    That smoke let by the missile engine reminds me the attack on the radio tower 2 weeks ago. It was a kh-59 and I think it is the same kh-59 here.


    And there is certainly not any storm shadow there. Most likely they are kept near Poland or in poland and brought in when used.

    The smoky engine seem a low cost mass produced one that does the job. I don't remember seeing such smoke plumes before for missiles.

    Fortunately for the French soldiers, there may be no breakthrough. The whole front will move west. Very Happy

    Dagny Taggart
    @DagnyTaggart963
    If the Russian Armed Forces break through the front, France will send troops to Ukraine - Macron, The Economist
    He said that there are two conditions for sending soldiers to Ukraine. The first is a breakthrough of the front by Russia. The second is a request from Kiev.

    First they got rid of the flags, are obituaries next?

    Victor vicktop55
    @vicktop55
    The Russian telegram channel "Whisper of the Front" is counting the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine according to the obituarys in the Ukrainian press:

    "It seems that the Armed Forces of Ukraine lost a division or brigade to zero on 05/02/2024. There are more than 1,500 obituaries in just one day."

    The first F-16s will probably enter operations at the end of May. If they were able to carry JASSM or JASSM ER, they could be dangerous. JASSM missiles may be dangerous to Russia's further hinterland.

    The Reuters news agency reported earlier this year that Russian forces had used grenades loaded with CS and CN tear gases.
    Using tear gas against peaceful protesters is fine, but not against armed soldiers.  Rolling Eyes

    Ukranian army burns a Donald Trump doll, because they got weapons too late.

    Trump just needs to show that video and he will get elected... even Americans who don't like Trump wont want a foreigner they have spent billions of tax dollars on telling them who can or cannot be their president.

    Was it just me or did the actual face under the paper image of Trump look a bit like Poroshenko?

    On the other hand, the idol of theirs was doing blowjobs for money, being arrested multiple times for prostitution.

    For money? More like he enjoyed it...

    Some say it was a Kalibre attack but that trail looks straight down to me.

    A Kalibre is like a small light jet aircraft, so to maximise range it can fly at 8-10km altitude where it will be safe from ground fire and MANPADS and then dive nearly vertically onto its target where an intercepting missile or gun round would have to detonate the warhead to stop it... anything else and it likely will still hit its target anyway.

    Can a Kalibre drop vertically like that trail?

    Of course it can... flying at altitude maximises the speed it can fly at and its range and removes the threat of ground fire (small arms) and MANPADS. Most medium range SAMs would struggle to hit it unless its flight path took it directly over them and part of its mission planning would be to fly it around know Orc air defence systems.

    He was young and needed the money.

    He was a fag and the money was just a bonus...

    Can't they just fit the anti drone system they put on the rolling house? Should not be that hard.

    Plus the anti drone jammer stations and of course small arms including shotguns but also LMGs and Verba and Igla-S and even Kornet would be good against some targets in the 10km range version with the HE Frag warhead model.

    Time for the Navy to learn some tricks from the Army...

    President Joe Biden has previously warned Russia against deploying chemical weapons in Ukraine. In March 2022, weeks after Moscow launched its invasion, Mr Biden vowed that President Vladimir Putin would pay a "severe price" if he did authorise the use of chemical weapons.

    The president that authorised the delivery of cluster munitions into the conflict which has led to their use by both sides...

    The smoky engine seem a low cost mass produced one that does the job. I don't remember seeing such smoke plumes before for missiles.

    Rocket powered missiles leave smoke trails, Kalibre is jet powered and would leave no smoke trail... even if it used MiG-29 engines or B-52 engines.

    That smoke trail might be from a SAM trying to intercept the threat...

    The first F-16s will probably enter operations at the end of May. If they were able to carry JASSM or JASSM ER, they could be dangerous. JASSM missiles may be dangerous to Russia's further hinterland.

    It will be good for the Russian Air Force because they probably don't have enough lighter fighters that can be directed by major airborne early warning aircraft... and they could probably do with more AWACS aircraft... numbers and types.

    Will be funny when they shoot down a few F-16s... especially when they get shot down an enormous distance from the front line.

    Since Karla Hausenpfeffer won't say it I will, does Germany even have any industry left after this? By the way I have some footage from 1944 to show with my claim that Russia is now using daylight precision bombing to eviscerate NATO infrastructure:

    I'm quite certain that at the beginning of the SMO a recruitment center in the heart of Kiev was attacked by a steep diving Kalibre?

    Reminds me of the movie "Operation Petticoat", in which the crew tries to sink a tanker and hits
    a truck on land instead.

    Lots of fire hazards in NATO arms & ammo production facilities lately
    It´s all coincidence, while any fire in some dustbin anywhere in Russia is the result of a fantastic
    special operation by Ukro spies.

    The only reason that inane propaganda such as "Russia is deploying chemical weapons" flies is because of the retard-grade IQ of NATzO MSM consumer lemmings.
    If Russia was going to use chemical weapons, then why not from day 1? Is Russia now losing badly and is desperate? IQ guards against holding an overload of
    contradictory BS in the brain that freezes up the thought process.

    Russia should use chemical weapons on any NATzO forces moved into Ukria, simply out of spite.
