I wonder how many satellites are pointed at this fleet. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
> i bet their tanks will break down before they get to the border
I'm not talking about what *will* happen, I'm talking about what *has* happened.
And for two years Ukraine has largely played a knowing territory for equipment/manpower game, and they're winning.
>We're still talking about a professional military
[No we're not](https://kyivindependent.com/russian-losses-in-ukraine-hit-500-000-how-significant-is-this/).
Quote : "The army that went into Ukraine has been totally hollowed out," says Foreman. "So it's had the effect of changing a professional army into a semi-professional, conscript army and you've seen decreasing quality as the number of deaths has gone up." | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Having lived during the hottest parts of the Cold War I can assure you that even Putin is not that desperate. They might kill a few million of us but we would still have the warheads to blanket the Russian state. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
I mean they did survive the Japanese torpedo boats this time. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Putin probably just wants the reaction and uneasiness caused by the headline of it.
I have no doubt this has likely caused some voters here to soften on Russia and become discouraged on support for Ukraine. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Karma farming. Lots of subreddits have age and karma restrictions on accounts. People will get banned, literally buy accounts to bypass restrictions, get banned again, then buy another account to bypass restrictions.
Foreign troll farms will also buy older accounts with large amounts of karma because it makes them look more legitimate. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
There is a method to that madness, the Soviets always let their ships just rust on deployment. Cuts down on labor and the rust kinda acts like paint anyways. Downside is your ship looks like shit and you have to deal with it eventually. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Or sinking, or catching fire, or blowing up, or... | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

The police there will make you disappear if you target tourists. Tourism is their first of 3 major sources of income. Rum, Cigars, Beaches. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
This sounds like a pretty reasonable take tbh. It could very well end up being reality.
I’d still probably disagree because Russia treats anything associated with their nuclear program drastically more seriously than it does other areas of its armed forces. For instance their missile systems are frankly good, with the lies about their capabilities taken into account. The Kalibr, Kinzal, and Zircons are peer to the US in my understanding. They also have missiles that are superior to ours in terms of range and speed. I don’t think it’s another T14 Armata here, I think it’s an area that Russia puts specific effort into (more so recently) as it underpins their nuclear second strike capability | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
The sub is a boomer(nuclear missile sub) and even a crappy Russian Boomer can hit the US from Cuba. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
The US performs exceptionally in battle even against asymmetric warfare. The problem in Vietnam and Afghanistan was that the public lost faith in the government to accomplish anything further than had been accomplished already.
The military does what it’s supposed to, it kills people, and very well. The problem is that there are situations where killing people doesn’t solve very much. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Congrats you just recreated my favourite tv show from childhood - Theodore the Tugboat!

It’s Putin giving Trump stupid talking points. “If I was president my good friend Alexi wouldn’t do this”. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

Don't forget the Admiral Levchenko (anti-sub ship) which may or may not still be on fire in the Barents sea. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
> Those sailors must be happy to have a vacation away from Ukraine.
I don't know. They're going to be the first ones to die if and when Putin does something really stupid. There's a chance it never escalates to that point, but the thought of it must be terrifying. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Most Ex-soviet ships were built and maintained in Ukraine, now they lack the maintenance, it's why they think the Admiral Levchenko caught on fire the other day | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
They are safer over here with those new weapons we gave UK. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

Hopefully, they’ll be able to make it back home under their own power. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
One of my worries when it became obvious that Russia was doing so badly was that Putin would create a Cuban Missile Crisis 2 in order to get his way. However, I don't think it will *literally* be Cuba again, and certainly not with this sorry excuse for a fleet. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
Maybe it’s my memory on the fritz but I just don’t remember any new wars during the era of mean tweets. But somehow all these wars is proof that your guy is doing great. Who’s the brainwashed one? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |

The Moskva totally reminds me of the Smokers in Waterworld. You guys see it right? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
You, clearly you!
Do remember when Trump tried to steal the election with a fake elector scheme, or don’t care to address that small issue of destroying Democracy and the peaceful transfer of power? Currently working on destroying the rule of law.
Do you remember members of his former cabinet testified in front of Congress that if the President didn’t issue a statement after several hours of doing nothing about capitol rioters that they’d consider the 25th amendment to remove the idiot traitor you support.
Do you remember that Fox News text messages in the Dominion lawsuit revealed messages between all those clowns that they needed to keep up the “big lie” as their stock was falling, and their viewers were running to Newsmax. Do remember when Fox was feeling the hurt in the media regarding the lawsuit details about them lying about a stolen election, that they had to settle on a lawsuit that is typical difficult to prove, but there was so much damn evidence via text messages and emails that Fox had to settle for 787.5 million. There still Smartmatic that’s gonna cost them about 2b, and some moron Trumpers who’s lives have been destroyed. Of course you don’t, Fox and the Sinclair Broadcast Group refuses to cover facts, brainwashing low educated red states (why they hate books).
You’re the sucker at the poker table, a victim of right wing media, Facebook, and red, white and blue bbq memes. I’m an independent btw not a “lib” as someone as ignorant as you like to refer to them as. Imagine being a voter so naive that you’ve been tricked by a television and apps on you SMARTphone😏 | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |

