Ummm...my dude have you not seen the picture of the shell of the cluster rocket launched from this exact platform which was stuck nose first in a hole no bigger than a manhole cover? These aren't LRBMS maybe MRBMS but I would have to look up the cutoff between short and medium range. They are no where close to that big.

The smallest one weighs 3600 pounds, a ballistic dud hit on a building that size would be expected to include powdered cement at the point of impact, at least shattering of the 2nd wall, and a lot more structural damage than what is shown.

Roughly the same as planting it's nose a few feet into street.




Meanwhile, russia fired thousands of artillery rounds an hour at central Kiev for 6 hours straight today.

No thats literally your ignorance and refusal to look at anything which doesnt conform with your chosen propaganda. You sir are either extremely helpless ignorant or have some ulterior motive for not accepting reality.

Yup, that's the russian propaganda about unbrainwashed folks.

There have been a large number of of Belarus citizens actually joining the Ukraine military. I got the impression that after the war those people would return to Belarus to take care of the NTAC 2.0 compliant leader they have there.

So you got nothing...

Just the Swedish pilots and the Russian pilots - so that is something contrary to your dismissal. You seem to forget its not the first time Russia has done this to Sweden in addition to constantly threatening to nuke countries (cause they apparently have a 3rd world country military).

Completely fake russian propaganda 'victim'.

This is supposedly in Marioupol, the city that russia has all but wiped off the map over the course of a month, known as Ukraine's Alamo.

The same city where the evacuation trains and busses were bombed by russia, and the same city where russia 'kidnapped' tens of thousands of civilians and took them to russia.

The same city that has been 100% surrounded by russians for a month, and controlling all access to for a month.

Weak.

Yup, it is Mariupol and I just finished watching the video after posting it.

The video showed every bit of destruction you mentioned. You didn't even watch it because I was watching it at 1.5 speed and you would have had to finish 5 minutes before me.

So, Now I know you are a clown or a shhhh... rhimes with bill

You are not worth my time.

I stopped when he claimed the truck with mines were Russians.

That video was captured/found at one of the bases they captured and posted last week.

a reply to: PatriotGames4u

I guess you didn't even bother to look at the date it was uploaded. Nice try.

Actually, it was a pitiful attempt.

I am ignoring you from now on. Just letting you know.

Are you unaware that russia has been building an enormous minefield north east of Kiev for more than a week?

Could be, like so much else transpiring in Ukraine veracity of the facts can be rather hard to establish i suppose.

Apparently the design of the heavy machine gun has changed little since the first world war.

Meaning as long as the thing is in working order it will mow down infantry and take out unarmoured vehicles in the same to similar manner as they did in the great war.

If Russia has resorted to using technicals over there tanks its probably do with fuel efficiency and/or supply line issues.

Agreed, plus they may be using them to patrol for ambush squads coming from areas that the russian military vehicles can't traverse.

That is the main Ukrainian tactic that's been so devastating to the russians.

Well spring is pretty much here.

I imagine all that melting snow and ice that's now turned to mud might be rather an issue depending on the terrain.

Another aspect of this "special military exercise" Putin and his minions have obviously failed to consider.

If memory serves it was piss poor weather conditions and unrealistic supply lines that contributed to Adolf's army being stopped in its tracks last century around.

Yes and once the fuel is burnt how much does it weigh?
