Impressive! But what happens when it gets captured?
When it gets captured, the enemy will probably encounter too much of a learning curve to put very much of it to any quick use? But I’m just guessing that it would take an industrial complex, a lot of training and other things to even try to make all parts of it function as designed.
There may be other safeguards, as well?
Soviet armaments have always been distinguished by high effectiveness through robustness, ease of repairs and simplicity to use, true in WWII and to this day. This stuff however gives an opposite impression, just as you say, these many gadgets would certainly require a lot of training, so would be more suitable for some special forces, not whole armies in case of mobilisation. And yes, who knows would it actually work in the heat of battle. It should first be battle-tested, if not in Syria (no ground troops there) then definitely in a coming liberation of Ukraine.
I was thinking in terms of capture providing the means to co-opt the system, so there must be a password or some other security one must pass through to enter the system.
Ratnik is a sanskrit word .
Rath means chariot.
Indian Aryan warrioirs used to come to battlefield in a war chariot and fight while sitting or standing in the chariot.
That is why warriors of quality were called “Rathi “or even “Ratnik”.
Incidentky in the middle east war chariots came from the East (probably with kassites from India in 1600 Bc. ).
In my language (serbian), as well as some other slavic languages, ‘ratnik’ means ‘experienced warrior’, exactly.
In Tsarist Russia: ‘the ordinary state militiaman’.

First story I see MSM talking about Iran oil positioned to enter the world markets, after that final? nuclear agreement yesterday.
Oil prices fell below $30 for the third time last week as traders prepared for the prospect of Iranian oil flooding global markets.
The Islamic Republic has vowed to return its oil production to pre-sanction levels that stood above 3m barrels a day.
“The oil ministry, by ordering companies to boost production and oil terminals to be ready, kicked off today the plan to increase Iran’s crude exports by 500,000 barrels,” the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported on Sunday, citing Amir Hossein Zamaninia, deputy oil minister.
The price of oil was $115 per barrel 18 months ago until Saudi Arabia greatly increased production to crush rivals in the US and Russia.

quoting a Rooskie here about impact of oil collapse there:

The current oil prices may lead to quite hard and fast closures of certain oil producers in coming months,” said deputy Russian finance minister Maxis Oreshkin, in a tentative sign that doggedly low prices were beginning hurt the country.
