>>65339217https://x.com/SputnikInt/status/2077604385975042474>The defensive system consists of modular, heavy-duty, galvanized and corrosion-proof metal ‘netting’ that uses bolting (not welding) to assemble, special load-bearing columns, supports and grid pattern to ‘catch’ enemy drones and prevent them from reaching their target>It’s designed to take on heavy strike drones weighing up to 200 kg>Its protection can be applied to sites as much as 25M+ tall and of virtually any horizontal dimensions, making it ideally suited for defense of sites like oil storage and refinery facilities and electrical substations
I want to drip some thermite here.
>>65339217>they're "pilot testing" chicken wireoh it's ovyir now
>>65339217ukies already use explosively formed penetrator warheads which negate cope cages. plus, that's just a render. undoubtedly, the real thing will be a lot shitterand ukie midrange drones are already carrying rockets too. pic relwith sound https://files.catbox.moe/y7zrgz.mp4
>>65339217My economy! The cages do nothing.
>>65339217>>65339220>we've gotten to the point that sputnik is literally ANALGOVNETposting about a fucking chainlink fence "complex"
>>65339217Why not produce a real image of these cages instead of using AI?
>more tankers got ACK'd overnight retard here: why don't they sail them out of ukie midrange drone range?
>>65339233>go into architect's office >HURR DURR WHAT'S WITH THE PICTURES WHY DON'T YOU JUST BUILD IT:/
>>65339217It probably does work, contact detonation on a fuel/oil tank is much more disastrous because the blast tears the tank apart making for a bigger spill and bigger fire. An EFP slug hitting an oil tank causes a small spill and is less likely to cause a fire.Of course, ukies just need to use a delay fuze, so the drone/missile slams through the chicken wire before detonating.
>>65339235>sail them out of ukie midrange drone range?black sea not big enough ...
>>65339217it'll work basically like cages on tanks: the first drone impact will destroy it and then subsequent drones can fly through. also they'd have to cover everything or it's not worth it.maybe the cage can confuse terminal guidance, especially if there's some sort of painted cover>>65339225>ukies already use explosively formed penetrator warheads which negate cope cages.that would surprise me because EFPs are pretty shitty at doing damage relative to the size of the warhead required
>>65339236It literally says it's undergoing pilot testing at some facilities, just take a damn photo of one of them.
>add delayed fuse to warhead>expensive chainlink fence is completely uselesslel, the only thing these things effectively protect against are tiny FPV drones, and regular netting is already good enough for that.
>>65339217>drops termite on top of themoh no! anyway
>>65339253pretty sure the tanks aren't made out of wood
>>65339217>Complete and total inability to produce radar or IRST guided autocannons >Complete inability to roll out point defense turretsIt's fucking retarded how the russians are incapable of setting this up. I wonder whether or not western/taiwanese military planners are waking up to this bullshit as well and planning accordingly. MANPADs and airpower are not enough to down all these budget store cruise missiles or RC planes/quadcopters strapped with explosives.
>>65339217but will it stop debris?
>>65339217It could work if it managed to misaligned the warhead. However the target is huge and you might even have with multiple slugs coming from one EFP or multiple EFPs (which I suspect. They probably have multiple EFPs going all kinds of crazy directions because why not) it's more probably than not going to dab on the gargey
>>65339220>200kg dronesI bet out of that 200kg, the payload at least 100kg. The explosion gonna fuck up the installation either way.
>>65339238They had drone nets at the moscow refinery and you could see the drone exploding on impact way above the tank, which exploded a split second later. Fumes are a thing.
>>65339264>stop the debrisThats way "falling debris" cause fires and explosions.
>>65339217Smegkalka at its finest. Hey remember when they were gonna do this to protect their aircraft from drones, the unit cost was something like 180,000 rubles, two got built and the project promptly got forgotten about? Expect these to run 10 million rubles, a thousand ordered, five built in the ass end of siberia so they can never be attacked, and someone to acquire a new yacht.
>>65339235they're just feeding the boats to khokhols?
>>65339248>lel, the only thing these things effectively protect against are tiny FPV drones, and regular netting is already good enough for that.Even then, EFP warheads (or even improvised warheads inspired by old-school shrapnel shells, pic rel) would defeat these cope cages.Cope cages are only effective when applied to armored vehicles, not soft-skinned vans or oil bunkers.
>>65339273True, an EFP, especially with extra spice like zirconium or aluminum could blow up the fumes, but afaik even in Russia they should use floating roof tanks to eliminate fumes. (Well, obviously not in the case of that tank lid that joined the space program)

