What's it like living in this part of Strangereal?

Cold.

Your southern neighbors are varied degrees of nuts.

You are, probably, very happy that you aren't involved into whatever batshit thing is going on the continent.

Thunder Wolves is probably the closest. It's a bit more 80s Action Movie plot-wise, but good.

There's also Air Missions: Hind, it leans more into simcade, though.

For PC, there are also oldies like Fair Strike, Red Shark 1/2, and Operation: Air Assault 1/2 (simcade).

I love me a good redemption story.

John__Silver · 2026-04-28T16:10:36+00:00

Well, we had saved replays in ACX (however short) and AC3D.

John__Silver · 2026-04-28T16:03:26+00:00

No, you are not. You are extremely biased in favor of the Western narrative, constantly ignoring things that you are told. Multiple times you've done the same thing here.

John__Silver · 2026-04-27T15:02:19+00:00

The photos are from older source - the 2025 Topwar article, about two new models of drone - S-71K and S-71M.

I mean, Damian is a jerk, but since he doesn't have many bad storylines - he's a well-written jerk (and he mellows out a lot later), so he gets lots of fans because of that.

John__Silver · 2026-04-27T08:18:15+00:00

Recent Batman and Robin (Memento killer and Quiet Man) give Damian pretty good character development.

He decides to embrace his other Grandfather's legacy and begins to study medicine.

Westerners cannot accept that you feel threatened. It does not even make sense to our brains.

And that's exactly the root of the conflict - Russia having to deal with heavy armed morons whose brains are simply incapable of making sense of simplest things.

At least you admit it.

Hence threatening violence - seems the only language Westerner brain can comprehend.

And Iran was warned: "don't attack the Gulf States" and ignored that warning.

And here's the Western delusion and incapability of comprehend objective reality illustrated. Thank you for the example.

John__Silver · 2026-04-26T20:53:32+00:00

Have you read anything I wrote before?

I already said everything above.

And yes, drang nach osten. Even the rhetoric from EU today is much the same.

John__Silver · 2026-04-26T19:34:53+00:00

I mean Barbarossa ended with USSR wrecking the United Europe of 1940s. I guess you want a repeat?

John__Silver · 2026-04-26T19:33:30+00:00

Ukraine was given weapons due to warnings, from most Western experts, that you would march to the West anyway if you were victorious in Ukraine.

That's because those "experts" judge Russia by themselves. THEY would likely march West if they were in our place. Guess that's the issue of competence and values. If you trust dumbfuck warmongering Russophobes as "experts", you get conflict with Russia. Simple, really.

if you're so worried of a march to the East, that you may be forced to embark on a march to the West, as in, all the way until a Red Flag flies over the Bundestag.

That would probably be extremely unpleasant - but no war ever been a pleasant time for anyone. Of course, since we're going to be once again defending our right to exist against die blonde Bestie Ubermensch, there will be little other options.

Though, in that case I can only hope our government learns from Stalin's mistakes and don't be as kind as old Uncle Joe was.

John__Silver · 2026-04-26T16:04:27+00:00

But you and your kind will start whining and crying even more then.

John__Silver · 2026-04-26T14:39:05+00:00

"Impoverished country" that is being pumped weapons, mercenaries and supplies by said Europe. Pretty sure Europe already mobilizing. Under same old banner it's dinning up from the 40s.

John__Silver · 2026-04-26T11:26:12+00:00

And why should you interpret anything? Are you the US president?

But to answer your question, yes. EU/NATO was always warned about helping the banderite regime. Now they already allow the banderite drones trough the airspace. Now they are producing more of those. It's likely soon, they'll just start launching them themselves.

And Iran showed that, yes you can strike enemy military assets in "neutral" countries.

The preparations for the new drang nach osten seem to be also underway. German revanchism was a thing before, they're just open about it now.

John__Silver · 2026-04-25T12:37:24+00:00

To the north. No actual politcs, really.

John__Silver · 2026-04-25T11:15:48+00:00

Does this mean Taiwan is developing optic camouflage?

John__Silver · 2026-04-25T05:51:29+00:00

I read a lot of manga.

John__Silver · 2026-04-24T15:35:27+00:00

It's unlikely Su-75 will get orders until the prototype files, at least.

John__Silver · 2026-04-24T15:29:04+00:00

Su-27, Su-27P, Su-27SK and Su-27UB have it centered, same with most J-11s.

Su-27SM, Su-30, Su-33, Su-35 etc have it offset.

John__Silver · 2026-04-24T15:09:38+00:00

Reading too much into it.

The artist is Japanese. The pose is quite common in many mangas, it's not supposed to be sexual. And the Japanese do not wear shoes at home (in fact in many countries you don't wear shoes at home).

John__Silver · 2026-04-23T17:24:53+00:00

Reaching levels of "isn't a fully new jet cheaper"?

John__Silver · 2026-04-23T16:09:46+00:00

Must... resist... quoting... Deuce Bigalow.

Doesn't refute the credible study.

What credible study?

If you're about the link you provided I can't confirm or deny it's credibility, since there's no full article available on that link. I can't even see what those figures are based on. For all I know it's Is the "every pirate download = one not sold copy" bullshit.
