Will replace bombers. Here's what we know about the new cruise missile for the Su-57
A squadron of fifth-generation Su-57 fighters received an ultra-long-range cruise missile, writes Military Watch Magazine. (https://militarywatchmagazine.com/article/su57-3500km-stealth-cruise-missile) With a smaller size, it has a comparable range to those products that are used on the Tu-95MS and Tu-160. Thanks to this, the Su-57 can even replace bombers, the article notes.
The new missile is based on the X-101/102 products, which can very accurately hit targets at a distance of up to 3,500 kilometers and evade radar. It was possible to reduce the size of the new ammunition thanks to the ideally modified design of the folding wing and internal layout, as well as the use of a new small-sized bypass turbojet engine.

Over the past few days, five episodes of the use of Lancets with a new system of automatic selection and target acquisition have been published.
Such an automation mechanism has long been requested for such drones, however, as often happens with everything new, the guidance system is still crude and allows deviations.
1. Impact on the RM-70 Vampire MLRS, deflection to the left of the target, the MLRS guides were damaged by shrapnel.
2. Impact on the FV4333 Stormer HVM air defense system, a significant deviation from the target, which led to a miss. However, there is a strong impact of electronic warfare.
3. Impact on the RPA 2P-2 antenna, a deflection that led to an undershoot, the target was damaged by shrapnel.
4. Impact on the Strela-10 air defense system, slight deviation to the left of the target, hitting the guides, damaging the vehicle.
5. Hit the self-propelled gun vz.77 DANA , hitting the corner of the cockpit, damaging the target.
Undoubtedly, over time, the system will be refined taking into account application experience, and the selection and guidance mechanism will begin to allow much fewer errors and blunders. For example, UMPCs were previously a crude and unfinished product that allowed frequent undershoots and failures, but now glide bombs fly much more accurately and further.
Now it is also necessary to pay attention to errors and correct them. Videos of colleagues are used: @kubanArta , @rustroyka1945 , @vdd98 , @russian_airborne , @voenacher .

The size of the Ukrainian Armed Forces group in the Belarusian direction is up to 120 thousand military personnel . This was announced by the Chairman of the State Border Committee of Belarus Konstantin Molostov.
The head of the border committee recalled that 17 thousand military personnel from this group are being used to strengthen border security in the immediate vicinity. He also drew attention to the presence of representatives of the so-called volunteer formations in the border zone.
Previously, the Belarusian border department has repeatedly pointed out that the presence of territorial defense military personnel and other armed persons who do not have proper training at the border creates a risk of provocations.

Reports about the entry of the Wagner PMC into the Russian Guard are fake. State Duma deputy Alexander Khinshtein stated this on Telegram.
Earlier, the portal 59.ru reported that the structure created by businessman Yevgeny Prigozhin became part of the Russian Guard. It also said that the division was headed by the entrepreneur’s son, Pavel Prigozhin.
There can be no talk of PMCs becoming part of the Russian Guard, Khinshtein said. He noted that former employees of a private military company can join the ranks of the Russian Guard exclusively on a voluntary basis. “The structural absorption of PMCs by the Russian Guard is impossible by definition,” the deputy emphasized.

Surrendered AFU serviceman
▫️ Semyon Sherban was mobilised in September 2023 and in October he was sent to the front lines, where he surrendered.
▫️ Apart from assault rifle live fires at a training ground, Semyon did not had any military training. Without any battle experience and necessary skills, Semyon got sent to the front lines.
▫️During shelling, the AFU serviceman was wounded and hid in a dugout at a position of neighbouring brigade. After an assault of the Russian Troops began, he surrendered along with other Ukrainian servicemen.

