I doubt it. Dogs are too smart to become suicide bomber especially if they have seen or smell what had happen to the previous dog.

Moscow (AFP) - Twenty-three Russian conscripts were crushed to death when their military barracks collapsed in Siberia, the latest disaster blamed on apparent shoddy construction work and lax safety standards.

An entire section of military barracks, including parts of the roof and walls, collapsed on Sunday evening just outside the Siberian city of Omsk as paratroopers were resting, the defence ministry said.

"As a result of the collapse, more than 40 servicemen were injured," Investigative Committee spokesman Vladimir Markin said on Monday.

"Twenty-three conscripts died, the others were hospitalised with various injuries."

Nearly 20 injured men have been airlifted to top hospitals in Moscow, the defence ministry said.

The blue-and-white barracks -- built in 1975 and renovated in 2013 -- belonged to the Airborne Forces' 242nd training centre that prepares junior officers and armoured infantry vehicle drivers, among others.

President Vladimir Putin has been informed of the incident, which occurred in the village of Svetly just outside Omsk, some 2,200 kilometres (1,400 miles) east of Moscow, a Kremlin spokesman said.

"The president expressed condolences to the families of the victims of the accident at the Omsk training centre," the Kremlin said.

Putin was being regularly briefed by Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu, who has been tasked with providing all necessary assistance to the victims, the Kremlin added.

Survivor Maxim Kolmakov said his fellow servicemen realised that something was amiss when chunks of plaster began falling off.

"Everyone started running out of the barracks and the barracks began falling apart," he said in televised remarks, adding that some of the young men jumped from the second floor on to mattresses to save themselves.

In footage shown on national television, rescue workers formed a human chain to pass bricks and other debris to one another as they cleared the mountain of rubble from the collapse.

Combined Instrument Making Corporation (DIC, is a Rostec) has created an underwater robotic vehicle (PRA) "Glider-T" with the functions of electronic warfare (EW) and orientation at depth without the help of GLONASS, told RIA Novosti, the representative of the corporation.

"The unit will be able to determine the type of passing ships on the sound solve problems EW simulate decoys obstruct the sonars and other sonar devices of the enemy," - said the international military-technical forum "Army-2015", which was represented by the novelty .

As explained by the representative of the defense industry, "Glayler-T" can be operated in standalone mode up to 180 days, both individually and as a group, a route without human intervention. "Our know-how - a technology that allows" glider "to focus on the depth without the GLONASS signals are not available, as is well known, under the water," - he explained.

A complete set of specific functions and the necessary equipment on board is installed on the machine by the customer: it is a different instrumentation, sensors, and sensors. "He can patrol certain waters, implement sampling of water and determine the level of contamination, take photographs of objects transmit information to computer equipment via GSM-modem, radio or satellite communication", - he added.

"Glider" was developed by the Moscow Design Bureau "Compass" and constructed of heavy-duty and relatively lightweight material, resistant to sea water and oil. It is equipped with an innovative engine, which allows the machine to move seamlessly to modern means of detection.

Technical Reference
"Glider-T" is designed for various research tasks at any time of the year m waters without ice in all weather conditions. The unit with the equipment for different purposes able to navigate through the program, and perform using modern materials and technologies.

The body of the underwater robot is made of heavy-duty and relatively lightweight material, resistant to sea water and oil. The original drive is based on the motor and mechanical actuator has no external mechanical moving parts, which provides a high stealth detection by means of radio and sonar.

The device can move in the water and change direction commands for which transmission can be performed in several ways. "Glider-T" can be used independently, or as part of a group of similar devices that solve the same or different tasks depending on the goals.

The device is capable of operating up to a depth of 100 m and moving at speeds up to 0.25 m / s with a payload up to 3 liters. With dimensions 1,5h1,5h0,3 m and a diameter of 200 mm autonomous body of the apparatus reaches 180 days. The movement of the apparatus along the route is carried out using an inertial control system, which automatically pops up and clarify his whereabouts.
