Iran can make nukes in a matter of weeks if need be, why the fuck are they still being so wishy washy with it.

I have no idea which one you're referring to which must mean Australians are on a new level of racism

Likely subsonic rounds that have trouble cycling the action.

Edit: this is why if you happen to be stealthily doing adventurism you should use .45acp, it's subsonic by default and pairs well with a suppressor. In Minecraft.

Too early to say

Freedom to live in cage apartments while worshipping british people.

Yeah that demographics chart from a couple years ago with the 18 year segment being a third of everything else was insane. Even if they lower the draft age they're not even really making that much more people eligible. NATO really wants it to be to the last Ukrainian ig.

The really cheap AliExpress ones and Amazon ones can be hit or miss, but keychron has the C2 which I think is one of the better options for 50 bucks

Hard to say how many were recoverable in Gaza though, you can't exactly follow up to confirm destruction, a lot could have been repaired.

This sounds aggressively German lmao

Yes lmao, if they didn't ignore the minsk agreements and do a coup (maidan) to install a CIA handpicked government, this would not have happened.

Pretty awkward to be the guy in the Russian government tasked to call up the Americans and tell them they're lauching ICBMs but they're conventional warheads don't actually start a nuclear war thanks.

Lsf might as well be r/destiny at this point, they're obsessed with Hasan

I learned cyrillic from a single page infographic on leddit many years ago, and learned what the words actually meant by trying to navigate Russian torrent sites as well. Don't ask me how to carry a conversation in Russian but I will instinctively click the "скачать" button.

This makes a lot of sense on the ZTQ-15 since its already a light tank with pretty thin armour, it wouldn't be expected to hold up to modern ATGMs or APFSDS anyways, but this is a lightweight and cheap way to afford some drone protection.

They can push an entire train across Pyongyang, and get executed by anti aircraft gun and revive months later, you can't underestimate the DPRK.

Its genuinely a good look at what goes on in a language learner's mind, it's almost identical to what happens when I try to make sense of Kanji but read it in the Hanzi meaning but in reverse.

Yep, most countries during WW2 that had enough industry to produce tanks figured out a fairly decent medium tank that you could churn out quickly and cheaply was better than a handful of really expensive good on paper heavy tanks except the Nazis. The Sherman and Cromwell for example. Meanwhile the one chance Germany had of making an actually practical tank after the panzer IV was the panther, but Hitler was such an incompetent micromanager he insisted on giving it enough armour to rival heavy tanks, nullifying the mobility benefits of a medium, making the transmission constantly break, and causing the price and production time to increase.

You see the same thing going on in Ukraine, where western media makes fun of the T series tanks and saying that their Abrams and Leopards and Challengers are so much better. Turns out, that doesn't mean shit when the primary purpose of an MBT is (still) to lob HE at clumps of infantry, and their 70 ton behemoths can't cross bridges or go through mud, and get disabled by drones just like any other tank.

Meanwhile you can say the T-72B and subsequent modernizations are worse in raw specs, but they fulfill their job as mobile fire support for mechanized infantry just fine.

Compared to German tanks with their overloaded transmissions and interleaved road wheels the T-34 is a Toyota Hilux. I should clarify unreliable by modern perceptions of reliability. Even in the cases where the T-34 was hastily churned out under pressure where consistency suffered, e.g. Stalingrad, the ease of repair and abundant spare parts made it far better than Nazi wunderwaffe big cats.
