  1. They essentially threw their professional military into the wolves. Plus we kind of publish our tactics in manuals. Pdfs are available.

  2. Russia should have respected Ukraine's sphere of influence and not engaged in CSTO expansion.

  4. ​ @benjauron5873  A true gun nut would know that even combat arms don't get that much trigger time. The National Guard sniper team sometimes beats the Army and Marine sniper teams simply because they have more time to dedicate themselves to their passion.

  5. Clearly you've never met a brass goblin. Some wet tumbling and a run through a roll sizing die restores most shells.

  7. Wagner, Redut, etc removed military service from their entry requirements due to manpower issues.

  9. It's not blind fire. You can watch the videos, the nail what they aim at. Russia has so much, they need to use Shaheds lol.

  10. But modern doctrine is to win with missiles alone, because if you go for guns the chances of eating a missile are too high. High off boresight missiles with all aspect seekers make gunnery extremely risky.

  11. Train how you fight. Which means having to do it drunk and naked.

  13. ​ @Davidrodriguez-vb1zk  you don't get given the keys to armories simply from being a service member. If a single M4 is missing from inventory they put the base on lockdown.

  17. ​ @jameshenderson4876  Not a weird reference. He's calling the USMC "Nazis" through subtext. Freaking Russell Brand made that joke at a fashion show once.

  18. ​ @jacmeg1845  Even a person who isn't smart can eventually learn. It may require time and different techniques, but it's possible to break down knowledge to the point a 5 year old understands it. People who use the internet like that are sitting on the sidelines to double-down in conspiracies in every event that interests them, and claim it's a distraction from another conspiracy when it doesn't.

  19. 1) Not only has Putin said it himself in 2014, the Hostomel gameplan was the same as the invasion of Czechoslovakia invasion. The runway was shelled which nullified the transports landing more troops and armor. 2) Not a fact check. 3) Yeah just like the number killed during Kherson. Yadda yadda. Meanwhile the Pentagon's leaked estimate had almost 3x more KIA on the Russian side. 6) It is a strange argument. Missiles fired from anywhere have a 30 min delivery time. Submarines can get close to coast. The Baltics are already NATO. The red line has been crossed a long time ago. Why is Ukraine special? Also, the US did not invade Cuba over the missiles, it just handled it diplomatically with the Soviet Union. 7) Russia's economy is now supporting a war rather than benefiting the people. They're not decoupled from the West, they're forced to beg for sanctions busting to get the much needed western parts. The global south? Even Brazil and South Africa are wishy-washy on Russia and Australia is opposed to them. There goes the Southern hemisphere. 8) Russian-built air defense has been neutralized by the US before. Ukraine has Soviet aircraft which were never made to hunt down defenses. Russia's air defense works against air forces that lile Russia did not invest in air power as much. 9) AT4s are common in militaries worldwide. Mexican cartels are known for pulling weaponry out of armories. That question is still a waste of time because anyone who's been informed knows cartels had heavy hardware for decades prior to the Ukraine war. 10) Because Hersh can't find anyone to publish his lies. He got the ships wrong, the aircraft wrong, the air mix used in diving wrong, he claimed that Jans Stoltenberg had been working for NATO since he was 16. It was pure fantasy, like bad Tom Clancy knockoff literature. And it wasn't ignored, it was reported by other outlets. But nobody can confirm it because, as you know, the prose is full of lies.

  21. ​ @willmannn  "move on and get a life" says person who had nuclear rage about this issue back in 2021 lul You people were the ones who wouldn't want to just move on and let go. Still waiting for that winter of d3ath and darkness or whatever the Pres said in that speech. Ominus stuff, really.

  22. A big issue is that the water turning into steam would cool the engine, essentially robbing the energy the alcohol puts into the compressed air. Water/methanol injection is a thing. But it is done ahead of the combustion section, so that evaporative cooling cools the compressed air.

