You don't need to reload them if you don't shoot them, and you don't shoot them unless enemy air forces are over Russia, and why would you worry about something that's never going to happen?
Soviets were a huge fags of airlift helis. They just keep doing the same. >Comarade Sergei, the heli looks ok but can you make it 3 times larger? I would like to move my yatches to Odessa
>US: make it, now make it smarter, more reliable >EU: make it, now make it smarter, dubble labor costs >China: copy it, now make it cheaper, smaller, smarter >Russia: we made it bigger, it cheaper, smarter, more reliable and 100x better in every way possible, trust me comrade
wondering if it could be a decoy because of that
sure they could airlift it, but it has no way to retreat anywhere and is sitting there out in the open like HEY DRONE/HIMARS/SCALP/WHOEVER PLEASE HIT ME and getting a couple of painted tubes and wooden plates up there seems much easier
Conversely, it's in a very visible position and obviously can't drive off while you're doing recon to figure out if it's real or not, so it's not a very effective decoy assuming that the people shooting at you have even half a brain and aren't panic firing missiles.
Probably still useful for giving the thing's radar a little bit longer range and it still gives it the ability to see past single and double floor buildings. A competent force could actually do this successfully. C-RAM on a tower like that could be nasty. Since it's manned by Russians I expect a drone to fly right up to it and casually drop a grenade on it.
Hoe do you reload these things?

Duh
glad that's not my problem.
is this a purpose built structure? very strange, if so.
This
plus privates
>30 ton vehicle on top of a tower
>”Haha, there’s no way they could transport half a ton of ammo up there!”
Let me guess…public school graduate?
>moving, building, and aligning a crane for every reload
how about no?
black magic
By the crane.
>flak tower at home
I guess hauling a full reload of missiles + a couple thousand rounds of 30mm up there is still preferable to getting sent to the frontlines.
How did they get 30t vehicle up there? cranes can carry that kind of weight? Impressive
did you not see the stairs?

They used 15 Mi-8 helicopters with cables. Kinda like in Pacific Rim.

if they're going through the trouble of building a structure for it, why not use naval CWIS and hook it up to grid power (with generator backup)
This.

I bet they will still say a driver was assigned to it and pocket the money.
Flakturm were supposed to get the AA above the city, this is in a field. what's the point?
Radar see more when higher off ground thus build tower because russia very flat understand

You don't see the buildings, billboard and gas station around it?
