Russia to hold a Victory Day parade without military equipmentRussia’s traditional parade marking the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II will take place next week without tanks, missiles and other military equipment, the Russian Defense Ministry said in a statement.It will be the first time in nearly two decades — and in Russia’s 4-year-old war in Ukraine — that no military equipment will rumble through Moscow’s Red Square on May 9, the day Russia celebrates its most important secular holiday. The Kremlin has used it to showcase its military might and global clout, and it is a source of patriotic pride.Victory Day parades on Red Square have involved military equipment and various weaponry every year since 2008. Smaller parades are held elsewhere across the country, including in cities like St. Petersburg.The ministry cited the “current operational situation” as a reason for excluding military equipment, as well as cadets, from this year’s parade on the 81st anniversary of the victory. Ukraine has launched drone attacks deep inside Russia to counter Moscow’s more than 4-year-old invasion.https://apnews.com/article/russia-victory-day-parade-3c0e2619140194148dd94c730775ee3f

>>534385431Daily reminder this whole "victory day" parade only happened 3 times during USSR existence, but Putin made it yearly to indoctrinate russians.
>>534385581military parades are cool tho
>>534385431I think the last couple years they only had a couple of tanks or something. Russia has lost so much equipment

>>534386932Tanks are more useless for war in 2026 than horses.Keep believing they can't make cool tanks tho NAFO.
>>534385692yeah the trump parade was so cool kek
>>534387064>we never needed those tanks anyways>we still make them though>no, you cannot see themNot a bad idea. The Kremlim could just have a couple hundred ziggers ride around on donkeys and electric scooters in Red Square lol
>>534388017>tanks not getting blown up>there must be no tanksAll their tanks have been refitted with drone jammers. Only fiber ones work on them.

op is a cheap ass kike larper.he wants you to believe russia is weak and you could therefore win a war against it.in reality, china has already produced millions of drones for them, which will be used to blow every single one of us into pieces.enjoy the last few years you still got.
>>534389777What about the other meme flags?
>>534389777>t.
>>534387064>Tanks are more useless for war in 2026 than horsesYou're so fucking clueless it's perhaps best if you fuck off back to Russia. A cheap FPV drone will almost instantly kill you, your horse or whatever bicycle you use to rush B you fucking retarded vatnigger. Tanks are perhaps too valuable for drone protection because they can also be used to track coordinates for anti tank missiles, but any old APC such as BTR will protect the crew just the same. It's easy af to mount a weapon on it that shoots pellets designed for the purpose. The fact is Russia doesn't give a fuck about the lives of their soldiers. Ask any of the families of dead Russian soldiers how badly they were fucked over with the monetary compensations. They often receive none, because they claim AWOL (cowardice) or MIA rather than KIA. Russia has thousands of old BTRs and none are used to protect frontline units.
>>534385431NATO is losing to this ? kek

>>534390438the issue with tanks in ukraine is russians were just yoloing them in without establishing air supremacy, overwatch and without infantry support.i agree that people are over-learning the lessons of this gay and retarded slavic slapfight war, until machine guns stop existing AFVs are simply necessary for offensives unless you want to be stuck in attritional warfare.no western country would accept its men being used like Russia uses its men so there's no way around it.
>>534390438APCs are aluminumShit for brains
>>534387064>Tanks are more useless for war in 2026 than horses.People have been saying 'tanks are useless for war' since the day the tank was invented, and in every war subsequently.
>>534385431its in the middle of the night in Europe, you want us to hate our neighbors in eastern Europe because of your jewish masters?go fuck yourself, retard.
>>534385431This is a sign Russia is winning right?
>>534392488yes
