A robot that can deftly climb over terrain is extremely expensive cutting-edge tech that barely exists yet, but pennies worth of electronics can out-hear us trivially.
Even in WW2 when people with no computers were desperately trying any horseshit idea they used gigantic ear horns but not acutely hearing animals which makes me think the idea doesn't work. At least I think that was the case, I would be thrilled to hear about some 1940 squad of trained plane-hearing dogs.

>>64325049
Iran is actually good at EW so the beautiful precision weapons I pay precious tax money for have pretty sad accuracy compared to strikes in Gaza or Lebanon where they GPS guide the bomb to the exact foundation pillar they want to collapse. I think probably they attacked something that wasn't a stable and hit a stable, as far as I know the Jews don't blood sacrifice horses for purim or some shit, why wouldn't they save the JDAM for a refugee tent or something.

There's a reason horses don't exist on the battlefield anymore. If the russians really are this desperste and stupid I guarantee these horses are just ones they commandeered from people and have absolutely no training for even hunting conditions.

There's some (idiotic) logic to the bikes when you don't care about casualties and are out of better vehicles, but there's no reason to use a horse over a bike unless there are either terrain challenges (almost certainly not the case in Eastern Ukraine) or you are somehow out of bikes too, which would be an almost impossible to believe situation.

The horse anus is a marvel of evolutionary biology.
Like most mammals, rhythmic contractions of the bowels move the feces up to the end of the gut tobe expelled.
What sets the horse anus apart is the bafflingly complex autonomic contractive motion of 4 muscular rings which function like sphinctoral guillotine. As the feces is squeezed out, the rings expand and the outermost ring is retracted into an interior skinfold resembling the human foreskin, leaving an interstital tissue fold to open air.
The two inner rings then contract, and push apart, severing the horse feces cleanly, allowing to drop free as the outer ring folds back through the interstital flap, creating a intrinsic wiping motion with the fourth ring as it contracts back into the horses rectum.
This advanced biological mechanism is so effective that many industrial companies have copied Nature's design for self- cleaning viscus liquid dispensers housed within complex machinery.

>>64326056
The main advantages of a horse - it's alive (can cross obstacles easily and intelligent enough to not run into them... most of the time), are also it's main disadvantages - it's alive (needs fuckton of food, fixing it is really problematic and is intelligent enough to not want to die).
>>
Only an idiot would mount 2 men on a single horse. You only do that in emergencies and even then you try to avoid it if at all possible. It's too much strain on their hips.
Of course this isn't very surprising. Slavs have always been poor horsemen. Poles are the only exception to this rule.

>>64325049

>>
>>64324955
context:

The commander of a Russian assault unit has decided to train up some actual cavalry in an attempt to escape the deadlock both sides are suffering from. Modern, drone-supported ISR and modern mines - smart and magnetic, 3d-printed - make it quite impossible to mass mechanized or armored forces for assaults.

The slow trickle of three-man assault teams attacking three-man strongpoints prevents maneuver warfare and breakthroughs. The only solutions are attrition, or... exotic new capabilities (that, sometimes, are rediscovered old capabilities).

Turkey has some mounted village guards. They were mainly used to take supplies to some more remote outposts. After the 1980 coup, the junta settled some Kirgiz around Van.

a fellow fa/tg/uy. I salute thee, and hope for your continued prosperity. I think the board culture started going to shit when that witchhunt for quest threads began around 2015. Newfags who couldn't figure out how to find the catalogue endlessly bitching until they created a dead on arrival separate board for one of the only creative outlets that was unique to /tg/ created a death spiral for board culture where general threads also choked out the first page, but for a more creatively bankrupt and braindead audience similar to /v/ with an order of magnitude less posters.

A shame, really. We used to have some really fun off topic threads too, but jannies are bored and boring people inherently, they really missed the forest for the trees

Anyways, Always bet on Duke n shit

Are you an idiot? Quests were all over the place until the other boards cried enough to get them confined to /tg/, and the low-quality influx gave them enough mass to become annoying.
