It looks to me that the only thing paying a high price for Russia's cheap bombs is America's reputation as a leader.

There has been footage of usage of cluster munitions, but this article does not mention it.

Boo f-n hoo. Anyone who hangs around with the sand-Nazis takes the chance of getting blowed up. So don’t hang around with sand-Nazis.

Article seems to spend much of its time complaining the bombs the Russians are using are just not expensive enough. It works, it’s cheap, it’s good. What’s the problem,

Tyler seems to be the major contributor to Foxtrot Alpha site - some good vids of AC130s - and the upside down AC130J in the process of being totaled.

Our author seems to be of the ‘kinder, gentler’ variety of war/mil reporter, who finds himself reporting on an actual war machine in operation and comes away a bit dazed.

>>(Be warned that what you’re about to see is the bombing of an actual city caught on video, one that may have resulted in casualties.)

When you drop bombs, you hope that it results in casualties. That’s how war works, Nancy-boy. You make the enemy beg for peace.

I have a ton of WWII videos of all sorts of cities and places being bombed. I’m pretty sure people were killed. They have no such warning because people were adults in the 20th century.

We say “collateral damage”.

The Russians say “bonus damage”.

Russians planes come back to base with all ordinance expended, as it should be.
