a war that has eaten more than 6,000 Russian tanks and at least 700 Ukrainian ones
Western "news." Where the numbers are made up and the facts don't matter.
Lol,
76000 Russian tanks down 😂EDIT: note said 6000, not 7000... I am still laughing.
I don't know if it's more hilarious that they're still printing these absurd numbers or that people are still parroting them uncritically.
still parroting them uncritically
This part isn't hilarious, it's sad and bordering on frightening
These people are going to have to deal with reality sooner than later at this point, and it's gonna be a hard pill to swallow.
"Something, something shitty
RussianUSian tanks are so weak, you hit them once and all the ammo cooks off!"Remember when yanks and yankee stans were all foaming at the mouth about how super clever abrams design has ammo in a separate storage, with an armoured screen shielding the crew? IIRC it's also supposed to be kept wet too. "Not like stoopid asiatic sovok design which has no care for the life of the crew and keeps ammo in the tank, alongside the so dangerous autoloader!!!111"
I remember. I remember it well.
Far too well. I know some tech bros who have a regular NAFO circle jerk and this shit was right up their alley.
It's made.it really hard to interact with any of them since finding out about it.
See also the discussion here. Thirty years after USSR was demolished, yanks copied soviet weapons platforms and started selling them as brand new, no analogues evar, exclusive genius ideas. And they couldn't even copy them right
Oh fucking hell. I should have guessed. I work in the public sector and the private always takes our work as well as the credit via public-private partnerships. Same thing they've always done. These capitalist fuckers can't even invent their own stuff anymore.
