What are you supposed to do if you have to cross a river but the enemy has artillery dialed in on every place where you can embark or build a pontoon bridge?
Asking for a friend.

Asking for a friend.
> Asking for a friend.
He wouldn't understand.
You either get rid of the artillery or you don't cross the river.
Pray to god for forgiveness, because yo' ass is gonna meeting him soon.
>Just cross comrade. What? Me? Oh no I’m not coming with you.
You asking for him?
Why is he showing his face like this? Almost seems like some bad comedy skit...
he just had something extremely loud explode or go off next to him, that kind of event is painful and disorienting
He's shellshocked, his chest feels like he got drop kicked and all he hears is EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH
Judging from the blood leaking out his nose a serious TBI is not out of the question either.
What a frickin pussy that shit wouldn't phase me
>Internet tough guy
Then go there, no balls having b***h.
I already did I killed 6 russians
Big if true
Good shit, I was fricking your mom while you were at it
Those russian hookers you murdered don't count anon.
Yea they do. He's improving the world one hooker at a time.
That said I hope he was really careful during the deed and the cleanup- you don't want HIV+ blood all over you.
He just had his eardrums exploded, so he probably feels like someone shoved a sledgehammer into his sinus cavity. That sort of open mouthed fish gasp is a fairly automatic response to try to relieve what feels like an insane amount of pressure in your skull.
His eardrum popped.
>when you nutted but she keeps sucking
True
can someone post the video please, i missed it
I got one from /misc/ at their /UHG/
Nice dead/not archived link, moron.
Wait, why didn't I just post the link instead kek

So what do you think happened to him? Just eardrum and surprise or something more serious like fracture or shrapnel?
I enjoy dunking on the Russians as much as the next guy but won't the Ukrainians have the same problem if they successfully push the Russians out of Kherson?
Yes, but Ukraine also has better range and accuracy for fire support. Easier to set up a bridge head if you blow everything up trying to intercept it
No, because they can advance south from Zaporizhzhia.
they'll just cross the river to the north, and walk from there to the south? the russian forces are effectively stranded there on an island: surrounded by the enemy on the front, surrounded with the river in the rear
ukraine has bridges across the dniepr farther north. how do you think the ukrainians are moving the nato supplies from poland to the donbas front?
the ukies can cross into ukie controlled territory across the dnipro river
I still don't fully understand how they manage that, but ukes did so many successful pontooning in this war that no one even pays attention to them anymore.
I think you got your answer already, Ukes could but they're being justifiably cautious
>get grievously wounded
>film yourself making silly faces

it proves the worth of having as much of your army amphibious as possible. I'm surprised by how non-amphibious the Russians are, huge weakness
They're not capable of complex air operations with the air force, which is an even more basic pre-requesite than amphibious ops. Russia "should" have had air superiority in the first week given the size of their air force. If they could SEAD then these bridges wouldn't be an issue
Whoosh. Missed the most important take away from this war. This is why people think you guys are stupid. (Don’t feel too bad, the guy whose responsibility it is to tell everyone has been screaming about it since 1992 and nobody listened to him)
most of their shit is designed to be amphibious
Unfortunately for them it was designed to be amphibious by Russians
The problem is that it was maintained by Russians, not necessarily that they designed it.
You can make a breaktrough force amphibious, but supply trucks won't work like that.
Plus you could traverse smaller rivers, but there's no fricking way you'll be swiming something like Dnipro on a fricking APC, especially if it is contested.
dnipro's are rare though, small creeks are common. someone should design amphibious supply trucks too
You typically would an Air Assualt, Airborne drop, or Air Superiority to neutralize the artillery then cross the bridge, but I'm guessing your friend doesn't have any of that?
Use Airborne ISR, Counter Battery Radar, Recon units with amphibious vehicles to locate the enemy artillery, then use your own artillery and air assets to suppress enemy fire on the crossing, then cross in force and secure a large enough perimeter around the bridgehead that the enemy can no longer put accurate fire on it.
Bomb the enemy artillery with his modern attack aircraft and drones. He does have air superiority, doesn’t he? It be pretty stupid for your friend to get into a situation where he doesn’t have air superiority.
build a gap generator
if russian: desert
if ukrainian: go get some dessert while arty/drones/airforce removes hostile arty positions
Well, if you're a superpower invading a minor former vassal on your doorstep, your overwhelming air superiority should be able to destroy those artillery pieces.
Putin can't afford wartime sortie numbers
What superpower?
Use amphibious vehicles?
You need to make some strong accelerant fuel, it's the only way to actually get across fast enough.
Keep in mind, this is a well guarded NATO secret, it's how they got their jets to go fast enough to overwhelm the Iraqi forces in the onset of Desert Storm.
What you need to do is mix it 50-50 with whatever fuel source you intend to use it on, any will do.
To make it, you'll first need 1 part ammonia and one part bleach, then, in an airtight room, mix the two.
You cannot use any protective gear though, to tell if the solution is properly mixed you'll need to be able to smell it.
Then once the room starts to smell like alcohol, pour it into the fuel you wish to use it on, then use said fuel.
I wont be able to respond to any further questions, I need to reposition, the CIA has no doubt already deployed killsquads to get rid of me as I type this.
Slava Z!
Not gonna do your homework for you, Shoigu
You could try going back to your own country.
>you see Ivan
>they can't of blowing up pontoon
>if made from ERA bricks
Nice try, Shoigu.
Arent BMPs and BTRs amphibious?
as for the tanks...idk.... get a bigger snorkel lmao
It takes time to prep them for amphibious crossings, and I remember hearing that a lot of the Russian BMP's and shit have too many after-market modifications to still retain their amphibious capabilities. By this point, even if they tried to cross the river amphibiously, all it takes is to wait until a certain amount get on the opposite side and barrage the shit out of those guys & the ones crossing.
Seriously, artillery is just that strong. It always has been. The only counter to artillery up to the past 100 years was other artillery, and now aircraft. But since Russia failed to neutralize the Ukrainian air defense, let alone the air force AND the Ukrainian artillery outranges the Russian ones, they have no way to target them.
You make fake poontooning in one spot to attract enemy fire, and in another couple of locations you set up a poontoon, at night, that is about 30cm below water level.
Back in the day it worked
Russians have no need for such ISIS-American tactics.
You don't. Ideally you should have planes parachuting guys in but russian cant into air-superiority
keep trying, eventually you'll have enough corpses and tanks in the water to build a natural bridge.
Drive faster
Is it normal to use boats like this to keep your pontoon bridge in place?
dig a tunnel under the river
Send the VEH DEH VEH to take out all artillery that threatens your crossing point.
Man if only they had some kind of elite, hard-boiled, veteran type of shock troop that could deploy behind enemy lines quickly with self-sufficiency and disrupt those pesky artillery guns that keep blowing up all of their ammo/fuel depots.
>yfw it's the VDV
Use paddle boats, have arty/tanks bombard the other side, if there isn't enough oars use your rifles to paddle, if you get scared as you say Hail Mary full of Grace and don't stop till you cross.
You wait until the enemy has drunk themselves to sleep on Christmas Eve then you embark in stealthy paddleboats at the most dangerous and unlikely point of crossing.
why do fricking woketards have to stick black people in everything?
Pray.
dig a tunnel under it
quick and easy
>you have to cross a river
that's the neat part, you don't.
>What are you supposed to do if you have to cross a river but the enemy has artillery dialed in on every place where you can embark or build a pontoon bridge?
cry in despair
Airstrike the artillery
