Yes you do physics exists and gun barrels aren't super into impacts or being filled with mud.

You're article supports me not you. It never says it is or isn't a anti tank ditch, it does imply it's anti vehicle though with tanks being a vehicle.

Ps your proof being a tank crossing a smaller equally sided trench backwards with the turret facing.... away from the berm is really terrible evidence that you wouldn't need to slow or turn the turret away.

There is no stopping a tank force that's determined by obstacle alone, countries in WW2 spent millions and lots of resources into complex anti tank setups and the lesson learned is nothing stops them. You just invest the least to be the most annoying and by that I mean time consuming.

At the very least you have to slow and turn your turret away from the place you want to go which is problematic if there's people on the other side who don't have to turn their guns away.

It's deterrence but yeah it would slow down tanks and choke point them which is useful but it's not like totally impassable.

Dunno about vr but fpv is fairly common. Checkout rcsparks on YouTube, I dunno if he's still doing it but a few years ago he had a fleet of rc cars he would run around his town doing tasks. Like getting his rc truck and trailer to the creek to unload the boat and take it for a trip down the creek, the boat gets stuck so of course he goes and drives his rc rotator (big tow truck) to pick it out of the creek put it back on the trailer and head back home.

It's interesting if nothing else.

Russia is still a bigger military, Europe didn't pick a fight with them. Russia is definitely fucking up as usual and just throwing men and equipment at it with no particular logic involved.

They're already involved in a way they just haven't accepted it. No country wants to get involved but I'm sorry eventually they have to.

Bud, the world of rc heavy equipment is insane and if you're like me you will want it all.

Yeah that's their only smart choice. Russia may be fucking up big but in a war of attrition Ukraine will lose sooner or later.

Nah getting pushed along by literal nuclear bombs seems super safe.

You didn't but that also means you aren't following the conversation.

That's not heroic that doesnt even imply he's a decent person just less shitty then the one before.

You can bend over backwards to call the guy a hero but you're going to have to chop that definition down until your cashier is a hero because they didn't steal your change.

It's not uncommon for millionaires especially speakers that say derisive things.

Why his security allowed it to be in a quad rather than an auditorium is beyond me but seems fairly dumb when dude was saying he thought people were after him.

No that's a political ploy and apparently one you bought and regardless we're talking about his military career.
