It's funny for years they built up russian invasion as this modern blitzkrieg of wonder then it actually happens in Ukraine and it was a laughable disaster of scared conscripts and WW1-style human wave attacks over bumshit villages nobody cares about
he did, he made a logical point, Putin attempted to blitz Kiev like desert storm, but obviously that didn't pan out
I remember when people used to have reasonable discussions on the internet, even here, now we this edgy gaslighting snarky sarcastic shit is the standard.
Soldiers are dying in dirty places nobody really cares about for the pockets of the elite. The response was "But Dessert storm" in an attempt to dig wag because that's all people care about here.
>Putin attempted to blitz Kiev like desert storm
Nah he sent more soldiers to encircle Mariupol (300k) than he sent to Kiev (3.5M).
It was some weird Afghanistan style "We will be greeted as friends by the locals" mission that went wrong when the locals decided to not be friends.
>Capturing a capital city of a country with the 4th largest army on the other side of the planet in six days is just par for course in the annals of warfare
Nuked are not an offensive weapon (not large city killers anyway) they’ve always been a “deterrent” and the military’s of the world literally refer to them that way.
It’s meant to prevent attacks.
Tactical nukes with low yields to attack fleets/forces on the ground and punch holes in the line I fully expect on a conventional war.
I bet they’d have been used in Ukraine if Russia wasn’t afraid nato would would step in as a response
The original modern warfare trilogy was set in an alternate history where Russia had become an ultranationalist/fascist military state following the collapse of the Soviet Union, rather than a corrupt oligarchy.
Their disastrous airborne blunder fricked up their entire plan, and they had no backup (the US never does either, but they have the logistics to pivot whatever hairbrained plan they come up with)
I'm like 50% of the opinion that US intelligence knew about the state of Russian military all along, but wanted people not to know because that would lead to people wanting to cut down US military spending
It's funny for years they built up russian invasion as this modern blitzkrieg of wonder then it actually happens in Ukraine and it was a laughable disaster of scared conscripts and WW1-style human wave attacks over bumshit villages nobody cares about
The idea that Russia was ever capable of invading the USA was laughable in all times
But yes people thought that the Russian army would be strong enough to steamroll Eastern Europe before nato could put up a real defense.
That appears to have been wrong with the Ukraine situation
They have never had anything even coming close to resembling a functional navy and have only been used for propaganda purposes by evil actors in the government to steal money and reduce liberty.
I think it was the mission where you recover the satellite part from the Russian base. I think it's implied they were able to use the part to make their jets look like friendly aircraft to the long range tracking system.
Yeah, that’s what happened. It’s implied tensions were building for years as well, and so the Russians were ready to go when the massacre happens. Also, Shepherd was working with Makarov to start a war so he could be a massive hero—he probably assisted the enemy in getting over here
It's been a while since I played the game but I always thought Shepard would have gotten away with it if he didn't betray anyone. Since in the betrayal mission you are downloading all the collusion evidence from Makarovs computer.
>The Fake T-72 tanks from the film were built on the chassis of a surplus M8A1 Cargo Tractor, which itself was a stretched version of the M41 Walker Bulldog with four return rollers and six roadwheels per side instead of three return rollers and five roadwheels. The mockups were so realistic that the production mentioned that they were trailed by the CIA, who wanted to know where the tanks came from. These mockups would later be reused in several films including 1988's Rambo III, 1999's Three Kings as well as the series Tour of Duty.

I feel like war movies lost a sense of creativity when the 90s came around.
>I had no idea Ukraine was EMPd right before the invasion
The real life equivalent did happen though or atleast they tried. Missiles were supposed to take out the command and communication hubs. Their internet based communications did get taken down, through cyber assault or whatever its called.
Reddit spacer every post you have made in this thread has been stupid beyond belief. Spread your dumbass propaganda somewhere else.
You are a Black personbrian.
The west has been boogymaning Russia forever and at no point did Russia or the soviet union ever have the capability to hit the U.S. mainland other than icbms or maybe sun based nukes
>Russia is still bogged down in the Ukraine with no end in sight
How?
Make fun of America all you want but they at least didn't have to fight the Iraqi army for years to a stalemate. >inb4 Ukraine is getting weapons
They are getting old NATO surplus. Like stuff from the cold war.

That's what war has always been.
stop spreading lies, this is desert storm on steroids
>Scott Ritter
More like slumber party on viagra,
I bet you think you made a point, huh?
yeah, this moron doesnt know about 4d chess russian tactics
obsessed
some might say

>country with hundreds of stealth aircraft loses to barefoot terrorists
Nobody thought this except the game's target audience of racist 12 year olds and I'm tired of hearing it regurgitated any time this game is brought up
remember that all wargaming had russians nuking the shit out of everything before for blitz.
Unless you forget that Russia had enough nukes to blow up the world 10x over.

you would have a point but there is literal footage of soldiers walking towards a nuclear blast to train them in the use of nukes in the battlefield.
Read my whole post you illiterate moron
We will see who has the last laugh, Westoid
At this point I even doubt they have enough working nukes to send
That's exactly what they said about russian missiles 2 years ago. Now we get this. Kinda amazing how easily npcs can be programmed.

It's funnier yet that neither of those things is even remotely true, but you'll always be a gay.

How will Ziggers ever recover?
Remember when Russia seems like a credible threat from the other hemisphere?
The idea that Russia was ever capable of invading the USA was laughable in all times

How the frick does an entire fleet reach the east coast with nobody knowing about it?
It wouldn’t
lel
Didn't they launch emp strikes into earths orbit before invading or was that during the invasion?

Yes, that’s why he has you killed. In MW3 he’s treated like a war hero that was killed by rogue agents

I feel like war movies lost a sense of creativity when the 90s came around.
My favorite is the Leopard 1 dressed up as an old ww2 tank. Or whenever they used M48 Pattons as German tanks.
the patton movie is the worst at it, they just took m47 and m48 as german and american tanks
How do you feel about The Big Red One using Israeli Super Shermans as German tanks?
atleast they added some shit, instead of the patton ones
>paint them brown, put the german cross, thats a tiger
When did I say anything about COD being realistic ? I said the opposite?
Are you people fricking morons?

Are YOU FRICKING STUPID ??
Tactical nukes aren’t large. Even massive city destroying nukes don’t make “land uninhabitable”
Shit the frick up you are too stupid to talk too

I don’t know what point you are trying to make.
What are all these dead conscripts dying for? Denazifying Ukraine? Who the hell cares if there’s Nazis in Ukraine?
russia will save the world from nazism
Russia's economy is getting stronger and the US economy is getting weaker.
>Russia's economy is getting stronger
Kek.
What did all the sanctions accomplish?
ALL the eggs
reliability and russia was never associated in any capacity
Wasn't there a Red Dawn remake with Chris Hemsworth? wtf happened to that?
It featured North Korea instead of Russia and failed to make back its budget.
