ramble81 , in Russian ammo cache is destroyed by FPV drones.

Piloting that redeemer like a pro. All those years of Unreal Tournament pays off

FaceDeer , in Russian ammo cache is destroyed by FPV drones.

Oh, neat. The first one blew up the door, and then the second one literally flew inside and went down the hallway to reach the cache.

Forester , in Covert Cabal: ~1,000 T-80BVs Tanks Disappear From Russian Storage Bases

This and also that old Russian adage about tanks.

You take our track. We become a howitzer comrade.

You take our cannon. We become a pillbox comrade.

You take our MG. We become a bunker comrade.

You take our armor. We become a statistical sacrifice for an imperialistic fascistic dictatorship.

MrHindsight , in Russia hits nine-story residential building in downtown Dnipro, killing at least 1, injuring 12

Ruzzia is a terrorist state!

NotMyOldRedditName , in ever seen how long an artillery shell spends in the air?

Any estimates on the distance it traveled there? It looks so slow but I know it's not.

so I took the muzzle velocity and the time, and asked chat GPT to adjust for wind resistance and it says this was probably about a 25 km shot. a 155 artillery piece can have a range of 40km with non-rocket assisted extended range ammo

NotMyOldRedditName ,

So, I opened this message and my eyes first saw wind resistance and I thought I was about to get some measurements about an unladen swallow.

Soon enough I think you'll just he able to give the video to chat gpt and tell it what kind of artillery it is and it'd work that out as well.

Thanks!

that was the issue, I don't know exactly what 155mm was being fired, there's all kinds

BombOmOm , in Destruction of a Russian BM-21 Grad MLRS and an FPV strike on a locomotive hauling tank cars, likely carrying fuel.

That grad hit was particularly spicy.

And always nice to see a train hit. See those less often, but they are Russia's logistics backbone and are some of the most important targets.

mp3 , in Russian Lancet attack UAV is hit by a remotely detonated FPV drone.

It's crazy how much drones tipped the balance of power.

BombOmOm ,

Yeah, if this is scalable it could prove very effective. Lancets have been doing quite a bit of damage due to their longer range. If Ukraine can shoot these down reliably with such cheap munitions, it will greatly diminish Russia's ability to hit targets behind the front.

Lorindol , in AFU destroyed new Russian S-500 air defence system

According to Wikipedia, one S-500 system has a ~ $2.5 billion price tag and it still is unable to protect itself ;)

Destroying one with nearly any ordnance available will give you the best bang for a buck one can possibly get. The murderous thieves may find it very hard to replace these with the sanctions up, which is nice.

recklessengagement , in Unknown Ukrainian jet-propelled attack UAV found in Russia.

Jet powering a drone that small is a bold move but with a talented pilot would be very impressive

JohnDClay , in Unknown Ukrainian jet-propelled attack UAV found in Russia.

That's some nice shaping on the panels! Is it carbon fiber?

gravitas_deficiency ,

Looks like it!

sxan , in Unknown Ukrainian jet-propelled attack UAV found in Russia.

Shit. That's next level. I mean, if it works; it should at least have had a self-destruct to prevent capture and analysis.

anachronist , in Spotify removes music by pro-war Russian singers

Anyone have the experience of starting listening to folk music on spotify and suddenly you realize the algo walked you over to Rhodesian songs?

zabadoh , in The Russians May Have Lost An Entire Airborne Brigade In Vovchansk

For those interested, before the Very Special Military Operation, the 83rd Airborne Brigade had about 40,000 men.

Good thing I almost exclusively listen to artists who got into trouble with the authorities for their music.
