As is well known, the 1st casualty of war is the truth; that's why I refrain from commenting too much to avoid arguments & hollering, & to let every1 make their own determinations & form opinions, without appearing to be imposing any of my own.

That way I can sift trough propaganda & half truths from all sides to form a more complete picture.

They are more prepared than any given country in NATO.
I suppose that the Iranians MIGHT be better prepared in a sense of tools, yet doubt the numbers - that is why I have several times claimed that we should very carefully inspect the Iranian AD assets and composition. They are obviously well established with antidrone warfare.

ALAMO wrote:As I said, put that into perspective.
If a Kornet missile cost is $5k. No way Lancet will cost more than that, actually much much less.
And there is nothing in Geran to cost $30k, seriously.
Those calculations are made to cheer themselves of how much the Russkie have spent. Numbers are getting ridiculous, they have tenfold the Calibr price for example to come with the conclusion that Russkie spent half a billion in one day.
Like that would make any impression on them, considering the economic situation to begin with ...

Edit : have you tried at Roszakaz? Asking seriously, tons of bizarre data can be found there, and that is the best source one may find.

No blood or faces so I decided to post these pics. De-nazification and de-militarization continues.

Geran-2 has the cost of a motorcycle, not more if you have a big serial production.
If Russia have the production chain in Russia, then the cost is lower with the internal prices level

yes , prehaps to produce something like that in USA have a price of 30.000 or 100.000 dollars, but this is the corruption of industrial-military complex in USA

Pentagon drones ‘8 to 14 times’ costlier than banned Chinese craft

Ukraine doesn't get the money, it goes straight to the US MIC and other people with their snouts in the trough.
Most of the money the MIC gets, is laundered as R&D costs, with a small amount actually going into weapons production.

That's how they managed to blow a trillion on the F-35 project.

It's all about milking the US tax payer, who doesn't really care, because the US just conjures more USD debt instruments to cover it, and sells them to suckers like China and Japan, or pension funds.

I wouldn't put much attention to this number.
First, Komsomolskaya is a tabloid, not better than The Sun or Der Bild.
A photo in the article does not present Geran-2 to begin with
Second, as you can see, they are extrapolating adding the things to the price of a good quality moped
"the things" are a system elements that are multiple use, some of those are non existing (weapon, as the drone is a weapon), hell, most of the moped systems are not even there!
