We've seen one used as a suicide vehicle and one damaged by someone somewhere, but now there were at least two videos showing them in action in a span of like a week
This is definitely a step-up, maybe some vatniks around Robotyne have the displeasure of operating them, I would assume they were given T-55s as replacements now that Zapo is quiet again, but then some drunken general had the brilliant idea to attack Robotyne and eliminate Ukrainian gains as a show of military prowess
I dont think I've ever seen a T55 used as improvised artillery
I guess I'm willing to believe it might have happened at some point, in between all the frontal assaults on entrenched Ukrainian positions

That sounds like a bad thing. Wouldn't firing off decades old shells and Nork Mystery Ammo be really bad for your health if you can't get the gasses out of the tank?
>Wouldn't firing off decades old shells and Nork Mystery Ammo be really bad for your health if you can't get the gasses out of the tank?
It's probably still not as bad as one day in Norilsk
Not surprising when you remember Murz losing his mind mid last year about exactly that, then being threatened by his immediate vatBlack person superiors to be quiet about it. If I'm not mistaken, he laughed at them, thanked them for the tea they gave, and went away

>The Russian soldier is one of the bravest men in Europe. His tenacity almost equals that of the English and of certain Austrian battalions. As John Bull boasts of himself, he does not know when he is beaten. Russian squares of infantry have resisted, and fought hand to hand, a long while after the cavalry had ‘ broken them; and it has always been found easier to shoot them down than to drive them back. Sir George Cathcart, who saw them in 1813 and ‘14, as allies, and in 1854 in the Crimea, as enemies, gives them the honorable testimonial that they are “incapable of panic.” Beside this, the Russian soldier is well made, healthy, a good marcher, a man of few wants, who can eat and drink almost anything, and more obedient to his officers than any other soldier in the world. And yet the Russian army is not much to boast of. Never, since Russia was Russia, have the Russians won a single battle against either Germans, French, Poles, or English, without being vastly superior in numbers. At even odds, they have always been beaten by any army, except Turks or Prussians; and at Citate and Silistria, the Turks, though inferior in numbers, defeated them ... The Russian, imitator as he is in everything, will do anything if ordered or compelled, but will do nothing if he has to act upon his own responsibility; in fact, this term can hardly be applied to a being who never knew what responsibility was, and who will go to be shot at with the same passive obedience as if he were ordered to pump water, or to whip a comrade. To expect from the Russian soldier, when acting on out-post duty or in skirmishing order, the rapid glance of the Frenchman, or the plain common sense of the German, would be an insult to him. What he requires is command-clear, distinct command — and if he does not get it, he will perhaps not go backwards, but he will certainly not go forwards, nor use his own senses.
-- Friedrich Engels, 1855
I honestly wish we had some old-timey nineteenth century statesmen in charge of the Ukraine war and support efforts, at least they weren't afraid of the Russians and saw them for what they are.

You know I kinda wish Ukraine activated their t-55s except they gave them new stabilized lightweight turrets with L7s or something. Surely tearing down old t-55s and building them up again to be light 105mm tanks isn't a difficult task with all of Europe's help. You could really improve things well beyond the M-55s.
Don't be a gay. Admission of bad news isn't vatBlack personism.
Ukraine is not fighting Russia. Ukraine is fighting Russia AND their soviet stockpiles AND Iranian stockpiles AND Nork stockpiles AND China's stockpiles. All while the West finally supplied GLSDBs, a fricking year after they were promised. Europe is ramping up it's production of 155mm shells. For the tenth fricking time this year. Results inconclusive. F16s totally didn't get delayed again. Who knows, maybe Ukraine will get an extra LeoA1 this year! Avdiivka wouldn't have fallen if Ukies literally didn't run out of ammo.
I am demoralized not by mongolpidor shills, but by the unbelievable moronation of the west. If Puccia didn't act on bad intel and instead properly prepared for the initial invasion, we'd probably not be here, shitposting. We'd be conscripted to fight near Warsaw or even Berlin, if this is the speed of western support.
Ukies still have plenty of fight left in them, especially with the ramped up native drone production which makes those Txx tanks look a lot less scary. But this shit is abysmal. Ukies should be expanding to Sochi and Bilgorod, not penny pinching arty shells.
NATO as a whole has done the bare minimum. It took 18 months to get 300 IFVs and a paltry number of tanks.
There should have been 1000 Bradleys, 500 tanks and SOF/glowBlack person black ops running around Donbabwe assassinating Russian officers and blowing up supply depots.
Anon, the point is that those countries are autocracies. They can order their slave cattle to do whatever the ruling cast wants. Like spam arty shells and drones. The quality may be shit. Real fricking shit. But, again, Russia has them and Ukraine does not. While their supplies aren't unlimited, they still have plenty. And they don't need to adhere to anything resembling western standards of quality, so the cost/benefit is very high in their favor. Think 100 western pristine high-quality shells to 10k dogshit nork shells. Even if more than half are filled with literal dog turds, that's still quite the numerical advantage.

