>starlink access gets yoinked>russians immediately start having fucktons of friendly fire incidents like vidrel What tactics and equipment are necessary to avoid incidents like this, where one squad of untrained men lights up a friendly squad also comprised of untrained men? Surely there has to be a solution other than bootlegging satellite internet terminals serviced by a nation that is your declared enemy?
>>64845169Why does Russia keep trying to rely on imports from the west and then acting shocked when those imports get cut off? All their “modern” vehicle designs rely on western components. How are they THIS stupid?
>>64845197You know when you see African countries that have been in and out of civil wars for 50 years just doing mad shit? Just think of Russia as that on a larger scale with more funding. Just a bunch a midwit thugs that bullied their way into power fucking about with the resources a nation and then that's the same format all the way down the chain.
>>64845232You mean like the African countries who seethe about the west while simultaneously being dependent on their aid, all while worshipping countries that don’t help them at all?
>>64845269I mean, not all people there are butthurt leftoids or "fighting le evil degenerate wect", many are genuinely fans of the West and US in particular (until some funny events happened last year).
>>64845197Every time they try to do any big domestic projects it just gets massively embezzled and fails, so now they don't even try any more
>>64845169I think with the loss of any kind of C2 in the field they should be allowed to roam free like wild niggers and the new chief will be the one who leads his people to food and vodka
>>64845553what happened here? Mass psychosis followed by mass suicide or did they all freeze to death?
>>64845574The tribes leader chose poorly to lead his followers into the drone zone and probably collected some artillery eggs for his trouble as well
>>64845574The order came down and the lobster climbed the mountain. As the rooster faced west the elephants worked and some cotton was received. Now, all is known but will be forgotten as we continue to eat dumplings and blood sausage.
>>64845574Drones, artillery, sniper fire, pick your poison. Kursk front was an absolutely brutal meat grinder for russians. People forget, they canceled all ongoing offensive operations across the entire frontline to send reinforcements to Kursk, and when these reinforcements took even more obscene losses than the light border garrisons, that's when we finally got Koreans called in, as a measure of sheer desperation for manpower. Vid related, these guys were 2nd guards or something, literally hundreds of relatively high quality troops evaporated in seconds by HIMARS. And of course the koreans being deployed did not even slightly reduce the russian casualty rate. Kursk front eclipsed everything but Mariupol, Bakhmut, Avdiivka, and Vuhledar in terms of sheer casualties sustained per meter of ground gained. And all of those were urban sieges lol.
>>64845197Russian onions have more vitamins! 7 lakes, 3 oceans and S-P-A-C-E and T-I-G-E-R-S
>>64845574Just looks like your regular ex-battlefield filled with corpses, why the confusion and weird theories?
>>64845628All the online pundits were talking about how much of a miscalculation Kursk was, mainly out of seethe for how much the Russians shit themselves that the defeated Ukrainian army launched an offensive into Russian territory and it took months to make them withdraw, not defeat them.
>>64845752It was a miscalculation but also the Russians are total shit and couldn't capitalize on it
>>64845669Does anyone have the >we have T34 One?
>>64845624The Rooster slipped inside the ass and started pecking
>>64845803
>>64845169Unreal that Elon was letting Russia use starlink at all. Fucking treasonous, honestly
>>64845752There's a case to be made that, similarly to Bahkmut, the Ukrainians held for too long, and should have begun a withdrawal as soon as the casualty ratio started equalizing.
>>64845836He wasn't, starlink is geofenced in russia. They could still use it within the Ukrainian borders but the Ukrainian leadership was too busy embezzling the aid and never addressed it. The new minister of defense resolved it by simply requiring the starlink terminals to be registered in DELTA/Diia, which could have been done years ago.
>>64845836Agreed. But remember, billionaires don't care who they're dealing with as long as they make money. Nature of the beast. Imperial oil was bypassing US Govt restrictions and selling to the Nazi's in WW2. Even though the Nazi's were sinking their tankers and killing their crews. If I read correctly it took a personal "unspecified" threat againt the president of the company to change their ways. Sadly, Imperial Oil wasn't alone selling out for money.
>>64845849I hope to see the day when 4chan blocks you paki's.
