Im not sure what the military term is for when even your armor is forced underground. But I know the literary term is “foreshadowing”

There should be some late 1970s porn waka-waka guitar music in the background while they look at the tank, because that’s usually a sign someone’s about to get fucked.

So... the numbers of Russian casualties in these reports is 2x-3x each day from what is was a few weeks ago.

Yeah, there's been an uptick in dead Russian videos - the OSINT folks are geolocating everything, and I don't remember exactly where, but in a few areas they tried to ramp things up.  The Russians tried to launch a....counter-counter-offensive? in a few areas and got chewed the fuck up, and the Ukrainians hit some units on the ground, and Ukrainian aircraft (both fixed-wing and rotary) seem to be more active.

Also seems like the Ukrainians hit some speciality equipment - not just the run-of-the-mill tanks or APCs, but some C&C stuff, MLRS, radar, etc.

It almost feels like the Ukrainians have some new drone hardware in the mix as well, seems like they are able to kill more Russians/hit more hardware.

And everyone's focused in Israel/Hamas right now so it's all flying under the radar.

Some shit is going down.

We get a meal at work from culinary. Unfortunately, the current chef tends to lean into "healthy" meals like turkey meatloaf, Kale and eggplant. On the occasions we get something decent like prime rib they fuck it up with their version of cheesy grits which do not reheat in a microwave worth a fuck and quinoa. WTF is quinoa? The oriental meals are pretty decent and consistent quality. I miss the old days back when I started there. We got to order off a menu and one option was 2 bacon wrapped filet mignon with baked potato. Guess what I ordered 5 days a week.

Dude Asian (american)please.

If someone calls me occidental one more time...

Is this a bit?

Surely this is a bit.

Military hardware fails more often than people think, it's just that it's not caught on video - YouTube has plenty of mortar/RPG fails.

I've seen a mortar round fail, similar to the video below, and it's a pants-shitting moment, even though in theory they've got safeties that prevent detonation in case of an accident like that (ask @Scheiss Meister if it ever happened to him).

Rockets...I only ever shot AT4s, and only a couple, but I was told the minimum arming range was I think 10 or 15 meters, so if that RPG-7 has a similar minimum arming range, those guys are safe, but still shitting their pants.  These weapons have pretty simple but cool mechanisms to prevent them from arming/detonating if they drop out of the launcher/mortar in a misfire.

What I would find funny, is if we find out that Kim sent them back crap the Russians had sold them over the years they knew didn't work.  It wouldn't shock me in the slightest if over the years, Russia knowingly sold the North Korean's busted shit, and now Kim is returning the favor.

Per the Kyiv Post, Russia has lost 102 tanks, 183 armored vehicles, and 2840 troops since Tuesday trying to encircle Avdiivka. Since Tuesday...

But other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln?

 

I do wonder if the Russian thinking was that with everything going on in Gaza and what not, if they thought US surveillance efforts would have been refocused elsewhere.  Considering they would have had to mass this kind of force prior to the actual action, if that is the case it would indicate they had fore-knowledge of the Hamas attack.  In any event, whatever they may have been thinking, it's not going well.  

I've also read unsubstantiated stuff that indicated the Ukrainians knew they were going to do this and set a massive ambush for them.  Considering the losses, that part seems plausible.

This guy right here is fucking hilarious.  Mobilize between 2 and 4 million more to conduct any sort of offensive action?  What are you going to have them do, stand in a field with their dicks in the hands?  I hope Putin listens.

It's worse than you thought - Putin actually wrote that shit.
