The latest news is they got back through Estonia. Too bad, they should have been left to rot in Mordor. Or made to pay for detour through Turkey at the very least.

a) The Red Army hasn’t existed for almost 80 years now.

b) If you like ruskys so much let them intervene in your ass for all I care, but leave us out of that.

In ideal world EU should agree on a handful of red state exports on which we’d apply say 10%, let the US exporters explain their president why that’s wrong and only then enter the negotiations with the US and whatever then the outcome is GET IT IN THE WRITING with his signature.

Yes, he would then try to blame the “evil EU”, but having a written and signed agreement is the only way to prevent this monthly “it’s on - and now it’s off” charade.

Now unfortunately even if anybody had the balls to actually propose it there is too many actors who would shoot any such proposal down. Be it because of fear for their exports or just to be contrarian.

That’s still without NTSYNC patches, right?

This statistic alone doesn’t tell you anything because according to a Land forces production overview table here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_production_during_World_War_II

USSR had Germany beaten in artillery pieces production 5:1.

I think the unwillingness to switch Ukraine to 155mm caliber prior to 2022 has less to do with the west trying to not provoke russia and more with Ukraine’s desire to use existing stocks and tooling in domestic ammo factories. They themselves ordered DANA M2 in 152mm caliber in 2020. Only after the invasion they realized they will need much more ammo then they can produce domestically and west started providing 155mm systems. Already in 2022 Ukraine has been given German PzH 2000, Slovak Zuzana 2, French Caesar and eventually Swedish Archer. The ammo problem simply took time to solve, but it seems European productions is ramping up and the Czech initiative is still ongoing.

The need for armoured cabin is now well understood and I would say that Swedish and Czech solutions go even further with autoloaders and targeting computers reducing the crew needed to as little as 2 and removing the need for the crew to leave the cabin during a fire mission.

Germans called infantry the queen of all arms, soviets called artillery the god of war. We know who won.

Interesting, the article somehow presents this as something new and groundbreaking, but wheeled self-propelled howitzer was introduced by Czechoslovakia and South Africa already in the 80’s. And indeed Czech and Slovak howitzers derived from the original DANA are used by AFU since at least 2022.

And how long are you going to survive in the no man’s land, operating your scissors?

What is eadaily.com? It looks like some kind of russian propaganda rag.

Fuck that, I will gladly use Lemmy to tell tankies to fuck off. And if I get banned on some instances then so be it.

Budweiser Budvar is a Pilsner style beer brewed in České Budějovice. Whatever Anheuser-Busch sells is anything but Czech style beer and Bud Light quite possibly isn’t even a beer in certain jurisdictions.

In a day, the idiot said day.

Genocidal civil war when?

All he had to do was to not force Czechoslovakia to surrender and he didn’t need military presence in Czechoslovakia, deploying troops to France might have been enough. Czechoslovakia had mobilized 1 million man strong army, which would have been able to hold Germans for a considerable time. Not to mention he might have been able to get Poland to join.

Also I am not sure about which Churchill’s plan to protect Poland you are talking as by the time Churchill became a PM, Poland was conquered and Germany was just starting attack on France.

On the other hand Trump haven’t forbidden Ukraine to fight back on their own(yet). Which is what west did to Czechoslovakia.

Fuck also everybody who could, but didn’t vote against him.

Now that is a lie. He only likes himself and Ivanka.

A woman? That sounds like DEI, that’s not allowed in the US of Trump.

it will inevitably cause the US to be isolated in trade

That’s the goal. He isn’t a Kremlin asset, he is a Pyongyang asset, implementing Juche in the US ;)
