I’d imagine a drone equivalent of a petrol bomb is probably cheaper, easier and quicker to make than a proper explosive one too 😀

Petrol and Vaseline mix for a cheap diy napalm, in an oversized milk bottle, strapped to one of those cardboard drones they’ve got, add a little remote explosive and it’s bye bye plane

Watched the Bear Grylls interview with Zelenskyy in the week. Very eye opening. There's a real sense of Yugoslavia about the desolation and the, no doubt war crimes.

But the difference is the singular sense of identity and the resilience and never say die attitude. Very poignant but incredibly impressive

Going back to the tyres, Ukrainian trolling is consistently excellent.

Who would have thought that Russia would be at the forefront of upcycling?

Russian missile strike kills 51 people in a village- 20% of the villages population, while they were attending a funeral

Just horrific

Seriously brave and not a little lucky, the tank missed once or twice before being blinded.

There was a 2nd Bradley that was in the fight too.

Watched an interview with the crew and the gunner had graduated from training in Germany in December. Guy is hoping the successful mission will help get his leave to get married approved.

Also shot down both an A-50 radar detection plane and il-22 control centre in the past week or so

Are Russia able to source / replace anything from anywhere are are they just churning through their stock?

When I was a kid, a family friend was an ex-tanker from WW2

His tank had been hit and Laurie had suffered awful burns

He'd been treated by McIndoe in the first dedicated burns unit at East Grinstead hospital (where he'd ended up settling after his treatment and where we lived)

I can't imagine the terror of being inside a tank that's under fire or badly hit

I think films like The Beast and Fury give a hint as to what it must be like

I know they want to emphasise their point with a picture of the Bentley dealer with a car for sale. It’s just unfortunate that said car is a Maserati Levante and not a made in Britain Bentley :lol:
