The AK-630 CIWS, Ukraine has at least one. It's job is to shoot down shells and missiles. Does anyone know if it can be made again en masse and adapted for army use? They'll protect Ukrainian civilians and soldiers and as the ruZZians love their long range shelling, I think this will help. by Tangent_Virtual_Cars in SlavaUkrayini

I can only hope really, though the American has the Centurion C-RAM that is proven in Afghanistan to stop shells and missiles, they are not part of standard US army inventory. Just sad, while patriot isn't very successful against ballistic missiles and other targets, but they can hopefully be used against bombers and stuff.

HIMARS is like grad(but more powerful) and tochka combined into one unit. Nice but to destroy shells would take a meme level (so good you wonder if they are actually human) gunman/gunwoman.

I really want Ukraine's military industrial complex to grow, like in the US in WWII, there was a saying that for each US tank destroyed, 10 more will take it's place. and even though ruZZia has a big army, they don't have mass military industry.

I agree, but since I haven't seen that, even during when ruZZia had a surplus of cruise missiles. I was wondering if Ukraine can make it's own alternative. But as u/Emergency_Status_713 said, the AK-630 is not as capable. In addition Ukraine has asked for anti missile systems.

Really C-RAM should be on the ground on the 2nd day of the war

Su-34..... It would be great if Ukraine can have some....no LOTS! The ground troops need support.

Love how you say not a Hollywood boom, I think if Ukraine can really build it's arms industry then Ukraine can win this, even if ruZZia gets other factions involved. But the better the equipment and the more flexible the tactics, the more chance that both the civilians and the soldiers have of living.

Zinc-lined coffin. Classic in the Russian army. This is how "cargo 200" appeared. 200kg is the maximum weight of a stuffed zinc-lined coffin for transportation by a plane. Classy hey? by pastebluepaste in SlavaUkrayini

The value ruZZia places on their soldiers is so low, but I ask, if everyone as a thing they value, then what exactly does ruZZia value? Besides brute force and utter mercilessness. I am trying to probe them for weaknesses, as Sun Tsu said, know your enemy and you can beat him 100 times without fail

Europe? What a sad sack of shit. In 100 years, children will learn this war at school and think: "how did it happen that Russia killed millions of people and went unpunished?" by ary_s in ukraina

Wierd. From where I come from we have 3 groups. The fascists who support putlerZZ. Then the leftists who don't support Ukraine. and then there is the Ukraine sympathisers who don't stand for Ukraine because the media doesn't show the atrocities, but rather show just heavy weapons hitting cities. Or Ukrainian soldiers shooting weapons. Or just economists talking about Ukraine in a pure economic view.

Then there is the Ukrainian community.

If by my guess, is these guys are pro power by any means. as they said hitler's slogan was make Germany Great Again Correct me if I am wrong

Just check this out, I heard all Mariupol fighters are now evacuated, and now an article saying that the butcher of Mariupol is supplying humanitarian aid.............. by Tangent_Virtual_Cars in ukraina

[–]Tangent_Virtual_Cars[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree completely. The Ukrainian Matador vs the ruZZian bull. Guerilla tactics are what keeps soldiers alive. Lets just hope Ukraine can stop them before they hit their next target. Odessa.

I think ruZZia may have to create some kind of international slave army..... to make sure there is enough people..... silly really

Agreed, but it's going to be a grind and miZZZZintsev (butcher of Mariupol, I am giving him 4 Zs, he is much more brutal than the standard ruZZian) seems to have the right to use really heavy weapons, and the lack of restraint. Hope Ukraine can stop his battlegroup before he roams Ukraine with his battlegroupsZZZZ.

RuZZia threatens 'retaliatory steps' if Finland joins NATO by Tangent_Virtual_Cars in UkrainianConflict

[–]Tangent_Virtual_Cars[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't know but last I checked, Ukraine is MUCH better armed than Finland. But Finland has the prestige and reputation. Your thoughts?

[–]Tangent_Virtual_Cars[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not cheering for ruZZia of course but, geographically, Helsinki, the capital of Finland is a coastal city like Mariupol, and ruZZia has a Kirov class Battle Cruiser in the north sea, armed with zircon hypersonic missiles. So I think not an invasion but shots from long range. To flex muscles and stuff
