Пентагон официально признал: русское оружие превосходит американское

At a meeting of the United States Senate Committee on armed forces, General mark Millie recognized the superiority of Russian weapons systems over American.

General of the land forces believes that Russian tanks, artillery and missile systems are superior to American in range and power of target.

Millie notes that “the gap is too small and not striking”, but enough to take seriously “the Russian threat”. In his opinion, in the case of a hypothetical conflict with Russia, the U.S. army’s casualties were absolutely unacceptable. “If we enter into conflict with Russia, it seems to me, the lives of our soldiers will be seriously compromised”, said Millie.

Russia in the eyes of the Pentagon, remains “the number one threat”, however, the fighting in Syria has forced the United States to overestimate its military power.

“Our fundamental task in this region — to contain, to preserve the cohesion of the Alliance, to support allies and deter possible Russian aggression,” says mark Milly. Also, he drew attention to the fact that the United States should make a distinction between the fighting forces of the regional countries with which they still encountered, and equipped with the latest technology, the army of Russia.

We will remind, earlier Politonline.ru wrote that in the ranking of the strongest armies in the world, made according to Global Firepower the Russian armed forces took second place, surpassing even the colossal army of China — and losing only to the US. The Russian nuclear Arsenal were not considered.

It is noted that under President Putin “Russia immensely strengthened his army by upgrading technology, training and equipping soldiers”, as well as increased the volume of orders and procurement of military equipment from the military-industrial complex. “The fourth position in the ranking has kept India, the highest place of the European countries occupied by the United Kingdom, also in the top ten are France, Germany and Turkey”,- informs the press.

In addition, according to the Huffington post “Russia feels itself in the international arena more confidently and again feels a force equal to the West for political influence and military power”. Experts believe — “she has every reason — the country managed to modernize the army and improve weapons so much that even in some areas it is already ahead of US”.

By the way, if earlier the Russian conscripts tried at any price to “get” from service in army, now young people are besieged military registration and enlistment offices, demanding to take them to the troops — but the places they lack.
