Wonder what would happen if he flew to a country he thought was an ally but because they're heavily sanctioned by the US they instead arrested him and handed him over in order to get sanctions lifted.

Twitter thread talking about anti-tank missiles. I didn't know that the NLAW was using a different style of charge to the more common missiles. Also, the video of a missile blasting through 500mm of armour and then a car like it was nothing was insane. I knew they were powerful, I just didn't realise they were that powerful.

The writing on ammunition thing is weird. Also, weren't they banned from being posted in the thread?

I saw one the other day and it was in response to a picture posted on Russian social media of a young girl holding a sign asking for more ammo for her dad, it was a shell with "for daddy" written on it.

Artillery shell lands close enough for the people to get splashed, but since it landed in water it doesn't kill them. (Or maybe a dud?)

You know what's mad about that? Someone got a photo of it landing. You can tell that there was actually a boat that was even closer to where that shell landed.



You know what's even madder? Someone got a photo of the photo being taken.

Look, they said there were 50,000 Russians troops in Bakhmut, they never specified if they were alive or not.

Do they have two more whole divisions to spare? That's low end 24,000 men, and their lines are already stretched ridiculously thin.

What is this "DEFEND THIS RUBBLE AT ALL COSTS!" idiocy front Russia?

Just abandon your completely undefendable rubble pile and get out of Himars range, the gently caress are they doing?

I think it because Bakhmut is all the Russian media talked about for ages, its their only "victory" in the whole thing. If they lose it now it really shows that they're hosed and can never win.

Tatarigami has a good thread here about a captured document detailing the vatnik tactics on the Zaporizhzhia front. Going over those tactics, it's probably just as well that Russian methods of centralized command are as ineffective and inefficient as they are.

Doesn't matter how good a thread it is, people without Twitter accounts can't read anything but the first tweet you linked.

I know zero about boots, why are they so bad? I mean, they LOOK like they are just all for show, but what specifically about them makes them so shite?

They're a lot bigger than your foot, so you don't truly know where your feet are with them on so its a lot easier to trip over things. And I'm talking about walking about a club or just getting in and out of your house. Imagine running around an active warzone, you'd be constantly face planting.

I've seen a fair few cars with Ukrainian plates where I am recently (SW UK) and they've pretty much all been normal cars, nothing fancy. Seems to have gone up a fair bit recently too.

Hope they like the amount of Ukranian flags etc that are flying around the place.

Same for the couple I've seen in the NW, I think the first one I saw was a fairly old people carrier/minivan, hardly a luxury car.

That barely scratched it, you could fix it and have it blown up again. Probably wouldn't even need to put it somewhere else.
