that quote isnt from the website he claims is bias. You're idiocy/illiteracy has caught up with you once again. :lol:

maybe one day you'll go to war like a big boy

don't really care which website he was referring to, that line is so fucking dumb it makes anything you post have even less value than it already had
 
Wow. You guys need to take you nationalist goggles off. The nerve of you guys claiming that other sites are biased is truly mind-numbing numbing. oh da ironiez.

all you guys are doing is basically saying ... "I dont like the sources quoted there". "No fuck what the chief designer of the weapon claims"(one of countless sources). "But i'd rather get my info from some butt-fuck western/British website/info group. :lol:

Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly planning to replace the country's older SS-18 Satan weapons with the new missiles amid a string of recent disagreements with the West. The Kremlin has stepped up the rhetoric against the West and carried a series of manoeuvres that has infuriated politicians in the US and UK.

... solid article
 
Sidenote: trying to claim that Russian sourced information isn't biased just because it's self-referential (do you trust American articles talking about the American military hurdur) rather than because it's fucking Russia is kinda lol.

okay, so military-today.com, dailymail.uk along with the HUNDREDS of similar articles form all parts of the world are all Russian sourced right? Did you even bother reading through any related article before spewing out your nonsense bruh? Talking out of your loose asses has become a daily habit for some of you. truly sad and pathetic. I think im just going to stick to the NP thread form now on since im starting to really despise some of ya'll.
 
You missed my point. I'm not saying you're wrong about the sources being fine, I'm just disagreeing with your initial logic that it's hypocritical to have more trust for self-referential American articles while you doubt the objectivity of self-referential Russian articles.

Russia and America are definitely not on equal footing when it comes to pumping out propaganda and doctored information.

No one here said they were, most of the basic info is fine, it's just some of that article from the one site seemed absurdly propagandistic. I don't trust the media in general anyhow, Western or otherwise.
 
Russian military technology is in some cases equal or superior to similar NATO technology. The S400 is a perfect example.
For sure, and they're not exactly state of the art, but the Kirov warships are just about some of the most ungodly warehouses of sheer firepower I've ever seen to this day. There's 4 of them too.
 
@Dak you catch that 1k arty marines went over and 1 BCT from Bragg left for Iraq/Syria last week or so?

I knew arty Marine "boots were on the ground" yeah. Not surprised.

There was some open discussion of this at the Senate Armed Services Committee last week, when the four-star head of Africa Command acknowledged the US believes Russia is trying to manipulate the political outcome in Libya.

The pot getting mad at the kettle.
 
Someone died for you, so you can do whatever it is you do, so you have to respect the military.
 
Hugo Weaving's performance in Hacksaw Ridge is incredible, and Mel Gibson killed it in directing. Great movie.

Drawbacks: Wrong boots and Vince Vaughan. Not that he did a bad job, but because I can't believe him in the role.

7th Day Adventist. Big difference within Protestantism.

As one trying to return to service within a military medical capacity, I have some sympathies with the orientation. However, I have no issue with a weapon, as multiple expert rifle quals indicate.

Edit: The primary modern point is that although we can physically save many people at this point from total or partial physical incapacitation/death, there are mental considerations. This is within my area of interest.
