    I see in GunshipDemocracy's post Limb now mentions the Bandkanonne! Laughing Laughing Laughing
    It is an museum piece nowadays and only about 20 were ever built. It has a magazine with 14 rounds in total - so good luck with 18rpm Laughing
    Desperate stuff! What a Face

    U.K now has their first completely illegitimate Prime Minister of Pakistani origin.

    IOW, the same country that defines Putin as a despot and his military intervention in Ukraine illegal.

    Isn't he of Indian (Punjabi) descent (and also a Hindu)?

    But yeah now England (I do not believe it will remain as Great Britain for long) has both the prime minister and the major of its capital from South Asian descent.

    Frontline on PBS, which is wholly funded and operated by the United States government.

    Would be nice if RT, Sputnik and all other Russian media launch an in-depth documentary of NATzO (especially American) war crimes in Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam and beyond

    His ancestors are Punjabi Hindu migrants from the Pakistani city of Gujranwala. Majority of Punjabi Hindus living in India are refugees from Pakistan.

    Not being a Muslim, Sunka realizes that he won't receive any support from U.K's Muslim community, so there is no point of flaunting his Pakistani origin.

    OTOH, the Indian community both Christians and Hindus are extremely prosperous. So Sunak advertises himself as an Indian Hindu in order to ensure that the Indian community donates generously to his campaign.

    They have over 300k mobilized and additional over 70k volunteers only during the mobilization wave. Add this to the existing forces near frontline and add the help of conscripts (they will not take part in offensive operations) to it.

    We speak here about an invasion force of over 500k soldiers ready to go in Ukraine! There are rumors that far more soldiers than the 500k are available because more than 300k have been mobilized.

    I think Kiew is not on the plan, next steps will be Nikolaev, Odessa and Kharkiv...of course after the liberation of the new regions.

    Another bunch of lies...

    In 2007, the Russians began to receive the 2S19M1 with improved fire control system and added GLONASS antenna.
    In 2013 there was already the 2S19M2 equipped with a new automatic fire control system that increases the rate of fire. Digital electronic maps are now available that significantly speed up terrain orientation in difficult geographic conditions and allow for faster and more efficient shooting missions. In addition to the ability to shoot 10 projectiles per minute and a range of 80 km.

    It seems like you ignore patriotic russian tg channels of actual russian soldiers on the front, instead just believing everything Konashenkov says.
    Russian artillerymen have been complaining since the start of the SMO that ukrainian artillery and its operators are  excellent and extremely difficult to destroy.

    If you do feel the need to respond to limb, please edit the quote so those of us who do not want to read his posts don't get eye cancer from the content. Feel free to be creative with it.

    Konashenkov's reports are eye cancer. Reading 4 months straight "the russian army is making an assault operation on bakhmut" is eye cancer.

    https://t.me/milinfolive/92470
    This is horrifyingly dumb. This is what I mean by potbelly dinosaur behavior, sending a superexpensive multirole fighter as dumb bomb low altitude bomber like its 1968.

    They couldve at least used a Su-25 or Su-24. If the potbelly dinosaurs want to waste planes like that, they should use the Su-17 or MiG-27. I guess GarryB was wrong that supersonic fighters were considered by the russian air force to be inferior for dropping dumb bombs from low altitude, given that someone ordered this Su-35 pilot to do just that.

    Where is the vaunted SVP-24 to drop iron bombs from range here? They could've at least dropped bombs outside of MANPAD altitude. Gliding bombs aren't even needed much, they couldve just used Kh-25s too.


    If the russians are so afraid to even send Su-35s at high altitude bombing missions, this proves that the Ukrainian AD net is almost entirely intact. If ukrainian SAMs are mostly destroyed by now, why would the potbelly dinosaurs be sending aircraft in the range of MANPADs which ukrainians have in limitless quantities?

    Potbelly dinosaurs: Targeting pods? Who needs those, we went to berlin without targeting pods.
    Gliding bombs? Who needs those, in Zapad 1981 we used FAB-250s, and that was enough.
    Yes and no!

    All long range AD Systems should now be destroyed and Russia should operate from heights above 5 km. But on the other hand Ukraine has 1 IRIS-T SLM and 2 NASAMS systems now in use...not destroyed, fresh delivered. And they have successfully hidden part of their Buk systems and S-300 so far. So, as stupid as it may sound, it's better to attack deep these days! Also manpads have a terrible low hit rate.

    Luckily the power grid is more or less off now and the background of radio waves are now less. Also, the trees are losing leaves and the temperature is dropping, making large AD systems easier to see. By February, Ukraine will not have a single AD system larger than a manpad.

    There are also digitization upgrades for 2S3. 2S3M2 and 2S3M3.

    As for supposed advantages of GPS guided rounds those are only effective until the time Russia decides to jam GPS.
    In case of full blown peer vs peer conflict you would not have GPS. The satellites would be shot down.
    Russia has jammed GPS in Syria and I think they should have done the same around Kherson.

    The downing in may from friendly fire? Only one Su-35 has been (allegedly) destroyed by enemy missiles.

    There are also digitization upgrades for 2S3. 2S3M2 and 2S3M3.

    Clearly they haven't been upgraded in enough numbers.

    Also russia hasnt jammed GPS. It hasn't even permanently jammed starlink.

    There was nothing great about Britain, ever. A combination of slavery and Colonization allowed them to steal a march during the industrial revolution.

    Their rulers only knew how to sustain their economy by looting from their colonies. Once their colonies were gone the country went into a free fall.

    It is not surprising therefore that they have no clue how to govern their country. Intolerance and small-mindedness plagues Britain. Dozens of Neo Nazi outfits exist in that country and it's only a matter of time before one of these outfits lay their hands on Britain's nuke vectors.
