#Russia is a Terrorist State

The US is to provide Ukraine with intelligence for long-range strikes on Russia’s energy infrastructure, as the Trump administration weighs sending Kyiv powerful weapons such as Tomahawk and Barracuda cruise missiles that could put more targets within Russia in range.

Russia has quietly relaunched an upgraded Tarantul-class corvette after years of delays, converting a 1990s hull into a modern coastal strike ship armed with Kh-35 “Uran” anti-ship missiles. The vessel—now sailing as Strelok under Project 12418—represents a low-cost way for the Russian Navy to add missile punch to littoral patrol forces while the country’s new-build shipyards struggle to keep pace.
