Only in USSR.
American pilots had about 250 hours of training before graduation. Primary training (take off and landing flying crop duster) alone took 60 hours, pilot needed to make 175 successful landings before he was allowed to move forward to more complex training and aircrafts.
It's Soviets whose entire training was 25-40 hours and German Aces record scores reflect that.

Nah these are straight up descriptions of things that happened to Russians like bombing Belgorod.

>British Foreign Secretary David Cameron announced that Britain has given Ukraine permission to strike targets on Russian territory with the weapons in a new $3 billion multiyear aid package it is providing.

What other weapons does the UK possess that could target Russia apart from Storm Shadow?

>>61556689
Yeah that's true it can be good for that. I'm mostly used to pistols so it doesn't really matter. Close up I just need to aim a little higher and I intend to figure out the holds when I take it to the range to zero it. Any downsides to a fixed front? I like the idea of having that point of aim always up, and I don't want to keep sinking a bunch of money into this. Would it fuck bigly with nods in the future? I guess at that point I could just get a fold down if I'm spending several thousand on that stuff.

>Russia Says Capable Of Intercepting Hypersonic Missiles
>According to Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu, the Russian Armed Forces will receive the first samples of the highly anticipated next-generation S-500 air defense missile system this year.
>The Russian Defence Minister’s announcement, reported by the state-owned news agency TASS, signals a significant advance in Russia’s military capabilities.
>Shoigu outlined that the S-500 system will be delivered in two variations: long-range air defense missile systems and anti-missile defense complexes.
>This revelation comes along with the planned supply of other defense systems, including S-400 and S-300V4 air defense missile systems, Buk-M3 and Tor-M2U missile systems, and next-generation radar stations.

I've seen Russian soldiers beg for basic equipment, ammo, shotguns vs drones, beg for real armor.
Despite the amount of money Russia has it's hopelessly corrupt. Everything is stolen, everyone lies, soldiers get raped, they still use meat waves in 2024.
People are sent to die in Ukraine for Putin's ego, he wants to remembered because he's old and everyone's drunk because they got nothing to live for.
>Vodka has been a featured player within the Russian military as well, to the deep chagrin of many. Vodka used to feature prominently in the rations of soldiers. In the late 1800s, several studies showed that after a year 83% of newly drafted soldiers were taking the vodka ration and 27% were drinking extra rations (up from 57% and 10% respectively).[6] The defeat of Russia in the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905 is suspected by many to be owed to the excess of vodka among the troops, which not only impaired ability but decreased morale
Ukraine are fighting drunk retard rapists that are just there because there's no work and even if they somehow survive and go home they'll return to a home that's lost everything because other Russians stole everything while they were gone.

In other news, they pulled a 'lets rebrand the T-72 to T-90 after the gulf war' moment. Everyone now knows that the S-400 is a bloody joke, so they gave the latest minor update a new name and now they gonna hype it to the moon untill the next conflict shows the truth.

There's not much to say, one autist developed something interesting but they foverment didn't make many guns and it ended 'forgotten' for decades. All their 76mm are based on Schneider designs + Krupps influence so they're actually good and modernized often.
>2.5": 63mm Baranovsky 1870s, 20 years older than the French 75 so it's nowhere as good as that field gun

What a great gun for shoving in your pack just in case you want to take a shot at a squirrel while out checking traps; put a 10" barrel on it in .22 with a silencer.