Anon you can defeat this tank from any angle with an AT4. It's paper.
Yeah, if you have the AT4 and didn't run out months ago. And that, not very impressive by modern standards, oldass 100mm cannon can still do plenty of damage. $499.99 Ukie drones will smoke them ezpz, but if they even get one shot off in Ukies general direction it's already favorable to Puccia.
>but if they even get one shot off in Ukies general direction it's already favorable to Puccia.
I love how worthless Russian lives are. >An old tank+shells+maintenance+crew members=one(1) shot towards the enemy in value
Any sapient race would overthrow their leaders in seconds if you told them that about an offensive war far away from them.
>Yeah, if you have the AT4 and didn't run out months ago
A T-55 is at genuine risk from getting penned through the front hull by fricking modern 40mm APFDS
If you have anything even resembling an anti-tank weapon it's a goner, old RPGs or LAWs will go straight through the turret from the front.

You are acting like it isn’t the USA plans all along to extend this war for as long as possible because every month it goes on is a weaker Russia. Once we realized the hilarity of russias army in Feb 22 they decided to see how far they would go. Now we have half a million dead, Black Sea fleet destroyed, all the new tanks and planes verified memes, etc.
unfortunately Ukraine is the victim here.
Oh I'm sure that's their plan. Now as an American, I have a healthy distrust of our intelligence services, but I think even I can give them the benefit of the doubt in assuming that not even they ever thought Russia would commit THIS heavily. Yeah they were the ones originally saying Russia would invade, but I bet that the original prediction was Russia would have given up MUCH sooner. And the fact that they haven't is absolutely moronic on their part as every month under sanctions equals several months, potentially years, of being sanction-free to hope to undo the damage that month of sanctions did.
Russia is literally bleeding themselves dry by continuing the invasion. Their original goals of the war are completely and 100% unattainable now, and even if they could magically teleport 100 T-14's into Kyiv and execute Zelensky on live television, they will STILL have lost because they've burned through so much irreplaceable military equipment, and most importantly of all, trust. You think the West is going to reinvest into Russia after pulling out or that smart foreign born people will want to ever move to Russia? Frick no, not unless there's huge changes in Russia's political class. We tried to reintegrate Russia into the world after the collapse of the USSR in the hopes that they could become a normal country and we've given them so many chances to just, act fricking normal.
Tldr but yeah what the absolute frick will taking Ukraine do for them now? Congrats they have a single country except now they're more isolated than best korea.
>it isn’t the USA plans all >TRUST THE PLAN!
as soon as you stop coping about the indecisive homosexuals in charge not knowing what they are doing the sooner you can realize the geriatic le escalation meme is playing straight into the snow monkeys hands. This war could have been snuffed out in ukraine, now its going to spread by getting belarus occupied and balts under attack in the coming years. This is growing into a regional war guaranteed while the senile morons still kvech their ass if hitting sams, radars and airfields inside russhitia is going to get the NOOK-OOKed
This. The weapon trickle into Ukraine already cause so much damage to the war effort, it's almost like moronic sabotage. But that's just not enough, they are actively showing Russians that they're terrified of nukes and still don't allow Ukraine to fully fight back.
What morons here don't realize is that if Russia attacks NATO, they can still hide behind "muh nooks". The best outcome is that NATO trashes the invading army, but they sure as frick will not invade Russian territory. They will be too terrified to do that, and it's exactly the message they are sending at the moment.
Why would Russians not try their luck? At worst they lose worthless men and equipment.
You're giving the US government waaaaaaaaaaaay more credit than it deserves, expecting them to have a long-term strategic plan. They're acting out of a desire to placate the military and intelligence agencies (who want russia wiped off the map), the domestic voter base (who want nothing to do with foreign wars), and congress (who want no money to ever be spent on anything, nor the illusion of money being spent i.e. sending old stockpiles), and the way they do this is by picking a nonworkable middle ground that pleases no one and accomplishes nothing.
The way we solve this problem is for voters and congress to demand decisive action, not by pretending everything is fine.
>You are acting like it isn’t the USA plans all along to extend this war for as long as possible because every month it goes on is a weaker Russia.
I think Russia is a thuggish, self-interested banana republic in decline. When you have to escalate your commitment to retain your position you're in long-term decline. But the problem with "[nation] is in decline" narratives (which both pro-West and pro-Russia people traffic in against each other) is that they're really talking about the state of a country in 2050 or 2070 and not right now. Geopolitics is like a modern form of alchemy like that. Russia could still muddle through for decades and could get into more wars, there's plenty of that in Russian history.
There's also plenty of examples in history when poorer peoples have overrun and destroyed wealthier neighbors. There's also plenty of nations and empires that have risen and fallen, got conquered (several times), and then rose up again. It'd be alarming if Russia never declined. But in conclusion: NATO countries need to stop fricking around and raise their defense budgets.
This is a very low-information view of the geopolitics involved, basically a more adult version of “Monke chimping out”.
Russia needs to secure the pipelines to Europe, almost all of which is controlled by Ukraine. The US partnered with Ukraine a decade ago to develop their newly discovered shale reserves thus allowing for the cutting off of Russian energy to Europe AND the replacement of cheap Russian energy with cheap Ukranian energy. Cutting Russia off from Europe’s energy market is the US’s primary European foreign policy goal. In the early 10s it was an economic and political battle, but, Putin was defeated politically and because Ukraine was signing major development deals with Shell and Chevron, Russia invaded a few months later in 2014. The purpose of 2014 was to kill those deals, which worked because no oil company is going to operate near a warzone. Putin escalated the conflict to a military one, something the Obama admin wasn’t prepared for, but the project wasn’t dead and the US continued to fight against Nordstream which was Russia’s insurance policy against getting cut off from Europe. In late 2021 the US hit Nordstream with sanctions and making it clear Russia wasn’t going to get to keep it — probably pressuring Putin to finally try a regime change a few months later. As long as Ukraine is partnered with the US it’s an existential threat to Putin’s government and Russia’s economy as a whole.
Didn't Putin literally cut off Tucker and spend 2 hours screeching about Poles and how Ukraine doesn't actually exist and is a Polish psyop and that's why he invaded? I sincerely doubt he cares about money; especially given the massive economic damage he's doing to the nation with this war.

