Syrian Army Advances as Russia Intensifies Air Strikes in Region - Media

The legitimate Syrian army advanced in an offensive Saturday, reclaiming two mountains and an armory depot near the town of Mahin in the country’s province of Homs, after Russian jets reportedly intensified attacks on ISIL in the area.

Russian bombers on Saturday conducted more than 70 airstrikes against militants in Syria, Xinhua reported, citing pan-Arab al-Mayadeen TV.

According to the report, Russian aviation has "intensified" its strikes, hitting Jihadists’ positions next to the ancient city of Palmyra, near the town of Mahin and the al-Shaer oil field in the East of Homs Province. After that Syrian army managed to regain two mountains and an arm depot in the Mahin area, the report declared.

Moreover, Syrian forces succeeded in recapturing large parts of al-Zahiyeh mountain located in the countryside of the country’s western coastal city of Latakia due to the prolific work of Russian bombers, amid activists’s reports of mass displacement from the area in the direction of Turkish border.

The attacks are being carried out as a part of intensified air campaign aiming to destroy ISIL positions in several areas around Syria.

Russia started its anti-ISIL operation in Syria in late September, after an official request from the war-torn country’s authorities. Since then, the Russian effort to hit ISIL positions across the country, has been praised by state officials as providing serious assistance in combating the militants.

Russia intensified the airstrikes recently to assist Syrian forces in combating ISIL and other militant organizations in countries key areas, sucah as Latakia countryside, Aleppo and Homs, Xinhua concluded.

Certain percentage always does but it is still within parameters. This is why it's 2 missiles per target.

Good score any way you put it, prospective byers will be satisfied.

So far,this is first evidence of a cruise missile apparently failing in Iran. But, lack of a proper crater still brings questions. That said, the last ones claimed were never proven. So there is possibility someone in Iran is purposely spreading false information.

1 failed cruise missile over a total of how many launches? Track record is good. Unless you believe the bullshit our Iranian member is spreading.

Do you have evidence of the last 4 that apparently failed yet?

Looks also like Iran will have the real deal to compare with the Ukrainain bought variant they used for their own tactical CM's.

Also it looks like it pancaked, this is one drop launched by the TU95's. so basically it just never ignited. Not safe for the locals to handle it.

Confirmed Kh-55?
The engine still looks in good shape.

Engine looks external, as far as I can tell. While both X555 and X101 have it integrated.

Definately not Kh-101 due to shape of warhead. Possibly Kh-555 but huge chance it was Kh-55 due to external engine.

Not a single photograph, like with the Russian invasion force in east Ukraine. Everyone and his dog has a cell phone that can film these
cruise missiles in flight but nobody can take a photo/video when they crash. Yeah, right.

Look it up Iranian user uploaded it .

Kh-55, Kh-55SM, Kh-555, and Kh-101, all, have engines in nacelles that get lowered into the airstream.

I thought the X555/101 had only the air intake popping out at launch.

KVS is talking about the previous 4. This is 1 cruise missile and it isn't Kalibr.

Follow the discussion before giving worthless advice.

The US had 15% cruise missile duds during its 1999 attack on Serbia. It claimed the exact same failure rate during
the initial salvo of Russian cruise missiles from the Caspian. Not a single photograph was produced. Yet here we
have all of this fine photography. So I call BS on anyone claiming that the the US propaganda had any legitimacy.

So now we have evidence of one dud and we can estimate the rate to be under 1%. Perhaps for this particular
cruise missile model the failure rate is much higher. This is good field experience which Russia will use to evaluate
its arsenal and make corrections.

You're still stuck on the previous alleged 4 failed cruise missile landed in Iran ? Everyone knows it's a PR drivel without proof . He posted 2 pages back claiming missile failed with some genuine pictures this time.

max steel wrote:HAHAH WELL FOXTROTALPHA is one of the many US military enthusiast running site/blog on internet showing how Russian is junk and everything is all great about our Empire of Chaos.

I can't believe the crap in that website..the comments..

1) SOme People comparing the new Russia Command center as a building from the 80s  
2)Others instead were saying.. Russia wasting money in such a building that US could destroy with with nuclear hit.  
3)Others claiming that it looks like North Korea
4)THen others claiming.. ohh its too big.. you cannot do "Real work on it" , real work is only
done in the smaller dark rooms that US have.  
5)Oh from where Russia got computers from China?

Its just mind blowing western thinking ,they are so brainwashed into US Imperial propaganda
that they find impossible to believe that Russia could build highly capable military or even make any weapon or building better than anything they have.  

Its like a contest of idiocy.

Is warhead safe enough to screw around with? I would keep my distance just to be on the safe side....

Reports of Russia deploying an artillery unit in Homs province to help SAA. Apparently SAA does not know how to use artillery at all, which explains why SAA has been unable to beat some rag tag rebels. As proven in Donbas, artillery is king.

sepheronx wrote:I would say Vann is correct here. Both about the cruise missiles and the maps. He has yet to prove the first failure which he has not, then it would make is claim that another failed invalid. It would mean that this is first failure (and 1 missile at that). As well, his map shows that Syria lost territory after Russian strikes which we all know that is wrong. Unless all we are fed of victories for saa were false.

You talk as if previous claims of Russian missiles falling in IRAN were true.
