Re:Ukraine's New Factory-Smashing Drone Is a $90k Sport Plan... by tibbydudeza on Saturday April 06, 2024 @03:10PM (#39954650)
A100 project has been talked about for years and Ukraine already drone striked the plant where the A50 refurbishments happen (there is only one in Russia thanks to central planning).

It smacked into the hangar where the damaged A50 from Belarus was being repaired.

Cold war relic and in the mean time NATO is flying off in international waters near the Black Sea sending back telemetry and signals data to Kyiv - not the kind of war that Russia ever thought about.

Nice little touchdown it was. But that’s all it was. At least there was some doubt and ambiguity then; these days it’s just plain parallel universes: https://x.com/chronology22/status/1776661958827151663

>not the kind of war Russia ever thought about

Did the NATO ubermenschen of March ‘22 imagine getting themselves fried in musty old Soviet bunkers? Did they imagine they’d end up burning a cool quarter trillion and still lose? Did they picture their fancy schmancy hangar queens stuck deep in mud, being among the easiest prey for the new threats? Did they picture entire Patriot batteries gone in one strike? Did they unironically think they could “just drive around” or punch through the minefields? Did they ever consider the logistics of something that wasn’t a three week airland wet dream? Barrels? Shells?

Did Ukropians think twice before dooming themselves demographically and economically, for updoots and likes?

Good news, this isn’t even the funny part yet.
