Hypersonic weapons don't need to be used often. The advantage of them is they are impossible to defend with anti missile defenses, which Ukraine doesn't have much of. This is basically Putin saying the west can arm Ukraine with anti missile technology, but it won't save them. | [

Sure about that? Putin? The megalomanian paranoid hiding-in-my-villa covid-terrified little man that he is? Surrounded by "yes men". Killing anyone opposing him?
If so, who has the balls to tell him that he is loosing? Who has the balls to tell him that he does not have the second most powerful army in the world, and rather the second most powerful army in Ukraine? Who has the balls to tell him that his soldiers lack moral, training, command & control, logistics, equipment or even a coordinated plan? Who has the balls to tell him that most of the money he´s spent on his military has been embezzled and used on yaths and villas.
But if he does see it - oh man, imagine the pain, the endless pain. The feeling of pending doom. | [

The cage armor is intended to protect against infantry-carried anti-tank weapons. If it catches a round between two slats it can crush the warhead or damage the fuze, preventing it from detonating. It isn’t guaranteed protection, as the round can still detonate it if strikes a bar directly, but it increases the vehicle’s chances of survival for a comparatively minor increase in weight. | [

essentially you're right, i's protection against anti tank weapons. But it's meant to detonate shaped charges early, outside the vehicle, so they squirt their molten metal at the outside of the vehicle instead of into the crew department. | [

No, early detonation of shaped charges is not the primary purpose of slat armor. Most slat armor is not placed far enough away from the hull of a vehicle to allow the shaped charge to dissipate properly, especially considering slat armor is most common on lightly-armored vehicles. Its primary function is to prevent shaped charges from detonating in the first place by damaging the fuze or main charge.

I wasn't very clear. I meant it can't take on tanks directly because I can't imagine it can take a hit even from the old T-55s and T-62s Russia is supposedly fielding. I suspect it's 105mm cannon and ATGMs could be very effective assuming it can't be targeted in return. | [

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 90%. (I'm a bot)
During a New Year's Eve speech published on her social media account, Lambrecht reflected on "War raging in the middle of Europe," a reference to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The IOW notes that Russian forces have suffered significant losses of artillery systems and armored vehicles in operations in Ukraine since the start of partial mobilization in September.
The IOW commented on a Ukrainian report that Russian forces in eastern Ukraine are currently firing artillery shells at roughly one-third the rate of the summer of 2022.

Right now Ukraine is taking losses while we get all the profit.
Another thing to consider is the M5 program. US is set to replace all their rifles with M5s but it will take a couple more years to get set up. Might as well wait until we have our new toys equipped before heading off. | [

