The first imitation missile launcher took two months to design and cost about 3,000-4,000 hryvnia (£60-80). Since then, he has fine-tuned the manufacturing process, knocking them out in a matter of days and slashing the price to just 1,000 hryvnia – a fraction of the estimated £790 cost of a Russian artillery shell.

In one video, a soldier can be heard saying: “Look how the Russians strike, the morons,” while demonstrating the damage caused to the decoys by a barrage of Russian shells. “Twenty rounds per strike; $20,000 [£15,850] for each Stugna made by you guys,” he added.

Morons...It’s successful. So name the man, the village he works in, what it’s made of and everything.

Ukes are bright.

The tactic worked quite well for Rommel.

One of the Kubel "tanks" employed by the Afrika Korps. A wooden body/turret set atop an automobile.

The Doolittle Raiders used broom sticks to mimic gun barrels in the gun turrets removed to lesson the weight.

Came upon hundreds of fake tanks in Desert Storm. Crude, 55 gal drums with pipe gun tubes but very well placed. Dug in with sandbags out front to reduce dust when firing and sheet metal devices on poles designed to give radar signature.

Good enough that we were briefed the area was occupied and even had a unit designation.

In his day job he designs houses? In a war zone?

How dire is the situation?

I occasionally follow a guy on Facebook who is a Ukranian musician. He lives in Kiev and is still playing music and doing concerts. Sounds like much of life is pretty normal

From the article: "Homemade Potemkin army helps Kyiv protect the dwindling resources it does have, as leaders plead for more Western aid"

More aid! More aid! More aid! The Ukes could win if only they had MORE WESTERN AID!

Meanwhile OUR border remains wide open and unprotected, allowing terrorists and barbarians to flood into OUR country to prey on American Citizens.

And what do we hear from zeepers about that?

But that's to be expected because many zeepers hate America. Right, Chad?

An excerpt for Chad's essay, "Stranger in a Strange Land; When you feel like a foreigner in your own country" (h/t Rocco Di Pippo)

Stranger In A Strange Land

“I don’t have any friends here. Nor, really, do I want any. There’s nothing I see in ninety-nine percent of Americans I encounter that would motivate me to become friends with them, even if there were the remotest chance of that happening. We would have nothing in common. Most of the few close friends I’ve had have been people originally from outside the United States, or at least have lived outside the United States for an extended period of time. Maybe that makes me an “elitist” despite growing up near the bottom of the social totem pole. I don’t care.”

Typical zeeper.
