The latest PARS III 6x6 from FNSS in configuration with a remote controlled turret.

Unless the US Govt explains the Ray Epps situation I will not believe the Jan 6 report....

They say he isn't an agent of the US Govt but the proof that he was there is undisputable (and an INSTIGATOR of the whole thing) yet no explanation has been given as to why he was never the target of an investigation. Unless they answer that simple question I can't believe the Jan 6 report.

The restraint shown by LEOs is remarkable. This guy was asking to get killed...

California is getting ravaged by heavy rains...

I've never understood the attraction people have for California. Personally I feel its a fucked up state with nothing but weirdness. Having said that, even they don't deserve this. Hope everyone is ok.

Deputy Russian Chairman of the State Duma Committee proposes to buy back the Lianing from China for service in the Black Sea Fleet...

Poland to send Leopard MBTs to Ukraine...

Apparently its been decided by the allies to send MBTs to Ukraine. Wonder what changed? The idea that the Ukrainians will employ these vehicles as part of a coherent Brigade Combat Team or the Ukrainian equivalent is batshit crazy. My only guess is that the allies are trying to change the dynamics on the ground in an ATTEMPT to shorten this war.

I don't think they'll succeed though.

When was the last time the US fought/participated in a successful short war?

Gulf War 1?  Even then we were back soon after.

I think we're gonna see a decades long conflict here.  China still hasn't raised its head and I don't think it will sit on the sidelines much longer.

Putting out security is paramount. These poor bastards never stood a chance...

Brits are sending the Ukrainians 10 Challenger tanks?

Weird. The Ukrainians have yet to demonstrate that they're able to operate as a combined arms team so if past performance is an indication of future results we'll see these operate solo against dismounted infantry. A Challenger is good but they can still get peeled open by trained infantry with good anti-tank missiles & tactics.

Funny of the day via Reddit Jokes

A doctor goes out and buys the best car on the market, a brand new Ferrari GO. It is also the most expensive car in the world, and it costs him $500,000.


He takes it out for a spin and stops at a red light.


An old man on a moped, looking about 100 years old, pulls up next to him.


The old man looks over at the sleek shiny car and asks, “What kind of car ya got there, sonny?"


The doctor replies, "A Ferrari GTO. It cost half a million dollars!"


"That's a lot of money," says the old man. "Why does it cost so much?"


"Because this car can do up to 250 miles an hour!" states the doctor proudly.


The moped driver asks, "Mind if I take a look inside?"


"No problem," replies the doctor.


So the old man pokes his head in the window and looks around.


Then, sitting back on his moped, the old man says, "That's a pretty nice car, all right, but I'll stick with my moped!"


Just then the light changes, so the doctor decides to show the old man just what his car can do.


He floors it, and within 30 seconds, the speedometer reads 150 mph.


Suddenly, he notices a dot in his rear view mirror - what it could be…and suddenly..


WHHHOOOOOOSSSSSHHH!


Something whips by him going much faster!


"What on earth could be going faster than my Ferrari?" the doctor asks himself.


He floors the accelerator and takes the Ferrari up to 175 mph.


Then, up ahead of him, he sees that it's the old man on the moped!


Amazed that the moped could pass his Ferrari, he gives it more gas and passes the moped at 210 mph.


WHOOOOOOOSHHHHH!


He's feeling pretty good until he looks in his mirror and sees the old man gaining on him AGAIN!


Astounded by the speed of his old guy, he floors the gas pedal and takes the Ferrari all the way to 250 mph.


Not ten seconds later, he sees the moped bearing down on him again!


The Ferrari is flat out, and there's nothing he can do!


Suddenly, the moped plows into the back of his Ferrari, demolishing the rear end.


The doctor stops and jumps out and unbelievably, the old man is still alive.


He runs up to the mangled old man and says, “Oh my gosh! Is there anything I can do for you?"


The old man whispers, "Unhook my suspenders from your side mirror."

More bureaucracy....

I wonder how many NEW bureaucrats will be employed to implement this agreement. How much money is wasted to fund this trash instead of real combat power?