Not too much at a time, just the right amount to slowly increase the heat and cook that frog putin until he boils. I am really impressed with how well the west has handled this. Never giving russia an excuse, always making it look casual and not planned. The demise is coming and he can't even see it. Beautiful.",
">\n\nOh he sees it, everyone does",
">\n\nSure about that? Putin? The megalomanian paranoid hiding-in-my-villa covid-terrified little man that he is? Surrounded by \"yes men\". Killing anyone opposing him?\nIf so, who has the balls to tell him that he is loosing? Who has the balls to tell him that he does not have the second most powerful army in the world, and rather the second most powerful army in Ukraine? Who has the balls to tell him that his soldiers lack moral, training, command & control, logistics, equipment or even a coordinated plan? Who has the balls to tell him that most of the money he´s spent on his military has been embezzled and used on yaths and villas.\nBut if he does see it - oh man, imagine the pain, the endless pain. The feeling of pending doom.",
">\n\nTanks alot",
">\n\nAnyone know the purpose of the cage-like material attached to the exterior of the tank?",
">\n\nThe cage armor is intended to protect against infantry-carried anti-tank weapons. If it catches a round between two slats it can crush the warhead or damage the fuze, preventing it from detonating. It isn’t guaranteed protection, as the round can still detonate it if strikes a bar directly, but it increases the vehicle’s chances of survival for a comparatively minor increase in weight.",
">\n\nessentially you're right, i's protection against anti tank weapons. But it's meant to detonate shaped charges early, outside the vehicle, so they squirt their molten metal at the outside of the vehicle instead of into the crew department.",
">\n\nNo, early detonation of shaped charges is not the primary purpose of slat armor. Most slat armor is not placed far enough away from the hull of a vehicle to allow the shaped charge to dissipate properly, especially considering slat armor is most common on lightly-armored vehicles. Its primary function is to prevent shaped charges from detonating in the first place by damaging the fuze or main charge.\nThere’s a very good post on the subject pinned on r/TankPorn that goes into more detail for a better explanation.",
">\n\nGood move, the mention of light tanks + we will say to Russia, it is only light tanks will prepare them to do shit about medium and heavy in the future. It is the opening of tank season, now Germany, you need to send tanks too !",
">\n\nI wasn't very clear. I meant it can't take on tanks directly because I can't imagine it can take a hit even from the old T-55s and T-62s Russia is supposedly fielding. I suspect it's 105mm cannon and ATGMs could be very effective assuming it can't be targeted in return.",
">\n\nRussia isn't using T-55s. Russia has sent T-62Ms, which were modernized in the 80s to keep them relevant. Russia isn't likely to have any functioning T-55s. Ukraine is using T-55s, specifically the M-55S donated by Slovakia.",
">\n\nCool.",
">\n\n\nFormer Russian Deputy Minister Dmitry Rogozin, who was injured last month in eastern Ukraine, said he sent shrapnel in an envelope to French President Emmanuel Macron. He claimed that this shrapnel from a French howitzer caused his wounds\n\nAww how sweet. Melt that shrapnel down into another shell and send it back to Ukraine.",
">\n\ninstead of sending material to Ukraine, we should send troops there. NATO could have ended the bloodshed a year ago.",
">\n\nThis might make Putin panic and launch nukes.",
">\n\nAbout time France has a big army and I think they have been a bit stingy.",
">\n\nThis is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 90%. (I'm a bot)\n\n\nDuring a New Year's Eve speech published on her social media account, Lambrecht reflected on \"War raging in the middle of Europe,\" a reference to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.\nThe IOW notes that Russian forces have suffered significant losses of artillery systems and armored vehicles in operations in Ukraine since the start of partial mobilization in September.\nThe IOW commented on a Ukrainian report that Russian forces in eastern Ukraine are currently firing artillery shells at roughly one-third the rate of the summer of 2022.\n\n\nExtended Summary | FAQ | Feedback | Top keywords: Russian^#1 Ukraine^#2 Skip^#3 Ukrainian^#4 artillery^#5",
">\n\nI think I'd rather have dark tanks since they're harder to spot",
">\n\nNot in the snow",
">\n\nHow many?",
">\n\nA 30mil autocannon pierced a t62 in the ass. 105mil can definetly destroy old tanks no problem.",
">\n\nEveryone is contributing to Ukraine, why doesn't the world just go to war on Russia?",
">\n\nRight now Ukraine is taking losses while we get all the profit. \nAnother thing to consider is the M5 program. US is set to replace all their rifles with M5s but it will take a couple more years to get set up. Might as well wait until we have our new toys equipped before heading off."

Every time a verified oldest person passes away, hundreds come out of the woodwork with the most disheveled old man they can find with stories like "oh yeah my neighbor's grand uncle is definitely 150, they just didn't have papers back then". Looks like we made it to the thread before that!!
It gets even more exciting when it's a world record holder because then every remote mountain in the world suddenly becomes ideal conditions to absolutely shatter longevity records for a few hours, along with the usual facebook-level wisdom about how the air from their neck of the woods has magical purity allowing this astounding record that the press doesn't want you to know about!
Sorry, I got carried away with satire here, guess I'm passionate about that trope.

