"If President Milosevic Zelensky really wants all of his population to have water and electricity all he has to do is accept NATO's Russia's five conditions and we will stop the campaign. But as long as he doesn't do so we will continue to attack those targets which provide the electricity for his armed forces. If that has civilian consequences, it's for him to deal with".

🚨 Breaking News : Russia Using Starlink-Linked AI Drones to Knock Out HIMARS — Report 🚨

Russian forces are increasingly using drones equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) processors and commercial satellite communications technology linked to Starlink to locate and destroy Ukrainian HIMARS launchers, according to a detailed analysis published by Asia Times.

The report states that Russian unmanned aerial vehicles, including modified Geran-2 variants, have successfully struck mobile HIMARS launcher vehicles at significant distances from the front line. One cited incident occurred near Novobakhmetevo, roughly 60 kilometers from active combat zones, underscoring the extended reach of these drone operations.

According to the analysis, these drones are fitted with AI hardware such as NVIDIA Jetson system-on-chips that allows autonomous target recognition. By comparing real-time drone imagery with pre-loaded satellite maps, the systems can identify targets without heavy reliance on GPS signals, making them more resistant to electronic warfare and jamming.

A key element highlighted in the report is the use of compact Starlink satellite terminals on some Russian drones. These terminals reportedly provide low-latency, high-bandwidth communications, enabling long-range control, real-time data transmission, and improved strike accuracy. Certain drones are assessed to have operational ranges exceeding 230 kilometers. The exact source of the Starlink terminals used by Russian forces remains unclear, with analysts suggesting they may have been acquired indirectly or diverted through third-party channels.

The integration of AI-enabled autonomy, satellite communications, and non-jammable data links is described as a significant evolution in Russia’s drone warfare capabilities. This combination has reportedly improved Russia’s ability to track and target high-value, mobile Western-supplied systems that were previously difficult to engage.

HIMARS, supplied to Ukraine by the United States, is among the most advanced long-range rocket artillery systems in service. Capable of firing guided rockets and ATACMS missiles with ranges extending up to approximately 300 kilometers, the system relies on rapid “shoot-and-scoot” tactics for survivability. The report suggests that AI-assisted drones may now be eroding this advantage.

According to Asia Times, the adoption of commercial satellite connectivity and off-the-shelf AI components is allowing Russia to partially close the technological gap in precision targeting, despite broader constraints on its defense industry.

⚡UAV Commander of Ukraine's Third Army Corps:

Ukraine gave away the third-largest nuclear arsenal for international guarantees.

We gave up our missiles to Russia; they later flew on us again.

Obedience40:
Like I noted earlier, there was no way the US will conduct any form of military action against a Nato country, it was never feasible..

Like I said the Tariffs threat by Potus will form the basis of the agreement with the US for a long term use of the territory of Greenland..

A lot of people will be scribbling rubbish, regurgitating propaganda without any iota of knowledge on geopolitics.

After all the noise pollution on the thread. Las las shebi una go rest!!!!😂😂😂😂

Oya since war no war for Greenland, what's the next country the US is going to invade? Nigeria??

⚡Putin:

Regarding Greenland… well, this doesn’t concern us at all—what happens with Greenland.

But we do have experience in resolving similar issues with the United States in the 19th century, I believe in 1867. As we know, Russia sold Alaska, and the United States bought it from us.

If my memory serves me correctly, the area of Alaska is around 1,717,000 square kilometers—perhaps a bit more. And the United States bought Alaska from us for 7.2 million US dollars.

In today’s prices, taking inflation into account over all these decades, that amount would be about 158 million dollars.

The area of Greenland is somewhat larger—around 2,166,000 square kilometers, also perhaps a bit more. That’s a difference of roughly 450,000 square kilometers.

So if you compare this with the cost of the United States’ purchase of Alaska, then the price of Greenland would be somewhere around 200 to 250 million dollars.
