Nottyboi and Crystal have unfettered access to any and all information they want.More and more Russians use VPNs to find out what's really going on.
Well Tolstoy wasn't half bad.I did. There was a thread on here a while ago about how to behave in russia, around russians. If they offer you a drink, you must drink it or they will be offended, even if you don't drink. Don't smile to yourself while out and about. They find that offensive. And more russian bullshit. Fuckem all. What have they ever contributed to humanity except misery.

From what I was told they were trying to get t-72 tanks in storage into drivable condition and started three weeks ago.Don't you think that makes sense? Why would you put your prime gear out for parade? There is no firing demonstration.
Armata is not yet in full production. Russia tends to fully develop platforms and test them thoroughly rather then the US that puts things into production and then fixes them in the field or scraps them and then builds a upgraded model. They can't print money like the USA does ..no one can.From what I was told they were trying to get t-72 tanks in storage into drivable condition and started three weeks ago.
The victory day parade has always been a show case to show new Russian technology.
Noticed there were only 3 Armata based platforms in the parade this year, the same tanks as in the last three years.
The US was already attacking Russia economically and accusing it of many things, plus sanctioning the Russian economy left right and center. So to say that Russia attack out of the blue is really nonsense. Japan attacked in WWII due to sanctions pressure. Germany elected Hitler after its economy was destroyed by war repartitions. To say Russia is paranoid and the USA isn't is absurd. After all Russia spends about 1/10th what the US spends on military.
Included one t-34, 3 T-14 (same as the last three years, only 3 of 5 delivered in 2015 that still run), no Armata based IFV or SPG, no Pantsir, 8 S-400, no s_500.There will be some shiny new stuff among the old. They even include WWII T-34s in the parade. But the T-14 will be there, all the Armata based IFVs and SPG. Pantsir, S400, S50O, Kaliber, and SU-35 and SU-57. There will also be a some latest moded T-72 as the installed base is massive.