Even then, didn't he also frick that up with the war; by having all their assets frozen overseas and ensuring they never get a dime from half the western world?
At some point the west is going to have to respond to zigger barbarism with some barbarism of its own. Expelling populations and reclaiming land the ziglets stole less than a century ago is very much an appropriate response to monke's chimpout logic of wanting land his propgandists claim was russian a thousand years ago.
The trouble is that not even the Russians want Kaliningrad, with the only thing keep them there is the missile silos.
It's a countrywide ghetto from the nastiest part of a bad town. The only thing your getting from claiming that territory is an AIDs epidemic and a 20% of the GDP going to welfare payments.

This is no longer tank as it is no better armored than most IFV's.
It is also inferior to most IFV's in it's ability to detect and engage targets.
True. But again. Russia can send literal thousands of shit tanks to Ukraine, while Ukraine has to defend itself from them with like ~200 superior vehicles, stretched across the entire long ass front. Thank God Ukies got real fricking good at those FPV drones.
Real life isn't war thunder where you have leo2 stukc in some crater on ukrainian side and 1000's of t54's surrounding it aiming for it's weak points.
Tank isn't a top b***h unless it is used well in full combined arms and has every support imaginable. Ever since the inception of it we've been working really hard to destroy it.
the vatnik is actually somewhat right. a tank is a tank to the russian brass because everyone in the first wave is cannon fodder anyway, they dont give a frick what they send their meatbags in as long as they absorb the ATGMs and artillery that they're supposed to. >you will all die and it will be good
We spent less of our military budget as a percentage than Russia has spent a percentage of their able male population.
The strongest bastion of Slavdom is getting ground into ash by a footer on our white paper.
My point is that Ukraine is running out of supplies. Something that they readily admit. And it's something that the west should address sometime around this fricking decade, hopefully. Again, admitting bad news isn't vatBlack personism.
Laugh all you want, but a dogshit t54 can and will endure AK fire, along with rocks being thrown at it. Europe still didn't deliver those arty shells they promised. Even though if they put in some elbow grease they'd outperform Russia and all xir's allies combined, they still schedule meetings and talking events. This shit is unacceptable.
That Budapest Memorandum sure doesn't seem like it's being honored. Maybe it's finally fricking time to change that.
Then I agree, Russia should honour the terms of the Budapest memorandum and immediately withdraw all of its forces from within Ukraine's internationally recognised borders
>Something that they readily admit
Ukies will (and should) always say they're about to run out, regardless of the reality of things. All meaningful communication on this subject happens behind closed doors, everything in the news is just public relations to keep support from drying up.
I'm not saying they're not getting low on certain critical supplies, just that what people say is meaningless.
>the money has run out
we disposed of a bunch of stocks of weapons largely unusable to us, the value of which isn't even 5% of our budget. there's quite a lot of money. the problem is a little weasel in the house of representatives who wants to blueball our TZD
And old shit counted as priced new, at that. Now if that isn't the most jooish trickery in the book, I don't know what to say. Maybe counting it as priced new inflation adjusted.
A single person sitting in trenches in the first/second line can totally have a general idea how shit works in their area of operations. But that's not how said "source" was used in those videos and you know it. Getting concussed by artillery pounding your positions does no infer insights into big scale picture of why and hows of weapons usage. There is an assload of people better informed on such topics you can quote, that could provide a deeper insight into them that aren't a constant rehash of "tank is better than no tank" or "gun kills people".
If you want to listen to POG “experts” to reinforce your preconceived notions of reality then just stay here. Otherwise you’re effectively just engaging in “let me tell you what is actually happening” to the people living it every day.
