A .50 cal machine gun against a drone and in an urban environment? You serious? You do realise the potential stopping power of such rounds and how many you would have to fire off in order to guarantee a hit. Plus what about the danger to civilians of those missed rounds arcing back down eventually?
because russkies are to dumb to make anything. Only humans can create, they are animals, they can only destroy.
Just over a century of the government or single despot leaders controlling every aspect of their lives,24/7 propaganda all the while telling people about how they the Russians stufferd more than anyone else in WW2 all the while telling the population that Nato has surrounded them and are planning to invade them,
They have intelligent young people who have access to the outside world and Western media and culture,but yet they are happy to stay and live under putin in Russia, you would think at this stage the biggest number of refugees or asylum seekers in Europe would be Russian but Russians fleeing are an absolute minority,
They are rapidly becoming the new north Korea all living on a different planet to the rest of the world
Mod - Give it a rest with the personal digs everyone.
Imagine 34 years ago the Americans went public for first time with the B2 Stealth bomber,the second stealth bomber since the F117 ,next week they will be going public with the next Stealth bomber the B21 raider,
Meanwhile Russia is reliant on Iranian drones which are solely dependent on western component to fly ,
Christ, what an appalling display of bigotry and hatred. Here, go and educate yourself:

touched your nerve? and you, lecturing me about bigotry and hatred? Are you for real?!
Ukraine, the whole country is turning into a 3rd world country, time to go big, or stop shooting.
What can possibly escalate more or get any worse than it is?
You do know Russia is under investigation for 26000 war crimes?
If you cant stand someone cheering for Ukraine,find another thread,its got nothing to do with bloodlust to defend your own country.
Stop whining
Things were better on this thread before you peacemakers arrived
Do point out where i have displayed bigotry and hatred in this thread.
neither you nor any other rashist lovers are that important or interesting to me to waste time in lenghty discussions. Some posters like to engage in hopeless discussions wth useful idiots , not understaning that it only feeds the ego of trolls. I mostly read stuff, and try to guess after which number of post a newly registred or re-registered bot will be banned.
They (the pro-war guys) strike me as very "un-European" in their attitudes and values. I can't imagine any other country in Europe waging war on its much smaller neighbour in 2022 and their public being so relaxed about it all. This is not 60 or 80 years ago or whatever, where war seemed distant and remote - they can see the death and destruction in Ukraine on any social media outlet or TV channel, seven days a week.
So you can’t point out any examples as I requested of you.
”You peacemakers arrived”. Wow, is peacemaking a dirty dishonorable business in your view? In the event that Ukraine might engage in peace talks with Russia will you condemn them for it?
Thinking outside the box old ww2 flack would take these things out easily. I'm surprised it's not being used. Is it they all got destroyed ? obviously you would need to motorise them to make them travers and spin faster.
Are you referring to Gatling V the horde? 😅
@pcardin and @[Deleted User] you're still going at it despite the above Mod note which was posted barely 2 hours ago.
Drop it and move on with the discussion or you will be threadbanned
How do you know what they'd feel ?
Inaction by the west to the wiping out of Ukrainian civilian infrastructure that will cause a greater catastrophe than the war itself.
Clever tactic launching missiles every 10 days taking out what's repaired
Obviously weapons won't run out been externally supplied.
Mass exodus of Ukrainians will bring down its fighting force.
There will a massive refugee crisis around Xmas if it is not stopped.
If Russia gets Ukraine Europe is bunched, baltics and Poland may follow.
No, I want to see Moscow burn....call me out all you like.
An eye for an eye and all that.
Unfortunately scum like Putin only understand one thing...barbarism, for me, forsake the moral high ground and pound the orcs into the ground and by the looks of the clips earlier which showed that overall the russian public are pretty happy not just for the war to continue but want "stakes through Kyivs heart" etc etc than pound them into the ground aswell.
The world with the least amount of these mindless knuckle-dragging Neanderthals the better
It is if you actually listen to Zelensky and why Ukraine never will give up occupied land.
Why should Ukraine give up land that have the 2 largest gas reserves in Europe and minerals worth billions to Russia?
There is more to it than just occupied land
And after 8 years of war,i am pretty sure Ukraine will do anything in their power to take it back,with or without help from the west.
Who made this decision and are the supply lines going through Ukr?
Apologies.
I don't. But I'm earnestly hoping they wouldn't want something like that done in their name.
This is what you're up against though, They come up with these fantasy ideas because they seen it once in a movie so it must be true 🤣
There is fundamental difference. Russia is TRYING to bomb / freeze the life out of every aspect of Ukr - including the economic base AND ANYTHING ELSE THAT MOVES. Ukr did not ‘invite’ Ru in to level it or for that matter to do anything else to it.
Because of the above Ukr needs to do something to stop it AND to make sure that it is not repeated. One obvious option is to strategically bomb critical parts of Russia be it military installations, gas lines , power lines , major bridges , important manufacturing sites, ports, or whatever.
Any bombing carried out by Ukr on Russian territory would not be for retaliatory reasons BUT to STOP Russians slaughter of everything in Ukr
the above is as clear as the NOSE ON YOUR FACE
I do hope that Ukraine gets back all their land, I really do, but history is littered with examples where land grabs by one state off another has ended up badly for those attacked. Finland is a case in point.
How can it get any worse? Are you serious? Sorry for bursting your bubble but it can get a lot worse.
"If Russia gets Ukraine Europe is bunched, baltics and Poland may follow."
Baltics and Poland won't follow. Putin was sh!tting his pants last week when the missile landed in Poland. He knows that if he attacks any nato country its game over in days. IF and its a big IF, Russia gets Ukraine, their target would be another non-nato county.
What did they expect when these hospitals were storing large amounts of terrorist material to attack the Ru/Syrian army!!!!!!!!!
