Russia like China tends to exaggerate their capability. For instance, Russia's so-called hypersonic missile. The United States shot one down in Ukraine with a Patriot Missile. The Patriot missiles are from the early 1980s. And it easily shut down Russia's supposedly most advanced missile they make.

Lol. 2) In 1957, we had cameras capable of filming one frame per millisecond to capture footage of Operation Plumbbob. (Go watch the Fat Electricians video on it.) Why wouldn't we have the ability to get a big lens and zoom in a lot and take a video? We had telescopes back then. It's not hard to put a camera behind one and video it. And don't give me the shockwave argument lol. That's BS. I can't draw it over text, but you can look it up.

Russia already went broke in the Cold War trying to keep up.

The US Army uses a lot of CROWS units (Common Remotely Operated Weapons System) on top of vehicles. They can mount 7.62 machineguns, 5.56 machineguns, M2 Brownings, miniguns, TOW missiles, just about any gun that can be mounted on a vehicle can be set up for CROWS. The CROWS module is a turret that rotates and can elevate or depress the weapon to shoot targets right in front of the grill. I got to look at one up close mounted in a Hummvee, but they're on Strykers and Buffalo's too. On the Hummvee, the headrest of the passenger seat has an LCD screen which sees what the CROWS unit sees. There's a UV laser range finder and a ballistic calculator that adjusts the reticle to match the range for the weapon and the target. It has a UV camera and a thermal camera that can also record and transmit what the gun and operator sees. The gun is "steered" by a joystick from a fighter jet operated by the rear passenger from inside the uparmored Hummvee, or whatever vehicle it's mounted to. It's remotely operated, but there's a human steering it and pressing the fire button after getting the go ahead. Drones should never become truly autonomous, humans need to be "in the loop". Funny thing, the San Francisco police department was given permission to weaponize their bomb disposal robots not long after a Houston police department used one of their bomb disposal robots to blow up an active shooter by strapping an explosive device to its claw and then driving the robot behind where the shooter was hiding and then extended its arm and setting off the explosive behind his head to avoid officers getting in the line of fire.

The US has the M-109 Paladin Self propelled Howitzer. It's been around longer than the Swede's gun. It has a 155mm gun with a ballistics calculator so accurate, it can land three shells in the same target zone simultaneously, adjusting the trajectory and power load for the second and third round while the first one is still in the air. It can fire 5 rounds a minute for 3 minutes until it runs out of ammo in its battery, requiring a field reload. It also can fire the Excalibur rounds, which are rocket assisted shells with GPS guided fins to increase range and accuracy. The Army was developing an upgraded gun that could land 5 shells simultaneously and could fire even faster using liquid propellant instead of powder, just like fuel injection in a car engine, but then the Excalibur shell was developed and they figured the Paladin was plenty good enough, since it's better than anything the Chinese or Russians have. :)

The first "miniguns" were actually used before WW1 in the US Navy when they mounted electric motors and drum magazines onto their Colt Bulldog Gatling guns. They fired .45-70 cartridges, which could kill a buffalo up to a mile away from a buffalo rifle and could hit a 10 foot x 10 foot target two miles away from a US Army rifle in the late 1800's. The Navy used them in the Spanish American war, mounted to the rails of the ships to provide suppressive fire for Marines storming the beach. Years later, when jet fighter aircraft were outrunning the standard .50 BMG and 20 and 25mm guns, an Air Force officer re-invented the old Navy rail guns, but had them bumped up to 20mm and 25mm, the Vulcan family of electric gatling guns. Then the Army figured they could use .30 caliber (7.62) versions to mount on helicopters and ground vehicles. GE stopped making them because it was bad for their image, so another company took over the repair contract and redesigned them. One change was slowing the firing rate from 6000 rpm to 4000 rpm. Since the motor has a rheostat to control the speed, you can fire 0 or 1 round per minute. You can shoot miniguns for $$ at gun ranges like Battlefield Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada. One of my friends paid for his wife and his mother-in-law to shoot one in Vegas one year. There are several big machine gun shoots where people rent their machineguns to attendees, under supervision. There are very few privately owned miniguns. They're mostly owned by dealers and manufacturers or special effects prop houses for movies. A used dealer only law enforcement "sample" costs about $50,000 if you are a machine gun dealer or manufacturer. The privately owned miniguns rarely sell at auction because they're usually inherited. About 30 years ago a privately owned one sold for $150,000. They would probably fetch a million now, if one became available. The really cool ones coming out now are chambered in .338 Lapua, a MUCH heavier round than 7.62 NATO, but they're 50 lbs lighter with 5 barrels instead of 6 and a lot of printed titanium and alconel parts to reduce wear and tear and friction and use 40 volt cordless batteries instead of relying on the vehicle's power. You can change the battery when you load a fresh belt of 1000 rounds, put the battery on the quick charger, and it's recharged for the next belt. .338 Lapua miniguns have a 1500 meter longer effective range. On the opposite of the spectrum, there's a 5.56 Microgun which is man portable and fires 5.56 up to 4000 rpm and can fit in a carry on bag when stowed.

It's like engineering cams for rocket launches. They build the housing to survive so they can get super slow motion shots of the engines firing.

The Russian weapons seem to be all powerful but none of them seem to be reliable. There have been several Russian military members who have defected over the years who have said that in the event of a nuclear war that 60 to 70 percent of their missiles would fail to launch because of shitty maintenance. One defector stated that the missile base he was stationed at was so lacking in proper maintenance that all of the silos had between 9 and 13 feet of water accumulated in the bottom. Moisture is very bad for electronics and the guidance systems are probably corroded to junk.
