I love Russian engineering, and they have great propaganda/military might videos.. but ffs, use actors or at least use healthier looking soldiers/service men.. they all look like they have intestinal worms/parasites and/or a serious liver disease and sleeping issues on top. And most of the buttons look like they are falling off.. it's propaganda, alright, but makes me think Russia is more broke and desperate than we think :D
