Russian invasion of Ukraine

[SPIDERBOY]

Been watching the vids on telegram today of them being demined, fuckers are everywhere. So many people are going to be maimed over the coming years.

Ive seen Ukrainian civilians belting them with long pieces of wood or rolling old car tyres over them.

Slava Ukraini.

Get ready for some more Russian memorabilia.
They have pulled around 1500 tanks from storage in Siberia......as rusty as you like.....it's still going to plan though.

Slava Ukraini.

I bet they've had zero maintenance all the time they've been in storage, and probably stored in cold damp conditions.

They are fearless,but also mental.
My cousin sent a video,was of a load of Russian Grad rockets hitting buildings etc.
As soon as it stops,a little old granny(babushka) comes outside with a helmet and a BP vest on,and starts sweeping up.

Was looking on google earth earlier at the "storage" facility, it's a very large yard full of rusty tanks, many without turrets, the co-ordinates were on twitter earlier. I'd be surprised if any of them work to be honest, and I've no idea how old some of them were, certainly not "modern".

But they aren't destroyed. 9 of those "destroyed" will be rebuilt at facilities to be provided in Poland and/or Germany. There was an article on it somewhere on how modern NATO/western vehicles are moduler and can be rebuilt even from serious damage - often with parts salvaged from one vehicle being able to repair another.
Edit: This is an article on the subject - not the one I read, but it shows the point I am making:

US provided 190 Bradleys to Ukraine, a dozen are completely destroyed – WP

The USA had provided Ukraine with 190 Bradley vehicles, about a dozen of which have been fully destroyed; the Ukrainian military lacks spare parts for their repair. Source: The Washington Post citing sources Quote from WP: "'The United States has committed 190 Bradleys overall, with more than...

Bottom line is: if there is no huge fire damage, the vehicle can be repaired.
