The may day parade would be a nice time for a drone(s) to fly over red square on an autonomous mission and drop blue and yellow colored leaflets on the parade and crowd, Greetings from Ukraine! Have them with news stories about atrocities and other stuff printed on them. I can see Vlad now with his generals on Lenin's tomb, with leaflets raining down from a half dozen simple disposable stealth drones on a one way trip, they can land or blow up after passing through town... :lol:

This year Lenin's tomb will be uncovered and Vlad will stand on top of it with his generals. This seems more and more a trip down memory lane for Vlad.

The problem is the Russian population has so overwhelmingly accepted the state propaganda alternative reality.

I read an article about a reporter in Ukraine talking with her Russian mother about what was going on in Ukraine, repeatedly, over the course of a week. The mother was incredulous and refused to believe her own daughters first hand account and just repeated the party line. This isn't an isolated occurrence.

If they don't believe their own children, it's unlikely a pamphlet is going to change their minds, not sure what could.

Since they took all that turf in the north, they might now have all kinds of shit that was broken down or stuck in the mud there. They might have many more new tanks with a few simple repairs and some fuel.

‘My my my … what a catch.

That is a serious piece of hardware - disregarding the shit track system . I hate to give kudos to the “ owners “ but that is something I would mount on my frontier while in traffic on the 405.

VLAD is just giving away tech.

Karma‘s a bitch ….

Russia’s Military might / May Day parades …. Meh … Potato.

Those processions of military vehicles and such will highlight which systems the west now has to scrutinize . No hiring Clint Eastwood to steal the “ FireFox “ . I remember Russia stealing the shuttle design and creating the “ Buran “ space shuttle , a damn near one to one copy.

What is different from the people here repeating the Big Lie or belief in the 100's of conspiracy theories, or that CRT & sex ed are taught to toddlers??

Not it's purpose, it would be to humiliate Vlad and help to get rid of him sooner. Also a big morale booster for the Ukrainians and a laugh for their many supporters, the press would have a field day and NATO leaders could joke about it. Besides it would be fun to do and perhaps some millionaire could foot the bill! ;-)

A half dozen drones showing up at the may day parade dropping leaflets, sends another message to Vlad, it could have been bombs! You are not safe in the Kremlin!

Better yet, paint the drones one blue wing and one yellow and after they do the leaflet drop they orbit red square at low level a few times and fly a pattern over it with the guards trying to shoot them down, turn it into a fucking flying circus, then they fly away! ;-)

Another idea would be to have a drone sky write Fuck you Russia in Cyrillic, with yellow and blue smoke, then have it repeatedly zoom the crowd in red square with blue and yellow smoke trailing...

Source: Ukraine is preparing provocations with the death of residents of the Kherson region
A Ukrainian sabotage group is located near the village of Aleksandrovka, Kherson region, and is preparing provocations with the death of civilians in order to blame Russia for this, a source in the Russian law enforcement agencies in Kherson told RIA Novosti, citing his informants in the Ukrainian troops in the Nikolaev region.
The task of the group, according to the informant, is sabotage and subversive activities related to the organization of shelling, mining houses and schools, which can lead to a large number of civilian casualties.

Georgia’s South Ossetia plans to take steps to join Russia
The separatist leader of Georgia’s breakaway region of South Ossetia says the Moscow-backed territory is planning to take steps in the near future to become part of Russia.

Russia recognised South Ossetia as an independent state in 2008 after fighting a short war with Georgia. It has provided the separatist region with extensive financial support, offered Russian citizenship to its population and stationed thousands of Russian troops there.

Hey all those drone might be brought down outside Moscow or when they hit red square, or maybe not! They would use GPS and not be remote controlled and fly a waypoint mission, similar to what some hobbyist do with Inav and other systems. They could be shielded somewhat from energy weapons by shielding the electronics properly. A simple gas engine and a big plastic pusher prop get the foam stealth wonder there.

How would they get the GPS signal if they were shielded? Going to need a mighty big gas tank to go 250 miles. May not have much room for a payload.

CEC of South Ossetia received a statement on the "Russian" referendum
An application for registration of an initiative group for a referendum on joining South Ossetia to Russia was received by the Republic's Central Election Commission, press secretary of the South Ossetian leader Dina Gassiyeva told RIA Novosti.

Earlier, the President of South Ossetia , Anatoly Bibilov , said that the republic would soon take legal steps to become part of Russia . According to him, the opportunity to realize this "strategic goal" was back in 2014, when Crimea was reunited with Russia following a referendum.

The group consists of about ten people - Bibilov, ex-president Leonid Tibilov , parliament speaker Alan Tadtaev, as well as political and public figures of the republic.

Earlier it was reported that the referendum on joining Russia will take place after the presidential elections, which will be held on April 10, when all the necessary legal procedures are completed.

Moscow recognized the independence of South Ossetia, and with it another former Georgian autonomy, Abkhazia , on 26 August 2008. Earlier that month, Russia came to the defense of South Ossetia from the Georgian army, which sought to return it to the rule of Tbilisi . Since then, the Russian leadership has repeatedly stated that the recognition of both republics reflects the prevailing realities and is not subject to revision.

Trouble in Georgia would be bad for Vlad right now, he's short on warm bodies and might only have pilfered and stripped junk in his reserves, which he is loath to call up, perhaps for this reason, among others. If he doesn't sign a peace in Ukraine, Georgians could have new allies and Ukrainians in their country and on their side. When they drive the Russians out, many Ukrainians will still want a piece of them wherever they can get it and would go to Georgia as mercenaries or volunteers. Shit they have too many guys wanting to volunteer now, some are offering bribes to get into the reserves! So perhaps they could get 10 or 20 thousand Ukrainian volunteers, maybe more, armed by the CIA and open a new front in Vlad's war to take the heat off the folks back home. Vlad is weak and if folks want there turf back, now would be a good time to do it, kick him while he's down.

It would be a challenge, GPS can be jammed too, but most things use multiple systems these days and they have some inertial capabilities and autonomous flight. GPS antennas look up and might be possible to shield it somewhat, they only need periodic fixes for most stuff, doing acrobatics over red square might be out of the question! These things are pretty light made from laminated foam and such. Say 80 or 100 mph 3-4 hr duration with 10 kg payload, maybe a couple of gallons of fuel an hour with a small engine and big wings. It would be a bit of a project to gather data and do the math for a one way say 300 mile trip.

If it wouldn't cost too much, try it and find out, nothing too fancy, shield the electronics package and servos and wires from the bottom and sides the most. Ya never know what might get through and it could be a good way to find out making it worth while in it's own right. If it looks home made from RC parts from China better yet.