>>64845628>>64845553I've really fallen behind on my ukraine webms, assuming you don't want to dump them, Is there a good vid dump thread in the archives I can go through?
>>64845169I'll never be able to not read that as "chornyi debil"
If you're interested, the original message from the unit (https://t.me/black_swan_ukraine/488) says that the ziggers have stopped wearing personal protective equipment—helmets and bulletproof vests—during assaults.My personal guess is that the ziggers don't take heavy stuff with them that won't save them from drones anyway.
>>64845995Ha, that's what I nonchalantly call all the nig nogs at work herr
>>64846006Or they're not issuing it. Personal armour worth carrying is fairly expensive but it does save your life, more importantly it does turn some major injuries into non-events or even down the scale of being able to waddle your busted self back somewhere out of trouble.Sure, its not stopping a drone but that's not the only thing out there gunning for dudes. Not the least of which is fragmentation effects from explosives so while one guy might get turned into giblets by a drone, if you're near him the armour is also keeping out bits of drone, his bones and exploding equipment from turning you into a leaking mess. Plus direct fire still happens, its not like that stopped being a thing overnight Sorta like saying. Not wearing a carrier and plates because it doesn't so shit against 155mm howitzer shells and 81mm mortar rounds
>>64846017Infantry combat has long been a rarity on the battlefield.
>>64846042It still happens enough you'd want a plate carrier, something armour in it and a lid.Especially a helmet
this is why camo is a meme. just wear safety vests to avoid friendly fire.
>>64846042>Z becomes 7
>>64846017it's pointless to give armor to people you just summarily execute when they're wounded, instead of treating them.
It's literally amazing that with all the tanks and jets and drones and MONEY the Ukrainians have been given, they still can't retake and hold any significant territory. If these threads have taught me anything, the Ukranians are incredibly well equipped with drones and Bradley IFVs and medium range missiles with satalite aided targeing systems and "advisors" out the ass and they are fighting a bunch of suicidal convicts equipped with shotguns and Nagants and donkeys.Is this some kind of gross incompetence in leadership or of the front line infantry? Is it a lack of overall strategic vision or is there some other reason they are so utterly ineffective. Pehaps some kind of malfeasance? It just seems too stupid to be stupid. Whatever the case, they sure have plenty of weapons and other resources. What other weapons do they need to be given in order to expel the invaders? What strategy do they need to adopt?Anyway, if it were me, I'd probably ease up on trying to make my enemy look massively incompetent if I wasn't able to actually accomplish anything meaningful against him by the use of combat arms.
>>64846006Why give dead meat armor? It's wasteful. Let them die in droves until there's enough survivors packed in an area to force a withdrawl and then send in the valuable real troops to secure it enough to push the line another 50m. Repeat until Ukraine is out of ammo, there's always more churkas and africans to turn into suicide bombs.
>>64846079you're really trying everything, are you?
>>64846079>we didn't NEED Kyiv, Lviv, Kherson, the entire Northern front, etc, etc
>>64846079
>>64846073Everyone loves the death cult shit until its time to die themselves
>>64846079>and MONEYWhat use does Ukraine have for money? Very little money has been given to them. What are they gonna do with it? Buy weapons? Easier and less risky to just give them weapons, which is what everyone's been doing from the start of the war. It's unreal that low info zoggers are STILL harping on about this so late in the war, however disingenuously. It's like you guys think one bank account is wiring another bank account money, or something. It works nothing like that at national scales kek
>>64846079weird paragraph of fanfiction you wrote there, it'd be a shame if someone were to...not read it.
>>64846088>we should help the enemy conserve amo and just shoot ourselves is this guy working for Ukraine ?
>>64846096Yea, yes, all those government officials that keep getting busted for corruption are definitely embezzling crates of rifles and train loads of armored vehicles. I mean, that actually wouldn't be anything out of the ordinary for that part of the world.But seriously, what weapons do they need to stop looking so stupid?>>64846114>fanfictionKek, nothing in there is in any way inaccurate.
>>64845959check /gif/. you can weed through /uhg/ on /pol/, but i just go straight to the source and rip mp4s with sound from telegram.
>>64846143i read the first sentence and immediately deemed it to be some retarded fanfiction.
