The Russian Invasion of Ukraine Part 4

[Hercules Rockefeller]

I wonder why?

Is potato.

 

[theprestige]

How does that help a sub track a moving target ashore?

GPS is a hoax. For decades, western militaries have been quietly registering their movements with the only working system, GLONASS. Yes, this has obvious implications for operational security, but western commanders are too stupid to notice the obvious. As soon as the aryans can figure out how to steal it from the slavs, deutschland will once again rule uber alles in die welt.

I suppose, according to Opposite Day rules, we should expect that NATO* has a cruise missile-equipped sub in the Black Sea, ready to rain down on Russian artillery, as soon as they get the word.

Ahh, the nuclear schlong again. Now as a response to the HIMARS deployment.

Curious thing is this (found by quick and dirty search):

Either the Russian Military (or what you may call it) are prescient. Or somebody is an idiot.

*scratches head*

I thought the Russians saw the Ukrainians as beloved blood brothers, and would never dream of resorting to mass destruction like the perfidious westerners.

They do! But what else should they do when 500 Ukrainian Nazi-Generals meet up with 500 representatives of Vogon constructor fleet manufacturers, huh?

Deploy their reserve of Daleks? I know I would!

Losing the war isn't enough for Russians. Apparently they must also lose their minds.

Russia Says It’s Losing Because Ukraine Has Experimental Mutant Troops Created in Secret Biolabs (thedailybeast.com)

Nearly five months into its senseless war against Ukraine, Russia has concocted a wild new explanation for why the Kremlin’s plans for a quick takeover fell apart so spectacularly—because Ukrainian troops were turned into superhuman killing machines during “secret experiments” in American-run biolabs, of course.

You can't make this stuff up. Oh wait, in Russia they can make anything up.

"The Daily Beast" can literally make anything up.

So now the Putin Propaganda machine has got to swipe from the the Star Wars Prequel trilogy?

It appears that anything is allowed in official Russian media except reality.

No war crimes here.

And why was a civilian child held as a hostage for so long?

Remember when Russian media tried to pass off scenes from the movie Titanic as Russian exploration of the North Pole.

GLONASS. Haha.

Technical incompetency is a funny thing to watch when it is coupled with deliberate dishonesty.

GLONASS and all the other GPS systems broadcast a signal. Receivers tell you where the receiver is located. But you have to get a signal form the receiver. The satellites in orbit only know where they are and the approximate position of the other satellites. They have no idea where anything on the ground is. They just broadcast their ID, location, and the exact time.

Therefor, the idea that GLONASS knows where anything is on the ground, Russian or Ukrainian, is just plain stupid.

Perhaps but they are nothing compared to Vlady Manboobs Putin and his squad of pro-genocide fiction writers.

That - and GLONASS doesn't work well at all. There are multiple images of Russian fighter jets with Garmin or Magellan brand GPS units grafted onto the cockpit. And those are pretty good GPS units for what they are - but they're not high end. They could at least fork out the dough for a Trimble or a Thales (but they don't).

I thought of a Captain America type of thing first, myself. There's apparently just too many Ukrainian super soldiers to call just one of them Captain Ukraine, though. Any suggestions for what to call those enhanced super soldiers?

These people have issues as you told us. You are smarter then them, which is (aside from being a good person) why you help them, but I am smarter than you. As everybody here knows I am the smartest person you will ever meet.

Modest much ?

I repeat my question. Are the people in my house (and the hundreds of people in houses around here) lying when they talk about their experiences of the war in Ukraine ?

I realise that an argument from incredulity is a logical fallacy but the idea that Ukraine's response to being invaded by Russia was to train and release literally millions of "crisis actors" into the EU and UK does seem somewhat far-fetched.

These people are almost certainly not CIA plants, but the SBU, of which the head just has been fired by z, is totally controlled by the CIA and a really evil organization.

And your point is ?

Any actual evidence to support your claims or is it the usual Russian Propaganda ?

Competent?

 

[Klimax]

Taking out high value targets a long way away - so far only 4 HIMARS vehicles have been provided.

Forgot to address this. You are way behind. There are at least 12 HIMARS/M270 now. Would it kill you to actually pay attention if you are going to comment on it?
