Russian soldiers trying to decide whether to laugh at the ukies or at the flimsy nato weapons...
The first social media war—how does one decipher this?
We did the same with some Soviet weapons captured in Afghanistan. Turns out we completely misunderstood what the purpose was.
Flimsy NATO weapons?
And the Russians have had to resort to WWII leftovers?
Fact is also that, the Ukies have been capturing Russian weapons, many via Russian defections.
What to make of all the contradicting reports? Who do you want to believe? What reports do you want to believe?
M777 was a perfect example. The thing was so flimsy that it started to deteriorate after 100 rounds fired.
At one point the Ukrainians were aiming the gun then removing the sophisticated optics before firing because the M777 optics didn’t have the durability to withstand high rates of fire.
Typical NATO / USA gold plated overcomplicated fragile crap that is good for the occasional precision strikes on ragheads, but doesn’t last one day in a real war !
Don’t knock the classics. An AR IS flimsy compared to a mosin 91/30.
Gimme an M1 garand over any modern fudd crap you can get at academy any day.
WW2 is still the deadliest conflict in human history. Don’t sell the weapons short.

Oh PLEASE. They weren’t meant to fight wars, they were meant to SEND A MESSAGE. If we wanted weapons to fight wars, we would have bought them from the Russians.
I’m not sure. I really believe that they though their wonder weapons would defeat “low tech” Russia.
I don’t think that the reality will sink in until they lose several carriers in one day to hypersonic missiles / and or drones.
And even then, they will want to escalate to nuclear war, rather than take the L.
You tube.
Suuuure.
Thanks for the Russian propaganda. We count on you to provide it.

Sorry for the double post.
It’s been clear to me that NATO has had no intention of winning this war for Ukraine. Profits and the stock market are all that matter. This video does nothing to change my mind.
