🇹🇷🇺🇸🇷🇺 Stoltenberg said NATO did not persuade Turkey to swap the S-400 for Western systems.

NATO has not yet been able to convince Turkey to abandon the Russian S-400 air defense systems and exchange them for similar Western military equipment, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg admitted on Tuesday.
He stressed that the North Atlantic Alliance will continue to make attempts to persuade Ankara to purchase Western systems instead of the S-400, for example Patriot or SAMP / T.

“As I said earlier, this issue is important for NATO, this potential, the S-400 air defense system, must be interoperable with NATO systems. It must be possible to integrate it into the NATO air defense / missile defense system. Therefore, we also tried to find alternative solutions - Patriot or SAMP / T, the Franco-Italian system. So far we have not succeeded in this. However, we will continue to make such efforts, "said the Secretary General

In Russia, they decided to replace the SVD rifle. The point is correct, the SVD is morally outdated and not suitable for the tasks that are presented to modern combat. But the devil, as you know, is in the little things. Replacing the SVD should be exactly the same SVD, only it will be called a microwave, under the "NATO" cartridge 308Win (7.62x51). Below is the comment of a specialist:

“The SVD, which is still in service, was a very good rifle for its time. Even revolutionary. A reliable semi-automatic machine chambered for a fairly powerful cartridge is worth a lot. The aiming range (realistic) was at the level of 600-700 m, taking into account the accuracy of the "rifle-cartridge" complex, and of the muddy PSO-1. In the middle of the 20th century, this roughly corresponded to the ranges of the then battle in terms of sniper missions.
But time went on. The ranges all grew until they imperceptibly increased to 2 km or even more.
Our answer to this is microwave. Another semi-automatic, only in 308Win - a less powerful cartridge, inferior in speed, flatness and penetration characteristics to the outdated, but even more relevant 7.62x54R.
What would be the winnings and why should I have to exchange an awl for soap - I still did not understand.
If only the tasks were different: the development of funds, imitation of ebullient design ideas and stormy activity.
Snipers will not receive any other benefits on the battlefield as a result of replacing one letter. "
