Even better/worse, it's the account of the Russian Embassy...in the USA.
That's incredibly gutsy and disrespectful. Hahaha. That's just brutal.
EDIT: Shit, you bitches, why are you acting like this is some pro-Russian comment that's some affront to your retarded sensibilities. I'm just talking memes here. It's a funny tweet, but sure, let's cheer on dead Russians for some reason, whoooo! Slava Ukraine or whatever...
Like the remains of 20,000 of their soldiers in Bakhmut.
Just kidding - there's nothing gutsy about sending your own people into a meat grinder for nothing and then making jokes about it on Twitter from the comfort of a foreign country.
Meanwhile, the Russians in Russia just arrested three of the scientists who have developed these utter shit missiles for "treason".
Their interrogations for "confessions" (and perhaps to denounce their colleagues so they too could be arrested, interrogated, convicted and shot as in the 1930s) are certainly way more brutal.
The letter also cited the case of Dmitry Kolker, another Siberian scientist who was arrested last year on suspicion of state treason and flown to Moscow despite suffering from advanced pancreatic cancer. Kolker, a laser specialist, died two days later.
It said such cases were having a chilling effect on young Russian scientists.
“Even now, the best students refuse to come to work with us, and our best young employees are leaving science. A number of research areas that are critically important to laying the fundamental groundwork for the aerospace technology of the future are simply closing because employees are afraid to engage in such research.”
Asked about the letter, Kremlin spokesman Peskov said: “We have indeed seen this appeal, but Russian special services are working on this. They are doing their job. These are very serious accusations.”
I don't know why these otherwise smart people work in Russia. Guess one can be smart while also retarded.
It's very typical there, and nothing new. Imagine being all of these actual scientists and staying in this hellhole while enduring all the absurdity and horror yet still believing in "scientific communism", really or pretending to, instead of escaping to some normal country like Sikorsky did or having the courage of Sakharov.
We talk about thousands and thousands of very intelligent people.
Its because a Patriot battery just shot down six of their "unstoppable" missiles, so they are desperate for a win.
This isnt even one of the top line launchers either. These ones are surplus from the 2000's that only had upgrades for targeting ballistic missiles after lessons learned in the Gulf War (involving some incident failing to intercept SCUD missiles). So imagine what it would be like with newer model launchers.
If they used more than one of these super missiles on this thing did they win or lose? I think the Patriots are pretty rare and expensive. I have no idea how many of those missiles Russia has.
Three Russian academics who have worked on hypersonic missile technology face “very serious accusations,” the Kremlin said on Wednesday, in a treason investigation that has spread alarm through Russia’s scientific community.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said he was aware of an open letter from Siberian scientists in defense of the men, but that the case was a matter for the security services.
In the letter, published on Monday, colleagues of Anatoly Maslov, Alexander Shiplyuk and Valery Zvegintsev protested their innocence and said the prosecutions threatened to inflict grave damage on Russian science.
“We know each of them as a patriot and a decent person who is not capable of doing what the investigating authorities suspect them of,” they said.
President Vladimir Putin has boasted that Russia is the global leader in hypersonic missiles, capable of travelling at speeds of up to Mach 10 (12,250 kph) to evade enemy air defenses. On Tuesday, Ukraine said it had managed to destroy six of the weapons in a single night, although Russia disputed this.
They did a combined saturation attack with a few Khinzals and dozens of other missiles. The interceptor launches were actually caught on video. Depending on who you believe, either one of the missiles got through and took out part of a Patriot battery, or debris from an incoming missile that was intercepted damaged it. Both explanations are plausible.
America says the system took only minor damage and remains in operation, as it consists of different components which can be located away from each other. Ukraine says they intercepted all 6 missiles aimed at them, so no idea.
IDK, but it's worth noting Patriot is old. I think it's been upgraded over time, but it's been around a long time. So this could be from back when American defense contractors made their own parts. IBM made embedded CPUs for a long time that were higher end in the quality sense, fabbed in the USA. And I know the government used some of those.
Shit talking could save the world from WW3 ... provided that our leaders can handle shit talking and don't react like disrespected histrionic women.
We're probably fucked.
The most pacifist president in decades is a shit talker.
"mokusatsu"

Fly a fag flag on every missile. The systems will be programmed to not destroy holy symbols.
It reads like the Russians spoofed the SAM system with a couple of bluffs and then destroyed it afterwards with one well aimed counter.
That's only my interpretation of the information available on this situation.
Only an element of one battery (which are dispersed) was damaged by some debris. It won't even have to be removed for repairs.
Very little damage then, odd thing to flaunt on social media.

Experts told me the orcs have run out of guided munitions about 14 months ago.
True, they are perpetually about to run out.
Two more weeks
America has more than 1,000 and this one was only slightly damaged.
Also, it was debris from this launcher's own dud missile: https://twitter.com/OSINTMISCIF/status/1658849243497394178
Their "super" missiles were intercepted. Again.
Speaking of which,

How many of those components are sourced from China?
probably 90% and the 10% of the other parts are worth millions (arms industry love their proprietary bullshit)

The Patriot is nominally from the 1960s, but it's like the B-52 being from the 1940s.
Yes, but have the Russians tried nuking our major cities? That would be hilarious.
As long as DC and Hollywood are the first to go. I need some entertainment I can watch on repeat
