Video showing how the Russian military is mounting Russian naval weaponry from the 1950's to 1970's on tank bodies. Also other items of interest but this is the headline article.
Earlier today on FR, we have a post that indicted Ukraine is using Jet Ski parts to build drones that operate in the ocean capable of attacking Russian Ships.
It’s what military’s do, they use anything they can that might be useful.
The USA is still flying a strategic bomber that was originally developed in the 1950s, yes it’s been updated since then but the B-52 originated in the 1950s or so and is still flying today.
True. But the thing here is the Russians and their acolytes go on and on about “mighty Russia” yet here’s the Russian military scouring museums for anything useful.
They would not need to do this if their war production and stores of war materiel were as deep as so many people want to believe.
I won’t call them desperate just yet, but this is not a good sign for them.
The essence of telling lies is low IQ.
Sometimes, the good guys have to lie to the non-good guys.
But in this case, it’s propaganda to fake like the Obama-linked fascists in Ukraine are winning.
What part of the video is a lie?
You forgot to toss in some tripe about the Jooos and the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
Go on...you know you want to. (-;
Next we’ll hear that the Soviet army is sending 3 me for every 1 rifle; first guy dies, second picks it up. Second guy dies, third picks it up.

Russian Navy’s massive submarine could set the stage for ‘a new Cold War’ in the oceans
What sets the Belgorod apart from any of the nuclear-powered submarines in the Russian fleet – or indeed from any of the nuclear submarines operated anywhere in the world – is its mission.
TASS has reported that the sub will carry the in-development Poseidon nuclear-capable torpedoes, which are being designed to be launched from hundreds of miles away and to sneak past coastal defenses by traveling along the sea floor.
“This nuclear ‘mega torpedo’ is unique in the history of the world,” American submarine expert H. I. Sutton wrote on his Covert Shores website in March.
“Poseidon is a completely new category of weapon. It will reshape naval planning in both Russia and the West, leading to new requirements and new counter-weapons,” Sutton wrote.
Both US and Russian officials have said the torpedoes could deliver warheads of multiple megatons, causing radioactive waves that would render swathes of the target coastline uninhabitable for decades.

Nice brainless graphic newbie. Do they pay you to post such garbage?
There is Soros influence everywhere, especially in the States. Does that mean you’ll let the Russian armored columns go everywhere they want?
What you are supporting is the Mohammedan occupation of the Donbas and the systematic destruction of the Ukrainian culture. Ukrainians are a beautiful people, and they are fighting for freedom from Moscow domination and against brainless zip wads like you.
Every Warship and Submarine in the Russian Fleet
Yet Russia’s Navy remains a formidable force, albeit with a rapidly aging fleet. To identify the 44 classes of vessels that make up the ships and submarines of the Russian Navy, 24/7 Wall St. referenced military data site World Directory of Modern Military Warships’ directory of all active ships in Russia. The ship and submarine classes are ranked in order of the number of vessels currently in active use by the Russian navy, according to WDMMW. Any ships on order were excluded.
WDMMW’s count of vessels in active service excludes smaller patrol vessels, auxiliary/survey ships, replenishment, and historical ceremonial types. Of the 265 ships, 83 are corvettes, which are smaller warships, a class below frigate. The Russian navy operates 58 submarines (both conventional and nuclear powered), 48 mine warfare vessels, 27 offshore patrol ships, 21 amphibious assault boats, 12 destroyers, 11 frigates, four cruisers, and one aircraft carrier
Yes and we are still flying B-52’s.
Yes. The US Army followed the innovative lead of the British with their “Funnies” and they welded German hedgehogs to the front of their tanks as bulldozer blades. Very effective, too.
It worked at Stalingrad.
