where should you deploy a smoke screen?
The Iraqi's used to set off their smoke and drive the other way, so I can't recommend that.This seems to work though
>guy turning around to teach the others how to do itEgoraptor could learn a thing or two from him
>>64429040I refuse to believe this is real for the sake of my own mental health.
>>64429081ijust like to imagine what would we have seen if ww1/ww2 was televised/recorded like the ukraine war. would we see similar goofy shit in the eastern front or in the trenches?it's really wild
>>64429086>if ww1/ww2 was televised/recorded like the ukraine warSPEERWHERE ARE MY FUCKING SHELLS YOU SCHWEINEHUND
>>64429040
>>64429086This, war is nuts and we are only seeing just how nuts because there are cameras everywhere now.
>>64429093>GOERRING! HOTH!>WHERE IS THE FUCKING AIRLIFT?!
>>64429081To be fair to them, if you are driving as fast as the bike can go to avoid getting droned and some fucker sets the render distance to 5m, you'd probably end up crashing too when the bullshit noobtrap spawns at the end of the track that can only be avoided if you drive in one very specific place.
>>64429040Clown world, cartoon war
It's a road with good visibility, so it should have been enough to just put up some MPs or road cones.
>tanks are obsolete, bikes are the future
>>64429086yes. I recommend spike milligans war memoirs

>>64429040dis nigga was trying so hard to aura farm, emerging from the smoke on his bike and ate shit instead lmaooo
>>64429086The russians clearly haven't changed much, so I assume this was quite common on the eastern front.
>>64429584>aura farmKill yourself, faggot.
>>64429589I'm not gay, I just like to have gay sex and have cocks in my ass and suck dick and eat cum and get fucked in the ass with cum

>>64429040You can almost hear the wet crunching noise on the first and fourth guy.
>>64429040Serious answer: there are 2 main ways to use smoke.The main one is dropping a thick cloud directly on the enemy to blind them to your attack. You don't use it on your own troops to give concealment because that would highlight them against it (which is why movies like to do it). The other is basically obsolete today, although I suppose you could use it in some weird case like indirect fire with GPMGs: create a very thin haze of smoke over a wide area like a port to obscure your troops. This is the WW2 era use. It was very effective against the dumb bombs and propellor planes of the time and became a mandatory part of the military textbooks because it reduced enemy hit rates by up to 20-30%.

>>64430275This is probably the best video from this damn war.
>>64429409I've always assumed Catch 22 is at least partly documentary.
>>64430275
>>64429960I thought the main use for smoke these days was obscuring IR for armored vehicles. That's why they use WP for it still so much, the smoke it makes blocks IR very well

>>64429086According to one instance in ww1>german in Verdun start spamming explosives in one area of a fort>french guys need to get out so they can breath and so covered in soot the Germans think they’re African colonial troops>german soldier at the beginning of Verdun somehow got into a fort alone and starting eating with the French at breakfast
>>64432638>german soldier at the beginning of Verdun somehow got into a fort alone and starting eating with the French at breakfastholy kekgot a link?
>>64429086There is a documentary called Enemy at the Gates that you should watch
>>64432753There's a few stories of enemy soldiers over the various wars doing an eat & run in enemy chow lines. There was an incident or two in Korea of starving Chinese soldiers passing off as South Koreans. Or so legend goes. M*A*S*H did an episode on it, supposedly based on real events.
>>64429040maybe in this case?
>>64433273>getting close to 4 years of this war>still no spacing when walking as a group
>>64433283They get no training worth shit, there's no living memory in the Russian military for that sort of stuff and the people who should be explaining and enforcing correct field practice would usually be NCO's, which are practically extinct for all purposes. As well as junior officers, who ain't no fucking way going near the front lines!
>>64433273>hohols attacked the fellowship of the ringok thats it, i am now a kalibr missile
>>64429566Just look at the watermark. It's Rusich, one of the (failing) Azov-wannabe groups on the Russian side. Although its probably a matter of time until they get Motorola's for having "Sich" in their name which is purely Ukrainian.
>>64430390>main use for smoke these days was obscuring IR for armored vehicles>That's why they use WP for it still so much, the smoke it makes blocks IR very wellWP smoke by itself isn't IR opaque. It requires further ritual voodoo magicks from the MIC priests in their tchno-temples to obscure thermals.WP is just a very, very good source of smoke by itself, and they add onto that with additives, be it dyes for marine fun-time or chaff to cuck thermals.
>>64433480>hohols attacked the fellowship of the ringlotrposting is what I love best about this war.>>64433283What the other guy said. They go through people so fast there's very little institutional learning going on and any knowledge accrual is very slow and bloody. Doesn't help that Pootpoot sent in the instructors and military college staff into the war during the first summer.
>>64432638>>french guys need to get out so they can breath and so covered in soot the Germans think they’re African colonial troopsPottery.
>>64433229Turkish Brigade soldiers massacred South Korean soldiers, mistaking them for Chinese, before the battle of Wawon.South Koreans got bayoneted and clubbed to death by Turks.
>>64432753Capture of Fort Douaumont. This was like three days into the Battle of Verdun. The old fort was undermanned and expected to get smashed by german siege artillery, so the small garrisson was already preparing to evacuate it. A german reconaissance party had closed in on it, one NCO decided to try and go in after it seemed deserted. Guy found part of the garrisson crew having breakfast, locked them all into a side room and then just sat down and ate their food.IN the end, the fort was seized withotu a shot fired, which turned out to have been a real problem for the french because it turned out the thing was way less vulnerable to heavy artillery than they had expected. All in all, it took the French something like 100,000 casualties across various attempts to finally take it back.
>>64433539>lotrposting is what I love best about this war.We should do an LOTR style copypasta for the 3 day special military operation sometime
>>64433641>wecreate the meme you want to see in the wild
>>64433658lmao
>>64433611And in the end we lost it because some folks tried to brew coffee with a flamethrower.
>>64433767For a cup of joe? Worth it.
>>64433767Putting the ammo dump next to the kitchen was probably not the smartest architectural decision.
>>64432638>>64432753>>64433611>>64433767I'm dying thinking of some French historian discovering these facts and then quietly closing the book containing them and putting it in the farthest corner shelf they can find

>>64429040>charge of the blyat brigade
>>64433767>Apparently some of the soldiers tried to heat coffee using flamethrower fuel, which proved to be too flammable and spread to shells which were without caution placed right next to such environments.>A firestorm ripped through the fort, killing hundreds of soldiers instantly, including the 12th Grenadiers regimental staff.>Some of the 1,800 wounded and soot-blackened survivors attempting to escape from the inferno were mistaken for French colonial infantry and were fired upon by their comrades; 679 German soldiers perished in this fire.
>>64429086well they say patton or one of those guys died in a car accident. so probably
>>64429040in your own country
