aka stupid shit that happened
>>65614188Doing a barrel roll doesn't work in a tank. That is for planes.And diving below the surface is for uboats, not panzers.
I need to make an mp4 of the video I have where we used a humvee to pull (drag) a portable a/c unit on a pallet out of the connex.
>>65614167The grandpas in tractors "harvesting" tanks at the start of the war doesn't get nearly enough posting
>>65614245nothing is impossible
>>65614877Context of this?
>>65614889Looks like the aftermath of one of the times the BBC POCCNR bombed one of their own cities after a glide bomb/missile failed to deploy properly.
>>65614188This is what you get for not respecting the swamp spirits
>>65614889the russian aerospace forces have an abuse Belgorod
>>65614889russian air force accidentally bombed the (russian) city of belgorodmany such cases!
>>65614889Belgorod delenda est.
>>65614767Soldiers will be soldiers
>>65615670>that car landing on the roofNeat
>>65615747At a guess, someone is going to get to fix that themselves.
Making a mistake that gets you, your flagship and half its crew killed probably qualifies.
>>65615670I've wondered for a while now, how would you even file for an insurance claim provided you didn't die in the explosion.
>>65614167
>>65615959But wait, there's more!
>>65615962>truck driver hauling it on a flatbed for restoration overspeeds, T95 breaks loose from trailer and is thrown into a ditch>only needs minor repairs to two track bogies
>>65616046Don't make em like they used to.
>>65615959Is there a picture when they found it?
>>65616064Yes
>>65616122>clean it up, private
>yeet
>>65616122>Watch out for the bumps!
>>65616122>THE GUN IS GOOD! THE PENIS IS BAD!
>>65615670That almost looks like the explosion came from underground. Why is that?
>>65616137https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-65344370
>>65614188What happens to the crew when they fuck up like this? I assume the driver and commander are never setting foot in a military vehicle ever again
>>65615895How do you lose 358 of 583 crew during a mass exercise in calm water?
>>65616180Ship with very low freeboard and turret weight in the bow. Rolled and went down very quickly.
>>65616162Why would you think that? Now it's an excercise of retrieving it and figuring out what went wrong and learning to not do it again.
>>65616211Because they sunk a several million dollars vehicle in dirt as a direct result of them being incompetent retards
>>65614245It works, but only for the Landmaster Mk. I light tank.
>>65616220Dirt don't hurt it
>>65616220If they were that precious about it they would not let 19 year olds operate this shit. You have to accept some fuckups happening with vehicles this heavy, at least this is a useful learning experience unlike backing over a squishy in the washdown area.
Not the RCN's fault but I post because it was taken from Y jetty and I am pretty sure of who said the "panic stations" line.https://youtube.com/watch?v=YXVZq98cUgA
>>65614889Belgorod.
>>65615905You don't. This is clearly war-related damage, and everyone knows there's no war. You didn't see any war because IT'S NOT THERE. Anyway, since they're never gonna pay you shit it's safer for you to just pretend you hit an exceedingly random pothole.
>>65616125Jesus I had entierely forgotten about the panzerfaust at home.
The Me 109 wasn't the easiest plane to land or take off with.
>>65616352At least they remembered the face shield. The first run of Panzerschrecks didn't have one, the gunner had to wear protective gear and a gas mask because they'd eat rocket blast to the face. Legend has it that the shield wasn't optimal either and would kick back in the gunner's face, occasionally breaking noses. But then the Carl Gustav apparently causes brain damage, so who the fuck knows what's better.
>>65616270
>>65616178always fun to see one of my stories get screencapped. Here's some other fuckery from that trip:>the EOD guy who came out to make safe the dud 155s turned out to be extremely gay and was lusting after me the entire trip. He gave me presents like his extra pmags which was neat and it felt kinda nice to be wanted, but shit was gay as hell>buddy went to open up a mystery connex in our compound that had just been sitting there and nobody ever opened it up, only to find it was filled to the brim with trash and shit from previous rotations. I guess they were trying to ship all their trash out or something but we had to clean it all up which fucking sucked>very liberal drinking policies got ruined when a fat bitch that everyone hated drank an entire solo cup of straight hennessy and wandered off to pass out on the perimeter wire.>had to perform a CASEVAC on a Security Forces K9 that ate its own flea collar, obviously no vets in theatre so a C-130 had to be flown in from Germany. Right as the bird touches down he fireman carries the K9 out of our vehicle and runs out to it against protocol screaming at us when we told him to get back in the truck "You don't understand bro, I got a downed dog that needs evac out!" with tears in his eyes>watched a Nigeren police traffic stop in town, their police cars are of course Hiluxes with a DSHK on the back. One cop gets out of the cab and hops on the gun, the other cop who makes contact with the pulled over car grabs a type 56, extends the bayonet, and walks up to the car at port arms>the Chinese tried to spy on us whenever we'd go off base but it never worked out because they're fucking chinese in the middle of nowhere africa. At first we thought the guys we were catching were bait to get us to let our guards down for a more covert group, but they brought in some glowies who did some spoopy shit and confirmed yep, they're just that retarded.
>>65615670The road repair afterwards.
>>65616763
>>65616729Good shit, anon.
>>65615067Wonder whatever happened to all those guys they sent to potatoland on busses after this blunder.Most of them had to have absorbed a lethal dose, right?They were burning undecayed trees they found buried underground by the liquidators as fucking firewood.
>>65616763Xdddddd
GMC M3 at home.
>>65616936prompt lethal?noare they likely to develop some interesting cancers later on? you betcha
>>65616763Fucking HELL
>>65616162>driver and commander are never setting foot in a military vehicle ever againThe local chain of command will figure out what the fuck happened, and if the commander is incompetent, he'll be moved out of the job and given some desk duty for awhile. If the driver is a fucking moron, same thing, he'll get moved somewhere that he can't fuck up a high value vehicle. If it's ruled as a "shit happens" incident, then the crew and unit will get a lesson about what the fuck happened, why, and how to avoid it in the future.
>>65616729>"You don't understand bro, I got a downed dog that needs evac out!" with tears in his eyesHonestly, i get it. Did the poor thing make it?
>>65616162lol no, shit sinks, gets stuck and busted all the time. Just part of the job,Also part of the job is the motor pool handing you some hoses, pressure washer and a 'good luck fucko' when you're done
>>65616266It just wants tummy rub, no one loved LAV
May as well post it here:>be me>2nd lt at tank battalion in armor brigade>talk to some guys from logi battalion during a smoke break>apparently their maintanace company have problem>one ARV has fucked up suspension>error 404: spare parts not found>not in the workshop>not in the division store>not in any of the reginal logi bases in 400km radius>base commander is up their ass because division excercise is coming up fast and we need those for when (not if. when) a tank breaks down.>can't even take parts from tanks because we've recently replaced entire fleet, but someone up high in their infinite wisdom didn't think about ordering dedicated ARVs for them and we're stuck with postcommunist rust buckets>guys are getting desperate>then they remembered that at the front gate of the base there are two monuments.>of immobilized T-72s>idea.jpg>at night they grabbed a truck, tools, a few "gifts" to make the sentries look away and officer on duty to have a cctv malfunction>nobody noticed that the monuments are now missing a few a-arms>ARV runs fine to this day

