Tomsk Electrotechnical Plant (part of Uralvagonzavod Concern) has developed the DP216 electric motor for BelAZ dump trucks. It is planned to manufacture 25 such products in 2023. When starting a powerful diesel engine, the DP216 electric motor is the first to start and operate. It is it that drives the oil pump, and only when the oil pressure reaches the required value, the starter is switched on, which starts the diesel engine. From 2025, the Belarusian Automobile Plant plans to produce the main types of quarry equipment exclusively on Russian engines.

In total, about 40 systems and units were replaced on the import-independent Superjet.

"Today's flight of the Superjet with Russian systems is the result of a great joint work of the design team and the factory staff, who developed, assembled and lifted a virtually new airplane in a short period of time, including for the global aviation industry," said UAC CEO Yury Slyusar. - This is the best demonstration of our country's technological independence. We have proved, first of all to ourselves, that we can develop and produce modern civil airplanes on our own, without imported technologies. The next ambitious tasks are to certify the airplane in a fully Russian design and start serial deliveries to airlines".

In order to accelerate the testing program, the first prototype of the aircraft uses French-Russian SaM146 engines. The second prototype will soon start the flight test program with domestic PD-8 engines, which are currently undergoing a series of bench tests and flight tests as part of the IL-76LL flying laboratory.

A primer on basic infantry training,
—-

There is a common myth that boot camp is designed to produce "drones", people who do not think and do not question.

This is not so. Military boot camp is designed to replicate a deployment cycle.
All the tedium, the nonsense, coalesced into 3 months. Then two more for infantry training.

This training instills a sense of discipline, which Ukrainian troops miss out on.

For all the stupid stuff we do, it serves a purpose which Ukrainians miss out on in their so called "training".

Result is men on the line facing shelling and not knowing what to do.
Indeed, what can they do? Nothing at all.

In about 7.5 hours, we'll be speaking with some people on the ground in Donetsk, where the home front and the battle front blur into one another. Audience participation may be limited somewhat toward the end. We thank our guests for giving us this opportunity to hear from them.

If you have any questions that you'd like to ask Donetsk residents, please comment under this channel post. I won't be able to ask all of them, but I will ask what I can. If you also want to ask a question that someone else already posted, give it a 👍 so we know how popular each question is. Please don't ask questions related to warfare. These are regular people who just want to share their experiences.

Medvedev: The Ukrainian criminals have announced that they have agreed to any strikes on everything in Russia, "for example, in the Crimea." If this is true (and there is no reason to doubt now), then this is direct legally significant evidence of complicity of the West in the war against Russia on the side of the state of Stepan Bandera. A refined casus belli, and for Russia the opportunity to act within the framework of jus ad bellum against everyone and everyone in the NATO countries.
It's sad, alas. The predictions of the Apocalypse are getting closer.

Situation on the fronts, morning of August 29th:

On the Zaporozhye front section, intense heavy fighting continues on the southern outskirts of Rabotino. The settlement has not fallen; our soldiers are holding back the AFU's onslaught.

The Kiev command continues to transfer new forces to the area. Ukrainians are rushing to Novoprokopovka and Verbovoye. However, they encounter the Russian Army there, and the enemy sustains significant manpower losses.

In the Artyomovsk direction, the enemy doesn't cease attacking Kleshcheyevka. Russian units counteract the AFU's efforts and, through a counterattack, halt all their attempts. Our goal is to remove the AFU from the heights adjacent to the village.

Additionally, our soldiers are launching counterattacks against Ukrainian units in the Kurdyumovka area.

On the Kupyansk front, our Army is systematically advancing, clearing out AFU strongholds. Another enemy stronghold was captured near Sinkovka.

Despite the challenging circumstances, the leaders of the AFU are pushing them to counterattack. The Russian Army successfully repelled one such assault attempt near Novoyegorovka.
