Once upon a time, in a world cloaked in secrecy and danger, there were special missions called covert ops. These are the hidden operations of spies and soldiers – men and women who risk their lives silently behind enemy lines. With a special blend of cunning and skill, these operatives pursue their mysterious goals, like shadows of the night.
Covert ops are secret missions that have a big impact on military strategy and the landscape of the world. These risky missions often lead to critical wins and give an edge both on and off the battlefield.

An F-22 Raptor stealth fighter that was seriously damaged in 2018 after it skidded down the runway on its belly at Naval Air Station Fallon, Nevada, has returned to operational status. This marks the end of an elongated five-year period of restoration on the aircraft. The Air Force had previously hoped to have the F-22 flying again in Spring 2022.

The thing about parades of military strength is that you need a military and it has to look strong. Unfortunately for no one, Russian President Vladimir Putin didn’t have much of either on Tuesday.
Prigozhin threatened to withdraw his forces last week unless they received the ammunition they needed before withdrawing the threat.
The head of the Russian mercenary group Wagner said on Monday that his troops were beginning to receive the ammunition needed to press their drive toward the capture of the long-besieged eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut.
“Today, the groups advanced a maximum of 130 meters… The fighting is fierce, but the groups continue to advance,” Yevgeny Prigozhin said in an audio message posted on social media.

Marking the 78th anniversary of the defeat of Nazi Germany, Russia’s Victory Day parade today was a very muted affair, with only one tank — a World War II-era T-84/85 museum piece — present, compared with the massed ranks of more modern tanks and armored fighting vehicles in previous parades.
The traditional patriotic display was heavily influenced by the ongoing war in Ukraine, with veterans from the campaign taking part, but the overall picture was of a greatly scaled-down event when contrasted with those in recent years.

The latest U.S. security assistance tranche for Ukraine, valued at $1.2 billion, includes funding for commercial satellite imagery services as well as a slew of air-defense capabilities.
The package was announced by the Pentagon on Tuesday. The list of capabilities put out by the Department of Defense did not specify which company or companies would provide the satellite imagery services, or how much of the funding would be allotted for that. DefenseScoop has reached out to Pentagon officials to try to get that information.
