The DPR restored not one, but two WW2 tanks during the Donbas War, IIRC, one IS-2 and one IS-3.


They claimed this IS-3 was restored, managed to shoot at a military checkpoint (where the fuck they got the ammo for it is anyone's guess), kiling/wounding several Ukrainians, and then they abandoned it.
Probably wasn't that difficult, the Russians didn't even retire all the IS series tanks until the 90s, so spares probably weren't that hard to find. Also easier to nigger rig old equipment compared to modern stuff.
 
Anyone read war day or the 2020 commission report since those are my recommendations
Yes. read Warday when it first came out in 1984. First book I ever bought at list price. Very impressive, authors did a lot of research.

Have put The 2020 Commission Report on my Amazon wish list. Thanks!

Now the only thing I want to see is the juggernaut that is object 279 in action.
The fact that the hull reminds me of a crab triggers my fight or flight response, and supposedly being designed to survive nuclear war only makes it more unholy.
Too weird to live, too unique to be allowed to die.

Great the 2020 is also a alternate history

Patron, the EOD dog who found more than 200 explosives since the start of the war on February 24, has been awarded the Medal For Military Service by President Zelenskiy.

Here is this video:
I couldn't understand why I found this video funny, apart from assigning the title of hero to a dog, of course, but then I remembered that service dogs notice not only the smell of explosives but also drugs.

Trudeau can't keep getting away with this!

Trudeau can pay for unlimited dog chow with confiscated shekels the State stole from all those protesting truckers.
 
>Russia holds back to avoid collateral
Media: "Russia's so retarded and weak lololol what a joke army"
>Russia starts actually fighting
Media: "Russia's full of horrible monsters how dare they this is a war crime.
Poor Russia is global victim here. So unfair meanie western journalist pig dogs make them invade neighbour and rape and burn children.
 
Can either side pls hurry and win this war pls so the stonks can go up again? This is slow and pathetic, with a distinct lack of war porn.
Stocks are down mostly because FED stopped printing money and will continue to increase interest rates for quite a while.

On a flip side, if you buy now and sell in 2-4 years, you are likely to make 2-3 times profit.
 
Is this some kind of sabotage? Because honestly I wouldn't doubt that the media people who are asked to produce these video pieces and billboards are from an art/design background and thus are more likely to be libs and against the war. If anyone comes up to them they just go "ahhh dude I got a useless arts degree I don't know about military history, next time if you find any mistakes get back to me and I'll fix it".

Exactly the case, except unironically.
That or some statesman decides to be a penny pincher instead of getting people who actually do their research.

Remember videos where people were protesting in front of a military enlistment office in Zakarpatskaya province, which is right next to Hungary?
Here is a 101st territorial defense brigade from Zakarpatye that were sent to the frontlines in LPR on 26th of April.
Their armaments are assault rifles, lmgs and shovels. They were not trained for combat. They are sitting ducks for AFU to tell where enemy mortar and heavy artillery fire is coming from(they think). They had been there for 4(not sure) days and they haven't been given any objectives. Low on meds. And evidently, on morale too. Сало Уронили.

Reminder that territorial defense "Тероборона" are forces made up of locals that took up arms and were given some basic training. They are supposed to uphold local ordnung, protect important building, man guard posts, etc.


Красиво.

Putin said that war ends 9th of may and it didnt! I can no longer support side lying so much. I now fully support team Ukraine!
Should have asked for a year, my Polish brother.

On the topic of decorated dogs used for propaganda purposes, here is a video from today exhibition of captured Ukrainian equipment in Lugansk.

Reporter(R): In the center of Lugansk peoples militia exposing trophy vehicles of UAF. Here is APC with camouflage specific to Ukrainian vehicles, but special attention of people of Lugansk attracted to this armored car KAZAK, which peoples militia got almost without damage.
Man(M): We lack another victory day which we will get soon, i hope, and we will celebrate TWO...
Women: We are simply certain of that.
M: Yes, we are certain that we will celebrate two victory days. My grandfather, both of them, fought until the end[of Great Patriotic War], i have all of their award documents, medals, orders, all the way to Berlin, and i think we also will achieve this victory and we will have two holidays.
R: Svetlana, please, tell us about your dog.
Svetlana: This dog was born in 2013 and was placed into animal shelter as pedigree dog, but, sadly, war has doted the i’s and she was made , for the duration of the war, a working dog. She, when we was going into a bread factory to get bread, she, her mother and two of her sisters were severely wounded, and i was wounded there, they were covering me from shrapnel. When i heard the whistle of projectile, i order the dogs to lie down, they lay down, shrapnel started hitting my legs, i screamed, they could not handle that and started covering me and they were strongly torn by fragments.
Dog fragment starts at 0:47 (for translation of this fragment go straight to Svetlana).

This retardation was common even before the war. They just take picture that will look good on the poster and jam it all together. Common men will not see the difference (to be honest, i would not see the difference ether, if it is not pointed out to me). I believe there was an example form Poland, where there was Dirlewanger Brigade during suppression of Warsaw uprising photo used in their own poster. So it's just common Slavic stupidity.
