Quoted: Okay. You're right. There is zero proof that Ukraine "destroyed" the Kilo-class submarine, "Rostov-on-Don" or the Landing Craft. However, it WOULD be a significant event if they did, correct? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: There aren't any detailed pics of the Moskva either. See its all a grand conspiracy man After all, it's not like UKR hasn't created fake images to claim damaging ships before https://checkyourfact.com/2023/06/01/fact-check-image-damaged-russian-warship/ Russian intelligence collection ship Ivan Khurs after attack.#UkraineRussiaWar #UkraineWar #Ukraina #UkraineWillWin #UkrainianArmy #Ukrainians #RussiaisATerroistState #PutinWarCriminal #RussiaIsANaziState #Russian #Zelenskyy pic.twitter.com/r7nx8V9kyH Idlib Frontline (@fatihjalal20) May 26, 2023 The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense released a video claiming to show one of the sea drones hitting the ship, the outlet reported. The image claims to show the Ivan Khurs damaged after the attack However, the image is over two decades old. Through a reverse image search, Check Your Fact found that the image is from the USS Cole, not a Russian warship. The image was taken after the USS Cole was hit by a suicide bomb attack in 2000 and published in NBC News. Images and videos of the Ivan Khurs emerged in the aftermath of the attack, showing the ship sailing into Sevastopol under its own power with no visible damage, according to open-source intelligence (OSINT) analyst Benjamin Pittet. this is going to hurt your feelz.... "Russian authorities confirm the Minsk landing ship and and Rostov-on-Don submarine were "completely destroyed" https://twitter.com/UKikaski/status/1701890251306762666?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Only Ukr claims this. Not a single legitimate news source has claimed that. Okay. You're right. There is zero proof that Ukraine "destroyed" the Kilo-class submarine, "Rostov-on-Don" or the Landing Craft. However, it WOULD be a significant event if they did, correct? It would, but not to the level you boys think. The entire Northern, Pacific and Baltic fleets (except the Minsk which was transferred to the BSF) are intact. If the need arises, don't you think Putin would move a few more? |

I pretty sure that ship is an LST
For my Naval bretheran: a craft is carried by a ship. Being a ship it implies signaficant capability and cost. |

Do discount those two decades or your recent ones? View Quote I have to defend non-specific positions you've assigned to me over an apparent 20 year obsession with me before you (or I guess he?) will address the point about whether or not the transfer of multiple landing ships to the Black Sea fleet indicates anything about their importance to Russian naval operations in the current war? lol, ok. |

Quoted: The winner of the worst poster is not under debate. View Quote @PolarBear416 is still accessing GD. To his credit he won't deny he's not American (since that's a likely lie.) He just ignores the charge and pretends he's American. @1Andy2 has floated around GD for a long time. Not always posts I agree with, but ones I read. Why? He's been, in my opinion generally responsible and reasonable if, in my view incorrect on occasion. |

Quoted: Not in the slightest.

Quoted: 7 out of 31 countries actually make their commitment. The thought is the 4 new ones will.

Quoted: NATO hasn't been pulling its weight since the average poster in this thread has been in junior high View Quote True. To me, NATO wants to be seen like a rural fire department coop where everybody chips in to the common defense, but it seems in many cases just a way to distribute US wealth to foreigners in exchange for some of their sovereignty and being close to the Russian Federation to 'contain' it |

Here’s the view to the right. It got hot enough for decks to collapse and steel windows to sag to the point of almost being closed. Want to place bets on how long it takes them to gut that thing to the bare hull and rebuild? They won’t. They don’t have the shipbuilding capability to do it in Sevastopol, and they can’t get it out of there. Poland built that landing ship anyways so it’s not like they’re going to tow it back to the shipyard that built it and have it rebuilt. Poland will tell them to fuck off. That’s a total loss. |
