International Russia/Ukraine Megathread V10

[Ruthless Ryan]

just being objective and not deluded by an absurd ideology..

theres no way a rational individual with a functioning brain would think these women would stand a chance if they were to face wagner in a battle of trenches or close range urban combat.

Let's be honest you thought Bakhmut would have fell a long time ago did you not? Wagner's gains have slowed because they are running low on the human wave's they have been using. Wagner isn't some special force, they are just more brutal and dont care about the lives of their troops as they have been sending in meat walls one after the other. However they dont have an endless manpower supply or ammo and that's why things have come to a stalemate for the most part.

How do you think Lyudmila Pavlichenko would have done against a bunch of drunken wagner criminals?

‘Stop Masturbating and Go to the Front’ – Russian Mercenary Group Wagner Launches Porn Site Recruitment Drive

The mercenary group’s chief Yevgeny Prigozhin said the idea was ‘excellent’ but Porn Hub is already reported to have taken down the highly controversial ads.

Russian mercenary group Wagner has launched a short-lived recruitment drive on PornHub, urging men to “stop masturbating and go to the front.”

The ads, reported on multiple Russian Telegram channels, have already been taken down by the porn site.

The video ad proclaimed: "We are the f*cking greatest private military company in the world, stop masturbating and go to the front!"

Wagner Chief Yevgeny Prigozhin – who recently said he wanted to “reboot” his mercenary force “into an army with an ideology” – appears to be a huge fan of the novel recruitment technique, saying in a video: “Putting Wagner PMC ads on porn sites is an excellent idea for our marketers. I fully agree with them.

“Who could disagree with the text of this ad?"

PWC Wagner has been focused on capturing Bakhmut, and Prigozhin has staked his reputation on the capture of the city by his group. However, the Wagner PMC suffered huge losses near Bakhmut and failed to capture the city.

On March 15, the U.S. Institute for the Study of War reported that the Russian offensive slowed down.

"Russian offensive actions have decreased significantly over the last week and noted that daily Russian ground attacks have decreased from 90 to 100 attacks per day to 20 to 29 per day," the report said.

At the same time, British intelligence believes that Prigozhin has lost access to recruitment in Russian prisons due to ongoing disputes with the Russian Ministry of Defense.

Prigozhin himself claims that a private military company has stopped the recruitment of prisoners in Russian colonies for the war in Ukraine.

lol no thanks. i can't beat my dick off like it owes me money if i get turned into ukranian fertilizer. and quite frankly i'd rather beat my dick off to a screen full of naked women rather than a field full of dead russian corpses.

He keeps saying it will fall any day now so that if/when it does he can be like "see? I said next week!" Been doing it for months.

Well that all depends on how pointy her elbows are

This is incredibly pathetic....UK a naval powering basically having a fraction of its size.

To be fair most nations in this day and age have bigger problems and putting your budget towards your own people instead of worrying about Russia was easy to do....who would have thought Russia would turn us back into WW2 shit?. Thats why I think It's actually better Russia collapses and can get fixed like Japan and Germany after WW2 , other wise things will just simmer until the next war.

Yep. and it looks like it might not even happen. If it did Putin would have a parade and tell the people about the heroic victory he had achieved.

Sadly they does have damn a lot of ammunition, always had been supplied really generously.
All this crying about lack of ammo is for mainstream mass media customers and papa Putin & his mates...
As excuse....

Wagner had lost in Ukraine a lot of real A level pros... I don't mean here even about B or C level pros or D level lads....
E level are these....mhmm....prisoners.

Wagner now most likely does have some 400-500 A level pros in Ukraine and approx 400 in africa....
B level pro isn't trash, it is really usable fighter, something like someone 22-36 y.o and with military service incl pro under belt...

Such fighters number too isn't high.
There a lot of IQ is needed, it isn't just to use weapons.

Wagner lacks good quality " meat " while doesn't looks that they have problems to hire D level lads...
With prisoners: prisoners does know about mobile crematoriums.

Btw relatively large % of prisoners most likely agreed cos wanted to get out of prison and vuala, even weapons and ammunition will be issued.

All these security measures to prevent prisoners step back and manage them to be used without route to hide and escape ofc looks that were well planned and managed.
Despite this they doesn't knows where now are some prisoners with weapons...
Month ago such number was something between 250-300 specimens.
Gerasimov, Shougu and Putin are very angry cos this...
Plus ofc Bakhmut still isn't taken by orcs.

Prigozin therefore most likely is feeding crying in mass media.

 

[SandisLL]

Russia in Bakhmut area is using special tasks units pros, pro paratroopers and marines....Months in row.
Not only these wagnerites...

If general Gerasimov didn't had provided support for attacks with air defense and jammers, pelengators, listening stations and artillery ....
Ukr long ago had deNazified all wagnerites....

Despite Russia was touted as No2 military in world.....
Ukr still are able to use Su 25 etc even today... a bit...
This.

Also even today majority of weapons used by Ukr still are USSR era production. Aka from 1970-1991...
LOL.

Ofc they does have now also western stuff and still intensively are asking for ammunition etc also for USSR era weapons......cos they use these and a lot of these old weapons.

 

[SandisLL]

I ofc don't trust ukr politicians and never had trusted.
Arestowich is espcially cool specimen...
Zelensky talking about to speed up access process to EU membership and calculating how much will cost reconstruction in Ukraine.
For today's situation it is mental clinic level. .

I had found that Reznikov and Zaluzny are more valuable. Plus they ofc are asking for weapons and ammo but they doesn't ask to transfer money . So kudos.

You keep saying Russia has tons of ammo however all the different news feed I read say different, just as UKR might have shortage. Wagner still doing meat wave attacks, interesting to see how much longer they can do this for.

News feeds are pro western oriented....this....

By simple logic alone both: Belarus and Russia still should have damn a lot of USSR era production ammunition.
It is undeniable, especially if we know that USSR had used for military considerably larger % part of GDP than russia in 2021 th...

There ofc big question is about % of all this stockpile in usable condition ...
Also ofc logistic problems....

There despite mass media claims also aren't proven evidence that weapons and ammunition production in Belarus and Russia had slowed down.
I'm realistic.
While ofc aren't proofs that they managed to increase production.

Exception are these Lancet drones: looks that they really had boosted up their production ammounts they are capable to produce each month....

I certainly wont say your wrong but attacks have slowed down some...why?

 

[SandisLL]

I certainly wont say your wrong but attacks have slowed down some...why?

Imho lack of meat for wagnerites and mud.
Also if you are too close to ukr rus artillery does have limited abilities to support in order not to deNafizy also wagnerites.
There also is option that minefields too are big problem...
USSR had produced insane numbers of mines .....during decades in row...
+ IEDs too might be problem....

One from widely known usage of 122 mm artillery shells is....to be used for IEDs....U just change detonator and vuala....charge for IED is ready....
Ofc also improvised methods to create IEDs does work very well.

In USSR era even special stuff for bobby traps had been produced....
You place this, abowe next mine...
Or stuff and on this stuff something you will want to pick up etc...
It is pressure release sensor...
Remowe item placed on mine and vuala....bah bah.

[San Marino]

How do you think Lyudmila Pavlichenko would have done against a bunch of drunken wagner criminals?

As a sniper she would have done well.
As part of a larger element like an Infantry Squad or Platoon (regular grunt) she would not have done so well.

they took 65% of a heavily fortified city within a month.

ukraine is desperately trying to defend bakhmut that theyre sending 16 year olds to the frontline.

bakhmut is gonna fall with couple of weeks

The Bakhmut show has been playing far longer than a month