  23. The platform you're probably talking about is not meant for theaters where air defenses are active.

  24. ​ @LastEarBender  The verbal agreement was about EAST GERMANY. If you remember, there was a time period where the USSR had not collapsed, and the future of Germany was up in the air as reunification would merge a NATO and Warsaw Pact nation. There was a Moscow proposal to leave Germany as neutral but the NATO thing was going to happen - what the US assured was that instead of NATO advacing towards a new Iron Curtain in the border of Germany and Poland, the NATO bases would remain in West Germany and East Germany territory would only have Bundeswehr bases. If you think about it, it would make zero sense for the US to promise to not expand into Poland and the Baltics/Ukraine since Poland was Warsaw Pact and the others were part of the Soviet Union. Not only would the US not ask for "hostile" nations to join, they also wouldn't ask to join as they were all controlled by a Party that had to answer to Moscow. The promise only makes sense in EAST GERMANY. Curiously even though NATO has taken in members from the East the NATO bases are still in the West Germany side. To this day NATO has not built additional bases in East Germany.

  25. They tried it in the first day of the war and missed half the shots. Also, runways can be repaired in less than a day.

  26. ​ @sixgunsymphony7408  the US tested the 30mm against M48 tanks (to serve as T-55 analogues) and achieved very few penetrations. Drones carry a significant warhead and the pilot and pick and choose where to hit. An A-10 pilot would have to weave through terrain, dodge incoming fire, and aim at a tank 2500-2000 ft away with his naked eye.

  30. There's plenty of video. And aftermath photos. Look man, you're either trolling with denial, or you're not used to the dark corners of the internet.

  31. F-16s are extremely common, Gripens were not an export success. Old Saabs were cars made by engineers for engineers, GM was the beginning of the end for their automotive division.

  32. The issue is that Delta would be wasted in the frontlines. Russia fell for the special forces meme, and lost high quality personnel in mundane attrition battles. Lindybeige has a several part interview with a British man who fought Russia in Ukraine. He did it out of his own volition and technically the British government disavows going to Ukraine to fight but they're also not criminally prosecuting anyone.

  35.  @DeNihility  Aircraft can be manufactured in lots. For example, there's F-16s which are newer than the oldest F-35s.

  37. If you have no thermometers with Fahrenheit you have to use the Celsius readout. No matter how uncomfortable you are with Celsius, if you're asked the temperature and you're holding a thermometer with a °C readout, you're answering in °C instead of trying to convert it to °F in your head. If the road signs are in km he's not going to use miles either. It's not about comfort, he literally doesn't have the information about miles.

  38. The A-10 has good turning abilities but dogfighting also happens in the vertical plane. A fighter jet pilot who knows what he's doing will not outturn the A-10 horizontally, he'll use the vertical climb abilities.

  39. ​ @BusesAreFatCars  bruh Russia did to Ukraine what Britain did to Ireland. The separatist in Eastern Ukraine are basically the UVF.

  42. Cope. They made a line towards Kiev and tried to use Hostomel to land troops outside the city. The Russians killed the Russian speakers by forcing them into conscription and using them as meat shields.

  45.  @sykessaul123  But it didn't. The US, UK, Australia (not even in the North Atlantic) and Poland (small amount of troops) were part of the invasion force. Most of NATO didn't care for the Iraq war, France famously stood against it. It's not a technicality, NATO flat out refused to take part and one of the biggest contributors to the US lead coalition isn't even NATO. Serbia can arguably be called defensive too, because peacekeeping forces were routinely held hostage and threatened with artillery if they did not allow genocide to be conducted in the area.

  48. ​ @sixgunsymphony7408  Close means the friendly troops are in close contact with the enemy. You can drop munitions from anywhere to do CAS.

  49. A-10 doesn't have A-A radar. It's got a cannon and a refueling port in the nose, where do you put the radar? It has a radar ALTIMETER, is that what you mean?
