Russian Invasion of Ukraine (2022): Thread 1 - Ukrainian Liars vs Russian Liars with Air and Artillery Superiority

[Jarch6]

Holy shit another 5 pages in half an hour. Fuck it, if I post something late/debunked, consider this my "whoops my bad" in advance.



What in the actual fuck. I'm too sober for this shit.

The great thing about the language barrier is you could always just make up a bunch of bullshit with a video of ARMA and we'd just believe you, sort of like /vt/ threads with the moon rune barrier.

The people who buy that "6 kills in 1 day" ace story are trying to get a nickname meme going.

I am reminded of all the WW2 tall tales of random schmucks killing 100 NAZIs on their own, mostly from the soviets. Oh well, it's just human nature.

Расцветали яблони и груши
Поплыли туманы над рекой
Выходила на берег Катюша
На высокий берег, на крутой
Выходила на берег Катюша
На высокий берег, на крутой

The hard stomps and autistic screeching, 10/10

It has everything.

• Autist desperate for attention as evidenced by bright red skinny pants
• Actual shit that matters just slightly deviating to avoid/not kill them
• Rando that just wants to grill crossing the street
• Watermark in the middle of the video for shekels
• Some other autist filming them for the keks

200 Recruits Wanted

I will receive 200 able bodied men if they will present themselves
at my headquarters by the first of March with good trucks and guns.
I wish none but those who desire to be actively engaged. My headquarters
for the present is at Belgorod, Oblast

COME ON BOYS, IF YOU WANT A HEAP OF FUN AND TO KILL SOME UKROPS

Have we heard anything from CRP?

One thing I'm noticing, though it just may be a reporting issue, is that the big pushes come during daylight hours. Not at night. You would think Russia would take advantage of their tech edge in night-fighting capability if they had it.

War's barely 24 hours old, so we'll see if the pattern continues, but the Russians seem to have gotten a mixture of deep pushes in the South and a lot more than they bargained for everywhere else, and they took the night off to clear their own fog of war.

Over half the people who liked this are Americans.

Maybe you guys should go to bed?

Thank you for the suggestion. I have decided to delve into the furry hellpit.

You missed this one. I particularly like the colored tears.

Thank you, anonymous (I dont wanna know your name) furry artist, for so flawlessly illustrating certain mutt activity in this very thread. The blend of cringe and cluelessness - contrasts so beautifully with the indefatigable certainty on display. The same way artists in the wake of WW1 captured humanity's reaction to the mechanized slaughter unleashed, so to do furry artists capture our fallen post-clown warfare and society.

I'd read a bit a few years back about how Russian NVG's are way behind, we're talking back about NVG-5 levels, and that there isn't much training on them.

Was checking out a few things a year or so ago and someone who had gotten done with a bit of service with the Russian army was answering questions. Apparently they'd only been to the range twice in 5 years. Once at the end of initial training, once at the 3 year mark in his unit. No real NVG training, no night operations training.

Sounds like they might have regressed back to the old USSR days where one dude knew how to drive the trucks and that was it.

I mean, if you're used to the US military with it's "We Own the Night!" attitude and constantly nighttime operations, full color NVG systems, multi-lens shit, you might think that another 'first world power' would be up there too.

Then you think about how much it costs to do all that training (which is why it apparently got the shit cut out of it in the last few years), from troop pay to fuel to bullets to batteries to damaged equipment, and you start to wonder if they're just training their snake eaters and hoping daytime operations are good enough.

You should remember that Russians rely almost entirely on vehicle-based night vision. I don't think they issue goggles to your average infantryman.

There is also some heavier equipment based on motion detection that I think is still officially considered to be classified.

Man I got myself hyped thinking we'd see Russia's new gear in action and all I got is a new uniform for our wargore pictures.

They are scared Batman will stop them. They are safe from him in the day though.

I have to say the Russians have been surprising me with how restricted and passive they seem to be acting when it comes to civilians, idk why just thought they'll be a lot more indiscriminate with running and gunning when rushing for the capital.

The Ukrainians aren't Chechens or other subspecies likely to explode on contact.

As much as they dunk on each other Ukrainians and Russians are the same people. If you speak one language not only can you understand the other, you can communicate too, which is really unusual. It's hard to do war crimes on folks that are just like you. Not that it can't or won't happen, just that I'm not surprised they're being careful with civilians.

The people in charge of Ukraine, that's another issue entirely.

They ate trying to execute a pincer move that is why they are current besieging Kyiv, they need to take it to make it work

Yeah that's kinda what I thought. The US does all their important shit at night and has for a long time. I just kinda assumed the pointy end of Russian elite tacticool operations would showboat that capability too since I think a big part of why this is happening is to prove to the West that they are stronk.

Apparently not.

It kinda shows something interesting to me.

It wasn't that long ago that he would have been just run over and everyone would have shrugged and gone on with their day. You saw that with both invasions of Iraq. You got in the way of the military vehicles, they just shot you and moved on if they thought you might have a satchel charge, ran you over and laughed about it if they didn't.

Now, everyone thinks they're going to be Tiamen Square (or whatever the fuck it was spelled) so they go out there and dance around for a photo-op thinking they won't get run over.

And for the most part, they're right. Even the Russian army isn't running them over, when not too long ago even his neighbors would have pointed and laughed at him.

Shows how attitudes about military operations have changed.

I have to imagine Putin told the military to go out of their way not to fuck with civilians, will make an occupation a lot more easier when people realize they'll basically be able to live their life as they did before and they have no widespread abuses to seek revenge for. Very much a velvet glove approach.

Yea I agree, but given that Ukraine is given its civilian's weapons those kinds of orders can get muddy. Suddenly randos filming at the window gets shot because Ivan is under fire and he doesn't have time to check if the dude has a gun.

 

[Yaks]

That's nothing. On the MLP boorus, people are posting illustrations of a ponified Russia fucking a ponified Ukraine.

And you're keeping it to yourself. You weenie.
