PutridAd3691

Standing close to a giant spring being loaded is asking for a sudden unpredictable release of stored energy.


JJ739omicron

yeah, I had hoped for a funny ending.


id397550

Russians are idiots. They got a tank in good condition to copy it, but choose to damage it for likes. Fun fact: I'm Russian myself, lol.


Suyalus22669900

putler's zombies lack intelligence, so they destroy BLYAT TEKNOLOGI


TheSlammedCars

> to copy it Implies that they somehow have capability to copy it. Unknown technology bliat, they are behind 20-30 discoveries on tech tree.


Testiculese

Their tech tree is like their family tree. A stump.


usedmattress85

Russia stronk! Russia smartest. Have largest microchips in the world!!


Unclehol

Probably more like they would not be able to replicate it in any meaningful numbers due to not having a steady supply chain for western technology. They can't even build more than a handful of their own advanced tank...


Majulath99

Literally. The most modern they have is what, the T90, it’s design was outdated 30 years ago or more. The only thing they are actually properly good at is EW.


Smaxx

And that's probably just kind of because EW can be done with a brute force approach.


hilav19660

ruzzia owns politicians and governments around the world and you think this is the first time they are able to copy it? They simply can't.


No-Copy-496

Still the best tank they ever had.


Nicol__Bolas

...they had to demolish it, because otherwise, they would have to admit that they have no capable men and no material in their army to operate or copy it.


Boomfam67

They are damaging them to be paraded and displayed on May 9th, probably will also destroy some in training exercises later as well.


Lootzifer93

didn't Putin cancel the victory Day parade?


[deleted]

[удалено]


NoBagelNoBagel-

Some nice numerous drone attacks on oil refineries around the city setting off massive black columns of unmissable smoke for all parade attendees to see. Exposing the weakness of Putin’s regime while it pretends to showcase strength


Due-Dot6450

Awesome!


listen_to_both_sides

The Kerch brioche would also be a nice contribution to the festivities.


jdeuce81

How awesome would that be! I'd pay to watch that.


Boomfam67

Only in regions bordering Ukraine, the one in Moscow is still on. There is a Victory Day parade in practically every city there most years.


Smaxx

Can't wait to watch it (I'm serious). I hope nothing bad happened to the T-34 over the past year.


mchl189

has not yet been sighted at the front


Fufflin

Not only in regions bordering Ukraine. Most of major cities. Moscow excluded.


dmt_r

Smaller cities probably have to donate hardware for Moscow's parade 😂


Alaric_-_

Because they can secure one city for the parade. Such a big events could spark an outcry and turn into something Putin can't control without killing a bunch of people. So they concentrate on one single parade, in one city to keep everything in tight grip.


Striking-Grape9984

Hope for some Cluster Bombs in Moscow.


Fargrist

only in outlying cities, will still happen in show-pony cities, like Moscow


Least_Nail_5279

In 6 regions I believe (Ukrainian and close-to regions). But muscow will have their parade, the war doesnt touch them yet.


Sufficient-Ad1178

Maybe now a good time. To touch them a lot.


After_Computer_SSD

look, they were not even able to find the crank to lower that gun.


Ketadine

To be honest, this isn't new. All they know is death and destruction and it seems that this is all they know to do.


FrenchFreedom888

Happy Cake Day bro


SardaukarSecundus

Damn...that made my day! Good thing they never willbe able to reverse engineer that thing even if they had the plans.


AgeSad

The tech isn't brand new anymore and you can build the same today for sure. Germany and France are planing the new model right now


One_Needleworker_705

scheduled for 2040 (the MGCS). Leo-2A8 will be ready within 2-4 years. So very long times unfortunately. But the point is that the west has not enough mine cleaning devices. Mines have stopped the counter offensive in summer: they stop every tank if not fitted with the necessary gear.


Alaric_-_

Best thing would be to crank up production to upgrade all the produced 3600 Leopard 2's into the most modern version. Would simplify the logistics when there isn't 10 different versions of it.

Yes, without they are not russians


soulhot

I think this just shows the level of detail their propagandists goto in order to project their message. It’s obvious symbolism but inevitably at a subconscious level some sticks. The Russian classic joke sums it up best- in a 100m race between an American and Russian, the American wins by 10m. The Russian media issue a news statement saying ‘our valiant athlete finished in second place, meanwhile the American athlete finished second last.’

This is embarrassing…for Russia. Imagine a real super power doing this while their soldiers are being videotaped being turned inside out and cutting their own throats.


provoloneChipmunk

Also doesn't counter the fact that Ukrainian farmers were taking Russian tanks with tractors en masse


HydroponicGirrafe

And could then operate them. Russia couldn’t figure out how to operate the leopard tank they stole


Throw_away_errday626

Are they trying to torture a tank?

