Some reports say Russians soldiers were told they were going to liberate Ukraine from Nazis and they were also told they would be welcomed as liberators in Ukraine.

If this is true, then I'm sure they're totally surprised when they get fired at by Ukrainian forces

this thread although it says strictly photos and videos has always been a place for discussion wrt to military matters.... People are allowed to air their opinion and others can respond to that...i I'm pretty certain that you sit on your high horse acting like you know better than the rest when in fact you know nothing

jl115:
this will be controversial but IMO as in MY Opinion South African tactics have always been superior than that of the Soviet Union, as was seen during the border war..... Even today the SANDFs problems thankfully aren't due doctrine(Suadi Arabia springs to mind) but simply due to funding and salary vs capital expenditure ratio....our tactics have always revolved around high mobility with minimum logistic and Air cover... Hence why even without air cover our boys have done outstanding in the DRC, CAR and now in Moz

I must admit, this is a war blunder. These Russian generals lining up their troops like they are going to a field exercise needs to be rounded up and face a military court martial.
Even in the era without drones, this convoy can be easily ambushed. Reminds me of the Nigerian civil war. When the Biafran army ambushed over 100 Nigerian army vehicles at Abagana. Reports claim nearly 5,000 Nigerian soldiers under (then) Colonel Murtala Mohammed of the Second Division, Nigerian Army lost their lives.
The vehicles were said to be lined up this way. British reporters before the convoy took of said, "Africa most powerful weapons approaching the heart of Biafra and they Biafrans have no way to stop it". A single short from the rebels explosive hit a fuel tanker and burnt the entire convoy.
My point is, I hope the Russians stop this cowardice. This is a sitting duck for even mortar bombardments! I don't know why they Russians can't make the entire Ukrainian internet blank and disconnected. They are letting troop movement to be exposed. You don't let troop movements to be known to the enemy, that's a recipe for failure.
This war, the way Russians are being captured, makes the Russians look mediocre compared to the Americans. I hope the Russians are only deliberately being soft.

The terrorist on 2 MRAPS and 8×GT in a well coordinated planned, attacked the troops with Vehicle born IED but were severely knocked down with ST Tank, 2km short of Ajigin Bulabulin, leading to the death of many terrorist while other escaped with bullet wounds. pic.twitter.com/JkKbJ53Yj1

Russias most powerful non nuclear weapon captured. This feels like a Mickey Mouse war already.

Most powerful non nuclear weapon of Russians is FOAB FAE bomb , one of it will literally wipe out a small town

TOS is a mbrl which fires short range rockets with thermobaric warheads , such systems are common in many countries

sczeska:
Anyway, it is a devastating weapon.

CaptainStephen:
Real piss poor tactics, sending tanks without infantry cover in this time and day and then this.
These guys will be chewed raw if they went this way into Africa and the middle east.

Odunayaw:
Russian logistics is worse than I imagined

I just hope they're deliberately actin soft cos in an eventual confrontation with the United States, the Americans would roast this army if they try this.

GreenandGold:
No they're not common.