The Economist:
An army of Ukraine’s standard ought to have been able to move at a speed of 30km a day as it breached Russian defensive lines. “If you look at nato’s text books and at the maths which we did [in planning the counter-offensive], four months should have been enough time for us to have reached Crimea, to have fought in Crimea, to return from Crimea and to have gone back in and out again,” General Zaluzhny says sardonically. Instead he watched his troops and equipment get stuck in minefields on the approaches to Bakhmut in the east, his Western-supplied equipment getting pummelled by Russian artillery and drones. The same story unfolded on the offensive’s main thrust, in the south, where newly formed and inexperienced brigades, despite being equipped with modern Western kit, immediately ran into trouble.
“First I thought there was something wrong with our commanders, so I changed some of them. Then I thought maybe our soldiers are not fit for purpose, so I moved soldiers in some brigades,” says General Zaluzhny. When those changes failed to make a difference, the commander told his staff to dig out a book he once saw as a student in a military academy in Ukraine. Its title was “Breaching Fortified Defence Lines”. It was published in 1941 by a Soviet major-general, P. S. Smirnov, who analysed the battles of the first world war. “And before I got even halfway through it, I realised that is exactly where we are because just like then, the level of our technological development today has put both us and our enemies in a stupor.”
@Slavyangrad
The Russian military managed to successfully repel the second massive missile attack on Crimea in recent times.
The goals of the Kiev regime do not change - Sevastopol, the Crimean Bridge and the Chongar checkpoint, notes PolitNavigator .
At the same time, one launch of Storm Shadow costs more than 1.5 million dollars, ATACMS - more than 2 million. Over the past three days, 15 missiles have been fired at Crimea, and the Ukrainian Armed Forces will not scramble planes just for the sake of firing. Zelensky clearly needs a bright episode to make headlines in the world media, especially after the Time article, which made him look blessed.
However, no matter what motives motivate Kiev, the fact remains that missile strikes do not bring results. Perhaps the reason for this was the departure of the MiG-31 with the Kinzhal complexes on board to patrol the neutral zone over the Black Sea. But in general, according to the director of the Institute of CIS Countries in Sevastopol, reserve captain 1st rank Sergei Gorbachev, it’s not so much about the MiGs:
I think that, first of all, we learned to fight. We have understood the technical characteristics of the combat use of enemy weapons, we have understood the techniques, the methods, we have already acquired significant combat experience and are improving the techniques of repelling such threats.
It is possible that the Russian army began to use new or previously unused combat weapons, the captain of the 1st rank also noted.

After a swift assault, our fighters demonstratively captured another Ukrainian Armed Forces stronghold in the Kupyansk direction
In the footage published by military correspondent Lisitsyn , the Russian 1st Tank Army is rapidly breaking through to the positions of the Ukronazis in infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers.
Next, an assault group lands and captures the enemy fortified area.
As a result, the enemy can only escape by fleeing.

