Ukraine is a very big country and Russian forces are only in Crimea, where they had bases anyway. They have secured and occupied Crimea, no where else. It is a political move, there will be no fighting.
In my town, too many Russian (by nationality), but sorry that no Russian military ...

To extend, USSR is talking about the GAZ Tigr wich in English would be GAZ Tiger. Like the HMMWV, the Tigr also has a civil version. Here is a video about comparing the Tigr with the HMMWV. In the beginning a lot of talk about their military background and then later showing the Tigr in terrain.

comparing the Tigr with the Hummer H1.

February 12, 2014 in Komsomolsk-on-Amur aircraft plant solemn transfer of 12 new Su-35s in the Russian Air Force.
This a landmark event : aircraft (4 + generation) enters into service, not by the piece - massively.

Thank you, USSR. Your photos are always a treat.

There's a level of complication due to the politics, and the perceived saber-rattles. But I always look forward to your posts.
Guys, my country (Russia and USSR) is at war last three hundred year's)))) .... I'm started a new business .... so it's all good) My grandfather passed two wars (1938 and 1941-45 year) .. my father was artilleryman in Georgia ... now, apparently me, it's time to remember what is it - kalashnikov)
