Re: Ukraine 2021(?)
EDIT: Better ( I ASSUME).....transcript
https://www.joeydevilla.com/2022/02/...krainian-soil/ Woman: Who are you? Soldier: We have exercises here. Please go this way. Woman: What kind of exercises? Are you Russian? Soldier: Yes. Woman: So what the **** are you doing here? Soldier: Right now, our discussion will lead to nothing. Woman: You’re occupants, you’re fascists! What the **** are you doing on our land with all these guns? Take these seeds [sunflower seeds — the sunflower is Ukraine’s national flower] so at least sunflowers will grow when you all lie down here. Soldier: Right now, our discussion will lead nowhere [clearly, they’ve been given talking points]. Let’s not escalate this situation. Please. Woman: What situation? Guys, guys. Put sunflower seeds in your pockets, please. You will lie down here with the seeds. You come to my land. Do you understand? You are occupiers. You are enemies. Soldier: Yes. Woman: And from this moment, you are cursed. I’m telling you. Soldier: Now listen to me — Woman: I’ve heard you. Soldier: Let’s not escalate the situation. Please go this way. Woman: How can it be further escalated? You ****ing came here uninvited. Pieces of ****. |
Re: Ukraine 2021(?)
Announcement on Swedish TV now by the prime minster; Sweden is to ship 5000 light anti tank weapons to Ukraine. These are not Rb 57 (NLAW) or Grg (Carl Gustaf) however but Pansarskott 86 (usually called AT-4 internationally).

Re: Ukraine 2021(?)
Weapon 81 in the Swede OOB I believe?

Re: Ukraine 2021(?)
We are adding these things in and it's a "good thing"(tm) that nations are helping out....... the problem is they will only get into use if this conflict drags out and the longer this drags on........ well it isn't good ( for anyone )
The Ukrainians needed these in their hands from the very start but who knows maybe they will get to where they are needed but thinking..... probably not. |

Maybe a few OOB066 Weapon 107..., don't know. Finland announced it intends to hand over 1500 "single shot anti tank weapons" - I guess that means M72 LAW or APILAS. |
Re: Ukraine 2021(?)
We've put a few of the reported weapons in and built units to use them along with Citizen Militia units and a vehicle but for now that going to be it. To many variables and too much is happening too fast to try to keep up or we'll end up with an abbreviated version of the USA OOB when we had to take out all the "future weapons systems" that never happened and we ( I ) had to tear the OOB apart and rebuild it to reflect "reality".

Re: Ukraine 2021(?)
I can understand that. I'm happy they get the stuff but OOB work is going to be major headache if Ukraine gets flooded with all kinds of kit.
Norway pledges 2000 M72 LAWs too. Not sure if it brings anything much different to the table compared to what is already in the OOB but the math is interesting. Say only one in four of these foreign supplied weapons hits a target that would still be a considerable number of damaged or killed vehicles... |
Re: Ukraine 2021(?)
Lot's of photos of wrecks but no way to confirm who's they are unless there are subtle hints I have not been able to decipher but there has been a cornucopia of high quality photos of T-72's published lately.... some working.. some never likely to again
AT4/Pansarskott 86 is just a more capable M72. If you had the choose one pick the AT4..... if all you have is an M72 it will do the job for most things you'd need it for IF it can get it to where it would do the most good |
Re: Ukraine 2021(?)
Even Mig-29 and Su-25 will be send to Ukraine :angel

Re: Ukraine 2021(?)
As a tie in with the post I made the other day
The quality of the equipment seems really sub par and " well used" . LINK Recalling the comment made in the movie Kelly's Heros by Moriarty when they "acquired" the Tiger Quote:
