Shaman Tank Spec posted:Once again the projection is insane. Can't even comprehend that some country might be able to produce large quantities of weapons without 90% of the budget getting stolen to finance someone's summer cottage. "That's what I'd do, so everyone else must too!" lets not kid ourselves. That's exactly whats happening, its just the money is going to Raytheon execs and retired military "consultants" the difference is; USA just accepts paying 10x as much to build in the graft and this is tolerated so long as the actual planes/tanks/whatever actually gets delivered.

Also the gear is actually good. Like the F35 got memed to hell and back during procurement but people still act like it’s a shitbox and not one of if not the best planes flying atm. A fleet of armatas getting delivered? I doubt they change much.

Not sure if we should be trusted with Article 5. Apparently, a missile crashed in Poland in November and was only discovered in April.

I am back from the copium mines with another load. I can stop posting these if people understandably don't want to read the words of propagandist voenkors but the malding and seething is funny Russians admitting to stealing more children: WarGonzo forwarded from Anna Kuznetsova posted:
And some amazing angry cope: WarGonzo posted:The hotter it is at the front, the louder the voices from sofas and other high-expert offices. It turned out that everyone around us knows what the Ukrainian offensive should really be like and what it should not be (except for the military correspondents, of course), everyone knows who actually has how much ammunition (except for Prigozhin, of course), but how is it being conducted the work of aerial reconnaissance and how difficult and dangerous it is, and at what distance from the front line is also known to everyone who is engaged in real politics in expensive Moscow restaurants, where analytical calculations are written about the PR campaigns of front-line deputies. Rybar still falling for the attack on Belgorod lmao: Rybar posted:Two days ago, the entire Russian Telegram was discussing a possible attack of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Belgorod from Kharkov . There was a transfer of equipment and demonstration actions along the border. Rybar astonished by the capabilities of the MALD lmao: What the gently caress is a dummy missile?? posted:For the second day in a row, strikes are being made on Lugansk . Today, the republic admitted the obvious: the strike was delivered by Storm Shadow missiles. We fuckin told you so posted:So, in connection with the already repeated unhindered enemy missile strikes using Storm Shadow missiles, we want to officially send a big hello to all those who just a couple of days ago were engaged in telling self-soothing fables about how we can and will shoot everything down. cope and seethe harder lol

Hahaha watching Rybar slowly come to the conclusion that the aircraft were downed by friendly fire is one of the funniest things I've ever seen on this stupid platform and it finally sinks in:

Icept posted:fast translation or best idiom ever? I think in the last year-plus we'd have seen "hat throwing" before, so I'm going with either a weird translation artifact, or it's a new idiom. Either way, I like it.

Icept posted:fast translation or best idiom ever? The original phrasing was мы впереди паровоза (my vperedi parovoza) and literally means "ahead of the locomotive", but the colloquial meaning is closer to "don't get ahead of ourselves" "throwing your hat" is a colloquialism similar to a decision made out of desperation, like tearing shirts is used to express despair and dismay. I'll try to keep those context clues intact for future translations (I am also looking forward to fatherboxx coming in here to tell me why i'm wrong, every time he shows up and corrects me I'm grateful for learning something new or being corrected on something I was taught)

I just saw a video of Ukrainians taking in a captured POW that was asked how he ended up in the RU army, and he replied that he got sent to the frontlines by a court that gave the choice of paying an extremely large debt in alimony to his ex-wife or become a mobik. That's pretty bleak lol Edit: Geraschenko is reporting that the Russians lost a third Mi-8 today but no details on if that one was also friendly fire or not.

It is still unknown whether this is blue-on-blue (red-on-red?) or Ukrainian strikes. An interesting possiblity is that after the Patriot site came online in Kyiv, they moved one of the S-300 batteries that formerly protected it right up to the border. All the targets shot down were flying high enough that a S-300 radar placed cheekily on a hill should be able to paint them and get hits ~50km away. If they did this, it will end soon, because the S-300 battery near the border would be really vulnerable and either Russians take it out with a Lancet or something, or Ukraine moves it back out to protect it.