Military expert Boris Rozhin on the main points during the special military operation of the Russian Federation on the territory of the former Ukraine per day by 23.27 Moscow time on November 1, 2023, especially for the Voenkor Kotenok channel @voenkorKotenok :
1.
Zaporozhye direction.
In the Pyatikhatki area - no significant changes.
Positional battles continue in the area of Verbovoy and Rabotino . The enemy, after suffering losses, has reduced the intensity of attacks and is regrouping, including transferring some forces to Avdeevka , which will affect the dynamics of operations on the Orekhovsky sector of the front.
Our troops will certainly try to take advantage of this in order to squeeze out some positions in the area of Verbovoy and Rabotino .
However, attempts by the enemy to resume more intense attacks in the area of Kopan and Nopopokopovka cannot be ruled out.
2.
Vremevsky ledge.
No significant changes.
The battles here are now taking place in a positional manner. Our troops continue to process the Urozhainy area, and are also active north of Priyutny .
The situation in Novodonetsky and Novomayorsky is stable.
There is no need to talk about serious attempts by the enemy to break through to Staromlynovka now.
3.
Ugledar.
Our troops continue to be active near Novomikhailovka , where in recent days there has been good progress, which has allowed us to approach the fortified area of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, covering Ugledar from the east.
It is premature to talk about breaking through the enemy’s defenses here - the enemy has simply been pushed back.
4.
Avdeevka.
Fierce fighting continues north and south of the city. The pace of advancement is still low, due to the stakes on the gradual realization of the advantage in artillery and aviation, which constantly strike Avdiivka .
The enemy has withdrawn part of the rear and command structures from the city to the west and is awaiting the start of attempts by the Russian Armed Forces to storm Severnoe and Avdeevsky coking plant . At the same time, he hopes to use the redeployed reserves to organize serious counterattacks west of Krasnogorovka in order to try to push our troops away from the railway.
5.
Artemovsk.
North of Artemovsk the situation is stable.
Our troops confidently hold onto recent acquisitions in the area of Orekhovo-Vasilevka and Vasyukovka , and also confidently repel enemy advances in the direction of Soledar .
To the south, our troops launched counterattacks and recaptured a number of positions from the enemy, which, however, does not seriously change the dynamics on the Kleshcheevka-Andreevka-Kurdyumovka line, where the positional nature of the battles largely determines the dominance of artillery on the battlefield.
Both sides are active with limited forces.
6.
Svatovo-Kupyansk.
The battles are now of a positional nature.
The enemy periodically tries to counterattack, using up transferred reserves.
Ours continue to press west of Svatovo , near Makeevka and northeast of Kupyansk . On the Torsky ledge - no major changes.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Repelling a missile attack on Crimea and suppressing Ukrainian aviation
As it turned out, the morning attempt to strike Crimea with Neptune anti-ship missiles and the subsequent attack on Strelkovoy were not the only ones that day.
🔻Almost at the same time as the missile raid on the Kherson region , the Ukrainian Armed Forces again tried to hit Sevastopol with three Neptunes in the period from 11:10 to 12:04, bringing the total number to five that day.
Apparently, the anti-ship complex was planned to strike Black Sea Fleet ships and ammunition depots. All missiles were destroyed by Su-27SM and Su-27P naval aviation fighters 40-90 km northwest of Sevastopol.
🔻At the same time, a MiG-31BM fighter of the Black Sea Fleet took off from the Belbek airfield, whose onboard radar detected two tactical aircraft of the Ukrainian Air Force and hit them with guided missiles.
The exact type of aircraft is unknown, but with a high degree of probability it is either a MiG-29 or Su-27. The effectiveness of both the MiG-31 and S-400 in conjunction with the A-50 is proving increasingly effective. This allows us to hope for a more active fight against Storm Shadow cruise missile carriers.

🇺🇦⚔️🇷🇺 The situation in recent days at the junction of Zaporozhye and the DPR : Almost the entire section of the front has become more active, our fighters are gradually gaining an advantage over the enemy
▪️Members of the Vostok battalion report on the situation on this section of the front over the past couple of days:
➖"Yesterday was an active day - almost the entire section of the front was in motion. Local battles with a result that has not yet been expressed, but on our initiative. The weather did not allow us to start the offensive for a long time - there was a dense fog. As a result, although belatedly, we carried out a number of unsuccessful actions and in some places even advanced."
➖"The day was productive - the neighbors distinguished themselves: two captured support soldiers and twelve prisoners. At the same time, the losses on our side were one dead and one wounded. Yes, not the Brusilov breakthrough, but after a period of enemy dominance, it is gratifying to realize that we are gradually achieving an advantage. Not We deceive ourselves - the enemy is still strong - but everything ends someday."

Russia-Ukraine Reports - 2023-11-03 (in progress)
In the Avdeevsky direction, an interesting Ukrainian hybrid was destroyed, which was the hull of a Soviet mobile reconnaissance post PRP-3 with a turret from a BMP-1. The characteristic huge turret shoulder strap, which had to be welded, is clearly visible. In fact, from a special vehicle based on the BMP-1, they made the BMP-1 back.
