The American edition of Business Insider with reference to the Russian magazine "Военная мысл" draws attention to the recognition of the Russians about the inability to repel a hypothetical attack by NATO.
The Russian Federation is not ready to repel an attack from NATO
In the material of the Russian edition, to which the American journalists refer, the scenario of a hypothetical enemy missile attack on strategic objects on the territory of the Russian Federation is considered.
It is noted that in the event of a massive missile attack by a hypothetical enemy on objects on the territory of the Russian Federation, the Russian army can use nuclear weapons in response.
The authors of the material of the Russian edition recommend expanding the missions and equipment of the Air and Space Forces of the Russian Federation.
What is required in Russia to protect against possible attacks by NATO
Russian military experts, among other things, demand the development of more advanced UAVs and other weapons, as well as an automated fire control system.
In addition, it is recommended to improve intelligence and aviation activities, strengthen the protection of military airfields and other military infrastructure facilities.
Business Insider journalists link the material of the Russian edition with NATO's large-scale exercise "Northern Response 2024".
More than 20,000 military personnel, 50 ships and 100 aircraft are participating in the 11-day maneuvers on the territory of Norway, Sweden and Finland.
Journalists of the American edition also note that despite certain successes of the Air Force of the occupation army of the Russian Federation in Ukraine in supporting the ground forces, in general the Air Force of the Russian Federation demonstrated its own striking inefficiency.
