  1. I think one of these generals is no longer among the living but it's still funny...
  2. I don't know if this has been posted yet but I haven't seen it before:
  3. #Russian Navy deploys unique 110-year-old ship to investigate Moskva wreck. Likely carrying a DSRV minisub.
  4. Ukrainian Forces Shoot Down $15 Million Russian Chopper With The Help Of A Missile System Worth Only '$100' Ukrainian troops downed a $15 million Russian Ka-52 helicopter by using an air defence missile system worth a fraction of the cost. According to reports, the Ukrainian military unit Operational Command 'East' took to its Facebook page to share the news about the helicopter crash that took place in the Kharkiv region. As per the post, the unit used an 'Igla' - a portable surface-to-air missing (SAM) system that was developed by the Soviet Union, and only costs $100. The post also mocked that using a 'Stinger', which is worth approximately $120,000, would have been a waste. https://www.indiatimes.com/trending/social-relevance/ukrainian-troops-destroy-15-million-dollar-russian-helicopter-with-100-dollar-missile-567331.html
  5. The article states that "employees are given a choice: to go on unpaid leave or sign a contract with the armed forces to participate in the war in Ukraine. The recommended position is an 'operator-gunner' of a Buk missile system. The proposed salary is 50,000 roubles a month," the statement said." 50,000 rubles is $603.50 in USD at the moment.
  6. Captain 1st rank (Russian: Капитан 1-го ранга, romanized: Kapitan 1-go ranga, lit. 'Captain of the 1st rank') is a rank used by the Russian Navy and a number of former communist states. The rank is the most senior rank in the staff officers' career group. The rank is equivalent to colonel in armies and air forces. Within NATO forces, the rank is rated as OF-5 and is equivalent to captain in English-speaking navie
  7. I think you can add this guy to your list of KIA officers. Putin news: Anton Kuprin is said to have died after the Moskva was fatally hit (Image: EAST2WEST) https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1596636/putin-news-russia-anton-kuprin-killed-moskva-warship-sunk-ukraine-missile-attack
  8. Once the Moskva got hit all the other ships move out another 20km to get out of range.
  9. “Azov”: The Russians dropped an unknown poison on Mariupol https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2022/04/11/7338922/
  10. Russian servicemen, who have seen the military might of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, are making “last will” calls to their families. "the Russian soldier tells his wife there are 10 men left from his unit, but the command doesn’t want to pull them out of Ukraine. He understands they will be simply "wiped out" and says: "We have two options: to return home either as KIAs or WIAs. That's it..."" https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-ato/3452090-russian-soldiers-convey-their-last-wills-to-families-intercepts.html
  11. It's about time the UN did something: The United Nations General Assembly voted Thursday to suspend Russia from the Human Rights Council. A total of 93 members of the assembly voted in favor of the measure, while 24 were against and 58 abstained. Those who voted against the resolution included Russia's regional ally Belarus, China, North Korea, Iran and Syria.
  12. I don't know how fast those vehicles can go but after the first shell hit I'd have the peddle to the metal heading back to Russia.
  13. Most of us run out of likes early in the day. We need more likes...
  14. There is an article by a US Navy Seal that talks about the same thing. Too many inconsistencies in that video. https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1591385/Ukraine-latest-mariupol-surrender-video-russia-propaganda
  15. I still don't think I'd be just sliding them around with my feet.
