War in Ukraine

Putin has been labeled a "dumbass" for proposing a missile duel over Kiev.

The plane may have taken some damage by the missile system, but was still able to fly for a while, and then it came apart (or a critical system failed) as they were figuring out how to land it.

 

Don't they ALL go up and down before crashing? Landing, too?

 

Yeah, Ukraine’s army outnumbers rusia's army 4 to1, yeah… You’re such a mess; God bless you.

You’re the most pitiable poster I’ve ever seen. You post deplorable things. When called on you respond with 5th grade nonsensical rants- simply disgusting.

I will now join 90% of the board and put you on ignore.

 

I would agree to a duel, but if the idea is to showcase who has the best tech, let’s do it like this:

Both sides pick a 1x1m piece of terrain in an uninhabited part of their country (say, middle Siberia for Russia and somewhere in Kansas for the U.S.), put a plywood box of that size on the spot, then report the exact grid to the other side. On a specific day both sides agree to, each side gets to launch one precision-guided munition with a dummy warhead to destroy the enemy target. That munition can be launched from the air, surface, or subsurface, but it has to originate from outside the territory, territorial waters, or airspace of the targeted country. The firing nation must give the targeted nation a “one minute” call before the launch of the weapon and a rough geographic location of the launch vehicle. This to prevent the targeted nation from mistaking the competition for an actual attack. The targeted nation may use any kinetic or nonkinetic means at its disposal to interfere with the inbound munition inside its own territory. The targeted nation may not interfere with the target in any way and must allow a neutral third-party to observe the attack and assess the damage. I think this is a pretty foolproof test of each country’s capabilities and limitations with precision-guided munitions and defense systems. My only concern is that even with a 1000-mile safety radius, Russia still might hit Denver or some other population center instead of anywhere on the prescribed range.

 

So much for chemgator's neocon-inspired idea to bleed Russia by backing a proxy war that's killed hundreds of thousands. Genius
