Russian invasion of Ukraine

I'd seen things like this before.

ATACMS Obliterates Russian Air Defense System As It Desperately Tries To Defend Itself

The video shows the vain efforts of the Russian S300/S400 to engage incoming ATACMS missiles, before being spectacularly knocked out.

Yeah I think ( no pun intended ) its hit and miss. they can be intercepted but no idea on how often in the real world they manage it.

 

[SPIDERBOY]

That can’t be right because a Kremlin spokesperson said the other day that they would be shooting all these missiles down anyway…

Don't forget....the Russians were destroying HIMARS Systems,before they were even delivered.
And at one point....a lot more than WAS delivered.
Their Defence Systems are incredible.
The laughable cunts!

Slava Ukraini.

Russia said it has shot down 4 of the 5 fired Atacms missiles.

Five missiles were shot down and one damaged, with its fragments causing a fire at a military facility in the region, it said.

Ukraine fires US-supplied longer-range missiles into Russia, Moscow says

Missiles targeted an ammunitions depot in Bryansk region, Moscow says, with Foreign Minister Lavrov saying the US wanted to escalate the conflict.

No worries on the nuclear threat then if the ruSSian's are just nonchalantly shooting them down

"Imposing neutrality on Ukraine will not bring about a durable peace in Europe. On the contrary, it would leave Ukraine at Putin’s mercy and set the stage for a new Russian invasion."

Imposing neutrality on Ukraine will not stop Putin or bring peace to Europe

Imposing neutrality on Ukraine will not bring about a durable peace in Europe. On the contrary, it would leave Ukraine at Putin’s mercy and set the stage for a new Russian invasion, writes Mykola Bielieskov.

[BlueAnorak]

No I think I'd say that was you.

 

[BlueAnorak]

Why is Putins threats this time any more serious than the last 15/20 times he’s threatened nukes?

Psst - because Russian social media bots have told them so.

Yep the fragments rained down on the ammo and arms logistic centre and blew it to bits.

Stuff 19/11:

Russian stuff blowing up: Ukraine unleashes ATACMS on Russian ammo site

It didn’t take long for Ukraine to start firing up the ATACMS and sending them deep into Russia to strike an ammunition depot. It is not known if Ammo Dump Jesus appeared over the site. The Russians claim they shot down the ATACMS and any damage was...

The Russians,as we all know,will fire a few missiles into Russian apartment blocks,and report it as a strike by NATO with long range ATACMS.

Those worrying about nukes and WW3.
Putin's threats are empty. The reason for this is because Russia isn't under any threat.
He can at any point just withdraw his troops. The war will end. Nobody is coming for Russia. Nukes are a last resort.

If he was mad enough to use just one small tactical nuke (for a show of force/bravado), everything changes. He knows this. He also knows there will be no place on earth for him to hide. So unless he wants his final days to be in a bunker (sound familiar?), it just isn't going to happen.

Pretty sure President Xi would not back him if he did so either. It's clearly in no one's interests and certainly not Putins.

Do you think if Hitler had nukes he wouldn't have given orders to use them as part of his scorched earth policy?

Whilst I agree with you, the danger is that we underestimate how mad the mad dwarf is. If he believes he's close to the end of his life he might bring hell to the earth instead.

They don't do that.

Just throw individuals out of 3rd floor windows who post on social media they suspect Putin might be a bit of a ****.
