International Russia/Ukraine Megathread V15

[AWilder]

Yes, and everything is peaches and puppies in the wonderful country of Russia right now.

There's so much freedom there, you can vote for Putin or... Putin and you get a free tea!

 

[Ruthless Ryan]

Surprisingly, yes.

The only people paying a price are Europeans and Americans due to sanctions imposed on Russia. They work around the sanctions while we get record high prices and record inflation.

For all intense and purposes you appear to be a complete idiot....

Simple Ryan, nothing you say ever surprises me.

It's long overdue to get rid of that POS as he's an obvious Russian agent and same could be said about Fico as he even looks like an ugly Russian agent.

Orban now had changed rhetoric about immigrants in order to weasel out a bit.
Now he told that there will be visas and work permits.... while, Jesus, he will reduce appliciants background check process for immigrants from Belarus and Russia.
This means that most likely Hungary quickly might issue damn a lot of work permits for these immigrants.....

Orban and Fico are begging EU and U.K, U.S etc to remove from Russia all sanctions.

Fico told that if Russia will be without sanctions, then with Putin will be easier to negotiate ....
Orban wants to build in Hungary new nuclear reactor and he wants Russian project and Rosatom + for nuclear fuel TVEL as suppliers. Therefore he needs that sanctions from Russia will be removed.
He also wants to purchase fertilizers, natural gas and crude oil from Russia without problems....

You know what is surprising? There were many many things that we were importing from Russia before the conflict. But somehow they are our enemy.

It's all good. Now we just pay a whole bunch more for lower quality products.

LMAO, dude you are just owning yourself, 4.9 billion dollars is a massive drop from the 14 b imported in 2021 demonstrating the effective use of sanctions.

From what I've heard, the North Korean artillery ammo is pretty short range and has been easy picking for loitering munitions which can't easily reach the more modern Russian artillery units.

They've been losing a lot of these older style artillery guns, but they also have lots of them to lose.

North Korean ammo for 130 mm guns does have 17-18 miles range and unfortunately these old soviet 130 mm guns are relatively precise and usable for counter battery fire even considerably more than soviet 122 towed and self propelled guns due to longer barrel and high pressure " powder" load...

Land versions of these guns mainly were produced after World War 2 in order to be used in coastal defense role to damage landing ships etc....

Another thing from old soviet era stuff relatively effective are KS -19 100 anti aircraft guns.... they are usable also in order to shell infantry and till some extent for counter battery fire... / approx the same as German flak88mm long barrel anti aircraft guns from 1944 th... Just caliber larger and shell too ofc...

 

[SandisLL]

Soviets decided to opt for medium pressure howitzers for 122 mm and 152 mm arty for field arty instead 130 mm....high pressure, precise and heavy , a bit too clumsy towed arty.

In general these soviet 130 mm if in mint condition might provide more nasty counter battery fire than Chellenger 2 120 mm with rifled gun.
Only one advantage Chally here does have is that these does have very good ballistic " computers " ....and unlike towed 130 mm arty they are mobile.
Otherwise practical range and payload for shell fired winner there will be this 130mm soviet stuff.....
