what range have their anti ship missiles got ?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harpoon_(missile)
220 kilometers air launched
if they have converted their harpoons to ground launch & maintained their operational range . . .
221 kilo war head would make holes in the bridge
it might also explain why the Orc anti missile systems cant hit them & you can see in the video the anti missile system firing low & flat like its targeting a cruise missile.
220 kilo cluster bomb missile would lay waste to air craft quite nicely as well as cause issues with openly stored wooden crate ammunition as was seen in the video previously.
i hope they have lots more
it is interesting to see al the Orc familys treating the beach at crimea like Disney land while they kill Ukrainian civilians and bring an entire country to its knees
what russia has been hoping is the war will never be brought home
now it is
readings CCs' item on the pay-out to the family of what is 350k nz dollars
the soldier was 24 years old and joined the military from high school which would be 17 or 16 years old
which is roughly $45,000.00 per year salary for 7 or 8 years service.
i gues that pay-out might have been his wages.
but the mother is singing the party line about propaganda so money well spent for Moscow.
i wonder how many of the Orcs surrounding crimea are from moscow & st petersberg
possibly quite a few as it would have been seen as a safe place where military familys get 5 star treatment and live like kings.
now the back yard of their war game playground has started to blow up
they will be panicking because im sure the kremlin told them it was perfectly safe for them there.
now it starts to look like a war.
pressure will be coming on putin to declare something now crimea is exploding.
but what is the question, i doubt he will back out of the donbas
only way to get them out is to pound them out and soon those soldiers on the wrong side of the river are going to be looking at winter, under fire with no food or support
and maybe some of the richer familys have children in those ranks.
im guessing all the rich and military high ranking people fled in those columns of vehicles that were seen evacuating over the bridges soon after they were hit for the first time.
now hopefully the bridges are impassable and wild panic ensues in the Orcs as they have no evacuation of wounded or retreat path.
hopefully Ukraine can hit the pontoon bridges as soon as possible to really drive the nail in.
if they cant evacuate their wounded out it will help crush Orc morale even more than them not being able to get new equipment and personal in.
if they use helicopters hopefully Ukraine can reach them with missiles
i guess mass helicopter evacuations will be the Orcs only option and that will be sewing seeds of discontent as privilege and class get out before the poor commoners.
like rabid dogs they will start to fight amongst themselves
Ukraine is creating a pressure cooker which will put heat directly on crimea & the kremlin