NTA, but I'm going to level with you here buddy. Unless it's barebones reporting on the events on the ground that happened to that specific guy, then PFC Dipshit McSpaz will almost never give an accurate assessment of current happenings outside his very specific ring of competence.
I can see how an upgraded M-55S can help Ukraine.
But an rusty museum piece of an T-54 with a gazeboo is nothing but a deathtrap for an unfortunate crew.
Trying to spin this in a "win" for russia is just sad.
They are used to it, they lost more in single battles of WW2, like Uman, Brody, Minsk, Smolenkst, Kiev, etc. Monke can throw another twenty million pidors into the meatgrinder before pidors start grumbling.
That's when there was a Soviet Union and plenty of chumps to throw around. Now they have soviet union surplus and lack of modern equipment/means to manufacturer it. It's a war of attrition at this point. Ukraine is constantly being resupplied and armed by different countries while Russia is forced to pay shit holes for unreliable shells and weapons that they sold decades ago.
They have plenty of Uzbeks, Tartars and Khazaks, to throw at it. Even if means arming them with Turan II single shot rifles or slamfire shotguns. In terms of cost/benefit, a single 155mm shell/TOW II/Cluster bomb/HIMARS rocket/etc is probably worth more per unit than a whole company of steppemonkeys. If Ukraine really wants to win a war of attrition, they better ramp up their campaign against Pidorland's infrastructure. Particularly power grids, heating stations and fuel depots so pidors freeze to death.

>Western officials told the outlet that Russia is on track to manufacture two million artillery shells a year, which is twice as many as Western intelligence originally estimated it could make before the war. Russia, in fact, is now producing more ammunition than the US and Europe, with one senior Estonian defense ministry official telling The Times that Russia's current production is seven times that of the West.
Source: NYT, can't post the link due to spam filter but you can easily find it. It's widely discussed and acknowledged.
the constant seething—worse than when they lost their recent batch of ships—over this "victory" doesn't indicate they really believe that much themselves.
Because despite the memes of /k/, having a tank is better than not having a tank. Choice between 50 guys and a tank versus 75 guys and nothing, most commanders will choose the first option. Ukraine didn't have Soviet stockpiles to dig into. Russia does.
the west should have never scrapped their cold war stuff, that being said t55s should be used in indirect fire to take strain off of artillery shell logistics not in a frontal assault. The Americans had all the stuff Ukraine needs but scrapped it for no reason.
as funny that would be, I doubt even the most die hard mobik or out of touch officer would ever accept being forced to use those, because by that point you wouldn't even need drone to deal with them just some very very basic rockets
while monke is an irrational actor, he isn't moronic enough to resort to nooks beyond he is surroned by an invading army in moscow, and even then its more likely a few of the other higher ups would have already made a deal to prevent a nook scenario in exchange for immunity and would prevent monke from doing it

You are implying the generic russian will understand something it is older tank. Or do you think they can tell the diference betwen a t55 and a T64?

yes not being a slave is a mental hilliness in russia
I'd rather take my chances in the field than in a Russian prison.
What weapon is being used at 00:17-00:18?
autocannon
How many trenches and tree lines did the Ukies lose again today?
Well zero. This was at Robotnye where Russians fled after the first wave
This cannot be, I was ensured by reliable sources Robotyne will be cauldroned in the next 2 weeks
Looks like it was killed by an ATGM. Waste of a perfectly good missile.
You can laugh all you want but they grind forward and Ukraine can't stop them.
ok, another small town by 2026 then?
They will legitimately run out men by then kek.
They'll eventually become combat ineffective it's only a matter of time.
Did you miss the webm?
Doesn't it bother you that Russian blood, is practically worthless, and they are sent out there to die, so israelitetin can have another banan?
>this is what has been pushing NATOs shit in

