They have tanks that are remotely operated. Better than losing a human life.

AI operated weapons have been the source of diplomatic negotiations because some countries want independently operated weapons banned.

That is weapons not under human control.

I’ve seen several examples (pictures) of Abrahms in Iraq taken out by EFPs. Mainly around the road-wheel hubs. I think the Abrahm’s advantage really is the speed and its ability to shoot on the move very accurately. Bogged down and slow in an urban environment? That’s where you hit by pre-prepared munitions like EFPs and deadly.

“Cheering on Russian destruction of an American tank? “

It wasn’t an American tank, it was a Nazi Ukrainian tank, Hooray!
You cheer for Palestinian terrorists or ISIS when they are carrying an AR-15? Wouldn’t want to root against that “American” rifle! LOL

Seruzawa: “Er. There are no more Soviets.”


Vermont Lt: “There are a bunch on FR. “


This is the 1980s NostalgiaCon mentality that has given us this pointless war.

Maybe you’ve got video of those keystone cop Russians in Avdiivka this month. I know you have video of your soul mate Azov Brigade brothers making their triumphant rout from the city. Damn! I hurt my hand on that knee slapper. Thanks, keep ‘em coming.

How is that a comparison, we don’t support and supply that side.

While I might hope that Free Republic posters that support Russia are not actually Americans, I’m afraid that most of them are. This goes past isolationism. I can understand isolationism even if I disagree with it, but outright support of an aggressor state by people who consider themselves to be patriotic Americans is beyond my understanding.
I can understand that just regular people don’t realize the damage being done to US interests in the western Pacific by our perceived abandonment of a state we were seen to promise to support. But I can’t understand or forgive Republican politicians that are well aware of the damage they are doing to long term US interests.

“There’s $4.3million (approx) in your tax dollars burning. Feel better yet?”

That was bought and paid for DECADES ago.

No continuity in the video or even an after action photo. Just someone saying an M1 was destroyed. Bogus. I have seen a video of Russians shooting at the windows of an up armored Hummer and marveling at how the windows do not break.

Biden did. Why do you think he ordered all our stuff left behind in Afghanistan?

America is bankrupt, collapsing and successfully invaded by 7 million invaders since Joe Biden became President. Hence, opposition to the NeoCon Ukraine-ending project.

This isn’t complicated.

For the Honor of the Regiment.

Would you require Planetary Siege Units (Mark XXXIII BOLO) or would Continental Siege Units (Mark XXIV BOLO) be sufficient?

Why do I get a celebratory vibe from that post? Maybe from the exclamation point?
