Russia’s military-industrial complex

    The Russian's military-industrial complex is being constantly updated. In October 2015 the world became suddenly aware that Russia possesses sophisticated long-range cruise missiles. The message was spread by the country's Caspian Flotilla in the most no-nonsense, matter-of-fact way possible, as its warships successfully obliterated a number of Daesh targets in Syria by launching Kalibr-NK missiles from hundreds of miles away. While many of this new cruise missile's parameters still remain classified, apparently it has an effective range of 350 kilometers when deployed against naval targets and can hit assets on the ground from a distance of up to 1,500 kilometers.

    The latest modification of the Yars intercontinental ballistic missile complex has been successfully launched from a military site in Russia's north.

Though most of its characteristics are classified, open information suggests that it can deliver at least four thermonuclear warheads weighing 300 kilotons each to a target located 11,000 kilometers away.

    The world's newest 8×8 APC Boomerang debuted during the May 9 Victory Day Parade in Red Square signalled a break from previous wheeled APCs made in Russia. 8×8 APCs are now mandatory for armed forces around the world, especially those pretending to be modern. This is because 8×8's are well-suited for paved roads during urban combat and afford lots of visibility from gun sights, periscopes, viewing slits, hatches, and even mounted cameras. 8×8 APCs are also at the forefront of the ongoing “modular” revolution in military affairs, where a single vehicle type is upgraded to suit a specific mission. Furthermore, 8×8 APCs today support varying combinations of weapons and protective measures. For these reasons, 8×8's are now ubiquitous, manufactured in at least 20 different countries.
