Dickhead.....it reads made September 2001. Not really the most advanced. This is the initial version, came before dual mode, Brimstone 2, Brimstone 3.
As usual, don't let facts get in the way of your narrative.
Hahaha... of course... they want to appear to be helping the Ukraine but don't want to give anything actually useful to them or anything... that is a best friend for you...
But Ukrainians have always used 152mm artillery shells whereas NATO standard is 155mm. NATO can't supply 152mm so they are supplying 155mm and to use the latter Ukraine also needs NATO artillery guns.
Very true, and they will target these imports too.
Another dick. Why can't NATO manufacture 152 mm shells for Ukraine?
US special forces are putting out contracts for western companies to make AKs and PKs and Utes and RPGs and the ammo to go with it for sneaky beaky use... it makes sense so they can operate in enemy territory while being able to use local ammo and not make distinctive noises when they fire... that makes sense.
Making 152mm artillery shells does not make sense because why would they want to make artillery shells they don't need or would use... any allies would be forced to change to 155mm calibre and would use standard HATO ammo...
Making 152mm ammo means selling less 155mm guns.
Can a mod ban this troll. Insulting isn't allowed here. He insulted two times in two posts.
Many posters have been insulting him, and he is responding in kind, however... good point... you have not insulted him, and nor has Sujoy so he gets a break for two weeks. (one week for each) I am not sure Bulgaria has the facilities to build more 152mm guns and it makes more sense to provide what u have in stock than to build new, especially when it's likely that they will be Destroyed any way
Give away old stock so you get new stock to replace it...
Putin could have handled some things better for sure, but considering the constant pot shots that the west has been taking against Russia (the entire Ukrainian affair is one, a big one) all this time, they are ultimately to blame.
He has taken an ordinary hand into a game winning hand... and can now leave the table and leave the game because it is crooked, and go earn a living in the rest of the villiage outside this dirty casino called the west.
I mentiond in this thread how mad things were during 8/8/8, it's the same but a hundred times worse.
Yes... effectively Putin has tried everything but it is the west that has failed, and so Putin is clearly not interested in better relations with the west... he is going to deal with the Ukraine and I suspect then he is going to turn his back on the west and look to the rest of the world to create an alternative future to the west for everyone else... which is a good thing IMHO.
Been saying the west hates Russia for a long time and now Putin is realising... they need to shift to the Asian sports leagues and turn to Asia and Africa and South and Central America for trade and partnerships and development and growth.
The NATzO propaganda about Russia running out of missiles goes back to early March.
This propaganda is based on their own experiences where in wars they have run out of missiles and ordinance... it is just a cheap shot.
the US is not going to go easy if its control is lost. They are eventually going to go to war against both Russia and China which would be World War III. That financial control through usury needs to be destroyed.
When they lose the world perhaps the 99% in the US might start to realise the 1% have destroyed everything they tried to be and everything that had been created for them. The 1% didn't build America... they inherited it and have destroyed it... the US is more likely headed for a civil war as predicted by the various zombie movies that were made there... small group of humans trying to fight off the unending numbers of the 99%... usually in a Mall... the centre of US consumerism...
They already faced a harsh criticism that this was the sole real game, and swallowed it. Why not to get the effects after?
He is still capable for duty, will be 72 on the next elections.
How many countries other than the US has term limits... why should it not be up to the people who is in charge of their country?
If you say to avoid corruption... well term limits did not prevent Biden buying the election using the US intel agencies and social media outlets to crush any opposition...
In any other theatre in the world, Russia could have been easily outmaneuvered and blocked. Closing some vital paths would be a deadly blow to the Russian logistics, plus no matter if we like it or not, the seas are ruled by NATO at the moment.
That has to be Russias next focus because they need to be able to support and help potential trading partners internationally so that is going to take ships and warships and subs...
AFAIK, APS has never been battle proven.
Drozd was tested in Afghanistan in the 1980s by the Naval Infantry and was deemed successful, though design upgrades to Drozd 2 were made and the system was not adopted into service AFAIK.
I am sure they can afford to lose few Orlan drones in order to have good video for own show-off purposes as well as for disproving Ukrainian propaganda.
They can't win the propaganda war... if they release footage of Orcs being slaughtered Kievs nazis will simply doctor the video and claim it is Russian forces being destroyed, or no western media outlet will use the footage.
Makes more sense to just keep doing what they are doing...
Don't waste their time trying to win over the western audience.
Good example is Snake Island. Ukrainians publish Hollywood style video of Su-27 bombing an Island and destroying Mi-8 with good story supporting it.
on the other hand, Russians MoD informed us about destruction of 3 jets, few helicopters and few boats but without any video or photo evidence Sad
Yesterday they said that around 20+ bodies are left on the island but there is nothing to support this thesis.
Where is Kievs video of occupying the island? They sent three Mi-8s and an Mi-24 and they had an Su-27 and several Su-24s and a few drones they lost and all they can show is supposed footage of what they call a Russian helicopter... this was a landing attempt... which explains the number of Ukranian aircraft lost.
Israeli trophy did very well against atgms. Just like soviet t-55 equiped with Drozd in Afghanistan and it was 1970 technology.
They for sure aren't protecting with 100% success but they make atgm Pk very low.
The frustrating thing is that if you treat an APS system as not just a separate system but an organic part of a vehicle design it essentially could add 360 degree MMW radar and all weather optics detection for the crew in the vehicle... making computer processing of the video image possible so it would rapidly detect moving human targets (heat sources) to direct smoke or the main gun quickly to deal with close in threats and warnings of attacks and give even closed up armoured vehicles excellent situational awareness.
These systems are not cheap, but unless you start deploying them you wont know how effective they really could be...
More importantly mass production and widespread use will help reduce costs and improve performance too.
