The way fines should be constructed. As a percentage of something’s worth.

Strategic bombers are used to launch the hypersonics at Ukraine. They are rarer so a high value target. If they can cut of kinzal at its roots.

Arctic ocean. I did a literal translation from Dutch… which made sense but was wrong. Sry

I was more referring to using a containership in the northern ice sea to launch a single wave of UAVs to destroy the Russian strategic bombers parked north of st petersburg. You know a one time strike option.

Or use clandestine means to build Magura type drone boat in the Caspian sea and launch against a vessel. You know, even more asymmetric. Like what they do in Syria and Africa.

Long range atacms and maybe a few cruise missiles that can take out an airfield. In no way does Russia have any air defense put back that far behind the lines.

I’m just surprised Ukraine has not resorted to attacks from an ocean faring ship up north yet.

Company sued government for not adhering to contract.

The moral outrage should be at the people involved in the contract negotiations for the government and the fucker who ended up signing said contract. That group of persons and their entire genepool should be made to fill the vacant spots.

We had something a little similar here. Local government had a contract with an incineration company for trash. Then we started separating our trash more for recycling. And the local government is now BUYING trash from Italy and trucking it here to be incinerated because that is cheaper than the fines in the contract.

Sure pointing to Russian incompetence is easy. I would like to see how NATO ships fare in a training exercise against a pack of 10 Magura V’s. I’ll bet they will find it is much harder than they thought.

These things are so low in the water they dissapears between the waves for radar and other tracking systems, they can move slow to get close and be within the outer defense layers before they are spotted. And now they even come with deployable mines, grad missiles or even anti air missiles.

You are right, sorry. Unmanned Surface Vehicle.

Yeah simple. It’s not like it’s rocket science.

Yes, add USVs to the treat list.

The type of threats these things pose are a lot more similar to missiles than they are to a Rib filled with goons. Low observable and fast, close to shore means that a high level of automation might be needed. Aka… a ciws.

And why I think there might be add ons, is the type of threat is new and existing systems might not suffice. Magura is armored a plane or missile is not.

Go figure, a lot of people don’t care about your fundamentalist backwards brethren poking Israël with a stick and then hiding behind civilians so they can cry in the media when innocents die.

Meanwhile US defense contractors are probably busy developing bolt on CIWS for their littoral combat ships.

Because it is easier to deny your enemy terrain than it is to keep it.

And Ukraine does have a navy. It is just made up out of very angry remote controlled low observable high speed boats that carry a ton of explosives and don’t have to come home because they want to hug your ship and make it sad.

Those ads that are now inserted during the program on us tv shows are annoying as fuck Banner at the bottom or side… Goddamnit.

Verizon is probably the provider for the 911 dispatch center. So calls will be carried by the network and Verizon trips them at the door.

Stronger ties… or better prices and other concessions. Once someone is down, you step on their neck… The strong mans credo.

India wants to setup their own military industrial complex. They probably have some outstanding orders for Russian kit that will not be fulfilled in the foreseeable future. So moving the outstanding orders over to buying oil and gas for cheap…

Such a dishonest reply. As the guidelines specifically even forbid using honest means to further a political goal. And the punishment goes up to the death sentence. But then you are a cheerleading an authoritarian government. Seems par for the course.

The guidelines categorize and outline specific actions that constitute crimes of secession and incitement to secession, including:

• Initiating or establishing organizations, plans, or programs aimed at promoting Taiwanese independence.
• Attempting to alter Taiwan’s status through legislative means or referendums.
• Seeking international recognition of Taiwan as an independent entity.
• Using one’s job or influence, such as in government, education, or media, to misrepresent or falsify the history of Taiwan’s status as part of China.
• Consistently taking part in or playing a major role in activities that support Taiwanese independence.

The new standards stipulate severe punishments for those identified as leaders or significant participants in secessionist activities, and classify actions causing “significant harm to the state and its people” as offenses that may result in the death penalty. Other punishments range from life imprisonment to fixed-term imprisonment, similarly depending on the severity and role in the activities.

In response to the new guidelines, Taiwan’s Mainland Affairs Council issued a statementemphasizing the democratic freedoms enjoyed by Taiwan’s citizens. The council asserted that Beijing has no jurisdiction over Taiwan and that the new laws are therefore not binding on the people of Taiwan. The council further criticized the Chinese Communist Party’s actions as detrimental to cross-strait relations.

Scheme just refers to a system. And you need buy in else billionaires just pull up their flag and move their capital.

The fact these people can borrow against their portfolio and thus have no income is ridiculous.

Facebook is able to make very accurate profiles of their users. Maybe they should just send someone to the address of the uploader of csam and other horrible stuff to break their legs.

In all earnest, the fact this issue is as big as it is on their platforms is only because for some reason they let it get this bad. If they want specific stuff off their platform they can just make that happen… specifically by targeting the sources… In cooperation with law enforcement and or nasty lawyers and a court summons.
