I've heard from some analysts that air defense systems are meant to be paired with compatible systems, like Ukraine right now has S-300, BUKs, etc, they all compliment each other and form a comprehensive layered system that was designed to communicate with each other.
Quit calling them Buk. It's an SA-11.

But you are correct, they operate their air defense in layers. Not as big a reliance on AAA anymore but the Russians have a far better Anti-Air setup than the West does. Then again, if the Luftwaffe had done the same amount of tactical missions on the West as it did the Soviets, we'd likely see similar doctrine.


SA-21 S400/SA-10 S300 (long range)
SA-11 Buk (medium range)
SA-22 Pantsir & SA-19 Tunguska(med/close range)
SA-15 Tor (low altitude close range)
SA-8 & SA-13 (short range IR)

And there's all kinds of shit the Russians are working on that modifies the coverage and capabilites, but that's a basic rundown of it

Zelensky and his locusts eating Europe. I wonder who is the artist?
 
Ukranian Armed forces under Russian mortar fire, this video was just posted, but everyone knows this was recorded back in february, when the ruZZians still had artillery and mortar rounds, thank god they quickly ran out of every weapon and ammo so this will never happened again

Any normal person would feel solidarity and empathy for such a courageous people defending their lands from barbarian invading scum, at the price of their limbs, mental stability, blood and lives.
Any normal person would feel empathy towards the retarded Russian that was put in this hellhole by his greedy elites and won't get SHIT from it.
You know, in the past, if you went to fight for the Romans in Dacia or something, you would get land and some ho to suck your dick and give you children.
Not that long ago, you'd get a nobility title, land and would ascend the hierarchies in the court of some shitty king of France or Bonglads.
If you went with the Arabs at war when they built an empire you could take some slaves, got land, and plunder.
What these Russians get if they win?
NOTHING.

Just wait until Russia starts using these:

Russia wants to dump its ass on Ukraine and have the $4 million missile-janny clean every single last turd. :story:
Cheap zerg tactics are unironically devastating to a bloated and expensive military, that's how you bankrupt western powers

Bakhmut, late last month, from the AFU position



I could see that working. Just need $300-400 worth of RC parts, some plywood, and a can of spray paint.
I want at least one to have TROON HUNTER 3000 written on it

There are not enough rainbows in the world for an idea like that. The Arabs tried the zerg method on the Israelis and it never worked out.
Warfare is constantly evolving, powers must adapt or die. Expensive armor ruled the battlefield not so long ago, now we live in the era of cheap drones and the return of trenches.

Maybe Russia and Ukraine are, but neither has the kind of toys the US military gets to play with. I doubt the cheap retail drones would be able to fly in a fight with the US and its full suite of electronic warfare capability.

That equipment is extremely expensive and hard to replace, so you just overwhelm it with cheap trash. Both the US and Russia have DEWs, there's a reason nobody is using them. It would be an expensive waste of shiny tech and would be a hit to morale when they're destroyed without doing much.
(And by cheap drones I don't mean cheap retail drones, I mean cheap military drones. Anything that can withstand simple radio jamming.)

Oh wow I wonder if there are any factors that make that conflict different from this one! Oh no I don’t because I have no brain like a dumb ukie shill lol!

Considering the toys the US Army prefers to play with are doggie masks, ropes, dildos and cock cages they're more likely to inflict hoarse throats from laughter and several sides in orbit than legit mass casualties on the Russian Federation.

In liberated Kherson, Jewish leaders are being accused of collaboration with Russia

"b-b-but Zelensky is jewish! Azov has jewish members! I swear, we aren't Nazis"

Saudi Arabia does, and have been using US supplied air defense equipment in their war against Yemen.

In 2018, the Houthis fired seven allegedly Iranian made missiles at Riyadh. Saudi Arabia used US supplied MIM-104 Patriot missiles in an attempt to intercept them. This was the result:



Incidentally, I've seen some of this video footage reuploaded with the audio removed and the posters claiming that it's a Russian S-300 failing in this current war, in spite of the fact that this video is four years old.

In 2019, the Houthis used Iranian made suicide drones to attack Saudi oil infrastructure in Abqaiq and Khurais, shutting down 50% of Saudi Arabia's oil output. The location was protected by both American Patriot systems and Swiss Skyguard systems. Both failed to intercept the incoming drones.

For those who don't know, the Russian Geran-2 suicide drone is the Iranian Shahed-136 drone, meaning that the Russians are fielding equipment that has a proven track record of bypassing US made air defense equipment. Also for reference, a Geran-2 has an estimated cost of $10,000 - $50,000. An MIM-104 Patriot interceptor costs between $1 million - $6 million depending on the version, and at least two are usually fired per hostile target.

Since the Geran-2 is apparently autonomous, I'm not sure what electronic warfare equipment could be used against them after they've been launched, so that's unlikely to make any difference. Maybe if Russia had to resort to using remote controlled quadcopters, US supplied ECM stuff would matter. But so long as Russia can maintain its supply of Geran-2s, and possibly develop newer autonomous drones, I don't see EW equipment solving this problem.

That is probably not the whole story, I imagine more rural parts of Russia are feeling a bit more of a squeeze but goddamn, it's almost like they're showing off.


For real, though, does this look like an economy that is 'about to collapse due to devastating sanctions'? They look like they're having the time of their life over there.

Someone earlier on this thread said this raccoon was 'cringe propaganda' and I hope this person chokes on a dick. Imagine hating on a raccoon.


These are really informative and entertaining btw, thank you!

Heavily subsidized food at the expense of dwindling economic reserves.

For supposedly ineffective sanctions, Lavrov and Peskov seem to cry like a little bitch about them all the time.

I love the VDV raccoon, everyone here thinks of them as pests but the Russians have tamed him and made him into an adorable mascot!

First thing I thought of when I saw that F-35 video was "woman pilot". I just want to get that thought down somewhere.
