Because it's tiresome hearing people dickride that obsolete piece of shit that has ZERO place in a battlefield in the modern day. We have much better airframes for lobbing missiles, and since any semi-modern MBT isn't going to get damaged to any real degree by that 30mm gun, the only use for it would be against soft-skinned vehicles, which then begs the question of why not use a helicopter or bring in something like the A-29?

Or.... Even better... The A-7

A modern A-7 would be an excellent COIN/CAS jet, if you need a jet for speed vs a turboprop

It's 20mm canon is almost as good as the 30mm and actually had a HUD from 1967 onwards. If I remember correctly it's the first USAF jet to have a modern HUD.

I personally love that A-10 haters claim it's obsolete and would have no application in a modern war, then the Ukraine war happens and you have a 40 mile long convoy of Russian trucks standing still and begging for a flyby

Ukraine tried that an lost two (I believe) Su-25s on camera as they attacked convoy in the South on the first day of the war

The Ukrainians had plenty of SU 25 which are perfectly capable ground attack craft and alot faster, and somehow they never smashed up that convoy

They tried to.... And got shot down

Nigga is delusional. The turret got tossed a significant distance from the tank, you can even see the damage from the explosion in the pictures. It didn't came off during the fight nor while driving.

Badly made British tanks are no match for the power of strong socialist Soviet engineering.
Little man will feel the wrath of 9M133 Kornet.
He's gonna get his dumper pumped by a Russian man while crying about how British engineering is superior to subhuman slavic engineering and all a bunch of orcs

Piggy getting his (probably loose and floppy) bussy destroyed by STRONK RUSSIAN PORK CUTLASS as he seethes and cries about British military equipment getting obliterated by Russian weapons in Ukraine is peak KINO.

The only way it would be better is if that North Korean ATGM AFV vaporizes a Challenger 2... On camera

Bro the Norks being in the mix is funny as fuck. I expect Pig to sperg HARD if they actually start making gains and don't just insta die because they're all midgets lol.

 

[Sleazy Car Salesman]

They aren't Norks, they're Laotians (Are you Chinese or Japanese?) and they probably aren't going to Ukraine. Russian and Laos are holding LAROS 2024 which is a joint training exercise.

 

[Tomoko]

they're all midgets

This sounds like a dumb question but
Wouldn't that help them in the battle field?
I remember a while back seeing a documentary on the vietnam war on netflix and in a interview with a US veteran, he told a story how he was there to assist the South Vietnamese. And before a battle a commander told him to fuck off cause he was a big tall american and the snipers could easily spot him and get him (the commander) killed as a result. They lost that battle and said commander was almost killed, but he had a point.

It isn't in the jungles of Nam. It's in the flat plains of Europe. It's going to suck to carry ammo for them since they're smaller and weaker.

Setting up ambushes and pungee traps is also harder. A lot more open area and way less jungle for the enemy to wander into and get confused in. Also more open area for them to step on mines by accident. I don't have high hopes for the North Koreans bro. Assuming they bring their own kit, it's years behind literally everyone else fighting rn, both Russia and Ukraine. For fucks sake they still list the PPSh-41 in inventory:


Literal WW2 technology that got phased out in the war. They still have these.

You say that but I've so far seen both Mosins and Maxims used in the war, which are both 19th century designs. I also have seen both PPSh-41s and PPS-43s issued in the war as well, primarily on second-line troops and local militia units. Though, the most likely piece of kit that NK would bring from their own inventories would be the Type 88, which is their own homebrew AK-74 clone. After all, no point complicating logistics when you already have both the necessary production facilities and logistical compability with existing Russian kit.

All I'm saying is my hopes for them are at floor level. I'm not expecting much. If they do make gains though, I expect Piggy to squeal and holler HARD.

Oh of course. I don't expect them to have much of an impact since it's just one division's worth of dudes in a fight where both sides are wielding hunderds of thousands of troops around. Still, I see it as a win-win for both Russia and NK because one side gets an extra division of dudes to play around without having to draft more Russians and the other gets valuable experience and veterans who then become the future instructors of Juche military out of it.

Well NK only gets vets if they don't die in a zerg rush of retarded glory. As much as I want Piggy to squeal, I'm realistic in what Nork tactics are. They might just be sent on landmine clearing duty, or have their entire division wiped out by artillery and water cooled Maxims as they try to rush a trench or something. Again, I have zero optimism for the North Koreans. But I will laugh if they cause a upset.

Until the A-10 gets shot down long before it gets close enough to even fire a Maverick. In a real war, when the enemy can actually shoot back, the A-10 will wind up being seen as a titanium coffin for its pilots, nothing more.

A-10 [and SU-25] were designed and made for the Cold War going hot with the expectation there will be no air cover or support. As all of their sides' fighters and interceptors will be beelining toward the opposing bombers, fighters and interceptors.

 

[Sleazy Car Salesman]

Kinda yes and kinda no. Orientals excel at raiding and hit and run which a small stature helps with but a larger frame means (generally) a stronger person with more carrying capacity.

You know North Koreans don't even know what homosexuals actually are such a foreign concept to them that they don't even know when LGBT is and had to be explained to a guy after he escaped North Korea.
Little piggy is angry that the ripped North Korean men don't even acknowledge the existence of homosexuality that's how much they find it disgusting

 

[AeroGavin Rossdale]

And better ability to endure long stretches of physical hardship.

If that image of the Chally 2's turret blown entirely open is legitimate it's entirely possible that the ammo stored in the turret detonated and overwhelmed the blowout panels. British made ammo is multi part and kept split across the body of the tank. The HESH projectiles and the propellant charges are supposed to be kept in the body of the tank, the inert APFSDS projectiles are kept in the turret per British doctrine. If I had to hazard a guess as to what prompted the turret exploding, I would imagine that the Ukrainians were keeping the HESH shells in the turret for ease of access and the rear of the turret got blown to kingdom come when it was hit. Considering the mix of medium and light armor the Russians seem to be fielding all over the place, it's not unreasonable that this crew decided to go heavy on HESH since APFSDS is overkill on light and medium armor. If I assume worst possible decision making, it's also not impossible that the crew of that tank had both propellant and HESH in the rear of the turret.

All of this assumes that this legitimately is a Challenger 2 that was destroyed in combat and not demolished to prevent capture.

In terms of design, the Challenger 2 and most of its NATO contemporaries were initially designed around the premise that they would be dug in, hull down, turrets poking out over cover to engage the more numerous Warsaw Pact armored forces. This would enable infantry and artillery to dig in further back to prevent breakthroughs. The times have changed and the Challenger layout was never updated to reflect more modern warfare including drones. A hypothetical fifth generation MBT is likely to have a much more even set up of armor to prevent the kind of turret tossing shenanigans we've seen in Ukraine.

There's a reason just about every other modern tank uses single piece ammo and keeps all of it in either wet storage in the bottom of the hull or blowout enabled armored compartments.

PPSh-41

it's a perfectly functioning submachine gun I don't see the issue people act like these 1940 machine guns the 1940 submachine guns make you any less dead
hell the United states still has some M2 brownings with 1950s markings in inventory.

Hell one of my friends who is in the US National Guard when the heavy machine guns they were issued with at 1945 markings.

Same with Korea really doesn't need to attack South Korea directly South korea's demographics are collapsing faster than North Korea I think the demographics are like 0.65

Just a reminder, the Ukies have been making great use of Crimean War-vintage Maxim Guns for most of the duration of the war.

Given enough time they'll be reduced to issuing smoothbores to their regular army of Circassian mercenaries.

I've been wondering, how will Piggy react in the event of a Trump victory? Will we see a TDS-like meltdown?