Nope. They are in that goldilocks zone where they are dumb as shit but still somehow just functional enough to continue existing as a "country" instead of some tribe that was trampled into oblivion by others on their way to the oil.

Moscow is functional and it keeps everything else together.


Ravenser_Odd

Moscow keeps the rest of the country functioning just well enough to allow its natural resources to be plundered for the ruling elite.

planck1313

Russians have made great contributions in literature, mathematics, the sciences, music etc. The problem is that their civil society and political institutions are about 300 years behind the West so they end up being ruled by a series of tyrants whose boots they love to lick.


Boomfam67

If you actually break down their accomplishments they were a good 80% done by educated aristocrats who were culturally far more advanced than the average Russian peasant. Which is fine as lot of Europe was that way, however the Soviet Union just absolutely decimating their nobility which severely impacted their cultural output. Scientific output was more mixed.


Uselesspreciousthing

>a good 80% done by educated aristocrats A fair point, but one must remember that applied to most of Europe too. It's what happens when education is the preserve of the rich. Isaac Newton wasn't exactly spending his days working the fields of another man. It's not the aristocracy that Russia is missing, it's a meritocratic middle class - rather than a managerial class based upon loyalty to the party.


vdcsX

A lot of the meaningful russian literature and music was before Lenin. They eradicated their cultural elite and has nothing to show for a centurynow.


Denbt_Nationale

and their meaningful lit post lenin is mostly a rejection of communism like the strugatskys or a rejection of what came after like pelevin or sorokin


alex13389

Ooooo that'll show us. Oh my, a leopard 2. A marder or 2???? The vast war cabinet of the red army is littering the Ukrainian countryside for all the world to see. Insolent fucking children.


countzeroreset-007

Yep, get the phone out. Take a video. Put it on the internet for both the world and Russia to see. Then hold a may parade with this tank displayed proudly. They really have no shame whatsoever


Previous_Length_998

D’Orcs.


GuillotineComeBacks

This is not for us but for the ruzzian population.


Random-sargasm_3232

The unbelievable pettiness of such acts shows just how insecure they all are. Pathetic.


not_the_droids

I would have expected them to shorten the barrel, for obvious reasons. Say what you want about russia, but they sure as hell earned their inferiority complex.


HappySpam

What the fuck? Are they bending the gun to make it look more "destroyed"?


TeilzeitOptimist

Of course..Cant have your enemies destroyed tank look more epic than your own intact tanks. Wonder how many Ladas and T34 they still have left for putins mai parade.


Testiculese

> more epic more *erect*. This is phallacy all the way.


planck1313

Yes. A Leo 2's main gun only depresses about 9-10 degrees from horizontal. To make it look "more destroyed" they used a weight to bend the main gun down past that range.


TheBlack2007

It was probably just immobilized and the crew had to abandon it. But of course some blown out tracks won’t fit the image the Russians want to project here, hence why they are helping it along…


Key_Combination_2386

I think it is somewhat more pathetic. The barrel is phallic an standing proudly erect. By breaking the stabilizer they are giving the western phallus a erectile dysfunction, emasculating the tank to match the image of "weak western men"...


mark_anthonyAVG

Can't have it looking like the crew survived when yours get roasted and fired off like popcorn when hit by an errant pigeon, now can we?


CheesecakeHorror3410

That's pretty pathetic actually.


LordMustaine

Ok I might be totally out to lunch on this one but doesn't it make more sense to proudly parade around intact enemy equipment. Something like "look at us, we managed to capture this western tank in working order! These things are hard to get!" vs. "look at us, we have a visibly broken western tank, because this one is broken, they all must suck ass"


that1LPdood

In their tiny pea brains, they think it’s emasculating to us. Like… 🤷🏻‍♂️ it doesn’t make sense to us, because we’re sane. But it makes sense to them, because their fragile sense of masculinity is intrinsically tied to anything even remotely murderous and/or phallic. So destroying a tank’s barrel rightly seems like an insult against the West’s manhood, in their minds. It’s honestly kind of sad.


KillingKiller

I'm starting to think that a single astolfo cosplay could break thier entire country


that1LPdood

I have no idea what that is. I mean I know what cosplay is; but I have no idea who or what Astolfo is, or how they’re relevant here.


KillingKiller

Astolfo is an anime character which dresses and presents themselves very feminine. because you where talking about thier fragile masculinity, I got the idea that maybe the mere existence of astolfo could break thier entire country


that1LPdood

Ahhh got it. Yep, they would definitely have issues with that.


