Are there any examples of a country not surrendering after facing complete one sided bombing?
North Korea ? They got transformed into moon surface and not surrendered. With all the problems from infrastructures bombing, Ukraine have no time to refurbish vehicules, transporting supplies, etc. Don't know if it will bring collapse of the government, the ones pulling the strings are out of the country anyway...

Actually, once the USAF began destroying their irrigation dams in May 1943 and with the threat of mass starvation on the horizon the North Korean leadership changed their tact and accepted an armistice two months later in July. Had they not, the USAF would’ve bombed their irrigation dams again in August inflicting irrecoverable damage to their rice crops as their would be no time left to replant the rice that year.

The Ukrainian crew of one of the artillery pieces published footage of an attempt to destroy the Russian Lancet kamikaze drone. Judging by the sound and commentary at the end of the video, the drone has reached its target.


An episode of the battle of the Russian 155th Marine Brigade in Ukraine. Russian soldiers are pushing Ukrainian units out of the village, clearing every house and basement.


In Romania, footage was filmed of sending 37 American M1117 armored vehicles to Ukraine, a total of 250 units are expected to be delivered. The M1117 armored car was adopted by the US Army in 1999, it is an all-wheel drive vehicle weighing 14.4 tons. In the military hierarchy of the US Army, the M1117 vehicle is lower than the M2 Bradley armored infantry vehicle and higher than the Hummer armored vehicle. The ceramic composite armor of the M1117 vehicle provides protection for the crew from 12.7 mm armor-piercing bullets and fragments of 155 mm shells - when they explode at a distance of more than 15 m. The bottom can withstand the detonation of explosive devices with a TNT equivalent of up to 5.4 kg. The machine was used in combat operations and received good reviews. The armament of the M1117 consists of a 40 mm Mark 19 grenade launcher, a 12.7 mm M2 Browning machine gun. The crew of the armored vehicle is three people, eight more military personnel can be placed in the troop compartment. The engine power of the M1117 armored vehicle is 260 hp. The maximum speed is 100 km/h. Power reserve - 765 km.


Footage of the combat use of the Russian Su-57 in Ukraine. In the first part of the video, the aircraft flew over Lugansk, in the second part, the Su-57 aircraft hit the positions of the Ukrainian army, the strike was filmed by a Ukrainian serviceman.


One of the Ukrainian servicemen decided to show shell casings from various military equipment that are used in Ukraine. It tells about the marking of shells and describes what they are made of.

Are they seriously doing a low level bombing run with a Su-57?

the fuck?.

EDIT: Ukrainian soldiers on the frontline under mortar fire around Bakhmut




MOD Edit: Added spoiler tag to media showing solders begin killed/critically wounded.

The sound of the Su-57 passing is nice tho... but it's completely stupid to see it at that altitude, lol !

EDIT: Ukranian soldiers having a blast around Bakhmut

I would not stay put at all in their place...Artillery team just have to reload and repeat. I would run for my life big time !

This, I didn't expect. I thought I wouldn't be surprised again after all that has happened this year, but Russia has managed to do it again.

This surely takes the cake

Manpads are clearly a threat at that altitude. Takes the cake would be getting shotdown by a ZU-23-2 ... it would be an incredible facepalm moment.

Using them to hunt air threat or doing SEAD with Kh-58UShKE is the way to go.
