Something is fashionable, something goes out of fashion, and something is eternal πŸŽ‡

Another successful interception of the ATACMS by the S400. Top job.

Russia is going to have a hard time selling it's military hardware to other countries after this is all over.

Worlds best air defence system......defeated by cold war rocket artillery.

Hey Turkey how much did you pay for your S-400's?

[–] Badeendje 19 points 8 months ago

They at least paid by excluding themselves from the f35 program.

[–] khannie 15 points 8 months ago (1 children)

$1 - $1.25B a pop for export according to Wikipedia.

Ooof.

A damn fine set of explosions! And yeah, looks like they got the entire battery with that strike!

Edit: Made a mirror of the video, just since it is such a good shot. Internet rot is terrible.

Like absolute beauty of a strike.

It's one of the few videos where the beat drop actually makes me rock out.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

Lmao honestly, that is absolutely the best part of all this. Erdogan looks like a complete fucking boob. And he is, because for some reason he bought into the Russian marketing bullshit that (shocker) doesn’t seem to actually reflect their actual combat capabilities.

[–] NOT_RICK 10 points 8 months ago

It’s nice to get a chance to see what air defense doing, which is to say not much lmao

Man I bet Turkey feels stupid for passing the F35 for S-400.

[–] khannie 9 points 8 months ago

He was hedging his bets and what an awful strategic mistake. Imagine turning down the F35 for that shit heap of an air defence system with a $1B price tag.

Still they're making a heap of money by importing cheap russian oil, rebranding it and selling it on.

Hopefully we can figure out a way to stop buying the blood oil.
