8/ It appears that 11 years later, Russia has been unable to make a proper import-substitution, meaning that even in 2025 it planed its modernization around large industrial machinery made in Europe. Yet Russia remains confident in its ability to procure this equipment.

7/ This is not a one-off upgrade, but part of a decade-long effort to expand production, with the current phase accelerated by the war. In letters sent in 2014 to the Ministry of Industry and Trade, Plant No. 9’s CEO requested confirmation that such equipment had to be imported

6/ Liebherr is not the only German company on the list. HERMLE AG and DMG MORI also appear, alongside the Italian companies TACCHI and PARPAS, the British firm JONES & SHIPMAN, and the Taiwanese manufacturers KAFO and Glory.

5/ For clarity, this is an example of one of the ordered machines, the LC-500 gear hobbing machine by the German company Liebherr. As seen in the photo from Liebherr’s official website, this is not small electronics, like a router, that could be easily bought and repurposed

4/ According to floor plans and procurement documents, Russia planned to deliver at least 22 large industrial machines to the modernized facilities of Plant No. 9, including gear-shaping, milling, and other modern multifunctional equipment.

3/ Six facilities within the Uralmash industrial zone were found to be undergoing modernization, including planned delivery of industrial machinery from several European countries. Several workshops were dedicated to work on the Armata project and the Koalitsiya SPG.

2/ In a joint analysis, Frontelligence Insight and the "Dallas analytical" company reviewed hundreds of internal documents from Russian defense contractor Zenit-Investprom and found that Plant No. 9, a maker of artillery barrels and tank guns, went through major upgrades in 2025

Russia’s war in Ukraine has increasingly become a war of drones, but artillery still plays a key role on the battlefield. Newly obtained documents from 2014 to 2025 show that Russia continues to modernize its artillery production using industrial machinery from Europe. 🧵Thread:

If you were to read English-language commentary, you would get the impression that immigration is a sole issue of paramount importance. In reality, according to the data (Yomiuri), voter priorities were the economy, social welfare, child-related policies, and pensions mostly

Reading English-language commentary on Japan’s recent elections is quite an amusing experience, as people often project American political issues onto a completely different country, focusing and debating on issues that are not even top-5 priorities to Japanese voters

You might have wondered whether our team has paused analytical updates. Absolutely not. We have been working on several major probes, and the first, looking at the growth of artillery production sites and showing strong reliance on Western machinery, will be published tomorrow

In today’s Vatnik Soup, made together with chef invité @martinlaineolen.bsky.social , we discuss the extensive links between pedophile sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and Russian officials and intelligence operatives, and how Western politicians reinforced these links.

For years, an online meme phrase spread in the Ukrainian segment of internet, saying that a pedophile lobby was working against Ukraine. Seeing how many anti-Ukrainian figures show up in the Epstein files, from US elites to officials in Slovakia, it no longer feels like a joke

Forget politicians and billionaires being tied to a pedophile network, the real crisis and a reason for outrage is a guy kicking a taillight at a protest.

I’ve lived in multiple countries across different continents, including the US, and one of my degrees is from a U.S. college. I know far more about the U.S. than people assume, it’s just that American politics isn’t my main field of interest, aside from military and foreign policy.

There have been plenty of GOP members of Congress who supported Ukraine since the beginning of the war, as well as regular conservatives who donated, went to rallies, or reached out to their representatives. Some still do, but with them it often feels like two steps back and one step forward.

I know that when I say uncomfortable things about US actions, both toward allies and internally, I lose some support from conservative circles in the U.S. But that doesn’t matter to me, because being on the right side of history and standing with the Americans who stood with us is far more important

People who consistently ignore the Epstein files are suddenly very concerned about strict obedience to the law when it involves a man who shielded a woman who had just been pushed to the ground by an agent. Should we expect the same insistence on following the law when it comes to the Epstein files?

For years, American conservatives have preached about the 2nd Amendment, open carry, and federal authority, yet when a US citizen is shot by federal law enforcement, they rush to conclusions before any investigation has even begun. It has always been about hollow partisanship

That’s correct. That being said, the majority of Axis losses, as well as the majority of Axis troops were tied down and deployed, both in numbers and in quality, on the Eastern Front. If the USSR had fallen to Germany, the outcome for the UK and the US would have been far worse as a result

Tomorrow, the Russian invasion of Ukraine will reach 1,418 days, the exact same number of days as the German invasion of the Soviet Union, from the border crossing on June 22nd to the official proclamation of Victory on May 9th and capitulation of Berlin.

Saying this without judging religions or ideological beliefs as such, I find a dark amusement in watching millions who claim to be devout Christians and defenders of traditional family values cheer for the death of a woman, strip protections from the needy, separate families, and celebrate wars
