Soldiers wearing civilian clothes and living in civilian apartments makes me believe they want to slow the Ukrainian armed forces to a crawl. Ukraine should destroy gas, electric and water supplies to the city now. Winter is coming.... |

Iran is in it to gain something from Russia ..hopefully history will show they chose poorly But something is in it for the Iranians besides money I agree, and I believe Putin promised assistance with Iran's nuclear weapons program. - maybe scientific guidance - maybe highly refined Uranium, or - maybe functioning nuclear weapons (with or without a uranium core). - maybe help getting an Iranian nuke on one of the Iranian's ballistic missiles.

My buddies wife is working for a merry maid type of company in budapest with other Ukranian refugee ladies when she told me that they encountered airBnB flats being rented by orcs escaping the war
 She can see that they are trying their best to get funds from Sber bank and other Russian banks in Hungary and also living pretty frugally. She knows that in one of the better flats is Russian Dumas son and daughter and this guys all pro nuke Ukraine. I told her to report it to the UA embassy and let their intelligence people know. She is amazed that they think and say out aloud about Hungarians while they are in the flats cleaning it. They are not our friends........ I told my Kepviselo multiple times about Orcs in Hungary and her office keeps brushing me off. I've reported this to TEK, Hungary's counter intelligence unit and anti terrorist unit. I will see what happens. |

Israel Shin Bet and Mossad knew about Hezbollah was gonna take out the Marine Barracks and the French paratrooper, they got intelligence on it and they didn't give the warning to the US or France.

No. If anyone follows the actual history of Israel/USA defense measures, they will understand that the USA does the heavy lifting when times get hard, Israel does surgical strikes when needed. They are our unsinkable aircraft carrier in the middle East. Reducing their stockpiles of conventional weapons is not needed, or even wanted, now. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Shockergd: So........ A friend of mine years ago was working for a few independent companies was working on high-loiter military drones. He informed me today, out of the blue, he's heading to Ukraine to help with drone production/ideation/etc for drone based weapon platforms. QUITE interesting, the guy is very, very smart, and has been working on hair-brained schemes for space-planes for the past 5 years, in the 5-ish years prior, his military drones were pretty fantastic (Imagine two engine, two-stroke drones with 2000+ miles of range, with enough payload to do something useful). I, generally, am curious how much of a conversation I can have with him (Who's an Australian national) with regards to weapons and blowing stuff up? I can't get in trouble with ITAR or similar for giving him ideas on how to blow people up, can I? Thoughts are not regulated by ITAR |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By borderpatrol: Israel has many options that they are not shy to use. The US isn't shy either when it comes to using Israel as its proxy. There has been a very even hand when it comes to dealing with Iran for over 40 years now. Their behavior both at home and abroad has been reprehensible. They have never been called to the carpet and punished anywhere close to the level of their disrepute. Selective assassinations of chief military and nuclear personnel isn't anywhere close to dealing with them as a nation. If they continue on the course of becoming a nuclear power, I suspect they will be set on fire and turned to rubble. Lately their citizens seem to be finally fed up with medieval religious practices, they naturally return to the human fold without any outside intervention. I'm not holding my breath. Will the Xiden Admin. support Israel if they decide to strike Iran? I think not. I bet "we" have warned Israel to play nice while we help Iran get nukes. For some reason the FBHO/Xiden gang are obsessed with helping Iran while hurting Israel. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By jpk33: This may draw in the Israelis to protect their interests by using preemptive strikes inn Iran. Yes. I think (prior to this latest RU/IRCG merger) Israel has been playing it cool. They have intel deep in Iran and had a reliable timetable for when Iran could produce some nukes. But I'm sure Russia has totally throwed that out the window and contingency plans for "5 years from now" are being moved up drastically. I dont think Israel could so anything decisive without the full support of the USA, even with the help of the Saudi's etc. I bet they are trying to hold on until the 2024 elections but may run out of time. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Dominion21: Just speculation here, but if the Ukrainians had any exposure to belt fed grenade launchers before the Mk-19, it was with this full-auto only, Russian 30mm grenade launcher: http://www.military-today.com/firearms/ags_30_l3.jpg https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftse2.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOIP.Hnbgo-P0H_nFltLBlxFk2gHaFj%26pid%3DApi&f=1&ipt=1fabec86965fd39190617fecbef9474b221608a44310580c2b28b98f284a01ec&ipo=images https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AGS-30 It has a 2,100 meter effective range. Almost every photo I’ve seen of this thing shows it angled at maximum elevation. Seems like the Ukrainians (an probably the Russian’s) think of grenade launchers as indirect-fire weapons, mostly for area denial. Or, maybe like a mini full-auto mortar. US soldiers I’ve seen firing the Mk-19 all seem to focus much more on aiming the gun as carefully as they can, and using short bursts or even single shots at targets they can see. Even the videos where US troops are under fire, their training kicks in, and they are firing controlled, aimed bursts. But: whatever works for the Ukrainians. I am happy to send them more Mk-19s to use on Orcs. My favorite Ukrainian use of the Auto grenade launcher was from earlier this year was them shooting it at max theoretical range, and correcting fire from a small hobby drone on one lone Russian, fire a shot or two observe impact, again, again until the drone guy on his Iphone yells, right there, right there!! and dude lets the rest of the belt rip. War is sometimes like a big college prank. |

"failure to maintain" doesn't mean "the nukes don't go boom" it means the yields are lowered from their design expectations. 1MT becomes 200KT, or maybe down to 100KT. The end state potentially turns a nuke warhead into a simple dirty bomb. The only positive benefit "failure to maintain" buys the west is if their launch vehicles fail to launch, or self-destruct on the way to the target. |

Well I stand corrected, thank you good sir... you just never know lol lol, me too, I'm surprised how people can check weather and time lapse satellite imagery, then geo locate the exact field the artillery piece was in and look at how the field was maintained until one artillery piece got struck and the weather conditions at the time of the strike.
