Chechen Warlord Shows Off Cybertruck With Mounted Machine Gun
The Liberty Daily ^ | August 19, 2024 | Tyler Durden,

Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov claimed on Telegram on Saturday, “We received a Tesla cybertruck from the respected Elon Musk.”

Kadyrov’s claim that he received a Cyberbeast from Elon Musk or Tesla was not independently confirmed. Given that the US State Department has sanctioned Kadyrov over numerous human rights violations, the warlord more than likely bought the vehicle off the black market or through a third party.

Video uploaded on Telegram shows the warlord parading the Cyberbeast with a heavy machine gun mounted in the rear bed around Chechnya, a republic within the Russian Federation.

Kadyrov said, “I express my sincere gratitude to Elon Musk! This is, of course, the strongest genius of our time and a specialist. Great man! Well, the cybertruck turned out to be a powerful project. Undoubtedly one of the best cars in the world! I literally fell in love with this car.”

“Based on such excellent characteristics, the cybertruck will soon be sent to the North-East Military District zone, where it will be in demand under appropriate conditions. I am sure this “beast” will bring a lot of benefits to our soldiers,” he said.

If the translation is accurate, the Cybertruck could soon be battle-tested on the modern battlefield in Eastern Europe. However, the stainless steel exoskeleton, which can withstand impact from a 9 mm handgun, would need to be upgraded with heavy armor to withstand rifle rounds and IEDs.

On Friday, we were the first to reveal Archimedes Defense and Unplugged Performance’s UP.FIT’s new bolt-on ‘ultimate defense upgrade‘ for the Tesla Cybetruck to protect against “14.5mm heavy machine gun rounds” and “IED/mine protection” for military and defense operations.

Without additional steel and ceramic armor plating to stop heavy machine gun rounds and a ‘V-hull’ to protect the battery pack, plus a turbine generator in the rear to provide constant charging, Kadyrov’s claim the Cybertruck will be sent to the battlefield is just a stunt. After all, a Ukranian kamikaze drone would easily penetrate the glass roof.

Why waste a shot? Just let his battery run out.

His Cybertruck will be left outside the only Starbucks in Grozny. The warlord will be busy inside ordering a double caff-Chai Latte with skim milk.

One of the most important rules of the battlefield is "Look lethal but not important." If that thing shows up on the battlefield, every barrel and drone is going to point in its direction.

When I was in Iraq, a contractor showed up with two armored Chevy Suburbans. Both were shiny black and were washed every day. Both were blown up in less than two weeks.

An electric vehicle would be great for a special forces squad on a night mission that has to be silent and stealthy. I know they had electric boats in Vietnam for that purpose.

Not for any regular war tactics, though.

1) On the one hand, warlord Kadyrov is subject to US sanctions so whoever sent one to Putin's jihadist is gonna get in trouble

2) On the other hand, if we want to actually defeat Putin maybe we should send him all the cybertrucks. LOL!

The corny MegaForce movie had a similar idea in one scene.

I wonder what a good hacker could do. Turn off the car, steer it off a cliff, the options are almost endless,
