The 600 orcs watching her deliver this waffle on NYE soon found out it does.
You're right, it isn't a rocket. There's nothing being pushed "out" here, an internal turbine moves external parts for propulsion through seawater, so what you're saying isn't applicable here.
They sure have,and getting a foothold in African countries as well,and i wouldnt be surprised if they helped in the coup in Burkina Faso as well,and offcourse «helping» in Mali with wagner group.
Not surprisingly French special forces was told to leave as well
I smell Russian influence ala hybrid warfare
Absolutely, Wagner forces got cause trying to stage a war crime to be blamed on the french at the base they were using
Not seen it confirmed anywhere other than here ,
There was stuff talked about not released to the public,but this would suggest thia claim comes from a public source
US and China both launch on each other in this scenario also, doctrine is nobdy gets easy chance to be #1 when the dust settles. This is established as well documented.
Gotta love the attitude that because we haven't been in a nuclear war yet all the threat of it is all just fake! Escalate away! Absolute masterclass in logic as usual in this thread.
Anyone know how far these would be from combat ready if they've just completed first flight testing? One would have to assume taking out the Crimean bridge would be one hell of an introduction / advert for this new drone!
Another 2 orc planes and a chopper downed today.
It comes from a Telegram channel - Политика Украины ... Ukrainian Politics. Here is a translation of the full piece:
Political analyst Taras Zavgorodnyy said.
"The list is quite solid. Especially if you compare it with the supplies six months ago," the expert said.
He said that under the new US military aid package Ukraine will receive ammunition for HIMARS with a range of 150 km. This will allow Ukrainian troops to confidently control the exit from the occupied Crimea, through which the Russians deliver equipment and ammunition to their units in the south.
The political scientist also pointed out that Ukraine had been promised a lot of armoured personnel carriers.
He noted that this creates additional pressure on Germany on the issue of tanks.
The political scientist also recalled that Germany does not need the Leopard tanks themselves, but permission for other countries to supply them to Ukraine. After all, there are around two thousand German-made tanks in Europe, which are in service with the armies of NATO countries.
That is great news about the F16's. Once Ukraine get them the orcs won't be able to move any of their mechanized units in any number. It would be like shooting fish in a barrel for the Ukrainians.
Several years before they are in the field doubt they will see service in Ukraine,
There's a possibility they may never see action at all
Poor aul george galloways tankie conference just can't get a venue for some reason 😂
F16s vs Anti aircraft missles and manpads,,.
I think it offers upgrade over what they already have in capabilities and munitions but they would be limited to using them for specific missions ,it's an expensive aircraft to have shot down and a propaganda coup if a Russian missles brings one down
Looks like something is up in Ukraine
Bloody anglo Saxons can't be trusted not to invade Ukraine , imagine Anglo Saxsons being allowed to build Naval bases, next they will be allowing Vikings in
Almost certainly to do with the anti-corruption measures they've been engaged in as part of EU entry preparation. Multiple Regional Heads set to resign doesn't mean they're all corrupt of course, it could mean there's a few to be prosecuted and a reshuffle of others.
That's another for the list of laughable reasons for Russia's invasion.
I wonder if someone is compiling a list of all of them.
It could be it's own stand up comedy show ,
I heard tommy tiernan could be free
Nato Nazi satanists are trying to build naval bases. Imagine how serious it could get if someone actually attacked them? A massed air assault by the combined staff and student body of Hogwarts?
Major General Vadym Skibitskyi, Deputy Head of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, is convinced that the health of the aggressor's country president is being taken care of by the best Western doctors, which is why he is still alive.
Source: Skibitskyi in an interview with Delfi news agency
Quote from Skibitskyi: "Unfortunately, Putin is being treated by the best Western doctors, which is why he is still alive. If he was treated by Russian doctors, everything would be over faster."
If it's true, I'd love to know where and by whoom and how he gets there and back. Switzerland? The logistics and lack any specifics make me sceptical, but maybe it's true.
It answers a question I have been pondering, which is why are Putin's proto warlords fighting so hard with each other for influence and favour with him, if he's on his last legs and about to kick the bucket?
What he says is that it wont be the first or second......but could be the third.......Hiroshima - First, Nagasaki - Second, ????? - Third....that's what he means.
Also, they have a first use policy if there's a perceived "existential" threat to russia itself - What Putins version of "Russia itself" remains to be seen - does he see Crimea as "Russia itself" ? - I don't know - but if he does can he, in his twisted delusional mind justify a first strike policy ?
Countries worried about being invaded after this war is over should not be in the short term / intermediate term. Only Ru seem to be the only candidate and it will be TOO WEAK to attack anyone for a long time. So there should be no rush to build back up Their level of arms. In a hurryCan the other 92
Even better, they downed 3 Ka-52's
The Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed three Russian Ka-52 helicopters on the night of January 24.

Brilliant, lol.
That just made my morning,
I was getting worried looking at the poor Labrador
How did you get on at the north wall protests ?
I imagine it'd be nothing more than "pig iron" quality if they tried to melt it down
I believe I said that Germany will struggle to fill the hole left by Russian gas for years to come
Am I wrong?
They've done a good job on cutting back on usage of gas, but they are still well below the capacity they had pre-war, and as the German ministry of the economy have stated, years away from replacing that capacity with LNG. Gas usage in Germany has been curtailed massively compared to pre-war (curtailed across most of Europe, except Ireland where it increased 🙄) To ramp up heavy industry like the production of tanks (and all the ancillary industries it relies on) would be very expensive in the current climate with PPI up to 20% yoy.
Sounds like a purge of officials
Anti-corruption or fears of a coup?
Probably rooting out all the Russian quislings and sleepers Timmy.
No you are not wrong but you laid the pessimism on a lot stronger back then (March) as regards European energy supply & economy (+ the high likelyhood of concessions to Russia) if I recall. I remember calling it "defeatism".
There's a large war on, alot of things are going to be a "struggle" now, replacing Russian energy and re-arming Western Europe [as well as arming Ukraine to the teeth with Western weapons right up to aircraft at same time] are 2 of them.
Yes, it is possible urgency of the need may gain the US weapons companies "market share" in Europe (if its own companies cannot respond quickly enough to the needs). That is pretty much the fault of poor decisions of governments in Europe being exposed brutally by what has happened now rather than a conspiracy/US grand plan, similar to the problems with energy supply (too much reliance placed on Russia, and on external fossil fuels/energy supplies generally).
