Gen. Viktor Bondarev, commander of the Russian Aerospace Forces told the Moscow-based TASS News Agency on March 2. Russia made the decision to extend the development of the Tupolev PAK-DA in favor of the Tu- 160M2 in 2015. Serial production of the new Blackjack variant is expected to start in 2023. According to Russia’s deputy defense minister Yuri Borisov—as cited by TASS—the Tu-160M2 has been fundamentally upgraded with completely new mission systems and other improvements over the existing M variant. “This will be essentially a new airplane, not a Tu-160 but a Tu-160M2,” Borisov told RIA Novosti last year. Details on the exact nature of the Tu-160M2 upgrades are scarce. Presumably, Tupolev has made long-overdue adjustments to the airframe that were supposed to have been implemented during the Blackjack’s original production run.

    CAUSALFACTORS ‘clash of motives’ The Tu-154 pilot knew that the approach was unsafe but was strongly motivated to land. © Jan Ostrowski/Airliners.net 20 | FLIGHT SAFETY FOUNDATION | AEROSAFETYWORLD | FEBRUARY 2011 CAUSALFACTORS BY MARK LACAGNINA he flight crew’s failure to proceed to an alternate airport after being told repeatedly that the weather conditions at Smolensk (Russia) Severny Airdrome were significantly lower than the nonprecision approach minimums was the “immediate cause” of the controlled Tflight into terrain accident that killed all 96 people aboard a Tupolev 154M the morning of April 10, 2010, according to the final report by the Russian Interstate Aviation Committee (IAC). The IAC also faulted the crew’s continued descent below the decision height without visual contact with ground references and their failure to re- spond to numerous terrain awareness and warning system (TAWS) warnings.

The IAC report said that the presence on the flight deck of the commander-in-chief of the Polish air force during the approach exerted “psychological pressure on the PIC’s [pilot-in-command’s] decision to con- tinue descent in the conditions of unjustified risk with a dominating aim of landing at any means.” The four flight crewmembers were Polish air force pilots assigned to a special regiment conducting VIP flights.

"" - Hugo Meynell, author of "Redirecting Philosophy: Reflections on the Nature of Knowledge from Plato to Lonergan. In diverse settings from indigenous cultures to Western medical industries, contributors consider such issues as how to define the boundaries of "medical" knowledge versus other kinds of knowledge; how to understand overlapping and shifting medical discourses; the medical profession's need for anthropologists to produce "explanatory models"; the limits of the Western scientific method and the potential for methodological pluralism; constraints on fieldwork including violence and structural factors limiting access; and the subjectivity and interests of the researcher.

Tokarev hroughout history, despite the influence of Alfred Thayer Mahan’s concepts, continental European and Asian navies have had a simple choice to make: Teither to create a balanced fleet to engage another balanced fleet at sea and defeat it in one or more “decisive battles” or to take an “asymmetrical approach,” creat- ing an “unbalanced” navy, able to prevent the enemy from achieving sea control and to keep one’s own vital sea lines of communication (SLOCs), if one has any, untouched by the enemy’s naval forces. In the case of Russia, the era of a blue-water, balanced navy ended with defeat in the Russo-Japanese War of 1904–1905.

  • Client Update U.S. Issues Guidance on Sanctions Relating to Russia's
    Client Update 1 October 30, 2017 Client Update U.S. Issues Guidance on Sanctions Relating to Russia’s Defense and Intelligence Sectors On Friday, October 27, the U.S. Department of State issued public guidance on the implementation of Section 231 of the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA). Section 231 of CAATSA requires the U.S. President to impose potential sanctions against individuals or entities that knowingly engage in “significant transactions” with persons that are a part of, or operating for or on behalf of, Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. An overview of CAATSA is provided in our Client Update of July 28, 2017. The new guidance is accompanied by a list of entities considered to be operating in Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. The guidance indicates, however, that not all large transactions with the listed entities will be considered “significant.” Rather, the State Department will focus largely on defense-related or intelligence-related transactions. Section 231 of CAATSA authorizes sanctions for conduct engaged on or after August 2, 2017, with any sanctions imposed becoming effective on or after January 29, 2018. The State Department also has stated that it intends, when possible, to “work with” persons contemplating transactions with the listed persons to help avoid sanctionable transactions. DEFENSE AND INTELLIGENCE SECTORS Over thirty entities, listed in the appendix to this update, are identified in the guidance as persons that are part of, or operating for or on behalf of, Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. As the State Department’s guidance makes clear, the entities named in the guidance are not subject to U.S.