When the time comes for NATO to actually start fighting the Russians, the cope you guys are going to post is going to be glorious.
I saw this thing in a coal mine museum in Poland. Wild.
museum is a bit too much credit for what is a medium size parking lot with soviet junk, that is not even properly described
Soul
not that one
Wow terrible parking
It's actually incredibly good parking because they had to fit the tank through this hole.
That hole was made for me.
t. tank
"OH YEAH!"
>T-34
GIVE IT TO ME!
You know I kinda wish Ukraine activated their t-55s except they gave them new stabilized lightweight turrets with L7s or something. Surely tearing down old t-55s and building them up again to be light 105mm tanks isn't a difficult task with all of Europe's help. You could really improve things well beyond the M-55s.
As cool as that would be the T-55 well and truly becoming a collectors item in Europe.
A very optimistic assessment considering you're basing this on a fall of a Donetsk suburb that's been inside a salient for 2 years.
I don't think it's in a sorry state at all. They've been and still are holding back the second army of the world aren't they?
Do you mean we should send more weapons? I will write my representatives thank you anon
Feel free to do so. I will laugh when they respond with a resounding "nah, lol!"
I am john denver from appalacia and am now demoralized
Don't be a gay. Admission of bad news isn't vatBlack personism.
Ukraine is not fighting Russia. Ukraine is fighting Russia AND their soviet stockpiles AND Iranian stockpiles AND Nork stockpiles AND China's stockpiles. All while the West finally supplied GLSDBs, a fricking year after they were promised. Europe is ramping up it's production of 155mm shells. For the tenth fricking time this year. Results inconclusive. F16s totally didn't get delayed again. Who knows, maybe Ukraine will get an extra LeoA1 this year! Avdiivka wouldn't have fallen if Ukies literally didn't run out of ammo.
I am demoralized not by mongolpidor shills, but by the unbelievable moronation of the west. If Puccia didn't act on bad intel and instead properly prepared for the initial invasion, we'd probably not be here, shitposting. We'd be conscripted to fight near Warsaw or even Berlin, if this is the speed of western support.
Ukies still have plenty of fight left in them, especially with the ramped up native drone production which makes those Txx tanks look a lot less scary. But this shit is abysmal. Ukies should be expanding to Sochi and Bilgorod, not penny pinching arty shells.
NATO as a whole has done the bare minimum. It took 18 months to get 300 IFVs and a paltry number of tanks.
There should have been 1000 Bradleys, 500 tanks and SOF/glowBlack person black ops running around Donbabwe assassinating Russian officers and blowing up supply depots.
Why do people assume that NORK and Iran have unlimited supplies? How many Iranian or NORK products do you have at home?
Anon, the point is that those countries are autocracies. They can order their slave cattle to do whatever the ruling cast wants. Like spam arty shells and drones. The quality may be shit. Real fricking shit. But, again, Russia has them and Ukraine does not. While their supplies aren't unlimited, they still have plenty. And they don't need to adhere to anything resembling western standards of quality, so the cost/benefit is very high in their favor. Think 100 western pristine high-quality shells to 10k dogshit nork shells. Even if more than half are filled with literal dog turds, that's still quite the numerical advantage.
Yeah, if you have the AT4 and didn't run out months ago. And that, not very impressive by modern standards, oldass 100mm cannon can still do plenty of damage. $499.99 Ukie drones will smoke them ezpz, but if they even get one shot off in Ukies general direction it's already favorable to Puccia.
>but if they even get one shot off in Ukies general direction it's already favorable to Puccia.
I love how worthless Russian lives are.
>An old tank+shells+maintenance+crew members=one(1) shot towards the enemy in value
Any sapient race would overthrow their leaders in seconds if you told them that about an offensive war far away from them.
>Yeah, if you have the AT4 and didn't run out months ago
A T-55 is at genuine risk from getting penned through the front hull by fricking modern 40mm APFDS
If you have anything even resembling an anti-tank weapon it's a goner, old RPGs or LAWs will go straight through the turret from the front.
>Yeah, if you have the AT4 and didn't run out months ago

