Russia's Motivation to Help Belarus With the S-400*Mark Episkopos* *S-400, Europe* Belarus is set to join the growing ranks of S-400 importers. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* In sum, the Kremlin is giving Minsk the money to buy its S-400 systems at a subsidized rate reserved for Russia’s domestic forces. Though the commercial wisdom seems dubious at best, the strategic benefits of this deal are much more readily apparent. S-400 systems fielded in westernmost Belarus will give Russian-aligned missile defense forces increased coverage.

Saturday Snippet: Life and death on the California TrailI've got a treat for fans of Western novels in general, and of my Ames Archives series in particular. It's the first in what I hope will be a new Western series, not replacing the Ames stories but augmenting them. It will add a new, earlier, far-West dimension to my novels of the Old West. I've called the series "The Annals of Ash". The first volume, which will be launched on or about January 15th, is titled "Wood, Iron, and Blood". The cover image is taken from "The Jerk Line", a painting by Charles M. Russell, a contemporary of Frederic Remington. I've used the latter's ... read more

Fifth Generation Long Range Missile Could Help in Navy Battles*Kyle Mizokami* *Naval Strike Missile, Europe* The Naval Strike Missile may not be widely fielded now, but it looks to have a bright future ahead. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Norwegian firm Kongsberg designed the Naval Strike Missile in part due to its long coastline with Russia. It has since become one of the most powerful and advanced systems around.
