Then, I hope for the best. I will have a little holidays in these days, and I hope to read more about these kind of strikes when I'm back

Wouldn't these drones like the Foxbat and the E-300 be too big and slow not to be seen well before hitting a target? I mean, days ago, one of them exploded in Russia, but would they be really good to use frequently?

I was wondering one thing. Even if magically, all western companies start to send all materias to Russia, how can Russia use these tecnologies at best, considering they sent almost all skilled men to the front? Also assembly all tanks, apcs, ecc, how can they manned them, if they are short of (good) soldiers? I don't think giving a t-90m to 3 soldiers that barely knows how to start it, can make huge difference. I'm just curios, I'm not an expert

I was wondering one thing: Everywhere they talk about how many artillery shells Russia can produce or already have, but I wonder if they can also buy/obtain/build enough artillery systems to fire all these shells. I'm not an expert about military stuff, but I think artillery tubes can deteriorate quite quickly if used a lot. Has anyone any idea of how many of these new hardwares can Russia field each month?

Ukraine is using a lot of choppers? Where re the russian aviation and the "formidable" russian Air defences?

Glad to see some italian equipment at use :)

I cannot be a racist with southern countries, because I live in one of them I'm a middle class, but I was lucky that with my job, I travelled a bit. Wherever I went, people were simply working more and talking less about these privileges. Probably we simply (and luckily) have our bellies full and now because we can't eat the dessert, we think that now we are poor like 3rd world countries. There are many problems for sure, but I cannot see the true privileges thrown away. Anyway, let's stop speaking about this, it's quite ot

I would like to know which post war "privileges" we have been deprived of. Nothing changed in Italy even with Meloni (where everyone inside and outside Italy was saying she would have been Mussolini 2.0). What I'm seeing here in Italy and I think in all latin/mediterranean countries, is the lack of will to work. The post WWII privileges were the money given to Europe by USA and the will to work and build everything again for the best. So a part from the lost privilege of getting money from the USA (or big country), now I see no privileges lost.

Well, Russia started the war, not the USA, plus it was in international waters...

Yes, I didn't think of the old t-72. I'm used to see smoke launchers everywhere nowadays. I agree with you But the most important thing is that the russian tank is dead, no matter the type

In my humble opinion, it's a t-62. I see no smoke launcher on the turret. They should be located at the front of it

Interesting part (for me) starts at 18:00

Honestly, were there really people thinking that Meloni would have "betrayed" the west/Nato? Just before/after (I can't remember) the italian vote, I wrote that Meloni and her party are everything but Putin's friends. Those were Berlusconi and Salvini (who took a lot of money from Vlad). Meloni didn't have anything to do with Russia, and as I wrote, she and her party still fight the communism, and in the italian population point of view, Russia is still a communist state (like if the URSS never disappeared at all). Whaterver foreign politician/journalists will say, with Meloni, Italy will never "betray" Nato or any sort of military intervention

About Italy, you don't have to worry about right wing party. All the polls indicate that Fratelli d'Italia (far right) will get most of the votes. I would add "luckily" because the head of the party (Meloni) believes in Nato and wants to continue to support Ukraine. The 2 problems were Berlusconi and Salvini, since the first was a dear friend of Putin and the latter was financed by Russia, but they will be already happy if they will get a 20% together, which means they will decide nothing You can also view the "far right party" as an enemy of communism, which in many minds, is still represended by Russia. You can fight communism by sending aid to Ukraine

Sorry for the little off-topic I was only wondering why in all video where RU tanks are destroyed, those tanks are (most of the time) alone, sitting there with zero crew members around or infantry. Does anyone knows why? I mean, I'm not an amateur, but not an expert at all in "war videogames", but I find these situations of lone tanks really dumb. Is there any chance that those thanks are abandoned? I mean, I know that RU army is really really dumb, but I find amazing if they are really SO doumb

https://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2022/07/05/leuropa-ha-finito-le-armi-per-sostenere-kiev-la-russia-ha-ancora-riserve-da-vendere-nato-allargata-si-da-un-pretesto-a-mosca-lanalisi/6649637/ Maybe a little "off topic", but as you can read in this italian article, many "italian experts" still believe that Russian has tons and tons of weapons to use, while whole Europe soon will have no more weapons to send. The title literally says "Europe has run out of weapons to support Kiev. Russia still has reserves to sell. Enlarged NATO? A pretext is given to Moscow" A part from this "expert", the fact that this newspaper is anti-american and anti-nato can be a problem, since this newspaper is financed by a party that is in the italian parliament and has some ministers of the current government.

