This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

Switchblades and the Russian Navy? I am delighted the UK is supplying the anti ship Harpoon to Ukraine.
The mini 300 and 600 series Switchblades are also being supplied by the US, and though most often seen as a land weapon, I was wondering if they had enough power to damage the bridge of a warship and tear away radar and communications antennas. At least the ships may have to return to a base to be repaired. I searched and at about the 5 minute mark of this video they actually hint they could be effective at sea and show animation of a robot submarine launcher. Hope we are supplying this if it is indeed in production.

 
Oh the horror! Russian models are suffering!

Times are tough when Russians can’t even buy pants.
 
Think they only requested 4 to do an evaluation under their combat conditions?

"The role of the Bushmaster is to provide protected mobility transport (or protected troop lift capability), with infantry dismounting from the vehicle before going into action. As the Bushmaster is lightly armoured, the term Infantry Mobility Vehicle (IMV) was initially adopted to distinguish it from a heavier wheeled or tracked armoured personnel carrier, such as the ASLAV and M113 also in Australian service. The high-hard steel specified for Bushmaster meant that it offered better ballistic and IED protection than existing aluminium alloy clad ASLAVs and M113. Later the Bushmaster's designation was changed to Protected Mobility Vehicle (PMV).[5]"

This was an interesting post about what modern nuclear warfare would likely look like.

"Attacking cities only allows for one thing, it invites retaliation on your own populace which no sane leader will accept willingly. So, unless a city has a vital political or military target located near it, common sense says they wouldn’t be hit. But there are other reasons of which I will get to in a moment."

Thank god we have the rational bunkered down (likely sick) recluse who has convinced his country their fighting nazis and is allowing his guys to rape and shoot civilians.

Not some crazy guy or something.

I'm emailing a 50 year old Russian woman (no pics) I know that lives in Siberia. She has 100% drank the Putin propaganda.

She says 80% of the Russian people support Putin.

Here's her translated email madness:

"People in the city of Bucha near Kiev died at the hands of the Ukrainian military - Scott Ritter

American military analyst, former UN weapons inspector in Iraq Scott Ritter, at a webinar on events in Ukraine, expressed his assessment of the actions of the Ukrainian and Russian armies. He noted that Russia, which had controlled Bucha for several weeks, had good relations with the local population.

While the Ukrainian national police officially announced on April 1 that they were heading to Bucha “to purge and eliminate collaborators.” The expert noted that the Russian military is taking all possible measures to avoid civilian casualties in Ukraine - this is different from the approach demonstrated by the Armed Forces of Ukraine."

I responded that thousands of innocent Ukranians being killed, that it's bad for Russia, that Putin is a dictator, etc.

I don't think she believes me. Complete madness.
 

"The European Parliament is urging all member states to immediately embargo all Russian energy imports and to more fully apply sanctions. On Thursday, 513 MEPs voted for the resolution measure with 22 voting against and 19 abstaining. The European Parliament does not have the power to force countries to comply, but even countries like Germany and Italy, which are especially dependent on Russian energy, have expressed a willingness to work towards cutting off Russia. The resolution included full bans on the import of Russian oil, coal, nuclear fuel and gas, which are currently flowing freely (and largely sanction-free) into the bloc. The parliament also called on G20 leaders and multinational organizations including UNHRC, Interpol, the World Trade Organization, UNESCO and others to cut Russia from membership, stating that doing so “would be an important sign that the international community will not return to business as usual with the aggressor state.”

Man if this happens I’m afraid of what Putin might do. History doesn’t repeat itself but it often rhymes. I can see him attacking other regions in Eastern Europe due to this
