For the most part I agree but if the financial and real estate crisis continue to grow and lots of money is lost and xi as supreme leader has fingers pointed I can see a coup yes he will hammer down but if it is as wide spread as I think it will be and similar thing with Putin they both could have a Mussolini moment
I don’t mean to be contrary but I am not talking about shaped charges or artillery or maverick missles I am talking about the plethora of videos of vehicles of all types being taken out with grenades dropped down hatches and mortars dropped from drones. Logs would have stopped the damage as noted in the drone video that showed a mortar or grenade dropped down an open hatch(pro tip close the hatches war has changed) and the vehicle catches on fire the vehicle right behind it has of course open hatches but three pieces of ordnance are dropped on it all miss the open hatches and basically no damage to the vehicle. Lol I know this is perhaps a pet pive of mine but the first vehicle burned up because the ordinance went through and open hatch. A closed hatch a pice of plywood or logs would have stopped that. Lol last post on this will drop it :)
RKG-1600 is a Ukrainian adaptation of the RKG-3 anti-tank grenade with 3D printed stabilization fins and modified fuzing for dropping from commercial drones. Here's a picture:

Yesterday or the day before, Speedy posted a link of a grenade dropped from a DJI Mavic 3 drone. That grenade looked like a 40mm grenade which, to my knowledge, does not have a shaped charge. Logs would probably be effective against this type of grenade.

Please feel free to challenge/discuss anything WRT my posts...you are not being contrary and I will readily admit when I have misspoken.
Lol thanks for the kind reply. I have seen where they are repurposing cluster munitions for the drones. The dirty not so secret secret is that these tactics by the Ukrainians have changed warfare forever. Wouldn’t want to be a tanker or a soldier hunkered down in a trench. Cheap Drones dropping munitions, guided artillery shells, getting dangerous out there….
Huh? The Kharhov oblast where the "offensive" took place is more than 300 miles from Lugansk.
You apparently have no clue about the subjective matter.
