Russian tube situation...not great. Lines up with analysis of depot imagery showing lots of stored but possibly inoperable guns have been stripped of their barrels.
Thankfully we aren't currently attacking our neighbors like we think it's still the nineteen hundreds.US has a similar bottleneck with just Watervliet Arsenal making large caliber gun tubes.

The government has an RFP out for contractors to make additional barrels. Also considering the massive lopsidedness in how the US vs Russia utilizes tube artillery 200 year out of the US facility vs 200 a year out of the Russian facilities have very different implications.
Man have you ever heard such whining from the Country that went to war for arbitrary reasons. I mean they whine about everything....whine whine whine. They could of course stop all this bullshit but simply with drawing to their international recognized borders.Russians complaining that the Ukrainian FPV drone advantage is 10:1 and that it is quite unpleasant. Laments the lack of anything like their Baba Yaga.

Would be amusing to know how long a t-62 can actually last on the battlefieldHere is the end of the war in a single chart;

The T-62's continued rise in Russian tank losses.
I suspect it's similar to leaving an unpatched winXP box exposed to the Internet.Would be amusing to know how long a t-62 can actually last on the battlefield![]()
Been thinking about this today... is there any great difference to the survival rate of a T-62 and a T-90 in the hostile environment known as Ukraine? Modern day anti-tank weapons don't seem to care much whether its an older model Russian tank or a newer one... they all go smoky or bang after a while.Would be amusing to know how long a t-62 can actually last on the battlefield![]()
Not really no. There's probably a few iterations of the 90 that came along with some actual defensive capabilities, but every indication is that javelins gives zero shits.Been thinking about this today... is there any great difference to the survival rate of a T-62 and a T-90 in the hostile environment known as Ukraine?

Gotta say those javelins and drones are cost effective. Modern warfare will soon consist of geeks in front of monitors as we have drone wars and actual lives are not lostNot really no.

Getting closer to 'A Taste of Armageddon'.Gotta say those javelins and drones are cost effective. Modern warfare will soon consist of geeks in front of monitors as we have drone wars and actual lives are not lost![]()
During a supposed attack by Vendikar, Anan 7 explains that the war is conducted as a computer simulation, and that the Enterprise has been "destroyed" in the attack. The two planets have a treaty, according to which they must kill the "victims" of every simulated attack.
