Israel planted explosives in Hezbollah's Taiwan-made pagers, sources say
  • An ounce of high explosive won't take down a plane. Even at cruising altitude.

  • Just VDV Problems
  • Apparently, the solution to this is retrorockets -

    Once clear of the plane a single large main chute opens. The deployment of the main chute triggers the deployment of four long rods which hang beneath the pallet. As soon as the rods touch the ground fires, slowing the BMD to a descending speed between 6 m/s and 7 m/s and giving it a relatively soft landing. This system entered service in 1975 and allows a BMD to be relatively safely parachuted with both the driver and the gunner.

  • Where are them
  • Fuck off right off with that briefcase shit, the only non-cringe nuke is the Davy Crockett. Russia's got fuck all to say to the atomic recoilless rifle of freedom.

  • Russian media: Putin fires General Surovikin
  • This comment managed to age poorly really fast.

  • Ukranian soldiers dismantle a 155mm cluster munition to take out submunitions and use them for drone drops
  • Shorts and crocs. All he needed was a cigarette in his mouth while he did it.

  • we have rules now
  • Yo, the mods here are all big jerks

  • rest in piss
  • Say what you will about the guy, he's got more experience shooting down civilian jets than almost anyone.

  • Prigozhin you were the chosen one
  • he was on a plane that crashed in Russia today, possibly because it collided with a a2a missile.

  • Weekly low-hanging fruit thread #11
  • Air defense was also active around Moscow, where it allegedly shot down a plane full of mercenaries.

  • rest in piss
  • Hahaha.

    Also, per the BBC's reporting:

    Earlier, a Wagner-linked Telegram channel Grey Zone reported that the jet was shot down by air defences in Tver region, north of Moscow.

    Surprisingly not surprising.

  • Gravitas: Did Ukraine's 'corrupt officials' misuse western aid?
  • So, you want Ukraine to capitulate and to reward Russia’s imperialist warmongering.

    That’s not a generational thing, that’s a “uncritically accepting Russian propaganda” thing.

  • Teddenheimer
  • A W54 warhead is only 60-70 pounds (30ish kg). Not quite a letter bomb, but you could play a pretty funny prank on someone for relatively modest shipping costs.

  • everyone wake up, new patch just dropped
  • I like that they didn't even try to translate boy kisser into Russian

  • It’s over Kerch Bridge, Big Z has the bridge-closing expert on his side
  • He's a private citizen at this point, he can go meet politicians in other countries if he wants.

  • I HUNGER
  • Thanks for keeping me honest!

  • The keen insights of redfash dialectical criticism
  • Ok, but that caption is completely wrong about what, "the dictatorship of the proletariat," means.

    I like that they had to bring Ukraine into it for no apparent reason.

  • 3000 Empty Threats of Putin
  • Jeez, now everyone's gonna want to glass a city in Russia.

  • 3000 Empty Threats of Putin
  • Ok, ok - just for you we'll glass Moscow.

  • I HUNGER

    I love the X-32, and it’s a shame that MD took over post merger then fucked up Boeing as bad as they did.

    Also, yes I’m just stealing from other communities.

    What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch?

    What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch?

    I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

    Rods from god, but somehow less credible

    Attached: 1 image 1/ Russia's space agency Roskosmos is reportedly evaluating options for using space rockets to drop aerial bombs on Ukraine from orbit. The proposal is likely to face serious technical difficulties, not least the risk of bombs burning up from the heat of atmospheric reentry. ⬇️

    Reproduced here for easier amusement:

    >1/ Russia's space agency Roskosmos is reportedly evaluating options for using space rockets to drop aerial bombs on Ukraine from orbit. The proposal is likely to face serious technical difficulties, not least the risk of bombs burning up from the heat of atmospheric reentry.

    > 2/ The Russian BRIEF Telegram channel reports that former Roscosmos head Dmitry Rogozin has been discussing the proposal with Dmitry Baranov, director general of the Progress Rocket Space Centre, before taking it to Vladimir Putin last week. > > Rogozin reportedly envisages using Russia's Vostochny and Plesetsk cosmodromes to launch bomb-carrying rockets into space to drop "heavy FABs" (presumably the FAB-500 500-kilogram (1,100 lb) general purpose air-dropped bomb) on "NATO equipment" in Ukraine.

    > 3/ Baranov, understandably, has questions. According to BRIEF, he objected that the bombs would overheat on the way down. "It's travelling at over 6 kilometres per second. That's practically space speed. It's like the Soyuz TMA [spacecraft] coming back. It's the same shit."

    > 4/ According to Baranov, rockets launched from Vostochny can carry 7.5 tons, while launches from Plesetsk can carry 10 tons, minus a ton in each case for "insurance". He is said to envisage a 6-9 month timeframe for adapting the rockets into bombers, though he seems to be uncertain about how this can be done. Rogozin reportedly envisages adapting "the toys of the Moscow Institute of Thermal Engineering" to shield the FABs from reentry heat.

    > 5/ BRIEF reports that Rogozin planned to send a paper to Anton Vaino, Putin's chief of staff, who is said to be interested and intending to "report to the chief on this matter". It's not known what Putin himself thinks of the idea

    Own a musket for home defense

    Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.

    Looks like bridgeposting is back on the menu, boys!

    Russia-installed governor Sergei Aksyonov says ‘measures’ are being taken to restore ‘situation’ at bridge, which is a vital logistical link for Russian military

    An upswing in actual, literal shitposting

    Over the past few days , possibly longer, someone has been making new accounts and using them to post scat porn in various communities here. Like, gifs of poop coming from buttholes.

    What the fuck and can we do something about it?

    Hackers fail to attack SWIFT

    blockzeit.com A Hackers Collective Led By Killnet To Attack The SWIFT Network Within The Next 48 Hours

    The famous Russian hacker group, Killnet, has announced that they will launch a massive cyber attack on the Western financial system (SWIFT).

    A Hackers Collective Led By Killnet To Attack The SWIFT Network Within The Next 48 Hours

    Russia backing hackers threatened to disrupt the SWIFT network, causing international banking chaos; the idea is to disrupt western support for Ukraine.

    Judging by my ATM card working just fine earlier today, I guess it was a noncredible threat.