I saw a great documentary a few years ago about people who lived past 100. It was great because not only was it the happy positive folks the media shows us, but some said they were “done” and pissed off they were still alive.
All of that “think positive to be healthy” is mostly BS and I get frustrated seeing it so seeing reality reflected made me happy. Americans hate to reference genetics because we need the illusion of control. It makes me angry but I try to control myself. | [
"For reference, this woman was:\n- 6 years old when World War One began\n- 21 years old when the stock market crashed\n- 32 years old when WW2 began in Europe and 35 when the US entered\n- 42 years old when the Korean War began\n- 59 years old during the Summer of Love\n- 61 years old when the first moon landing occurred\n- 67 years old when Saigon fell to the North Vietnamese\n- 73 years old (by three days) when Reagan was elected president\n- 82 years old (by two days) when the Berlin Wall fell\n- 84 years old when the USSR ceased to exist\n- 93 years old on 9/11\n- 100 years old when Barack Obama was elected president \nNeedless to say, it's hard to even imagine the level of change she experienced over the course of her life.",
">\n\nWhoa. The 911 and USSR ones seem crazy to me.",
">\n\nDidn’t even mention 11ish 1919 when the USSR began, 5 years after WW1 started. So she out lasted it",
">\n\nThe USSR only lasted 70ish years, so I imagine quite a lot of the people born in the years leading up to its formation outlived it.",
">\n\nYeah my paternal great grandparents outlived it by nearly 20 years and were born a few years before it.",
">\n\n\nAt her 110th birthday party in 2017, Bessie told us that the secret to a long life was hard work\n\nI'm gonna side with the centurians who claim it's whiskey and bacon every day",
">\n\nI’m beginning to think these folks have no fucking clue how they ended up living so long",
">\n\nGenetics, good health, and a shit ton of good luck (or bad depending on your perspective).",
">\n\nYou're right and I really wonder if diet has anything to do with it. My MIL is 98 and has always eaten like a little kid ( mac and cheese, tea and toast, cookies and cakes , sips juice all day) never eats vegetables and grew up on all canned goods but she has absolutely no health problems. She can't figure out why she is alive either, besides the \" shit ton of good luck\".",
">\n\nProbably has some great quest she needs to complete before she's allowed to pass.",
">\n\nDang, I am not financially preparing for 50 years of retirement.",
">\n\nI’m female and 69 years old. I just realized I am in great health so I could have 30 more years!",
">\n\nYea but will you 69 one last time before you turn 70?",
">\n\nIt is a worthy goal.",
">\n\nDon't let your dreams be dreams",
">\n\nNow there's a new oldest person. I wonder how often this torch is passed.",
">\n\nI'm like 90% sure there are a couple people currently living that were already older.\nEdit: nevermind, overlooked the \"in US\" part",
">\n\nBessie Hendricks, died 115, shot by the police in a daring day light bank hold up.",
">\n\nI was sure she'd go out trying to jump the Grand Canyon on a motorcycle.",
">\n\nThat was her escape route alright.",
">\n\nAll of these people who are “Oldest In The ____” keep dying. Definitely not a title one wants to have…",
">\n\nIt’s almost as if there’s a correlation between age and chances of death.",
">\n\nThat's why I've decided not to age.",
">\n\nWild. She crashed her motorcycle doing a wheelie on the highway.",
">\n\n(former) oldest living squid",
">\n\nTomorrow on my Facebook feed:\n\"Let me guess, she got THE JAB, right?\"",
">\n\nYour fault for opening facebook",
">\n\nEvery time a verified oldest person passes away, hundreds come out of the woodwork with the most disheveled old man they can find with stories like \"oh yeah my neighbor's grand uncle is definitely 150, they just didn't have papers back then\". Looks like we made it to the thread before that!!\nIt gets even more exciting when it's a world record holder because then every remote mountain in the world suddenly becomes ideal conditions to absolutely shatter longevity records for a few hours, along with the usual facebook-level wisdom about how the air from their neck of the woods has magical purity allowing this astounding record that the press doesn't want you to know about!\nSorry, I got carried away with satire here, guess I'm passionate about that trope.\nRIP Bessie ❤",
">\n\nAnd now begins the search for her successor.",
">\n\nThere's already a running list of really old people. Edie Ceccarelli was born a couple of months after her and is now the oldest living person in the US. A couple months after her is Hazel Plummer. The oldest person in the world is in France, she'll turn 119 next month.",
">\n\n1907... she has seen some scheisse",
">\n\nLiterally was too old for this shit. \nRest in power, Queen.",
">\n\nA true living fossil. What an incredible life.",
">\n\nAlso the last person ever to be named Bessie.",
">\n\nGoodbye, Bessie Mae - Jimi Hendrix\nThat's what comes to mind when I hear the name Bessie.",
">\n\nAmazing a person can live to 100 plus 15 years.",
">\n\nImagine having some great great grandchild born when you're 97 and getting to see them graduate high school"
