Satellite images show row of destroyed Russian bombers after Ukrainian attack
New satellite images show the extent of the destruction against one fleet of Russian bombers during Ukraine's 'Operation Spider Web' attack on the Kremlin's air bases over the weekend. The images, shared by open source analysts, show nothing but dust and debris where more than a dozen of Russia's nuclear-capable bombers once stood on the runway at the Belaya airfield, one of at least four military bases struck by 117 Ukrainian drones on Sunday. John Ford, a research associate at the California-based James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies, said the images supplied by Capella Space, a satellite company, confirm Ukraine's achievement in destroying the fleet based in the Irkutsk region.

At least four strategic heavy Tu-95 bombers were also identified among the aircraft destroyed at the Belaya airfield. Advertisement 'It is clear that the attack on this airbase was very successful,' Brady Africk, an open source intelligence analyst, told Reuters after studying the images. 'The aircraft targeted in the attack were a mix of Tu-22 and Tu-95 bombers, both of which Russia has used to launch strikes against Ukraine.' 5 Similar before and after satellite images were released of the Ivanovo air base. 2025 Planet Labs PBC/AFP via Getty Images Advertisement 5 Kyiv touted the assault that saw 41 of Moscow's nuclear-capable bombers hit on Sunday. SECURITY SERVICE OF UKRAINE/AFP via Getty Images Africk noted that the Belaya airfield is littered with flat decoy aircraft, none of which appeared to fool the Ukrainian drones deployed at the military base. Similar satellite images were released of the attack on the Ivanovo air base, located 100 miles northeast of Moscow. In total, Operation Spider Web hit 41 warplanes in at least 4 different airbases, according to Ukraine's intelligence agency SBU, with pro-Moscow military bloggers describing the attack as 'Russia's Pearl Harbor.' Advertisement 5 Ukrainian officials dubbed the operation 'absolutely brilliant,' dealing a major blow to the bombers Moscow has been using to drop missiles over the border. SECURITY SERVICE OF UKRAINE/AFP via Getty Images Some 34% of Russia's Tu-95 bomber fleet, equipped to carry nuclear payloads, were reportedly wiped out, the SBU added. Andriy Kovalenko, an official on Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council, said that at least 13 of the targets were fully destroyed, with the damage estimated to have cost Russia $7 billion in losses. The Institute for the Study of War, a Washington-based think tank, said the daring attack will likely force Moscow to reconfigure its air defenses following the humiliating blow. 'The… operation will force Russian officials to consider redistributing Russia's air defense systems to cover a much wider range of territory and possibly deploying mobile air defense groups that can more quickly react to possible similar Ukrainian drone strikes in the future,' the ISW said.

A Q2 Earnings Call: Mixed Revenue Performance, Margin Pressure, and Strategic Updates
Life sciences tools company Agilent Technologies (NYSE:A) fell short of the market's revenue expectations in Q1 CY2025, but sales rose 6% year on year to $1.67 billion. Its non-GAAP EPS of $1.31 per share was 3.6% above analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy A? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Revenue: $1.67 billion (6% year-on-year growth) Adjusted EPS: $1.31 vs analyst estimates of $1.26 (3.6% beat) Adjusted Operating Income: $419 million vs analyst estimates of $409.9 million (25.1% margin, 2.2% beat) Revenue Guidance for Q2 CY2025 is $1.66 billion at the midpoint, above analyst estimates of $1.65 billion Management reiterated its full-year Adjusted EPS guidance of $5.58 at the midpoint Operating Margin: 18%, down from 23.1% in the same quarter last year Organic Revenue rose 5.1% year on year (-7.4% in the same quarter last year) Market Capitalization: $31.61 billion Agilent's second quarter results reflected broad-based growth across most end markets and geographies, with particular strength in China, India, and environmental testing. CEO Padraig McDonnell attributed the 6% year-on-year revenue growth to stable demand for core instruments, continued recovery in the biopharma segment, and robust performance in pathology and PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) testing. Management also highlighted progress in its digital ecosystem, noting a 12% increase in digital orders, and pointed to operational changes—including the Ignite transformation initiative—that drove early wins in pricing and procurement. While most end markets performed as expected, academia and government remained soft, and management described the macroeconomic and geopolitical