You are acting like it isn’t the USA plans all along to extend this war for as long as possible because every month it goes on is a weaker Russia. Once we realized the hilarity of russias army in Feb 22 they decided to see how far they would go. Now we have half a million dead, Black Sea fleet destroyed, all the new tanks and planes verified memes, etc.
unfortunately Ukraine is the victim here.
Oh I'm sure that's their plan. Now as an American, I have a healthy distrust of our intelligence services, but I think even I can give them the benefit of the doubt in assuming that not even they ever thought Russia would commit THIS heavily. Yeah they were the ones originally saying Russia would invade, but I bet that the original prediction was Russia would have given up MUCH sooner. And the fact that they haven't is absolutely moronic on their part as every month under sanctions equals several months, potentially years, of being sanction-free to hope to undo the damage that month of sanctions did.
Russia is literally bleeding themselves dry by continuing the invasion. Their original goals of the war are completely and 100% unattainable now, and even if they could magically teleport 100 T-14's into Kyiv and execute Zelensky on live television, they will STILL have lost because they've burned through so much irreplaceable military equipment, and most importantly of all, trust. You think the West is going to reinvest into Russia after pulling out or that smart foreign born people will want to ever move to Russia? Frick no, not unless there's huge changes in Russia's political class. We tried to reintegrate Russia into the world after the collapse of the USSR in the hopes that they could become a normal country and we've given them so many chances to just, act fricking normal.
Tldr but yeah what the absolute frick will taking Ukraine do for them now? Congrats they have a single country except now they're more isolated than best korea.
>it isn’t the USA plans all
>TRUST THE PLAN!
as soon as you stop coping about the indecisive homosexuals in charge not knowing what they are doing the sooner you can realize the geriatic le escalation meme is playing straight into the snow monkeys hands. This war could have been snuffed out in ukraine, now its going to spread by getting belarus occupied and balts under attack in the coming years. This is growing into a regional war guaranteed while the senile morons still kvech their ass if hitting sams, radars and airfields inside russhitia is going to get the NOOK-OOKed
This. The weapon trickle into Ukraine already cause so much damage to the war effort, it's almost like moronic sabotage. But that's just not enough, they are actively showing Russians that they're terrified of nukes and still don't allow Ukraine to fully fight back.
What morons here don't realize is that if Russia attacks NATO, they can still hide behind "muh nooks". The best outcome is that NATO trashes the invading army, but they sure as frick will not invade Russian territory. They will be too terrified to do that, and it's exactly the message they are sending at the moment.
Why would Russians not try their luck? At worst they lose worthless men and equipment.
> if Russia attacks NATO, they can still hide behind "muh nooks"
They won't, because NATO can pull the same card.
You're giving the US government waaaaaaaaaaaay more credit than it deserves, expecting them to have a long-term strategic plan. They're acting out of a desire to placate the military and intelligence agencies (who want russia wiped off the map), the domestic voter base (who want nothing to do with foreign wars), and congress (who want no money to ever be spent on anything, nor the illusion of money being spent i.e. sending old stockpiles), and the way they do this is by picking a nonworkable middle ground that pleases no one and accomplishes nothing.
The way we solve this problem is for voters and congress to demand decisive action, not by pretending everything is fine.
>You are acting like it isn’t the USA plans all along to extend this war for as long as possible because every month it goes on is a weaker Russia.
I think Russia is a thuggish, self-interested banana republic in decline. When you have to escalate your commitment to retain your position you're in long-term decline. But the problem with "[nation] is in decline" narratives (which both pro-West and pro-Russia people traffic in against each other) is that they're really talking about the state of a country in 2050 or 2070 and not right now. Geopolitics is like a modern form of alchemy like that. Russia could still muddle through for decades and could get into more wars, there's plenty of that in Russian history.
There's also plenty of examples in history when poorer peoples have overrun and destroyed wealthier neighbors. There's also plenty of nations and empires that have risen and fallen, got conquered (several times), and then rose up again. It'd be alarming if Russia never declined. But in conclusion: NATO countries need to stop fricking around and raise their defense budgets.
This is a very low-information view of the geopolitics involved, basically a more adult version of “Monke chimping out”.
Russia needs to secure the pipelines to Europe, almost all of which is controlled by Ukraine. The US partnered with Ukraine a decade ago to develop their newly discovered shale reserves thus allowing for the cutting off of Russian energy to Europe AND the replacement of cheap Russian energy with cheap Ukranian energy. Cutting Russia off from Europe’s energy market is the US’s primary European foreign policy goal. In the early 10s it was an economic and political battle, but, Putin was defeated politically and because Ukraine was signing major development deals with Shell and Chevron, Russia invaded a few months later in 2014. The purpose of 2014 was to kill those deals, which worked because no oil company is going to operate near a warzone. Putin escalated the conflict to a military one, something the Obama admin wasn’t prepared for, but the project wasn’t dead and the US continued to fight against Nordstream which was Russia’s insurance policy against getting cut off from Europe. In late 2021 the US hit Nordstream with sanctions and making it clear Russia wasn’t going to get to keep it — probably pressuring Putin to finally try a regime change a few months later. As long as Ukraine is partnered with the US it’s an existential threat to Putin’s government and Russia’s economy as a whole.
Economics-sperg, you do realize there's much more behind every conflict than money and resources, right?
Didn't Putin literally cut off Tucker and spend 2 hours screeching about Poles and how Ukraine doesn't actually exist and is a Polish psyop and that's why he invaded? I sincerely doubt he cares about money; especially given the massive economic damage he's doing to the nation with this war.
Anon, of course he cares about money. He cares about making sure it goes to the oligarchs who keep in him power. The average russian citizen is the one paying for this war in treasure and dead relatives, not Putin and his allies at the top of Russian society.
Even then, didn't he also frick that up with the war; by having all their assets frozen overseas and ensuring they never get a dime from half the western world?
YES

