When they have the power of the state with them and the backing of their fellow hobbyists and RC community globally, the drone and RC plane folks can weaponize commercial technology like drones, cheap RC planes and 3d printers. A lot of military drones started out in the RC plane community with engineer hobbyists. Add an encrypted military grade receiver and transmitter that can frequency shift and harden the electronics and you can make a lot of drones near military grade. It is not difficult to construct your own custom drone from parts bought online either.

The slaughter of the politically indifferent and who never saw the real value of liberal democracy. Politics has a way of reaching out and touching the politically indifferent and bigoted in a most unpleasant way. Vlad wanted to make Russia great again too, instead he and his cronies just ripped everybody off and drove Russia into the ground while preaching nationalism, imperialism and bigotry. None of them cared about politics, they would leave the state alone, if the state left them alone, it's every person for themselves and not functioning properly as a successful society.

The idea of having a big continental Russian empire composed of autonomous states and territories in eastern Asia needs to go if Russia is to become a liberal democracy. Liberal democracy and other viable political parties in these republics and regions will mean dissolution eventually. So, the price paid for empire must be individual and political freedom or The Russian federation/empire would fly a part and the main job of the large federal internal security apparatus is to see that it doesn't. Moscow is not the only place in Russia political opponents are suppressed, murdered or imprisoned.

Look at the fucking thing, ordnance is kept in magazines not hanging off the side of the ship, a .50 cal machine gun round could sink the fucking thing. Start punching holes in those missile tubes and she will go up in a ball of fire pretty quick, anything that can hit it can sink it FFS, down to a .50 cal round. Get close enough with a javelin or even an RPG and it's toast.
