Russian invasion of Ukraine | Fewer tweets, more discussion
- Thread starter Wednesday at Stoke
- Start date
Apparently there are two fecking people driving that midget of a tank.
According to this guy, the fly-past in Russia's May 9th Victory Parade was not cancelled because of bad weather (the official explanation), but cancelled instead because of sabotage: a 2nd fire at the Perm aviation facility - the staging area for Mig-31s and Mig-25 PUs. The MIg-31s were supposed to accompany the "Doomsday Plane" in the fly-past:
Yeah, that one left a mark
All cow.
Russian tactics: "maybe we should try unprotected sprawling columns in wide open flat land for the 57th time General"
Ukrainians probably are already thinking how are they ever going to remove that scrap from their roads. .
Another good Twitter account for following the war…

Russians will have nightmares over the Bayraktar.
The BBC reports:
"UK would assist 'with whatever Sweden requested' - Johnson
Asked what happens if Sweden needs help in the "grey zone" after it applies to join Nato but before it is accepted, Johnson says there's a "separate conversation going on" and "it's a matter for Sweden".
But "in the event of a disaster or an attack upon Sweden, the UK would come to the assistance of Sweden with whatever Sweden requested," he also said.
The Swedish PM Andersson says the pact could include military support in times of crisis.
Johnson, meanwhile, also says it's important Sweden is giving the same support to the UK - describing the pact as an important "paving stone for developing relations in the future".

Sweden would absolutely shit on the Russian military if it got invaded. Especially now.
theyve certainly lost any fear factor they might have had.
The UK has the ultimate weapon.
” If Sweden get attacked, the UK will send English food to the Russian soldiers.”
To be fair, between his generals dying all over, getting their asses kicked in Ukraine, and other officers shooting their own soldiers, Putin is having great success at recreating the Soviet military of the 1935-1942 era.
Looks like something off the Death StarThose guys obviously didn't watch A Bridge Too Far, namely what happened at the beginning of the ground advance.
I've just read it fires 2rpm
That thing's accuracy must be insane
