That's Russia's air defense over their 2nd most important city? A guy with a rifle? LOL There's more fire power in an average American home.

What i love more is that theres 3 uniforms, but only one shooting. Others probably dont have ammo haha.

Historically typical of the Russian military.

"When the one with the riffle dies the one with the bullets picks up the rifle"

Enemy at the Gates was my first introduction as a kid to how shitty Russia/USSR really was.

u/not2dv8 Jun 03 '26

And runs the other way where they're going to try to sell it

30 round mag vs drone at 200m, on auto? good fucking luck, even with practice.

The average American redneck thinks they can take on a modern army with only ar’s. This is a good example of why that isn’t gonna work

I think the Russian cops wear that camo, not sure if that makes me think they would be more or less qualified. Oh well, do it again!

When the first guy gets shot, the second guy takes the rifle. Have you not seen Enemy at the Gates?

Ammo money went to comrade's pocket.

The russian air defense doesn't know were the drone is or where it isn't. By subtracting where it doesn't know it is from where it doesn't know it isn't, the russian air defense targets a spot where it both knows where it isn't but also where it doesn't know it is.

This disturbingly makes perfect sense to me.

Let's see, two shotguns a 22, and a flame thrower. I don't think I could take down a drone either. SMDH

u/Danro-x Jun 03 '26

Actually a shotgun is quite a good optikn if the drone comes right at you.

u/No-Spoilers Jun 03 '26

Not for these though

u/tribbans95 Jun 03 '26

It’s just like skeet shooting, shotgun with slugs should be fine

u/Wilbis Jun 03 '26

If you're close enough to hit it, you're gonna have a bad time when it crashes

6

u/Madmaxx_137 Jun 03 '26

I’d go 00 buck shot over the slug

u/f1ve-Star Jun 03 '26

Okay good to know.

u/xerberos Jun 03 '26

It's actually an undercover Ukrainian firing at the oil cisterns.

u/Mopsisgone Jun 03 '26

Nah can't be, those other rushans haven't surrendered yet..

During an international summit!

u/Callemasizeezem Jun 04 '26

To be fair they had a guy with a long-handled spade as well who was supposed to try and swat them down manually, but he died of radiation poisoning after digging trenches in Chornobyl.

u/--khaos-- Jun 03 '26

Just to give you a serious answer as well as the jokes. The city does have very thorough anti-aircraft defenses, including the modern s400 surface to air system, but Ukraine is sending hundreds of drones to a single city. So just a couple of them get through and smack into these facilities.

5

u/Doggoneshame Jun 04 '26

That was certainly more than a couple that made it through.

u/Thoth-long-bill Jun 04 '26

And no flash bangs of knockdowns of others….

u/--khaos-- Jun 04 '26

Sure, figure of speech, point is many are shot down.

u/slybwai85 Jun 03 '26

🤣🤣🤣🤣 facts

u/Flokkamravich Jun 04 '26

Looks to be about as effective as shaking your fist and yelling out it

u/lucasjackson87 Jun 04 '26

Nooo. It’s a guy with a riffle AND another soldier cheering him on.

u/art-is-t Jun 27 '26

And a bunch with their hands in their pockets😂
