The winning topic of our August Patreon poll is UK vs France: Nuclear war!
Interesting fact - our first video was the same pair, but with conventional weapons.
What will happen when things go nuclear?
In other news, our new poll is ready!
Binkov looks into military forces of both countries. Analyzes their strengths and weaknesses and gives a possible outcome of a war. How much of an obstacle would Jordan be? What about Yemen? Who'd control the skies and who'd reign supreme on the ground? Watch the video to find out!

Hi, my dear Patron,
Our vacation went well, thank you very much. Some much needed R&R. But it was also somewhat unplanned, in the sense that we didn't really know each of us would take the same week off. So our release schedule shifted for one week. Which includes our upcoming video "What damage can Iranian military do to US?", to be released on 23rd of August. Should make a nic...

China and USA are two most powerful countries in the world. And with China catching up with the US economically and technologically, the Cold war rhetoric that we're seeing may indeed turn into a real Cold war. Decoupled economies, two blocs vying for power and an arms race. This is the first of the two videos on the future cold war, dealing with the possible allie...

Binkov's Battlegrounds goes on! Even though the summer vacations and family obligations are doing their best to steer us off the course! (one of our members even got married. Woo hoo!)
Here's what we have in store for you in the very near future. This Friday we should be publishing the first of our two future cold war videos. This one will explore the geopolitics...

This video explores the options of US military might against Iran. Not just the aerial campaign but a full scale ground invasion. A US led coalition of countries is modeled, but video also goes into the option of US going solo, if needed.
2019-07-05 11:45:34 +0000 UTC View PostJune poll ended recently and the winner was… well, this time we had to pick a winner. Two topics had the same number of votes. So what we're going to do is we will make both into a video. Eventually.
The official winner will be Saudi Arabia vs Israel. That one is going to go into production first. Then, a month or two (or something like that) after that goes public, you can expect the o...

The video explores the newest Chinese J-20 stealth fighter and the mainstay of US future fighter fleet, the F-35. How do they compare? Which one is better in air to air and air to ground ops? The video offers a detailed technical analysis and gives a final verdict.

Hungry for some news on Binkov's channel and other Binkov's interests?
Here's the rundown:
This Friday we hope to release J-20 vs F-35. Which may have a more catchy title, though. As YouTube algorithm doesn't really appreciate such simple titles. You might've noticed our thumbnails have gotten a bit more clickbait-y as well. It's unavoidable, sad...
The video discusses modern Leopard 2 tank as well as Tiger 2 of late WW2. It compares them and puts them in various tactical situations, analyzing how would a group of King Tigers do against a modern Leo2. How many Tigers could the Leo2 destroy? Watch the video to find out!
2019-06-07 09:14:17 +0000 UTC View PostOur May poll ended recently and the topic with the most votes was "USA invades Iran". So that's the one we'll be making in the coming months. Does it mean the other choices won't ever get made? It does not, but who knows when we'll get around to making those...
Also, a reminder: the June poll is up and running.

This Friday we're publishing Battle of the Java Sea. Animated account of the famous WW2 battle, where cruisers and Japanese Long Lance torpedoes played an important role.
It will also be the last of our pure historical videos for some time. That's not to say we won't
ever revisit them but for the time being, we will be concentrating m...

A fantasy match up to mark the start of the last season of Game of Thrones TV show! Plus, we like those WW1 planes, they really were elegant little things, for a more civilized age in the air. :) Who would win in an aerial dogfight between the largest of the Game of Thrones' dragons, the mighty Drogon, and the famed WWI ace, the Red Baron? Magical creature and fire breath against the icon...

Here it is in entirety though:
"Fellow Patreons! What’s your opinion on unrealistic match ups like ”Russia vs Canada” or ”France vs Spain”? Frankly, I think they suck. It’s a waste of Binkov’s talent to make those. It’s much more interesting with ”Iran...

As always, an update to keep you informed of our upcoming release schedule.
Next week we'll be releasing a Brexit war video. (if Brexit turned to war).
Could the UK hold on against the combined might of the EU? How could such
a conflict unfold? What sort of effects would the distance of various
EU countries have? Would Ireland be obliterated in ...
So, our first Patreon poll is done, and we have a winner! "Could Russia invade Canada? (If US was neutral)" is going to be a topic that we'll turn into a video, hopefully to be released sometime in late April or May.
Get ready for a new poll where Patrons will be able to pick another video, to be posted tomorrow!
