and not a single post?? in the middle of iran negotiations. obvious a consesion to the towelheads
two tanks riding past an arch of swords in the background , with the hatches open and men stationed at the guns. one tank is a bit ahead of the other
>>543530393>Heavy armor ready for action!>Moving in.>How about a show of force?
there were barely any troops left after Iran attacks anyway.
How do tankfags feel about their era ending? Since you know, drones made tanks economically a bad choice to have on the battlefield.
>>543532877>drones made tanks economically a bad choiceat least you didnt said "tanks are obsolete" tanks are still being used but since the mass use of drones the role is readjusting. you know that a headhog tank survives 10+ fpvs ?? they can still be used as a magnet of drones at least and they will just adapt when new counters emerge
>>543533260I don't think the tank is obsolete as an idea, I just don't know how you can make a tank that can survive in this battlefield,without making it expensive as fuck and an even bigger target. I mean, even in basically any modern war, a tank pushing through without air support is not happening, even in ww2 tanks had to be supported by air. But, drones are so cheap and plentiful, making a tank better would mean more expensive and heavier, require more crew training. I just don't know how you can make a tank for this modern battlefield.
Fuck planefags
>>543530492Good bot.
>>543533342They've already invented heavily armored and very fast microtanks which are shaped to deflect explosives. Add AI assisted motion tracking and a standoff weapon to the roof. They stopped talking about the shit entirely oh about 10 years ago, and we've seen zero on the battlefield, which means black projects took it over entirely and current gen US armored warfare hasn't even started.
>>543530393Abrams look so good in green.
>>543532134The game even had a mission for covering the routing US forces from not-Afghanistan. And in Zero Hour mislims have overtaken Europe. Truly a game ahead of its time.
>>543532877Every idiot saying some variation of "tanks are obsolete" should be made to face down a tank after being given a weapon that can nominally destroy it. Tanks get blown up? Oh no anyway. That's what they've been doing since their invention. They still win wars. Pic related. Ask not what you can do to the tank, but what the tank can do to you. For starters, it can deliver a warhead many times more destructive than an FPV drone, at supersonic speeds, over 5 kilometers, and every 6-10 seconds.
>>543535802Let it go dude. The meta has changed. You are the WW2 general insisting that horse mounted cavalry charges are still relevant.
>>543535802>made to face down a tankWhy? The whole point is no one has to "face down" a tank any longer.
>>543530393It's not a concession and there are no negotiations, it's just that zogbots can't protect their bases from drone attacks, so either they can keep fudging the casualty numbers or they can withdraw.
>>543535932Consider the following. A machine gun nest can kill a cavalry charge and tanks phased out cavalry by being better at everything cavalry used to do. At the same time you are presented with a misleading image by only being shown successful FPV strikes against tanks. The hundreds of failed attempts, or tanks withstanding drone strikes, or FPVs falling out of the sky due to jamming, or their crews being pulped by an artillery strike, are not shown. A machien gun can kill hundreds of horsemen. It takes dozens of drones on average to kill a tank, and that is nothing to say about the infrastructure needed to operate drones (Starlink, fiber optics etc), compared to the simplistic machine gun. A tank is a massive cannon and machine gun nests on a highly-mobile and survivable (obviously not invincible) chassis. It can break through, it can suppress, it can operate as self-propelled artillery. It can support infantry in real time, and obviously it can kill other tanks. FPV drones, if anything, made snipers, light-mortars, and hand-held anti-tank weapons obselete, since the drones do the jobs of those, not that of a tank.
>>543530393Trump WONThose military forces ADVANCED out of Iraq
>>543530393Don't we still have forces at the base up in the Kurdish region?
>>543536464>we That depends, are you jewish?
>>543535802>they still win warskek, then why aren't they winning any you fucking moron?
>>543530393Based thread thanks for baking it. I saw this news a bit ago and thought the same thing as well
>>543530393>America lost the warEveryone knows anon, stop being a newfag to life.
>>543535932tanks will always be meta, there will just be better versions of it
>>543537507fuck that's sexy
So long Kurds, nice knowing ya! Nah they were Satanic commies.
>>543530393They've been gone for over two months. Since most forces left in the middle of the night and fled when local militia ramped up threats due to using iraq as a staging ground against iran.This is just the public acknowledgement. Its nice that you noticed that one, but not the real retreat that already happened. On the ground military forces are all as far away as Jordan now, hence why those are the ones getting pounded by iran and dozens of dead being reported from those attacks. The old bases are empty now and have been for months. The US forces are barely in the middle east now, and mostly huddled near the coast of the med. The risk of invasion for iran is laughable when the talking heads speak of it, modern Baghdad bobs running away like vagine.
>>543536570Same reason why drones aren't winning ukraine and has us at a stalemate with Iran. War is a complex rock paper scissors consisting of 50 different things that all tie and beat each other. The current goal is to develop a proper counter to rock (drones). It was the same thing with tanks they were nigh unstoppable when they showed up in the first World Wars. Then we developed RPGs and sticky grenades.
>>543530393Were we supposed to annex iraq? Stay there spending money on bases for all eternity just to avoid jeets on the web crying about concessions?We should've left a while ago.
