How good are Russian tanks and military anyway?



If "Pravda" reports that there are over 25 000 killed Russian troops in the Ukraine war. There must be many other killed combatants like mercenaries who are not reported. The Russian army calls mercenaries from Northern Africa and other friendly countries. That thing, allows them to hide some part of their losses in the war. 

Modern warfare is very technical, and the use of advanced technology means that there are lots of places, where can be errors. Even if something works perfectly in simulations and training there could be a difference in real situations. In modern high-tech, only one connector that is not connected properly the entire system can fail. The active protection systems must be working as they should. 

And if there is some kind of errors in computers, sensors, or computer programs the system would not work correctly. Then we can think about the tanks and other equipment by using the questions. What that equipment should be? What have they been in training and exercises? And then the final and the most important question is: are all product series made with the same accuracy and qualification standards as the tanks and systems that are reserved for Putin's favorite commanders. 

The thing in Russian tanks and other military systems is that when we are reading their technical analysis those systems would be the best in the World. But then we can see what happens in Ukraine. There are lots of destroyed tanks. Maybe the destruction of one "Armata" tank doesn't make them fail. 

But the fact is that there is something that destroys the Russian tanks in Ukraine. Is that thing something between the steering wheel and backrest? Are the Russian troops lacking training? Or did somebody forget to tell them how they should do that equipment? Or did somebody tell them that their tank is immune against all possible ammunition? 

Is that thing the problem with tactics? If we think that the thing that causes losses is tactics, why Russians will not change their tactics? When we are looking at things like the Ex-CIA chief's testimony about Putin's need to win the war in Ukraine we must remember one thing. In Ukraine are fighting the most trained troops. And if the losses of that kind of troops are heavy they are hard to replace. Those troops are the most loyal staff in the Russian military. 

And without them, Putin loses part of his authority. Those highly trained military staffs are the tool that Putin affects police and paramilitary troops. If the police will not smash demonstrations. Putin sends that professional military personnel to that mission. But things like raping, other kinds of war crimes, robberies, heavy use of alcohol, and other undisciplined actions are causing discussions about the professionalism of those troops. 

There are also killed many Russian generals in Ukraine. The loss of about 10 generals where at least two were lieutenant-generals is not a small thing. The list is taken from Wikipedia, and some of those losses are disputed. And most of them are not confirmed. But the fact is that even if some of those people are injured. That thing doesn't mean that they can continue their career. And the loss of lots of senior officers affects the training of the successors for those officers.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
