    Or get guarantees rather than assurances. Like NATO partners have. It's not 100%, but what is, in the world of international relations? Given the efforts expended for a nation that has "assurances", I'm more encouraged now to believe that Western powers actually consider "guarantees" to be as binding as they're meant to be. It's probably necessary for the maintenance of the structures that have improved material well-being across the world since WW2.

    We can see the explosion happened at the span of one of bridge segment - there are scorch Marks and blown out railings on the inner pane of Road bridge around that place. Explosive downward force snapped the bridge pane at the span, and that resulted in snapping the span on two adjanced support (the bridge seems to be a series of continuous beams - probably four spans each). The fallen span in the back (the one further away) was probably pulled from support longitudally by the span that fell under the explosion. The same applies to the span on the other end of continuous beam (next to exploded one). 
    As for slipping to the side - when the pane broke in the exploded span and next span was pulled from the suport, it broke and bent upwards on the support between those two fallen spans, no longer lying on two bearings. I thing it does not need big additional side force to slip to the side. The both fallen spans probably touch the bottom of the sea and the upward part on top of the support started to fall to the side but got hanged on outside bearing.

    That road is probably pretty floppy when you're driving it with the kind of energy a point explosion of a truck bomb (or bigass missile, for Steve) would put in. It's going to both ripple longitudinally and have twisting modes.  It could walk/bounce itself off to the side a little and then tumble to get the amount of offset that's there.  It also looks like the longitudinal beams sit on small pier blocks on top of the big piers, so it would be tipping off those to one side and could have had enough momentum to tumble as much as it did.

    Hi
    I've found an interesting movie about syria tank modifications. Posted it in Syrians thread but it seems no one there is interested. Maybe it wasn't the best place for it.
     
    Probably out of scope of CMSF2 but still interesting to see. Such vehicles could be useful in red on red scenarios.
