The special unit Sobr Bulat Moscow is one of the most important associations of the Russian Guard. The Guard is responsible for Russia's internal security. It employs around 400,000 people, including well over a hundred special units. Many of them, like the special task force Moscow, are referred to as elite associations. The Moscow SEK unit is called SOBR Bulat, witch means 'Rapid reaction forces steel'. The main operational areas of the special task force are organized crime and terrorism. The art of improvisation, quick reactions and the willingness to take responsibility - these are the qualities that SOBR Bulat's special forces must have. In addition, of course, there is physical fitness. The men of the Moscow elite unit are officers, between their early 20s and late 40s. The special forces are allowed to serve as long as they are mentally flexible and physically fit. Both are checked regularly. There are no precise figures about the strength of the troops. It is treated as a state secret. The SOBR Bulat should have around 200 special forces. WELT accompanied the special unit Moscow for three months in training and on missions.

The Sturmgeschütz III (StuG III) assault gun was Germany's most-produced fully tracked armored fighting vehicle during World War II, and second-most produced German armored combat vehicle of any type after the Sd.Kfz. 251 half-track. It was built on a slightly modified Panzer III chassis, replacing the turret with an armored, fixed superstructure mounting a more powerful gun. Initially intended as a mobile assault gun for direct-fire support for infantry, the StuG III was continually modified, and much like the later Jagdpanzer vehicles, was employed as a tank destroyer.

The Panther was a German medium tank used during World War II on the Eastern and Western Fronts in Europe from mid-1943 until the end of the war in 1945. It had the armament designation Sd.Kfz. 171. Designated Panzerkampfwagen V Panther until 27 February 1944, when Hitler ordered the removal of the Roman numeral "V". The Panther was intended to counter the Soviet T-34 and replace the Panzer III and Panzer IV. However, it served alongside the Panzer IV and the heavier Tiger I until the end of the war. It is considered one of the best tanks of World War II due to its superior firepower and protection, although its reliability and mobility were less impressive; Other disadvantages were high cost, long production time (2000 man-hours), and difficulty in field maintenance.

The Wehrmacht was the combined armed forces of Nazi Germany from 1935 to 1945. It consisted of the Heer (army), Kriegsmarine (navy) and Luftwaffe (air force). The designation "Wehrmacht" replaced the previously used term "Reichswehr" and became a manifestation of the Nazi regime's efforts to rearm Germany beyond what the Treaty of Versailles allowed. After the Nazis came to power in 1933, one of Adolf Hitler's most explicit and bold moves was the creation of the Wehrmacht, a modern, offensively capable military force that fulfilled the Nazi regime's long-term goals of regaining lost territory as well as conquering new territory. and dominance over their neighbors. This required the restoration of conscription, as well as enormous investment and defense spending in the arms industry.

The Tiger I was a World War II German heavy tank that operated from 1942 in Africa and the Soviet Union, usually as part of independent heavy tank battalions. It gave the German Army its first armored fighting vehicle, which mounted the 8.8 cm KwK 36 gun (derived from the 8.8 cm Flak 36). From August 1942 to August 1944, 1,347 examples were built. After August 1944, production of the Tiger I was discontinued in favor of the Tiger II. While the Tiger I has been called an outstanding design for its time, it has also been called overdesigned, using expensive materials and labor-intensive manufacturing methods. The Tiger was prone to certain types of track failures and breakdowns, and its flight range was limited due to its high fuel consumption. It was expensive to maintain, but was generally mechanically reliable. It was difficult to transport and was vulnerable to immobilization when dirt, ice and snow froze between its overlapping and alternating road wheels in the Schachtellaufwerk manner, often wedging them tightly. This was a problem on the Eastern Front during the muddy season and during periods of severe cold.

The Hummel was a self-propelled gun based on the Geschützwagen III/IV chassis and armed with a 15 cm howitzer. It was used by the German Wehrmacht during World War II from the beginning of 1943 until the end of the war. Its artillery designation was Sd.Kfz 165. The Hummel was developed in 1942 after the need for mobile artillery support for tank forces was demonstrated during the invasion of the USSR.[1] Self-propelled artillery, already in service with the Wehrmacht, turned out to be ineffective.

The Panzerkampfwagen III, commonly known as the Panzer III, was a medium tank developed in the 1930s by Germany, and was used extensively in World War II. The official German ordnance designation was Sd.Kfz. 141. It was intended to fight other armoured fighting vehicles and serve alongside and support the similar Panzer IV, which was originally designed for infantry support. However, as the Germans faced the formidable T-34, more powerful anti-tank guns were needed, and since the Panzer IV had more development potential with a larger turret ring, it was redesigned to mount the long-barrelled 7.5 cm KwK 40 gun. The Panzer III effectively swapped roles with the Panzer IV, as from 1942 the last version of Panzer III mounted the 7.5 cm KwK 37 L/24 that was better suited for infantry support. Production of the Panzer III ceased in 1943. Nevertheless, the Panzer III's capable chassis provided hulls for the Sturmgeschütz III assault gun until the end of the war.

The Panzer I was a light tank produced by Nazi Germany in the 1930s. The name is short for the German Panzerkampfwagen I. Design of the Panzer I began in 1932, and mass production began in 1934. Intended only as a training tank to familiarize the German Army with the concept of armored warfare, the Panzer I saw action in Spain. during the Spanish Civil War, in Poland, France, the Soviet Union and North Africa during World War II, and in China during the Second Sino-Japanese War. Experience with the Panzer I during the Spanish Civil War helped German tank forces invade Poland in 1939 and France in 1940. By 1941, the Panzer I chassis design was used as the basis for tank destroyers and assault guns. Throughout its service history, there have been attempts to modernize the Panzer I, including from foreign countries, to extend the life of the design. He continued to serve in the Spanish armed forces until 1954.

So far, humans have been lucky not to face global catastrophes like those that wiped out 99% of all other species. Humans have become the most powerful species on this planet, but it is easy to forget that the forces that destroyed many of our ancestors are still at work. In this final program, "Catastrophe" describes key events over the past 75,000 years. During this time, people were exposed to a supervolcano that almost devastated entire regions of the Earth. The ensuing Ice Age, which covered Europe in kilometer-thick ice sheets, is said to have prevented the development of a complex civilization, and the ensuing cosmic catastrophe is believed to have changed the lives of the first inhabitants of North America forever.

Panzer, German full Panzerkampfwagen, a series of battle tanks used by the German army in the 1930s and 40s. The six tanks of this series comprised virtually all of Germany's tank production from 1934 until the end of World War II in 1945. Tanks provided striking power to German panzer (armored) divisions throughout the war.

Dinosaurs became the rulers of the Earth about 230 million years ago, eventually dominating all other species and pushing mammals into the shadows. But 65 million years ago, their planet was rocked by another massive event when, seemingly out of nowhere, the mighty dinosaurs were wiped off the face of the Earth. But without this devastating disaster, people would not be here today. This film explores the clues that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs and ultimately led to the evolution of humans. Cutting-edge scientists, paleontologists and geologists are looking into what could be causing it and charting the story behind the widely held theory that Earth has once again been struck by a deadly asteroid.
