Armament of the Russian Army

The first official footage of the launch of Russia's new jet-powered drone, the Geran-5, is also shown in the video. The Geran-2 drone is partially similar to a cruise missile. Official specifications for the drone are not yet available, but the expected flight speed is 450 km/h, the range is 950 km, and the warhead weighs up to 90 kg. It's worth noting that operational experience has shown that the drone's flight speed needs to be further increased to counter interceptor drones. A version of the drone with an R-73 missile for engaging aerial targets is also planned.

An episode featuring the Russian Peresvet combat laser system was shown in honor of the 81st anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. The Peresvet system was first shown in 2018, and at the same time, it began experimental combat duty at missile bases in Teikovo, Yoshkar-Ola, and Novosibirsk. The Peresvet system is capable of protecting facilities from air and space threats, such as aircraft and satellites. Essentially, the Peresvet air defense system is a missile defense system, similar to the S-500 air defense system. The laser blinds enemy guidance systems, suppressing optical systems and possibly disabling them. The system is still classified; only general information is known. The Peresvet laser air defense system covers a circular area with a radius of 65–90 km and is capable of blinding satellites in Earth orbit at altitudes from 200 to 1,100 km.
