I have doubts about the RKG-1600s they sometimes drop, but when it's the "normal" handheld F-1 grenades, I could see that bouncing off chicken wire like this, at least when they're lower altitude.
lol at the chances of all of them getting outfitted like this though.
I feel like this would only help in making impromptu aerial explosions when Ukraine inevitably glues hooks and spikes to the grenades to make them catch onto the canopy.

...so they should totally do this.

(worst. snipe. ever.)

Hungary just OK'd Finland's NATO membership.

IIRC it's now just waiting for the final OK from Turkish national assembly. The foreign relations committee and Erdogan already okayed it, but it still needs to go to the floor.

Yes. And the Finnish parliament already voted about it month ago, and the president Niinistö signed the laws last week. Literally the moment the Turkish national assembly has its vote and if it passes as promised, we can drop the paperwork to the Washington and make it official. If it happens on Wednesday by the weekend Finland is in.

Sweden is still totally unknown, "during this year" is the best guestimate our news agencies give.

Two new, somewhat short, intercepted calls. One is of a woman calling her husband talking about another soldier who pinched an abandoned generator from a village they were in. Her husband asks, bemusedly, "why would we need one when we already have power?" and the wife justifies it by saying that's what Russians do with left behind stuff. Second call is between two Russian soldiers talking about a shakedown being conducted among the mobilized by their commandant. So they started hiding whatever they have or looted just to make sure nothing gets taken from them, along with mention of heavy drug and alcohol abuse.

you send a moblik to the front, collect a death benefit in sausage, his commanding officer confiscates the inner meat portion and ships back the discarded sausage casing along with an official document declaring him to be missing/awol rather than Kia so you aren’t owed so much more as a single ruble throw that rind in a pot of water and baby, you got a stew going!

it's a shaped charge, so it won't necessarily kill you if you throw it eight feet into a tree branch

It's almost like motivated, trained men who have to use these systems to save the lives of their comrades and the civilians who they must protect, who also have previous battlefield experience, who do almost nothing but train every day, will learn faster than idiot propagandists like you think.
