unless we start seeing stealth warheads, it doesn't matter what it's called or who made it, only the size and velocity of the object.

Well the Javelin is a top-down ATGM, can it stop missiles incoming at that angle?

it has 26 anti-missile charges, and at least the wiki says it's designed to stop top down attacks too, so I'd imagine some charges explode upwards to stop that kind of attack.

I insist the stealth warheads be called "Morocco Mole."

I can't help but think Russia and the U.S. exchanged the names for their systems. The active defense system the U.S. has is called "Iron Curtain".

Also Putin is wrong to invade Ukraine and supply the rebels. Diplomatic solutions have not worked either. I'm not happy with Putin trying to play Cold War and all.

Heheh, likewise me...!

I think Morocco Mole would be better for a landmine, though. Or some kind of burrowing missile that tunnels underneath Russian tanks and then PHBLOOWIE blows up right the fuck below the unsuspecting zangiefs.

Baron, you're ignorant of the situation.


Homer, you're a useless little cocksucker and it's unfortunate the IEDs didn't get you.

How could the IEDs have gotten me? I was a 35 Fox, I had a desk job a thousand miles away from anything even remotely terroristy. What were the IEDs going to do, hop on a plane and fly all the way to my office? Use some super secret Russian technology to creep up on my photocopier all ninja-like?

You know, sometimes I wish the IEDs HAD got me, because then I wouldn't have to be here, patiently trying to explain things to mean, grouchy war-nerds like you. I mean honestly, SolRo, I love you, but sometimes you can be astonishingly dumb.

you should see the Ukrainian mythbusters

what about a two stage rocket that fires a dummy ahead of it?

Groucho glasses and fake mustache on the missle?

it's sad how strong an opinion idiots like you have on a subject without actually knowing anything about it.

East, west, it doesn't matter. Your video is missing "porn for war nerds" tag

actually it does matter, and the last bit is a valid criticism, but all your other bullshit doesnt talk about that.

I know that every time we mention it you flip out so we're going to keep mentioning it. I know that.

Since Russia is all about the self determination of minority regions now, when does Chechnya get a referendum on independence?

Ouch, good question. Professor SolRo, your response?

I frankly don't give a shit, as long as they don't confuse "murdering 200+ school kids" with "voting with a paper ballot" again.


I'll spin that around in a way an American could understand; if a massive ISIS sleeper cell decided to hold a referendum on independence in some state, how would you feel about the new Caliphate of Delaware?