Wouldn't be surprised to learn that this force was originally 5 ships, 4 submarines and 8 tugs
And they got scared about Ukrainian drine ships in the mid Atlantic, opened fire on them and accidentally sunk half thier own ships
Again | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
> There is no set definition of cruiser or destroyer
There was, but it isn't adhered to now. The pre-ww2 naval treaties had a definition
Ex: Washington Naval Treaty:
"warships of up to 10,000 tons displacement carrying guns no larger than 8 inches in calibre" | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
That was a lot of words to say “I agree, there were no new wars under Trump”. But, I agree with you- it was a peaceful time in the world.
I mean, buildings were literally being lit on fire in 2020 during riots and, using my SMARTphone, I’ve discovered that those actions were “mostly peaceful”. Even the violence was peaceful when Trump was president. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
I'm confident in our military capabilities. The closer their ship is. The easier we can listen in and or destroy it if need be. Fuck Russia. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |

I'm not complaining, but unless something is done about that curious bump in Kyrgyzstan's "exports" to Russia, it's not gonna do what it should. In addition to putting on new sanctions, maybe it's time to plug the gaping holes in the existing ones. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

Yea we might be sending over 30 year old weapons systems but I’m betting we’re spying on that war zone with tech we won’t even admit to having for another 30 years | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
I don’t think anyone not at the Pentagon or Ukrainian MoD can answer that. Laser designating targets seems like absolutely an escalation that the US is not willing to do at this time and I don’t think the Ukrainians even have any ground launched, laser guided, long range missiles. So most likely, the US is just doing what they’ve publicly acknowledged doing since the start of the war: observing and passing on info to the Ukrainians. The only difference this time is that the drone operator probably got to see quite the fireworks show. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
It's funny because it's already been confirmed long ago in some NYT article the US helped with sinking the Moskva. I'm pretty sure it's also said they also help with HIMARS (and now probably ATACMS) strikes.
What they accuse the US of is something that's already been confirmed they are doing 🤣 | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
I really hope this is hammered home in the debates because it’s been absent from the conversation so far in any meaningful capacity. Trump is weak on foreign policy at a time when 2 of the top 5 political conversations in the US are foreign policy related. Party full of Alpha-male wannabes running some Beta bullshit on the world stage. Just weak. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Not to mention a complete re-analysis of our Navy defense tactics since those sea drones are surprisingly pesky and effective entering protected Russian controlled ports. A 100 sea drone swarm heading towards a carrier group sounds much more practical and a bigger nightmare than I would have thought before this war. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Not to mention the fact that some of the weapons we send them are old and need to be disposed of or refurbed, which costs much more than what we are doing. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |
Your description of the use of the 300 sounds like something that would be way more useful to the US it it’s recent wars than to Ukraine in that conflict. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-06 |

You joke, but pallets and standardization of shipping is a huge reason why the US and other western militaries are so effective. Russia is still using random boxes and sacks to move stuff and it’s highly inefficient and labor intensive | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |

Palletization allows the US logistical dominance. You could never achieve even half what the US does logistically by moving everything by hand in individual boxes and sacks.
It's wild that Russia SEES how the US does it and how much more efficient it is and just keep doing their insanity. They refuse to adapt.
Like, their ammo depots. They're boxes all carried by hand and then just sorta piled on to each other. I've seen a literal mound of anti tank mines, just haphazardly thrown into a pile! | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
Correct. It's called Rapid Dragon | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
The agreement was purposely left as a broad statement, but at the time and behind closed doors the US was promising more than just a "security commitment". Russia never would have signed a trilateral agreement that had very strong wording. They dumbed it down to get Russia to the table.
Ukraine rightfully believed the US/GB were promising military action. It's partly why they became complacent against a Russian threat. We definitely left them hanging in 2014. It's even more embarrassing that Congress stalled their war effort just because election year | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |

Even for the reaper, the U.S. did more than shrug.
We actually sent a pair of F35 escorts to shadow the drone the next time it flew over the Red Sea.
And we TOLD Russia that the F-35s would be flying in the airspace.
To the surprise of absolutely no one. Not a peep was heard from Russia and not a single engine was started on any Russian airfield while that 2nd drone flew, completely unbothered. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-13-06 |
