    Our special forces of the Omega Central Strategic Command destroyed a Russian Su-24M bomber at the Saki military airfield in temporarily occupied Crimea.

    The successful operation was carried out by combat divers of the Omega Special Purpose Center of the National Military University, who once again confirmed their ability to carry out high-precision strikes on priority enemy targets far behind their rear.

    After identifying the actual target, careful planning of the operation was carried out. At the moment when the aircraft was preparing for a combat sortie to carry out the next strikes on the territory of Ukraine, the Omega strike drones hit the target.

    The first UAV hit the nose of the Su-24M, the second struck again in the area of the fuel tanks, ultimately causing its destruction.

    This result is another confirmation that the National Guard of Ukraine is systematically increasing its capabilities in the use of strike unmanned systems at a significant operational depth.

    Today, units of the 1st Corps of the Azov Naval Group and the 2nd Corps of the Charter Naval Group are also effectively carrying out combat missions at ranges of over 100 kilometers.

    The main targets are logistical routes, ammunition depots, command posts, air defenses, personnel concentrations, and enemy aircraft.

    Such strikes significantly weaken the enemy’s combat capabilities, disrupt its supply system, and force it to divert significant resources to protecting its own rear.

    Every destroyed aircraft, ammunition depot, or command post means fewer opportunities for the enemy to wage war.

    The National Guard of Ukraine continues to develop the direction of high-precision strikes, scale the capabilities of unmanned systems units, and methodically destroy the most important military facilities of the aggressor state.

    Work continues.

    The enemy’s list of priority targets is constantly updated.







  • It’s an interesting concept. But knowing capitalism it’ll soon be used and abused.
    /We can’t have anything nice.

    Reflect Orbital’s satellite, Earendil-1, features an adjustable “highly specular, thin-film reflector” for directing sunlight, and a built-in propulsion system that’s supposed to help it avoid collisions and otherwise maneuver while in low-earth orbit. Reflect Orbital imagines operating a Starlink-esque network it can position for on-demand sunlight (powering solar panels or increasing visibility for search-and-rescue teams), but for now it’ll test its premise with a single satellite.
