Not a shill bait thread, but a serious one. This is allegedly next to the Crimean bridge. WTF?

Air mines
mothefricker they are attached to a boat
So they don't fly away
swamp gas
radar reflectors, trying to present a bigger signature than the bridge to bait missiles
how many weapons does ukraine have that could even be affected by this? neptune, maybe harpoon, ???
Their stock of soviet era long range radar missiles mainly
Russians using giant fishs to pull their ships?
can a TOW missile sink their boat?
depends where it hits and how drunk the crew is but it's very unlikely
The water makes it look like a bad video game/milsim.
Bad video quality or fakenews?
Target barge
Project 436
why didn't they touch up the paint on the hull?
Its a semi-disposable target barge. I'd be surprised if they get any sort of maintenance.
Apparently these things are still in production.
why does this stupid bridge even matter anymore when they have captured territory that allows them to not even need it anymore?
because a bridge hundreds of miles from the front line is more useful than a road tens of miles from the front line
moron
Because they can't hold that territory in the long run
Archimedes was right
Did they uhhh, tie the boat to a rock? Doesn’t it have anchors like every other boat?
Either way, Russia has been acting very paranoid about this bridge lately. Too bad moscova isn’t around to provide air protection:(
mooring buoy
>that meme
One of the better memes of the war
Look at all those radars and gizmos. What are the chances any of that shit was even operable?
Barrage balloons. When Nazi drone flies too close, will get tangled up and crash.
does ukraine even want to hit the bridge? would almost be like admitting to writing off crimea, but I suppose if they actually were to get anywhere close to recapturing it the russians would probably blow up the bridge anyway
Ukraine doesn't need a bridge to Russia if they're intending to take Crimea, the only reason they could leave it up would be to give the Russians a place to retreat too but knowing the Monkey King he'd set up troops on the other side of the bridge to arrest any Russians who tried to retreat.
20k soldiers with mirrors that will reflect laser guidance missiles.

Party barge
Why are Russians suddenly so afraid of Ukies destroying that bridge?
Because HIMARS can and without bridge Crimea cannot be part of Russia
But none of the shit they're doing will help them against a barrage of HIMARs?
Well yeah, it's just a copecage but for bridges.
Cope cage at least had a benefit of making the crew feel safer as they didn't know how fricking useless that shit was. These measures only make everyone shit their bricks.
The general has probably been ordered to protect the bridge from attack, but hasn't been told what kind of attack. So, like a good general, he will prepare for all possible scenarios.
Or worse case, he hasn't been informed that Ukraine now has HIMARs, so is still working from the soviet vs soviet playbook.
It looks weird, but if those are radar reflectors, it may be a decoy target for radar guided missiles, like ASMs.
They are preparing to feint Kherson so defence of the bridge will become a priority
