Does anyone know how to fly a helicopter and/or have a helicopter?

    Didn't know the Polish president posted on hexbear.

    It appears that the Russians were correct about the partition of Ukraine.

      Poland must be so excited to be on the other side of a partition. Good for them, I guess.

        They were pretty eager to grab land after WW1, so it wouldn't be unprecedented.

          Hopefully for the annexed Ukrainians the Poles won't remember what Bandera did to them...

            if you follow boxing, one of the HW champions is Olexandr Uysk, a Ukranian. His next fight is sort of a homecoming, but obviously they can't stage it in Ukraine, so it's gonna take place in Poland. There are hints that Zelensky might make an appearance, might be just remotely. The funny thing is, I've seen the red and black Banderite UPA flags in the audience of Usyk fights, would be quite a sight to see them flying in the audience in Poland.

    i'm gonna follow the Belden rule re the helicopter, because i couldn't even pilot one in Battlefield

    however, I can also drive a car and due to the aforementioned hours of playing Battlefield know how effective a few C4s strapped to a jeep can be, so I'm in

      My car can fit 3 other people. I get pretty good fuel efficiency so we could invade Ukraine cheaply.

        I got a bag of chips, 4 bottles of powerade, and a cool sword I got at a garage sale. I'm ready for war

        we got to be back after like 4 days though. I don't know how long Biggs can take care of himself alone

          My dog has like a 12 hour bathroom window. I figure if we take Kiev and capture Zelenskyy then we can just like tell him to surrender or something and get home fast.

            Cool. I'll show up in my Kazuma Kiryu cosplay and demand Zelensky face me in a 1v1 shirtless fistfight on top of the tallest building in Kiev. We should have this all settled and still get home in time to catch Jeopardy

              I could beat him up. He shouldn't have fucked with me if he didn't want to be beat up because I'm Mr. Punching and Kicking People. I'm the last guy he should have p*ssed off.

    If we really wanted to we could invade New Zealand and install a new government. Everyone here knows where the magazine release is on an M16, from years of playing Call Of Duty. Realistically the Red Pill Reaction Force would be far more effective than half the world's militaries. The Red Pill is 120 thousand fit college educated middle class men. If we really wanted to we could invade New Zealand and install a new government. We definitely have the manpower. There are plenty of veterans here. Plus everyone here knows where the magazine release is on an M16, from years of playing Call Of Duty. Realistically the Red Pill Reaction Force would be far more effective than half the world's militaries. The Afghan military is fucked up on opium. The Iraqi army cant even do jumping jacks.. Plus New Zealand has only 8 thousand military personnel the majority of whom are useless paper pushers. I don't actually support the violent overthrow of New Zealand. I just think its kind of a fun idea conceptualy.

    As we can see, Redditors are the world's most dangerous army. If we invaded Ukraine we'd be in their sights. It'd be over before you can say slobber zucchini.

      Red Pill Reaction Force

      Putting the "Reaction" into "Reaction Force".

      It's a shame they didn't try it though. I'd love to see 120k chuds realize that their M16s aren't going to do them any good against one small patrol boat with a 20mm autocannon.

        It was something that was posted to Reddit during gamergate (I think on kotaku in action, but not sure, one of those cesspits).

    No, but I can probably open some sort of interdimensional portal

    I mean, I've never done it or have an idea how to do it

    But I feel like I could, you know?

      If we had that, we could defeat Ukraine and presumably Russia as well. This would secure the most territory.

    Why don't we try invading something easier first, like Niue, Sealand, or some random billionaire's private island?

      Right now we have the element of surprise. If we take territory we won't.

    if you can put me into a La-9 I will use my skills honed in the skies of War Thunder to empty all 300 rounds of the 23 mm NS-23 cannons towards Ukraine's air defense. I may not strike anything with a single round - but I will fire. don't ask me to fly anything more modern I haven't researched any WW2 era jets yet and you need at least one to research the first helicopter!!!
