Marshall Posted October 1, 2022 Posted October 1, 2022 As medieval as it gets, you guys think mothballed Hueys could help Ukraine in any way?
Lawman Posted October 1, 2022 Posted October 1, 2022 As medieval as it gets, you guys think mothballed Hueys could help Ukraine in any way?More harm than good… Without any form of sufficient self defense and early warning, Helicopters are a logistics asset just fast enough and limited in density that they only get used them to move important things and people. Those assets and people go zipping around with no effective means to protect themselves in a mode of transport that goes from everything is ok to catastrophic with little in the middle … and then you end up losing those things getting very important people killed.You could potentially do some work with decompressing medical within the support zone but you wouldn’t really need an abundance of assets to do that and arguably the current 8/17 fleet could be utilized to it since they aren’t exactly doing much forward of the FLOT with RW aviation.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The video certainly looks that way. Have seen some other speculation on Twitter that the damage pattern didn’t look like a VBIED and looked more like placed large charges. Either way happy to see it.

Either way happy to see it.It doesn’t look like your “typical vbied.”Some of the demolition weaponeering guys in SOF have designs for a downward focus cargo van/truck designed to do exactly this. Basically it’s a vbied that uses a large water cell above it to redirect the cutting energy of the blast downward. You still get the big fireball/concussion but it’s designed to cut through concrete in a way that isn’t easily repaired or resurfaced (runways, bridges, etc).Not saying that’s how it was done or anything of the like, but there is absolutely a solution to “how can I cut this bridge span in half with a whole lot of explosives and a couple barrels of water….Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1

hindsight2020 Posted October 9, 2022 Posted October 9, 2022 yup, I-410 in SAT on a Tuesday night during the amazon sort-incoming. Except they don't pick up the leftover shrapnel and debris in TX, and you get to share stories with the 20 other victims at the Discount Tire on Wednesday morning. 😄
