Like, do you just give a handful of shrapnel to your commanding officer as proof of destroying the rocket?
Or do you work out the number or rockets fired at you, count the new shell holes around you and if there's less holes than rockets fired, you get paid for it as long as you fired your gun into the air during the barrage?
>you get paid for it as long as you fired your gun into the air during the barrage?
Likely this.
But you probably have to be buttbuddies with the person in charge so he doesn't call you out on your bullshit.
There was a recent interview with a heli pilot defector on BBC. He told it was common practice to 5x or whatever the same target in reports to get the cash flowing.
If you split the cash between you and the commanding officer, couldn't you both just rake in about a couple of hundred thousand each after each time your shelled though?
That sounds like a pretty sweet deal.
>If you split the cash between you and the commanding officer, couldn't you both just rake in about a couple of hundred thousand each after each time your shelled though?
For a bit but if you do it too much then you'd have to cut in the guy above him too. You'd have diminishing rewards.
It's just corruption from bottom to top.
You show engagement logs recorded at SAM control station.
Would they show if they successfully hit the rocket, or just that it was fired at a confirmed target?
Single track broke into several, tracks, changed course and speed. Sometimes you can't tell by track info target was clearly BTFO, sometimes you don't.
>MLRS worth 50,000
>MLRS rocket worth 50,000
That's only for a lowly GRAD. For a HIMARS, you get 300,000.
Still weird how a PzH 2000 or a Caesar is only worth 50,000 though. It's hardly worth the effort to try and take them down.
>having to even float the idea of bribing your soldiers to do their job of destroying the enemy
I don't get how the ruble has survived. You'd think inflation would be going crazy in Russia with all the expense of the war combined with sanctions. Yet the ruble has barely lost ground (only 5% lower than the Pound over 5 years, 7% on the Euro)
Lots and lots of frickery and cooked books eg you can’t actually exchange rubles for euros or dollars, locked unfavorable gold/ruble exchange rates, and tremendous pressure by things like outright nationalization or one time “oligarch tax” for the war. Failing that, they just straight up lie. Do you believe chinese economic stats?
you can't trade rubles for anything legitimate anymore, so it's value on the black/ open market is far lower than official exchange rates, which are a representation of what it *would* be worth if it were actually tradeable, the spike after the dip was direct value manipulation by putin, and at this point their industry are operating at their pathetic equivalent of maximum production, so the money floats as fiat during wartime
Makes it annoying buying Zenitco shit from Russia since the people who still ship absolutely charge the posted rate.
yeah zenitco is a fricking racket right now, it's so bad brownells started making clones KEK. i honestly don't like the pt-5 stock though as cool as it looks- it folds the wrong way to be slung in front of you, and the screws they ship it with are aluminum or some equally insufficient pot metal.

The Russian Central Bank is where the 10 people in that whole country who aren't massive morons work. The measures they took to keep the economy semi-afloat are impressive.
The one notable thing is that keeping the ruble looking strong is a vanity project to try and show the West that "sAnCtIoNs aReN't wOrKiNg", thus they're willfully mortgaging Russia's economic future via debt and heavily discounted oil sales to keep that afloat (pajeets and changs aren't running a charity and are demanding lowballs for Russian oil).
So they claim 300k ruble bounty for destroying himars and there's 15 that's been destroyed? Hmm
I wonder who received the payouts.
Maybe they should upgrade their image satellites and general camera quality before putting a bounty system in place for visual confirmation?
Probably you film yourself doing it, like those guys that tried and failed to shoot down the storm shadow
Which begs the question of whether getting a camera to record your work would decrease your response time.
