Yeah honestly this is pretty shameful. Ukraine has the right to blow up literally all of Russia's refineries.

Not to give away military secrets but there's nothing uncommon about this sort of thing.

Knowing swiss approach to fortifications there is either a concrete bunker or steel turret inside this shack. Everybody knows they've mined and fortified the gently caress out of their mountaints with enormous supplies of everything + infinite fresh water from mountain springs. But the exact extent of how much they burrowed is a state secret and is probably 10 times more than anyone would reasonably expect.

We are so good with secret bunkers that we frequently have to ask the Germans if they know where they are, because nobody knows anymore.

Also those pictures are from WWII „Reduit“ mountain fortresses. Usually there‘s tunnels and poo poo going from gun points to bunkers etc.

The Swiss Army does not have the funds to keep this poo poo alive anymore and is selling some of them, so if you want a bunker in the Swiss Alps, go ahead and buy one.

I know of at least two companies who bought bunkers, built datacenters and now sell „bunker cloud“ services.

Reading up about the reduit plan that the Swiss had in WWII is fun by the way. The tactic was, let the Nazis have the civis while the army is hunkered down in mountain bunkers. Way to defend your population you loving clowns.
Up to this day we have many idiots who believe this strategy and not the gold and weapon trading was the reason we were not attacked.

Sorry this turned into a bit of a rant but the last election and general situation here is poo poo.
I work next to a Rheinmetal factory/r&d center and frequently see the radar/targeting modules for Gepards and similar equipment being used/tested there. 2-3days a week I basically see the stuff we‘re not sending to Ukraine and it‘s a sharp reminder how dumb politics are.

It's my understanding that some of those Suisse guns are more or less stationary and aimed at specific mountain passes and other choke points. You only need to fire at one location to seal some valleys entirely.

Those Swiss guns are indeed presighted and have necessarily limited traversal due to terrain.

They are also a relic. Switzerland is completely encircled by friendly nations. Any hypothetical scenario where one of those nations tries to invade Switzerland is set far enough in the future that anything installed in those emplacements is obsolete.

You should send an E-Mail to the Swiss parliament about this, they ought to know we already lost a possible war before it even starts because everyone close enough to attack us is way stronger or Lichtenstein.

Maybe those Putin enablers will finally decide that exports are fine if they go to NATO aligned nations.

I'm confused. There seem to be two different helicopters that went down. An Mi-24 was allegedly shot down over the Black Sea by friendly fire (can't fly here, this is BUK country). The other is a Ka-27 which was allegedly shot down over Crimea by AFU. Are we talking about two incidents or one being confused for another?

From what I've seen it could be one or the other, we don't really have exact confirmation. But a chopper did go down, and was confirmed on Russian telegram channels as well.