>>65617165I had a troop who got shit drunk right before he had to drive a bus and crashed it into a swamp in Florida. Apparently the bus was legit at a 45 degree angle in the ground.Dude got the bright idea to not tell anyone and try and extract it himself and got his uniform muddy, so he stripped down do his pants and walked back to base to steal a wrecker. He ended up swimming the channel between Tyndall AFB and PCB, hopped the fence and infiltrated the base undetected, and only got caught because he tracked mud into the motor pool when he snuck in to steal the keys for a wrecker and somebody followed the footprints Metal Gear Solid style.I wanted to send him off to SERE school or something but the commander wouldn't go for it and demoted him to E-1 and gave him a 45/45.

>>65617359You've sort of gotta admire the 'retard drive' to succeed despite the odds of being eaten by whatever heinous coke-fueled nightmare shit is running around in Florida, then break into a military base by yourself and 'nearly' fucking succeed.Man's a fucking champI mean he's a retard, but he's king of all retards

>>65617388It's as if the entire universe loathes russians and wants to see them gone.

>>65617383>just fucking drive Ping!>where? where the fuck we gunna go?>Mongolia, Vietnam... somefuckingstan, just drive!
>>65617390Russians trying to film a propaganda video destroying a captured Ukrainian S300 system. Very early in the war.
>>65617395>unknown technology
>>65617376>Fighting over a goatThey don't look muslim.
>>65617403Vast majority of russians have more in common with muslims than Christians or Westerners in general.
>>65617403Probably chechens>>65617377Pipeline infiltration training?
>>65617406>Pipeline infiltration training?Yes, but like most things given time and enough motivation by morons, its shabby and rubbish
A burning unexploded warhead from a crashed drone? Fucking score! I hate having to eat my meals cold.

>>65617416>this wasn't in the simulations
>>65617421
>>65617421I especially like how the dipshit in the face mask burns himselfThey'll spend at least 3 generations of FASD morons trying to figure out why the recoil impulse does what it do... and likely just come to the conclusion you need to be 300lb to ride this wild bitch
>>65617431
>>65617431>>65617453>>65617431Capcha ate my reply:*One of the funniest parts wasn't caught on camera. In the immediate aftermath one of them asks if the truck cab is "normal/okay", after said truck cab ate about 100 rounds of 50-cal point blank.They didn't even answer him.
>>65617453
>>65617453>>65617458Reminds me of that poor fucking mobik goober sometime around 2018-ish that started an MRE heater next to his BTR-82 because well, its windy, cold and a nigga gotta eat.>burns down vehicle

>>65616220ohhh noooo, dirt on my precious tank?! But they're not supposed to get dirty!You absolute fucking retard. They hook it up to a winch, spend the afternoon digging it out and then hose it off. Maybe some extra duties on the weekend for a bit if they're not embarrassed enough.