environment as 'highly dynamic,' underscoring ongoing uncertainty. Looking forward, Agilent's guidance is shaped by ongoing tariff risks, a cautious approach to macroeconomic uncertainty, and confidence in its operational initiatives. Management maintained its full-year core growth and adjusted EPS outlook, citing the ability to offset incremental tariff costs through supply chain adjustments, pricing, and Ignite-driven efficiencies. CFO Bob McMahon noted, 'A combination of supply chain moves, surcharges, and savings will allow us to fully mitigate tariff costs by next year.' The company expects continued momentum in PFAS testing, accelerating growth in its CDMO (contract development and manufacturing organization) segment, and further gains from newly launched products such as the Infinity III LC system and Seahorse XF Flex analyzer. However, management cautioned that near-term growth may be uneven given the dynamic external environment and timing of customer orders. Management pointed to diverse geographic and product performance, with China and environmental testing outpacing expectations, while transformative operational initiatives helped offset mounting tariff pressures. China and India outperformance: China delivered 10% growth, benefiting from stable demand and a favorable Lunar New Year comparison, while India posted high-teens growth. Management opened its first India solution center to support local demand for advanced testing and regulatory compliance. PFAS testing momentum: Agilent saw more than 70% year-over-year growth in PFAS testing, driven by global regulatory expansion and product innovation. The company cited its Infinity III and 6495D systems as increasingly critical for customers seeking sensitive, robust PFAS detection in water, food, and industrial materials. Biopharma and CDMO progress: The NASD (Nucleic Acid Solutions Division) and BIOVECTRA businesses reported high single-digit and high teens growth, respectively. Management highlighted improved visibility on future orders, with the BIOVECTRA acquisition expanding Agilent's presence in GLP-1 and complex chemistries manufacturing. Operational transformation via Ignite: The Ignite initiative enabled enterprise-wide pricing, organizational streamlining, and procurement centralization, leading to over $130 million in expected profit contribution for the year. The company achieved full-year pricing realization targets within six months and projects $80 million in annualized savings from organizational changes. Tariff mitigation and supply chain agility: Agilent's tariff task force responded quickly to shifts in US, China, and EU tariffs by moving production, centralizing procurement, and implementing targeted price surcharges. Management expects to fully offset tariff impacts in 2026, with minimal net impact for this year despite potential new EU tariff increases. Agilent's outlook for the coming quarters hinges on successful tariff mitigation, continued product innovation, and steady demand in core end markets, balanced against macroeconomic uncertainty. Tariff mitigation and pricing actions: Management anticipates covering all incremental tariff costs in 2025 through a blend of supply chain adjustments, strategic pricing surcharges, and Ignite-driven procurement savings. The company expects these actions to fully neutralize tariff impacts by next year, though the evolving trade landscape remains a risk. Momentum in PFAS and CDMO segments: Agilent projects ongoing strength in PFAS testing, driven by expanding global regulations and the company's technology leadership. The CDMO segment (NASD and BIOVECTRA) is expected to deliver double-digit growth in the second half, supported by a healthy order backlog and accelerating commercialization of new manufacturing programs. Replacement cycles and product launches: The adoption of new instruments, notably the Infinity III LC system, is fueling replacement cycles across pharma, environmental, and food testing labs. Management highlighted higher attach rates for services and consumables, and expects sales momentum to build as customers upgrade aging systems over the next several quarters. In the coming quarters, the StockStory team will watch for (1) sustained momentum in PFAS testing and CDMO segment order growth, (2) evidence that Ignite-driven cost savings and pricing actions are offsetting tariff impacts and supporting margin stability, and (3) the pace of customer adoption for new instruments like the Infinity III LC system. Progress in these areas will be key to tracking Agilent's ability to navigate external headwinds and deliver on its operational commitments. Agilent currently trades at a forward P/E ratio of 19.1×. Is the company at an inflection point that warrants a buy or sell? The answer lies in our full research report (it's free).
