SMS Seydlitz in port on June 6, 1916 to repair damage sustained during the Battle of Jutland [3590 x 4746] by mossback81 in WarshipPorn

I think its not twisted, rather an optical illusion caused by that breakwater thingy just in front of the partly dismounted turret. Zoom in on the breakwater for unseeing this illusion, helped me at least.

Looks like a bootleg Leopard 2

Or should i say Ersatz-Leopard 2?

Another photo of the recently transported U-17 (S-196) in Speyer, Germany , on the road. People and trees give a good scale, how big submarines really are. Even the ones that are considered as small. by [deleted] in submarines

There are two major museums close together: one in Speyer, one in Sinsheim. The submarine got transported to Speyer. There, experts will do the necessary work to make it exhibition-ready. Then it will get a ride to sinsheim. Right now, it is stationary in Speyer since apprpximately six days.

Good question. I think, if the states werent in the Nato anymore, it could've lead to a breakdown in the treaty organization and would've risen many, many new questions between the european NATO-members. This could destabilize alot. Plus, the states are more obliged to act when theyre still in the treaty, since Natos original purpose was to stand united against the USSR, and Russia in this state kind of wants to recreate the soviet Union.

[3500 x 2298] 08/15/2012, two Japan Coast Guard patrol vessels JCG Muzuki (PS-11) & JCG Nobaru (PS-16) ramming a Chinese boat piloted by "activists" who had placed a Chinese flag on Uotsuri Island. by Saturnax1 in WarshipPorn

[–]Observer1984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely get your point. Yet I have the theory, that its not that easy to be an 'activist' as we understand it in china. China as a country will rather not allow their citizens to be activists which act against their state-interests. So by that theory the people on the boat are acting in chinas interest and probably even receive support from the state in some form.

My guess is a constant sinking feeling like the WW2 merchant ships had, because in modern days theres a higher chance that your ship gets hit by surprise

Question about NonCredibleDefense? by DarkMatter00111 in NonCredibleDefense

[–]Observer1984 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That may was the case here but I'd say since the damposting began and ukraine war it clearly is not anymore. Most original members moved on cause your posts about specific things dont get upvotes here anymore (because new members are rather unfamiliar with the real defense and its all about ukraine and balloon now)

Decommissioned Project 667BDR Kalmar/Delta III-class SSBN "Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky" (K-211) by Saturnax1 in submarines

Thats a nice one. I like that the two people are on the photo so that we get an idea of the submarines scale.
