Russians are employing this dastardly new technology called “mines” which no army on earth has encountered before, least of all those of the NATO members like France, Germany and the UK.
Curious. They claim NATO exists as self defense against a peer enemy, yet their strategies only work against small, relatively defenseless countries!
that’s honestly a great point i hadn’t thought about that
NATO is forcing completely absurd tactics and strategies on the Ukrainians that has cost tens of thousands of lives, and this is why we need to support Ukraine even more with more NATO training and wonderweapons!The Ukrainians are much better trained than the Russians! It’s just the fact that the Russians are cheating by having a MIC of their own
Don’t forget, they’re also saying that Russia is using human wave attacks which also isn’t fair.
Just crawl on your belly over the mines and they’ll be added to your inventory
NATO tactics assume air superiority.
I keep harping on this point again and again because I really cannot get across how fucking stupid it is: YOU DO NOT ASSUME AIR SUPREMACY OVER ANOTHER NATION’S AIRSPACE, YOU FUCKING INCOMPETENT IDIOTS. YOU CANNOT PROJECT AIR POWER 500 MILES DEEP INTO A NATION WITH A COMPREHENSIVE AIR DEFENSE NETWORK, RADARS, AND SAM SITES. YOUR STEALTH TECHNOLOGY IS NOT INVINCIBLE, AND YOUR SHITTY OVERPRICED BULLSHIT F-35 WILL GET SHOT DOWN AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND THIS IS WHY YOU REFUSE TO DEPLOY THEM ON ACTUAL FRONTLINES.
Then again, since NATO keeps doubling-down on this idea it just means they’re more likely to get fucking annihilated anytime they fight a near-peer in conventional warfare, so critical support to the failson Wunderwaffen generals I guess?
I think it says a lot about the countries NATO has been fighting that something like “assume air superiority” isn’t laughed out of the room. It’s because they are mostly in the business of destroying third world nations and haven’t fought wars nearly so much as campaigns to exterminate resistance.

There are no mines, it’s all just shovels. The Ukrainian forces step on the shovels and get hit in the face. Russian shovel technology is too advanced for NATOists to overcome.
NATO tactics assume air superiority
Ah good thing no enemies of NATO know this and have invested a ton of resources into SAM technology!
No, no, no. Air superiority is when your planes are more expensive. You see, the more pricey the plane the more superior the air. Missiles are cheap, and thus can’t contribute to air superiority.
Where’s the evidence that the Ukrainian soldiers have better training? Blind assumption that Western training is inherently superior?
It’s because their training is higher quality, more extensive and better. It’s just doing worse because they don’t know how to fight the Russians, which they are trained better than they’re just doing worse because the Russians are fighting in a way they’re not trained to fight, they’re trained to fight in a better way which is doing worse against the Russians because they’re fighting differently which is worse than the way the Ukrainians are fighting which are doing worse because they’re having issues with…
They say Russian POWs are complaining about lack of training, though they of course provide no source for this except for a general handwave of “plenty of interviewed.” Others have posted a lot of different sources (with references!) which claim the Ukrainians are generally ill-equipped and barely-trained.
Their response? Ridiculous, the Russians can’t be better trained than the Ukrainians because thebUkrainians are trained better than the Russians.
I love soviet tactics, its literally finding out countering western overcomplicated and extremely expensive wunderwaffen with the cheapest shit
super advanced jets? outfly these 9 missiles that we can replace instantly
Long distance stealth bombers? Attach rocket boosters to a plane that scares the US for decades
Its hilarious
“While you studied western tactics and equipment, I studied the mine.”
French aristocrat knights, c. 14th century: “how dare these English peasants shoot me with longbows!!! Where’s their chivalry!!!”
(Actual military history may vary)
“To teach them a lesson I will ride towards them, down this muddy hill while wearing sommuch armour I cannot stand up on my own. What could possibly go wrong?”
i know you’re doing a bit, but only jousting armour was too heavy to stand in. would be hella shitty to be in full plate if you couldnt move
One night I went down the youtube rabbit hole of dudes in full plate showing off their mobility. One dude even swam for a short time doing a sorta breast stroke thing.
That last one sounds actually insane. Like you’re just asking to drown
Funny you should mention that. They chose still water, had a guide line, and backup. However! Crypto fash dipshit Varg Vikarness tried the same stunt with chain mail. In a river. Nearly drowned his dumbass.
Varg “I killed a gay man and I don’t regret it” Vikarness? Varg “Burn Down a Church, Kill A Firefighter” Vikarness? Varg “Make A Really Shitty And Tedious TTRPG” Vikarness? You’re telling me Varg Vikarness did something fucking stupid? I am hearing this now for the first time.
The last of the three is the least of his many shitty things But this review of it is pretty goodI think Varg just killed his band mate. The gay guy was killed by a different guy in the same scene.
But yep, that asshole.
