Zippy the Bummer posted:why are they doing that beach stuff? if it is makework to show superiors/someone up the chain that "something" is being done, is that meant to be passable work? someone must be looking at it and saying "yes, good". who would that someone be and why It basically is just make work, combined with a healthy dose of corruption. Someone's getting paid to do this, and the commanding officers in charge are getting healthy kickbacks into their pocket. The same corruption even extends to soldiers' pay and maintenance, with the numbers of actually available troops being nowhere near what the company/BTG/regiment's strength should be. Strelkov recently complained that one such company who he did some fundraising for apparently had less than half its strength on paper, because most of the people who were supposedly on its rolls didn't even exist (in his words, he used the term dead souls). The irony is that they're afraid of an amphibious assault coming from somewhere, when in reality Ukraine doesn't have that kind of capability. The most that could be done would be an attempt to cut off supplies to the peninsula. The only defenses on the Crimean peninsula actually worth the name are present in pre-existing measure near Sevastopol, Simferopol, and the assorted air bases, military bases, and temporary staging points/logistics hubs, and the ones that were recently built worth anything were in Perekop isthmus and Armyansk, because they're located near the entrance to Crimea itself. The rest are all copes that are poorly built, and according to the head of Rusich (neo-nazi mercenaries) both these and the ones in Zaporizhzhia oblast aren't capable of offering serious resistance to a determined enemy while pointing out where the contractors who built them (actual civilians with no instructions!) had messed up.

i suppose i am really wondering if anyone high up in the russian command sees this stuff (pictures / video of dumb bullshit like the above). are they aware of it but dont care, or are they not aware? rhetorical question, it doesnt really matter i guess, but i do find it strange and interesting. it makes me wonder what the russian higher command actually does care about (besides their lives and presumably money). what is going on in their brains? edit Telsa Cola posted:Did not watch the video and did not serve in a military but basically every military is famous for having people do absolutely bullshit makework to kill time, so it could easily be that. yeah it is probably this. its probably seen as a good use of time by the higher ups

They're probably getting a cut of the costs, which is to say, they're aware of it, but don't really give much of a toss except to line their pockets.

I got a cousin by marriage who was so loving dumb he got an asvab waiver during the surge for no score since he had a break down during the test and only signed his name. Anyways I talk to him from time to time and he was part of a Stryker unit and got left behind when the unit deployed to Iraq. His job was to paint rocks on the edge of roads reflective white. A few years later he got left behind again when the unit deployed to Afghanistan. Same job.

I can't talk about it much, but I can tell you I was responsible for securing and designating mission critical geological formations for follow-on strikes that allowed for the implementation of rapid infrastructure deployment allowing for strategic advancement of national security goals.

Whatever happened to grover anyway?

These guys aren't going to kickstart a revolution by shelling an minor border village and even less so by mining its cemetery (which is also a war crime, I'm pretty sure), so I think the smart move for Ukraine would be to disarm and disband the group.

Sighting of one of the Seaking helicopter donated by the UK https://twitter.com/BBCJLandale/status/1646430739246751744 Video says two have been donated, but at the time it was quoted as three. Perhaps the third is still being prepared or an issue was found; they're not exactly new... edit: longer version with less poo poo compression. Also explains the third one is being prepped.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k__o8H31dh8 Pablo Bluth fucked around with this message at 12:24 on Apr 13, 2023 |

I'm the smartest man in the room, I think, as I take pictures of top secret documents and upload them to discord. Should I have taken the time to crop the images so my room isn't in the background? Nah, that takes too much time, and these racist jokes aren't going to write themselves.

T-90M and the latest T-70B3 and T-80BVM's are the latest and greatest, and I'd assume all of them have been similarly imported to the petting zoo and likely already ended up parked on firing ranges for live fire testing like the T-80Us the UK bought through a shell company in the 90's.
