Once again, for years now, Kinzhal is an air-launched ballistic missile folks. We were among the first if not the first (publicly) to analyze it as an Iskander-M SRBM adaptation when it first emerged. Enhanced range and endgame kinematics, as well as the potential ability to more… Show more

We just got hi-res imagery of Pavlohrad, Ukraine, where Russia struck a rocket/explosives storage facility, resulting in an absolutely massive explosion.
Look at THAT crater. Terrible destruction.

On the southern half of the installation, looks like a crater where one of Russia's standoff weapons missed. Also looks like the structure in red got hit independently, although with such a huge blast, maybe it was a delayed secondary.

As we have made the case in the past, it's hard to imagine a better team pairing Q-58s with F-35Bs (even F-35Cs) during island hopping/austere airfield/short field operations.

That huge shockwave we saw a few days ago emanated from the epicenter of a giant secondary explosion initiated by a Russian strike that destroyed nearly all of a rocket storage facility near Pavlohrad, Ukraine. Massive destruction. Our full report: thedrive.com/the-war-zone/i

I wrote a big piece six or so years ago about the need for a stealth tanker. People thought I was nuts then. Not so much anymore. It was a painful thing to write because there really shouldn't be such a urgent need for that capability. The USAF continuing to invest very heavily… Show more

Based on what's written on the bomb itself, basically it is less than 1/5 explosive by weight. That skews even more when the fins and guidance kit are added.

Most don't realize just how thirsty an aircraft like an F-22 is. Just no real idea of it. They hear the combat radius metrics but it just doesn't compute. The gas has to be VERY near by.
