The presumed explanation for these tactics (and losses) was that Russia didn't have enough PGMs for those aircraft to operate from higher altitude.

I get that Russia is going to do Russia things, but it makes no sense for them to squander pilots and aircraft if they have a good stock of PGMs.

RUMINT I heard last year was the Yekaterinburg plant was running round the clock shifts for months. I have zero inclination on their manufacturing capacity, but the consensus among those tracking PGM stocks say Russia has more than people realize.

I was referring to cruise missiles, not tactical level PGMs like guided bombs. For the most part they use Krasnopol guided artillery for that role since the Russians never expected to have air dominance.

How many more guided missle ships sit in the black sea or Sevastopol? Is it a matter of targeting data?

The UK announced that they will be supplying anti-ship missiles to UA, so they will have more to play with soon.  And Moskva was the protector of all of the smaller ships in the fleet, with her supposedly superior air defense.  The balance of the fleet will be sitting ducks.

I also think there is an enormous amount of corruption between Western leaders and both Russia and Ukraine. I also don't think all Ukranians are angels. Does that mean I don't support them kicking Russias ass? Fuck no.



Fair stance, but to also be fair, 99% of people that start in with the "Ukraine is corrupt" line also say "I can't choose a side because both are corrupt" which is as retarded as not being able to acknowledge every government on the planet is corrupt.

1) I can't believe how shitty the video from their FLIR turret looks. Like something from 1991.

2) I can't believe how much oscillation seems to occur in their wing pylons. I have seen them shake almost as much in flight too. Can anyone(@AeroE) confirm/explain if that's on purpose? I know F-16 wings do better with some load on them, but Jesus, those pylons on the Ka-52 are just flopping around.

I suspect their supply is limited, and all remaining ships will be on high alert.  Waiting until conditions are right is a wise move in my opinion.

The Captain is the last man off the ship, in other words he should not leave before all living crew have abandoned ship.  In this case he probably got blown up by one of the Neptunes or when the ordnance started to cook off.

Unless you are the captain of the Costa Concordia. Then all crew abandons prior to the passengers. But that could be an Italian thing.

We didn't - we are donating ~1000 of M1117 to Greece.  I think Ukrainians could've made better use of them.

If we want to start a thread/threads about politicians are POSs, our government sucks a bag of dicks, that many agendas of the left is destroying this country, you wont get a argument from me. I for one dont like us to get involved with most of the world's affairs. I think Afghanistan should have been a special operations-intel operation, targeting and destroying Al-Qaeda vs 100k troops, attempt to turn a stone age populace into a western democracy. Iraq 2003 simply should not have happened. Saddam was a POS, but we fucked that region up more than it was, planted a seed for ISIS etc. However this conflict in Ukraine? The kids dying, the women getting raped, absolute murder. Russia's absolute shit reputation in how they conduct business. You cant cover that up with your hatred of US politics are the "left", this is way bigger. At least INMHO.

I have heard podcasts from ex military guys, one being a ex group dude whos heard the stories, seen some sick shit, and when you add it up you cant make this shit up. Im not saying everything is true. But you got people with no dog in the fight that are coming back, and saying hey I fought in the sandbox for 6 tours as infantry-sf-ranger and the shit im seeing over there I cant compare too. The loss of words. Its because they are seeing ww2 level of loss of life and brutality. I dont know, maybe im a fucking retard, im just a ex door kicker, but if there was one war/conflict that does need our support.. its this one. your entitled to think differently, but this is the sword im on.

I worked with the lead importer that managed to score of the German G-3 magazines we all got. More than 5 million of them was disposed as surplus.

The Export ministry official that approved it incorrectly assumed that it was going to be melted or recycled. He was shocked when in reality, us Americans will be buying it in the handful.

In the end, their entire government is anti-gun, anti-freedom, anti-military to the point that if anyone asked them to go suck cock to make ends meet and solve world peace, they would actually do it.

Pictured: Wife who was recorded 'ordering her Russian soldier husband to rape Ukrainian women' as it emerges he was wounded in fighting



A wife who was recorded giving her Russian soldier husband permission to rape Ukrainian women during Vladimir Putin's invasion has been pictured, as it emerged the man has been wounded in the fighting.

Earlier this week, Kyiv's security forces released an audio clip of a conversation between a couple, who have now been identified as Roman Bykovsky and his wife Olga Bykovskaya by Radio Liberty.

In the recording, the woman - allegedly Bykovskaya - is heard telling the man that he has her permission to rape Ukrainian women while he is serving in Russia's invading forces, so long as he does not tell her and uses contraception.


The shocking 30-second clip was released on April 12 as Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russian troops of carrying out 'hundreds of rapes' including sexual assaults of small children in his country











They also learned that the couple had moved to the Russian occupied Crimean peninsula, approximately around 2018.

Olga's social media account meanwhile was open (until it was deleted on April 13). On her account, she was shown in pictures with the man identified as Roman Bykovsky. It also showed the pair share a 4-year-old child together.

Radio Liberty tried calling the couple using the numbers that were discovered.

Roman reportedly answered, and denied that he was still in the Kherson region, and once he learned that he was being contacted by reporters also denied he was the man in the audio recording. However, Radio Liberty said his voice was a match.

Olga Bykovska also answered, and confirmed to Radio Liberty that her husband was in Sevastopol being treated for an injury. After revealing that, she quickly cut the phone call off. Her social media account was deleted soon after that.

The 30-second audio clip of the conversation was posted to the telegram channel of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) on Tuesday.

'Wives of Russian aggressors call on their husbands to rape Ukrainian women,' the agency wrote on Telegram, along with the clip.

'This shocking interception by the SBU reflects the moral values ​​not only of the occupiers but also of their relatives, 80% of whom now support the war in Ukraine,' the agency claimed in its description of the recording.

2) reconstruction of the education system to view Russia favorably in history

3) stop all military modernization programs started by pro-USA Yuschenko (also poisoned by the Kremlin) who he "defeated" in the election (I witnessed that first hand and was told by Ukrainian military officials at the Ukrainian embassy in D.C.)

4) Cut all cooperation ties with the west in business, etc.

5) make Russian equal to Ukrainian as a national language status - most people don't know that the reason there are generations of Ukrainian "Russian speakers" (which does NOT mean they are Russians or pro-Russian) is because of HUNDREDS of years of oppression by Russian to wipe out the Ukrainian language, culture, etc.

6) Load the Rada (Ukrainian parliament) with members of the Communist Party of Ukraine, Party of Regions, and other left-leaning pro-Russian parties

7) Station Russian troops on several Ukrainian military bases for "cooperation" purposes (that is the big reason that Yanukovych was thrown out)

And of course he was against EU membership or ties. (I don't like the EU sovereignty robbing government either but that wasn't his reason for opposing it).

I was being facetious and mocking people that think the Russian puppet stooge government was overthrown by our idiot US State department. Somehow without the involvement of Ukrainians that faced rifle fire bare chested to throw the bums out in the Maidan uprising.

I was trying to be sarcastic and my message was lost, the Ukrainians are brave as hell and I meant no offense.

Fuck Russia, fuck Putin and his little boat Moskva and fuck yanukobitch.
