Russian Special Military Operation in the Ukraine - Mark IV: The Partitioning of Discussion

[Sister Miriam Godwinson]

Man, I wish we had someone like Elvira Nabiullina as the current US Treasury Secretary or the Federal Reserve Chairman. A pragmatist, she did a magnificent job as the Chairwoman of the Central Bank of Russia in handling Russia's currency and economy in having Russia withstood against over 10 thousand sanctions by the West and established a nearly autarkic nation whose economy has stood afloat.

This is an ideal wartime economy expert. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

It’s over, guys.

Sure am glad Russia only exports oil/gas and not fertilizer, metals, or wheat.

Doesn't Russia manufacture around 90% of the world's Titanium supply as well?

I from a city-state mostly devoid of nature except for a couple of reservoirs. Don’t really want to reveal too much

You kind of did. There aren't that many city states left and there are only 3 that can be described as devoid of nature.

This whole price ceiling is idiotic; Europe will not stop buying Russian oil; they have already been talking about "independence from Russia" since 2014, if not earlier; they will just buy Russian barrels with a Saudi or Indian sticker on them at three times the price as they did before.

And no, India and China are not buying more Russian oil gas because there is no infrastructure to increase supplies, so Russia is building a new pipeline to China, Power of Siberia-3. I remind you that Russia and China are land neighbors and transport by ship is not so important to them. And as for India, maybe all this will finally push the construction of the TAPI gas pipeline, who knows.

This is the most retarded thing I've read in a while... "This report could leave the Russian military red-faced", yes, the brave Reddit army ingeniously coming up with a new strategy to defeat Putler, one that hasn't been used for thousands of years in warfare or anything. And yes, Ruzzia surely sends their most expensive Kinzhals and Oniks missiles to defeat Reddit and NAFO's decoys, I'm sure it never occurred to them to simply use $2000-a-piece 155mm Soviet artillery shells or anything.
It also really cracks me up how narcissistic and self-centered they are to reveal the existence of these decoys, don't think that posting a video like this to own the Ruzzians is gonna make them perhaps take a second, more thorough look at whatever they decide to bomb?
Unbelievable stupidity.

The funniest thing. It's straight out of Russian/Soviet playbook. Which Serbs employed against NATO. Fake bridges, fake armor, fake SAM sites, etc. Out of all sorts of material. With some having their own signatures, both in IR and radio waves spectrum by using simple heat pipes and even bonfire to microwaves and even mimicking radar emissions of SAM sites by using spare radars, along with other makeshift means.

It was very effective coupled with Serbian SAM operators dismaying and disrupting NATO tracking and targeting of Serbian army in Kosovo. And while Serb SAM operators might have fired over something like 700+ surface to air missiles and brought down only a dozen or so planes from manned and mostly unmanned.

The fact is those Serbian SAM systems, that where already familiar and compromised systems to NATO like SA-2, SA-3, SA-6 and SA-9, SA-13 along with some field modded IR guided air to air missiles into a SAM system and bunch of non radar guided AA guns. Still kept NATO pilots on their toes. And interrupted and disrupted NATO air force every time those SAM systems fired. Which allowed Serbs in Kosovo to retaining most of their ground forces and the ability move their forces around.


Decoys and SAM systems is what made NATO eventually force to spread it's bombing out to economic and military targets in Serbia, . . because they're attempt to destroy the Serb military like i said in Kosovo, which was they´re original campaign objective, fail miserably.

And even then Serbs actually did effectively overcame the first NATO bombing campaign of Serbia against at least military targets, but ultimately in the follow up campaign, Serbs were just too badly outmatched to stop the second one especially against civilian targets (in Serbia) due simply that Serbs hadn't the equipment to protect both it´s army in Kosovo and it´s military infrastructure in Serbia along the civilian infrastructure of Serbia.

Anyway

As far as inflatable decoys. For Russians and Swedes it´s nothing new.

Along with decoys for planes and other shit. The Fabric used is capable of reflecting radio waves, radar reflectors can be used along with heat traps and piping to create a IR signature. Fake com traffic can be created, etc, etc.

I'm starting to see a pattern here where the Western world is seriously lacking in the balloon arms race.

Wait a minute...Bloons Tower Defense is a very popular video game, and it stars monkeys (negroes?) defending against balloons...

Is this a globohomo conspiracy to make us racist towards balloons?!

RIA Fan report from recently liberated Yagodnoye and Stupki, North of Artyomovsk. (Ukrainian side claims they still control these areas, you know, the usual) Wagner evacuating civilians, showing the “missing” of AFU and more from Artyomovsk area including interviews with wagner assault units.

All the hot air gets hogged by western politicians.

RTA Novosti correspondents took part in the evacuation of civilians from Bakhmut together with the Wagner PMC https://t.me/llordofwar/87324

Слава антифашистам-освободителям Украины! Пусть рабочие и крестьяне Донбасса и Луганска наконец познают мир, счастье и благополучие!

 

[Feline Supremacist]

Talk of 9-16 brigades being encircled; about 12-14,000 AFU but more importantly brigade HQs being annihilated/captured would be a good win.

[Fatniggo1488]

The most shitposty thing Wagner could do right now would be to let the hohols launch their little counter attack, let it get all the way to Bakhmut, and then encircle their counter attacking units too.

 

[Sneed's Feed And Seed]

If I ever find out who gave them a crate of red bull there'll be trouble.

You'll never take me alive, fucker!

I'd love to sympathize with Ukraine but seeing Nazis get their asses kicked by the Russians in 4K real-time instead of in grainy, jumpy archived footage circa the 1940's gives me a history-buff boner.
Those that do not learn their history...

 

[Anasûrimbor Kellhus]

I can't imagine you Russians tolerating some immigrant in your motherland shitting on your ancestors that died at Stalingrad so open and brazenly.

But here we are with this filth that mostly likely got elected into office by people who ancestors did fight in WW2.

Diversity in its final form.

That's a serious defeat. Typically, HQ units are filled with experienced senior officers who you can't just up and replace.

 

[Blewberry Nausea]

I thought HQ chits just return to the capitol to be reoutfitted.

 

[Feline Supremacist]

Civilians are willingly being evacuated (By Russia/Wagner, not Ukraine) ahead of closing the cauldron and then destroying whatever's in there.

“evacuated” to Siberia maybe! A just army would leave them in the danger zone to get killed because something something slava Ukrainia.