>>65339217>>65339220>let's build a cope cage over the entire cunt>isn't that what the jews did with their iron dome?Genious
>>65339288>Cope cages are only effective when applied to armored vehicles, not soft-skinned vans or oil bunkers.And even then it's more about tilting the warhead making the jet miss, or disabling the fuze
>>65339220>to ‘catch’ enemy dronesI thought they were all shot down
>>65339235Theyve got thos FPV fuckers that can reach all the way to roatov by now. First used to massacre that FSB drone school in Crimea that caused an absolute chimpout by russia

>>65339556The cost in tight twinky Roosters, undrafted sons of politicians and backfield services 'for the boys' was incalculable
Gonna need finer mesh than that for all that "drone debris".
>>65339262of course not, the minister of wood has allocated all the wood to be used for his multipolar dacha project
>>65339228>fire fighters>not fighting fire
>>65339470fuel in liquid form is relatively safefuel fumes are explosive and scary, that's why fuel storage tanks have these lids that move up and down depending on the content of the tank, so no fumes can accumulate inside
>>65339581>hu huh ah he's a big guy!
>>65339262keked
>>65339576>good luck faggot!>I'm behind 5 million trees!
>>65339582>fuel fumes are explosive and scaryThe conventional wisdom doesn't apply when half the facility is on fire and the storage tanks get hot enough to start boiling the fuel.Additionally, while the tanks have openings to vent out the fumes, other systems on site like pumping equipment doesn’t.A closed pipe full of liquid surrounded by fire quickly turns into a steam bomb when you heat it enough, and when that bomb ruptures all the superheated fuel vapors (that are far beyond their flash-point) rush out and mix with the air, spontaneously and violently igniting.
>>65339217Cope cages on soft targets are only effective against dropped ordnance like hand grenades, maybe frag bombs.

>>65339217>How effective will these cope shacks be against Ukrainian UAVs?it'll be good against the current generationwell for now at leastUkraine already operates cooperative penetration swarms of loitering munitionthat tactic has been around for years, basically since shortly after the very first cope cagesfor targets deep inside Russia, you'd need that in a single drone thoughtechnically it's not that hard to just bolt a small, likely unguided solid propellant rocket with a small explosive up front and shot it ~200m up frontthis will cost next to nothing and is easy to produceor you could do fancier warheads, inspired by bunker busters (a few centimeter of steel really isn't a barrier if you can prepare for it)tanks get around this with reactive armourbut this obviously isn't an option for larger targetsthere's only so much you can do to physically protect normal buildings / infrastructure
>>65339217>How effective will these cope shacks be against Ukrainian UAVs?not very against anything but tiny drones that are mostly used against personnel, but it's cheap and even middling effectivity is better than rawdogging it.the drones themselves aren't very effective, but use enough of them and it's a significant pain. if ziggers plaster everything of value with it it might similarly be an annoyance for piggies, or at least force them to build bigger drones and more resources per drone -> less drones made
>>65339767>there's only so much you can do to physically protect normal buildings / infrastructureRussians, inspired by their cousins from the Middle Earth that were weakened by sunlight, might start moving their infrastructure into underground hovels or possibly caverns if they exist nearby. This gives you natural protection against smaller drones, and larger explosives collapsing the structure would conveniently bury the corpses so the state doesn't even need to dispose of them before declaring them MIA to avoid the payout to Svetlana, 37, who sent her fourth husband this year to die.

>>65340616>It's the "Dubai Chocolate" of drone warfare.What's that mean? I've seen that stuff at the store and thought it looked like shit, was dubai chocolate originally shit?
>>65340681Speaking of tankers, did they drop off the daily slaughter or did I miss the thread?

>>65342017The original dubai chocolate was an innovative luxury that had to be consumed fresh and now it's just a flavor profile like "chai" or "matcha".
>>65342063>>The other purpose is to purposefully "whitewash" Dubai's other pisspoor image of them basically being a modern slaver state and mistreatment of asian and african workers that live and work in abhorish and crowded apartment blocksIt's supposedly an attempt at google-washing the "tag the sponsor" phenomenon, where western women (often Instagram models or social media influencers) go to the UAE or other wealthy gulf states for "a vacation" or a "modeling gig," but in actuality, it's just for sex work, which is often assumed to involve getting shit on.

>>65339247Well, let's think about it for a minute, we really have two options why they haven't done so>1. The last zigger who isn't suffering from FAS and/or having his brain melted by alcoholism and krokodil actually used his neurons, and didn't post photos so that Ukraine doesn't have free intel which oil sites are being reinforced, as to make them spend more time and money on recon and drone attacks>2. It's all already embezzled to hell and back to a point there's maybe one oil tank with cheapshit hardware store fence set up around it somewhere in bumfuck nowhere near vladivostok but at least Rostec's CEO has renovated two dachas