Every time.
Russia depleted everything it would be a good opportunity for Germany to liberate Konigsberg.
Germans don't want it, Czechs do.
None wants it. It's filled with russians.
At some point the west is going to have to respond to zigger barbarism with some barbarism of its own. Expelling populations and reclaiming land the ziglets stole less than a century ago is very much an appropriate response to monke's chimpout logic of wanting land his propgandists claim was russian a thousand years ago.
The trouble is that not even the Russians want Kaliningrad, with the only thing keep them there is the missile silos.
It's a countrywide ghetto from the nastiest part of a bad town. The only thing your getting from claiming that territory is an AIDs epidemic and a 20% of the GDP going to welfare payments.
you only have those problems if you refuse to exterminate your pest problem
Anon you can defeat this tank from any angle with an AT4. It's paper.
>Tank is a tank
Ask the Iraqi tankers how that went for them.
True. But again. Russia can send literal thousands of shit tanks to Ukraine, while Ukraine has to defend itself from them with like ~200 superior vehicles, stretched across the entire long ass front. Thank God Ukies got real fricking good at those FPV drones.
Real life isn't war thunder where you have leo2 stukc in some crater on ukrainian side and 1000's of t54's surrounding it aiming for it's weak points.
Tank isn't a top b***h unless it is used well in full combined arms and has every support imaginable. Ever since the inception of it we've been working really hard to destroy it.
For a year or two more at current loss rates mate. count em from space.
>Budapest Memorandum

>The Russian envy of the Bongs has caused them to launch a 115 Year-Long War just to take the title of longest war from them out of spite
This is no longer tank as it is no better armored than most IFV's.
It is also inferior to most IFV's in it's ability to detect and engage targets.
they've still got several dozen towns to go anon
>Russia can’t win against America’s couch cushion money
Absolutely pathetic.
the vatnik is actually somewhat right. a tank is a tank to the russian brass because everyone in the first wave is cannon fodder anyway, they dont give a frick what they send their meatbags in as long as they absorb the ATGMs and artillery that they're supposed to.
>you will all die and it will be good
At that point , why you shouldn't simply put brick on the gas and launch without crew?
crew is cheaper than brick, comrade
It’s not a T-55. It’s a T-54-3, there isn’t a bore evacuator.
Is that better or worse than a stock T-55?
Worse.
Worse. It's the 1951 model that doesn't even have a fully stabilized gun that can be penetrated by RPG-7s.

