Pretty amazing stuff here.

So Ukrainians have amended the OSA mobile AD . Previously, they would park, find target, and have to stay on/track target for the SAM to operate. The risk is it has to STAY PUT. Cant move.

What they did was augment this to be able to fire the R-73 Air to Air missile, used by the Air Force ( akin to US Sidewinder or AIM ). They were never designed to be used from surface vehicles. Until now.

And they have internal guidance- so now, a target can be found, targeted, missile fired, and the OSA can LEAVE the spot from which fired ( basically fire n forget )

All for $300,000~

They took an SU underwing munitions pylon, inverted and installed it as the firing rail for the OSA. ( obviously more to it than that ) its ingenious.

That video kind of sets a new standard whereas gristly scene after gristly scene unfolds.

I'm not complaining, I'm recommending that folks who like that to watch that kind of gristly, watch it.



I watched it. I wanted to know the grisly details of what it's like to dig a dead body out of a stout wooden deck.

Had I not seen this, I never would have seen what I just saw.

A frozen hard snow covered wooden deck. The body made about a six foot hole in it, they had to dig it out. Emergency workers wearing orange vests had to dig it out.

The video also shows the body drop from the window at the beginning. I've only seen that in movies before this.

it look like either some sort of metal or slate roof covering ( the slats were curved, so idk - never seen curved metal roof slats )

It looked like free three inch first slab cuts off of small logs. All of the not square planks, the kind of trash which will gather at every lumber mill. Mills generally allow folks to haul it off for free.

People without money are always cobbling something together with it.

Navajos heat hogans, and build horse pens with it.

My guess as to what the Russians were doing with it was making a shaded work spot next to that building which would reflect sunlight down into that spot and make it very hot on a summer day.

Around here folks also sometimes build shade like that. There's also a way to make old tires into a large area of shade so folks can work in the sun.

Unfortunately the economic sanction damage won't be undone even if Russia were to stop all hostilities today.

They are wanting time to reset. We can't afford them the opportunity, no matter what rhetoric comes out the Kremlin.
