Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

[Foinikas]

In real combat Pz2000 artillery can fire 20,000 shells more than 4,500 as classified in documentation. Same for 100 shells per day. One is theory one is real war. You probably know the difference. Of course if Ukraine gets more tanks and artillery the firing rate per unit will reduce.

Oh and that wasn't real combat? And if the PzH 2000 gets ruined in "not real combat",by being overworked,then what will happened in real combat? The entire gun will blow up? Dude...we have the PzH 2000 in our army. It's a great SP artillery system. But the Ukrainians were firing 300 shells per day and ruined it in just a few days. They did the same with 2 more systems. The Russian artillery is more rugged,more simple,more let's say "primitive" and has less problems being overworked.

Well, that’s war. If hooligan, rapist storming your house then you fire your gun until it runs red melting. I don’t expect you read instruction manual how many bullets you can fire per hour. You think it’s kindergarten or what?

Putin is preparing his country for defeat in Ukraine and is looking to restrict the ability of PMC's to overthrow him ... quite telling of where Russia's priorities.

That's a childish excuse. These people were supposedly trained and instructed on the proper use of these weapons,by the Germans,French and Americans. It's like telling me you bought a new phone and use the phone after 1 hour of charging it for the first time and then saying "I didn't have time to use the instructions,I wanted to use the phone fast". And the battery is fucked and you have to change it.

What kind of a excuse is that?

Chechens look better equipped than the average Russian soldier. It's like an entire division of special forces.

Wagner fighters would not sign any contracts with the Russian defence ministry

Russia-Ukraine war live: Ukraine says flood evacuees killed by Russian attack – as it happened

Three people killed and 10 wounded after a boat heading to Kherson is shelled; about 100 captured soldiers from each side are returned

Russia’s most powerful mercenary said on Sunday that his Wagner fighters would not sign any contracts with the Russian defence ministry, hours after the minister, Sergei Shoigu, sought to bring volunteer detachments under its sway.

Yevgeny Prigozhin, the founder of the Wagner group, has repeatedly attacked Vladimir Putin’s militaryleaders for what he casts as treachery for failing to fight the war in Ukraine properly.

Neither Shoigu nor the chief of the general staff Valery Gerasimov have commented in public on Prigozhin’s insults and criticism, Reuters reported.

But the defence ministry said on Saturday that Shoigu had ordered all volunteer detachments to sign contracts with his ministry by the end of the month, a step the ministry said would increase the effectiveness of the Russian army.

The ministry did not mention Wagner in its statement, but Russian media reported that it was an attempt by Shoigu to bring the mercenaries to heel.

“Wagner will not sign any contracts with Shoigu,” Prigozhin said in response to a request for comment.

He said Wagner was integrated into the overall system and completely subordinate to the interests of Russia, but that its highly efficient command structure would be damaged by reporting to Shoigu.

“Shoigu cannot properly manage military formations,” he said, adding that Wagner coordinated its actions in Ukraine with general Sergei Surovikin, nicknamed “General Armageddon” by the Russian media.

>> more trouble in Paradise it seems..

'Neocolonialism': Moscow slams Germany over India purchasing Russian weapons comment​

German defense minister said India purchasing Russian arms is not 'in the interests of Berlin'​

MOSCOW

Moscow on Wednesday slammed as "neocolonialism" recent remarks by the German defense minister who said it is not "in the interests of Berlin" that New Delhi continues buying Russian arms.

"This is about the golden billion, the blooming garden and the jungle, this is the practical dimension of these theoretical concepts, this is neocolonialism," Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told a news conference in Moscow.

Zakharova said India, which has longstanding ties with Russia, is a sovereign country and does not need anyone's permission to take decisions.

"There was a truly tragic period in the history of India when the British Empire tried to bring it to its knees and make it its own appendage, but nothing came of it, they in London could not change the nation and civilization called India," she said. The British Empire ruled the Indian subcontinent from 1858 until 1947, when it was partitioned into two sovereign countries: India and Pakistan.

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, ahead of his visit to New Delhi, told DW on Monday that Berlin is ready to supply submarines to India to reduce its "dependence" on arms supplies from Russia.

Pistorius argued that countries such as Indonesia and India could become part of a global coalition as "reliable partners" to "protect the rules-based order."

The West is begging India now........It seems they are desperate to ask anyone who trades with Russia that please don't do it,. It is not in your 'interest'". Their tantrums are frankly boring and childish.

Viet has as always no clue, what he is talking about. His education lacks in Physics etc. are bigger than the Grand Canyon. Simply ignore this Nato troll.

Regarding the PzH2000: Well, it could shoot 20k rounds, with a worn out barrel and a dispersion in the km range. Maybe ...

The whole idea behind the super precision of this system is the epitome of natos autistic delusion how a "good weather warfare" would look like. You build a barrel with super precision, lasting only a few rounds, because in your delusion you think you will have air superiority and intelligence 24/7 and so you can hit and destroy every target with a few precision hits.

But in a real war against a peer enemy you will not have air superiority and no intelligence, so you will have to shoot huge amounts of rounds to hit anything at all. All your superduper arti barrels with µm precision will be worn out in few days and your whole precision masturbation become disconnected from the reality.