>NOOOOOOO those ships were old and they didn’t need them!!!
My point is that Ukraine is running out of supplies. Something that they readily admit. And it's something that the west should address sometime around this fricking decade, hopefully. Again, admitting bad news isn't vatBlack personism.
Laugh all you want, but a dogshit t54 can and will endure AK fire, along with rocks being thrown at it. Europe still didn't deliver those arty shells they promised. Even though if they put in some elbow grease they'd outperform Russia and all xir's allies combined, they still schedule meetings and talking events. This shit is unacceptable.
That Budapest Memorandum sure doesn't seem like it's being honored. Maybe it's finally fricking time to change that.
>but a dogshit t54 can and will endure AK fire, along with rocks being thrown at it
They're not dirkas or african eek-ooks. Keep fantasizing, Ivan.
>That Budapest Memorandum
Is that the one where Ukraine agreed to give up its nukes in exchange for a promise that Russia would never invade them?
Precisely. Renewed in 2009.
Then I agree, Russia should honour the terms of the Budapest memorandum and immediately withdraw all of its forces from within Ukraine's internationally recognised borders
>Something that they readily admit
Ukies will (and should) always say they're about to run out, regardless of the reality of things. All meaningful communication on this subject happens behind closed doors, everything in the news is just public relations to keep support from drying up.
I'm not saying they're not getting low on certain critical supplies, just that what people say is meaningless.
ASU-57 boyz we back
>the money has run out
we disposed of a bunch of stocks of weapons largely unusable to us, the value of which isn't even 5% of our budget. there's quite a lot of money. the problem is a little weasel in the house of representatives who wants to blueball our TZD
Lol it is 0.03% of one year of GDP so far used to give Ukies our old shit and we get the $$ to replace it with modernized stuff.
And old shit counted as priced new, at that. Now if that isn't the most jooish trickery in the book, I don't know what to say. Maybe counting it as priced new inflation adjusted.
cant wait for another cope video from MHV, where he one again quotes some boots on the ground goon as some sort of an expert on everything ever.
Yeah I bet the guys who are actually fighting have no idea what they’re talking about
A single person sitting in trenches in the first/second line can totally have a general idea how shit works in their area of operations. But that's not how said "source" was used in those videos and you know it. Getting concussed by artillery pounding your positions does no infer insights into big scale picture of why and hows of weapons usage. There is an assload of people better informed on such topics you can quote, that could provide a deeper insight into them that aren't a constant rehash of "tank is better than no tank" or "gun kills people".
If you want to listen to POG “experts” to reinforce your preconceived notions of reality then just stay here. Otherwise you’re effectively just engaging in “let me tell you what is actually happening” to the people living it every day.
NTA, but I'm going to level with you here buddy. Unless it's barebones reporting on the events on the ground that happened to that specific guy, then PFC Dipshit McSpaz will almost never give an accurate assessment of current happenings outside his very specific ring of competence.
That's not even couch cushion money, that's straight up saving money by getting rid of old surplus without having to pay for disposal.
It was more of a "holy shit that's hilarious" image, but I can see how that could be unclear
I can see how an upgraded M-55S can help Ukraine.
But an rusty museum piece of an T-54 with a gazeboo is nothing but a deathtrap for an unfortunate crew.
Trying to spin this in a "win" for russia is just sad.
>Now the rest will fall much quicker thanks to congress
Did they just approve a new package?
>But weapons won't fix the main problem which is a very low quality of the mobilized troops.
but enough about russia
Please don't talk about Avdiivka, it makes Murz upset.
Now imagine what Ukies could do with some actual fricking big boy toys in their hands.
>Russia lost nearly as many people in about 5 months of a single battle as the US lost in about 20 years of Vietnam
Winning*
They are used to it, they lost more in single battles of WW2, like Uman, Brody, Minsk, Smolenkst, Kiev, etc. Monke can throw another twenty million pidors into the meatgrinder before pidors start grumbling.
That's when there was a Soviet Union and plenty of chumps to throw around. Now they have soviet union surplus and lack of modern equipment/means to manufacturer it. It's a war of attrition at this point. Ukraine is constantly being resupplied and armed by different countries while Russia is forced to pay shit holes for unreliable shells and weapons that they sold decades ago.
They have plenty of Uzbeks, Tartars and Khazaks, to throw at it. Even if means arming them with Turan II single shot rifles or slamfire shotguns. In terms of cost/benefit, a single 155mm shell/TOW II/Cluster bomb/HIMARS rocket/etc is probably worth more per unit than a whole company of steppemonkeys. If Ukraine really wants to win a war of attrition, they better ramp up their campaign against Pidorland's infrastructure. Particularly power grids, heating stations and fuel depots so pidors freeze to death.
Well, you're already seeing that now with something going up in smoke up Pidorstan way at least once every day or two
That Wildberries building certainly didn't go up in flames all by itself.
is this another new smoker incident
Wildberries one is from last year
It was from last month.
It needs to ramp up. Until we don't see mass common graves outside Moscow due to mass starvation and widespread pneumonia it won't be enough.

>Western officials told the outlet that Russia is on track to manufacture two million artillery shells a year, which is twice as many as Western intelligence originally estimated it could make before the war. Russia, in fact, is now producing more ammunition than the US and Europe, with one senior Estonian defense ministry official telling The Times that Russia's current production is seven times that of the West.

Because despite the memes of /k/, having a tank is better than not having a tank. Choice between 50 guys and a tank versus 75 guys and nothing, most commanders will choose the first option. Ukraine didn't have Soviet stockpiles to dig into. Russia does.

the west should have never scrapped their cold war stuff, that being said t55s should be used in indirect fire to take strain off of artillery shell logistics not in a frontal assault. The Americans had all the stuff Ukraine needs but scrapped it for no reason.
Travesty dumped em for coral reefs.. Hope most got to be spare parts.
What are scrapped western cold war weapons that would be useful in Ukraine? Might make a thread later.
Wow did they really go to war with atlantis

as funny that would be, I doubt even the most die hard mobik or out of touch officer would ever accept being forced to use those, because by that point you wouldn't even need drone to deal with them just some very very basic rockets

while monke is an irrational actor, he isn't moronic enough to resort to nooks beyond he is surroned by an invading army in moscow, and even then its more likely a few of the other higher ups would have already made a deal to prevent a nook scenario in exchange for immunity and would prevent monke from doing it
