrainian people wished to be free from their Russian Puppet. Mr. Putin is bloody, violent, ruthless, power hungry, and it almost seems delighted by these current events, which allow him to peddle arms and influence. Again, I acknowledge that we are currently doing similar ignorant and inept things.

If it were not for the Obama/Hillary regime and the Russian's, this brush fire would have burnt itself out 4 years ago??? and yes I can say Benghazi, what a "damnable mess"!

My prayers are for the Syrian people, that those fomenters or violence will STOP, STOP NOW! for all our sakes, if these "idiots" continue their grand stupidity, a Biblical Armageddon seems inevitable !

OT
There are two answers:

First
Having a bloody dictator is better than being a failed state which would be the result of the destruction of Syria.

Second
Assad is not a bloody dictator in the league of the rulers of Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. He has the support of all Muslim and Christian minorities, together about 30 % of the population as well as half or more of the Sunni's. The "rebels", apart from a few "Moderates", if there are any, are Wahhabi extremists who kill any Shiites and Christians that don't succeed in escaping. Al Qaeda as well as Daesh are Wahhabi. Of course in the defence of his country against the terrorists he has caused many terrorists to die but he tries to minimise "collateral damage" because he doesn't want to antagonize ordinary citizens. If you want to read more about developments in Syria look at the articles by Robert Fisk (

) a British journalist with 40 years experience in the Middle East.
Wahhabi is a heterodox and violent sect of Sunni Islam which has been effectively propagated by Saudi Arabia because of its excessive wealth.

As for Ukraine the current president Poroshenko has a "popularity" of about 10 %, even less than Yanukovitch ever had. Poroshenko wouldn't have become president without the efforts of "NGO's" that are fully financed by Washington and Brussels and of course the direct actions by Victoria Nuland.

an F-16 was dogfighting with a Flanker in Nevada this November:

(Russians speculate it would be either of originally Ukrainian Flankers serial# 96310408027 or 96310418210 or 36911027717)

So that was an SU-27 dogfighting an F-16 over "Groom Lake" that's basically "area 51". So yes we do have Flankers, and what is likely occurring is that we are working up tactics for the F-16 to easily defeat the SU-27s, Flankers etc, etc.

So you play out multiple scenarios and come back with an OPs manual and a training regimen. Do this and this and that, but DON'T do this??? Trust me, those guys are both trying to win, and they will come up with a "sure fire" F-16 kills Flanker every time! and a No-No column, if this happens and that happens get the heck out of there??

They are building a "School Curriculum", trust me, those F-16s and drivers are very capable of dispatching Flankers, its just gonna be a little more work. With our aircraft being deployed to Europe, and our friends flying F-16s?? this information will be A+, and those engage and destroy tactics will be winners, that's whats going on at "Groom Lake".

Russia will be equipped with RS-28 Sarmat new intercontinental ballistic missile in 2019 - 2020.

The Russian Strategic Missile Forces will receive Sarmat complexes in 2019-2020, Commander of the forces Colonel-General Sergei Karakaev told reporters. The RS-28 Sarmat is a new Russian-made intercontinental ballistic missile in development since 2009.
Simultaneously with the withdrawal of the Voevoda complex from the Strategic Missile Forces it is planned to put on combat duty the strategic Sarmat stationary silo-based complex with liquid-fuel heavy missile. The preliminary operational time is 2019-2020," he said in answer to a question when Sarmat can replace Voevoda.

The reliability of the Voevoda complex remains stable after 28 years of operation. "The adopted decisions will keep Voevoda in the Russian Strategic Missile Forces up to 2022 including," Karakaev said.

It was reported that Sarmat had to become operational in 2018. It is a heavy intercontinental ballistic missile with a payload of up to 10 tons against 8.75 tons of its predecessor. The new missile is to replace R-36M2 Voevoda which, according to open sources, has been in service since 1988.

The prototype of a new ballistic missile was ready yet in the autumn of 2015 however pop-up tests have not begun so far. A source in the military-industrial complex told TASS the reason was unprepared silo launcher at Plesetsk cosmodrome. He said test trials will begin in late 2016.