Yes, the "sad" part is that the "boss" was Austria. Hungary didn't have the right to have an army, so all soldiers had to fight for Austria. The Habsburgs declared war, they lost the war and the only country who was torn apart was Hungary. Anyway, let's go back to speak about war

https://www.fuen.org/en/article/What-is-the-current-situation-of-the-Hungarian-minority-in-Ukraine Well, it's not that minority in general are 100% though. Anyway, I'm just an italian guy, so I cannot judge from here. No nation/party/side is always 100% right. Probably some things are true, some are not. I just report what she told me and what she showed me on youtube I donated money to the ukrainian red cross and also bought some bundles or games on Steam to help Ukraine. I just want this war to end and that all these tensions in Europe will end

My gf in hungarian. I had time to speak with her about this whole situation in Hungary. Basically, what people fails to understand (me included before talking about it) is that Hungary and Ukraine had alwasy had tensions about ther territories. She showed me video on youtube where hungarian minorities in Ukraine were treated mostly like jews were treated by germans during WWII. The minorities are forbidden to speak hungarian in Ukraine, and there are many cases of rapes and general discrimination. Some years ago also Ukraine threated Hungarian to start a war to regain some hungarian territory that Ukrain thought it was theirs. Also Orban as she told me, was the least harmful leader (or party) than the others. He is a ****, but less than the others. What I don't understand is why Orban didn't speak publicy about these issues with Ukraine, instead he only went against EU only talking about gas and oil that are needed for Hungary And hungarians people are helping ukrainians as much as they can, so I hope after this war, both sides will be able to become more friendly and "european"

Italian prime minister Draghi is 100% supporting Ukraine, the "problem" is half of the goverment. Half of it is composed by right wing people that did many things with Putin (Salvini and Berlusconi) and by true "communist" who still think that communism exists and Russia is right to kill those Nazi ukrainians. Plus above this, everyone is against Nato and even most against USA, since it's the most evil country in the world. I keep hearing that it was only Russia that beated Hitler and Germany in WWII, that explains a lot about italian mentality...

oh, no one here spoke about that bridge I told you that Italian news are bad. Now you understand why Thanks to you Haiduk and to all the members of this forum. You are all amazing in providing true analysis and informations about this war

Ciao / Hello Does anybody have news about the 12km long convoy that left Transnistria some days ago?. Here in Italy all news spoke about it like if it was a game-changer for the war (Italian news and "military experts" like to insist that Russia in a super power able to defeat Ukraine...). So, does anyone know something? Forza Ucraina Grazie :)

Hi all I've been following this awesome thread since the beginning. Thanks to you I was able to "reassure" my family/friends that this war will not last long and Russia will lose. It was hard to convince all of them, because here in Italy, there is the "might" of Russian army and all news speak in favour of Russia anyway. I was wondering one thing however, does anyone knows what happened to the russian army in Transnistria? Today I read (on italian news paper) that a 12km long convoy was leaving that region, to "strike" Ukraine. Is there any good info about it? Grazie

This is what I meant. I was interested in knowing if both internal and external damages are so detailed (or even better), I don't mind if they are graphically shown or not (though it would be cool). Sorry, but I couldn't not explain myself well, my english is not so good ^^' To reply to Chuckdyke, I was meaning the crews try to fix the tracks of the tank. It's funny to see them using big hammers to repair the tracks. Of course I don't know if it's totally realistic, but it's funny nonetheless

Hi all I recently started to play "Tank warfare tunisia 1943" and I've found it really interesting from the point of view of tank damages. My simple question is if any CM game feature such detailed tank damage? In tank warfare, you can inspect the tanks after the battle is over, and you can see which ammo hitted the tank, which penetrated and what damage it caused. I post a picture to show you what I mean: Is CM also so realistic? Does CM takes count of all these different parameters/damages for tanks?(I don't mind to see the graphical representation or not) It's also cool to see crews trying to fix tanks if they are not under fire. I'm just curious, I own many CM titles, and I like them all, but this game seems really cool about tanks Sorry for my english ^^'
