Rad Russian posted:French LGBT terrorists are expected to blow up several apartment buildings right before the election. Russian state TV will publish incriminating photos showing the base of terrorist operations - blueprints of the buildings next to a pile of stale baguettes and a copy of Sims 3. You know it’s not authentic because there isn’t a layer of cigarette ash covering everything.

In the case of TOWs it lets you do neat/crazy poo poo like fire away from a target and then bank in so they have a harder time finding where the shot came from.

norp posted:10km of fibre is going to either be very fragile or very heavy. Looking at it I’m going with fragile. Appears to be small diameter non-insulated fibre, which I guess makes sense since it’s going to be a one use item. They must have a system where it’s spooling out cable at the same rate as its movement, so they don’t need to worry about snags because there’s never tension in the cable. Seems to be a clever improvised system, though I imagine it adds a chunk of cost to the drone, so used in specific circumstances. Ubik_Lives fucked around with this message at 10:08 on Mar 8, 2024 |

Nice piece of fish posted:It really cannot be overstated how big a deal this is (locally). Like, this was a major policy goal for nordic politicians in 1949 and even with the post-WWII European situation a pan-nordic defence alliance just could not be cemented, despite the best efforts of our greatest leaders. Like it was Gerhardsen's biggest regret and failure. Its even crazier than that; Finnish YLE morning TV-show pointed out that this is first time since 1523 when all Nordic countries are at the same time part of the same alliance or union. So Putin sure did manage to achieve something historical, thats given.

Dick Bastardly posted:there's a drat wire just spooling out and dangling and dragging on the ground when this thing takes flight?? wtf That is how many TOW missiles work. There was a wireless version made by Raytheon as well though. I think there are some Spike misslies (Isreali missile system) that use a optical fiber too. It can work just fine so long as you're careful about the flight path of the missile, or in this case drone, so that it doesn't get hung up on something.

It's International Women's Day which is somewhat observed in the former Ostblok countries and among other traditions, male politicians annually miss the point and are sexist, creepy and so on. This is also true for Russia, but they are adding some stale Nazi Children, Kitchen, Church flavor to the mix too Putin Says Childbirth Is Women’s ‘Greatest Gift’ and ‘Purpose’ in Women’s Day Message quote:“You, dear women, are able to transform the world thanks to your beauty, wisdom and generous hearts, but, most importantly, thanks to the greatest gift that nature has given you — childbirth,” Putin said in a video address recorded at his official residence outside Moscow.    Don't ask about the domestic violence in Russia

Its a legacy thing from USSR. International women's day was one of those events that soviet system promoted to a major holiday, like May Day (International Workers' Day) to make new holidays to replace the major holidays observed by the previous regimes or by the west.

If you get hit by a wire guided missile just follow the wire back to the enemy and adopt a firm stance and stern voice to assert dominance.

Der Kyhe posted:Its a legacy thing from USSR. International women's day was one of those events that soviet system promoted to a major holiday, like May Day (International Workers' Day) to make new holidays to replace the major holidays observed by the previous regimes or by the west. Rhetorically (at least), it was supposed to be about a celebration of women not being manacled into domestic or menial labour roles by tradition or capitalism, but instead being as men in the communist ideal, i.e. both being human, freed from the yoke of state oppression. Which I can certainly get behind. It being metastisized into this perverted parody of the original purpose is just one more of the many repulsivities that this world has produced.

Interesting that they put the shortest women next to him, and the line up to our right goes back as it gets farter down. Guessing those women were just a little too tall for that bucket of poo poo in the middle.
