Never before seen types of military hardware, including new Armata main battle tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, will be showcased during the Moscow Victory Day Parade on May 9.

The Russian Defense Ministry posted on its website photos of its latest, most advanced models of military hardware that will be displayed in the Moscow Victory Day Parade on May 9.  

On the website one can see high-resolution photos of the new Armata main battle tank, the Armata infantry fighting vehicle on the new heavy tracked vehicle platform, Koalitsiya-SV self-propelled artillery system, and the Kurganets-25 infantry fighting vehicle.

The Russian Defense Ministry has previously confirmed that it will roll out a new-generation Armata main battle tank with an unmanned remotely-controlled turret.

This year’s premieres include high-end armored personnel carriers, high-precision self-propelled artillery systems, as well as the famous Sukhoi Su-30 and Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jets. The historical part of the march-by will feature the legendary T-34 battle tanks, the mainstay of the Red Army in the 1940s.

  1. Just in case there are any fools who think a fight with these people would be anything like fight Arabs who are not a worthy opponent, understand that the Russian people are of the same ancestral stock as the Germans, Poles, Fins, Swedes, etc. You get up from your seat on a train or bus there you will see mostly grey eyes and blond people looking at you. They are a tough people and smart. I know them very well. Also when we were fighting Germany in itally what was the casualty ratio? something like 4 or 5:1? Also fighting them on their own turf they have certain advantages. One disadvantage they have is not a lot of mountains to anchor a flank. They do have a couple of other things in their favor. First is MUD. You have not seen mud unless you’ve seen the bogs over vast areas like they have. This is Steppe of vast dimensions. Also if you wanted to destroy them with nukes it is not possible. They have a population density in many areas less than Wyoming. They have some large cities the size of Los Angeles that are spread out just like LA, but they have lots of small towns spread out all over 11 time zones.

    Bottom line? Russia is not a threat, unless you want to make them into one. Could be a dam good friend to have if you want to act like adults and be fair minded and cut the globalist crap and take your own constitution back and reimpose rule of law in your own country the USA, whom they once respected and revered. Yes that’s right. Russians are trying to be like what we once were.

    What the hell happened to us???
