Forbes: Russia Uses ‘Swarm Of Drones’ In Military Exercise For The First Time

Russian state news agency TASS reports that a swarm of drones was used for the first time in a military exercise.

The drone operation was part of the giant Kavkaz-2020 (Caucasus 2020) exercise now being held at training grounds of the Southern Military District, which involves some 80,000 personnel. Previous releases indicated that the focus of the exercise would be on drone warfare.

“At the Kapustin Yar proving ground a combined group of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) was created. It incorporated Southern Military District units armed with drones Forpost, Orlan-10, Eleron-3 and others," according to a Defense Ministry official quoted by TASS.

The various drones reportedly carried out reconnaissance from very low to high altitude, as well as hitting ground targets.

The media reacts quickly and with righteous indignation when a black person is shot by police, or by someone white, no matter what the facts of the case are.

But far too often, even in the most heinous of cases, when the perpetrator is black and the victim or victims happen to be white, the headlines and reporting are not anywhere near the same.

Police say the gunman shot four adults and the boy in the living room at a home in the 100 block of Perry St. about 1:55 a.m. Monday.

The 4-year-old child, Rowan Sweeney, died at the scene.

The boy died in his mother’s arms, police said.

What remains sad is how silent the mainstream media has largely been on the story. Imagine if the suspect was white and the four-year-old was black.

It tells you a lot about those those modern day "Der Stürmers" and their racist loyal readers.
