But what I aim at is a scientific prediction (see Scientific Prediction ≠ Prophecy) and ... Read more| Peter Turchin

The drone operators who halted Russian convoy headed for Kyiv The unit is also looking at ways to overcome Russian jamming, part of the electronic warfare being waged in Ukraine in parallel to the bombs, shells and missiles. At present, Aerorozvidka typically waits for the Russians turn off their jamming equipment to launch their own drones, and then it sends up its machines at the same time.