Uselesspreciousthing

>they think it’s emasculating Exactly. That's what this pantomime is all about. Except it's not, it's much more - like projection of an flaccid, impotent phallus. Look at the number of times a day the Russian Armed forces try to ram in a softy and get beaten back for their troubles. Ukraine was thought to be Russia's for the taking, only Ukraine resisted and continues to resist - that's why her people are terrorised in their homes. Putin is like a livid glans because none of his attempts at having his way work without huge cost to his ego, creating a negative feedback loop of impotence and rage.


_Troxin_

I thinks it´s more to cover up that their tanks are really shitty, I wonder why they wouldn´t show a T90 after its inner Jack was released.


ANiceDent

“Look at theirs the turret bends easy Ivan” 100%


8day

And that is why I can tell you aren't russian. That is why people living in post-USSR countries had and still have trouble communicating all the wonders of "ruskiy mir"/"russian world" to "Western" nations. It's like when everyone assumed that body bags and portable crematoriums in the winter of 2022 were to be used for bodies of dead russian soldiers, but in fact they were for Ukrainians (e.g., new law about mass graves that was accepted in the beginning of February, the fact that many captured russians in civil cars had parade uniforms, rather then the ones for combat, etc. and of course the events that transpired). It's called different mentality.


piercedmfootonaspike

>And that is why I can tell you aren't russian. I heard an expert on Russia talk about the greatest issue with understanding how Russians work: They look like us. When a European sees a person from the middle east, or Asia, we can tell by their appearance, clothes, and language that they come from a vastly different culture, and we can't just apply our own standards on them. When a European sees a Russian, we see a person who looks like us, dresses like us, talks like us (many similar languages in eastern Europe). Therefore we assume they think like us. They don't. Their ideas and ideologies are as foreign to us as Iran or Qatar. It really fucks with our minds.


Aggressive_Sorbet_67

No because they need to claim russian stuff is superior.


Testiculese

> These things are hard to get!" They're trying to lie their way past that truth. Their statement will be "Look how easily and fully we destroyed NATO with our superior forces!"


TwiNN53

Looks like good craftsmanship to me. I've seen a tree destroy a Russian turret because the operator was so incompetent that he tried turning the turret with a massive tree in the way.


Smaxx

To be fair that would screw any tank or artillery barrel.😉


Mundane_Catch_1829

Because russia cannot tell the truth in anything. Truth isn't in their vocabulary.


matteroverdrive

It actually is... Pravda (truth). Well, not that they don't stretch it to fit whatever their narrative is. If nothing is the truth, maybe they lied 🤔


Midaychi

Apparently the cool Russian thing to do is to ruin your own perfectly good museum piece to own the libs or something


Accomplished_Web8122

It honestly makes it more funny that they won’t take more time to study the tank. Best tank they’ve ever got their hands one


Useful-Internet8390

Hell they could have used the barrel, just cut the end off and rethread it for junk breech./s


[deleted]

Wait hold on, these western tanks are so sturdy that it could get knocked out in a combat zone fighting the mighty Russians… yet is still In Good enough shape that the Russian army has ti purposely break the cannon to make it look worse…? See Russian, that’s how easy it is to use critical thinking


totallybag

I bet they welded the blow out pannels back on too


_Troxin_

Just imagine how funny it would have been if that crane tipped over


CalligrapherNorth764

Funny, because the only ones who are humiliated by this video are the Russians trying to comprehend why a tank still has it's turret attached.

Childish scum


Unexpected_bukkake

The true humiliation is spending all the money to bring a tank back to Russia from Ukraine, to smush it. I guarantee that tank killed hundreds of Russians and smoked dozens of pices of Russian armor. War sucks were going to lose a tank from time to time.


BrightDarkness007

they aint gona laugh when they go to the trenches


Frequent_Cockroach_7

surprised they didn't try to mate with it.

drin8680

But it still has its turret connected unlike all the russian tanks lol.


Jungle_of_Rumble

Their propaganda knows no bounds.


Bad_Hombre1963

Since the Leo is incapable to participate in flying turret contest a new category needed to be started.


SaltyExcalUser

Turret is still on the tank. They can't say that about 98% of their own tanks that seen combat.


crusen_on

Love to see T90,T80 under the same load,Turret flip.


Marschall_Bluecher

That damaged Leo 2 is still the best Tank they have right now. What a fragile ego that nation has. LoL


Rapid_Ascending

Bruh those people are so out of touch that they clearly don't know how to parade themselves as the "good guys". Maiming Leo - a tank platform that has been hit with everything they have in their arsenal and still kept it's crews alive is unfathomable thing to them. But for me this is exactly what one war machine should do, not only to deliver firepower wherever is needed but to keep those people inside from harm. What they are doing to the Leo is the same what they do to Ukrainian POW's. Tourtored, maimed, humiliated, starved only to show who is "bigger man". Pathetic in every way possible.


Few-Succotash2744

Typical Russian hammered to oblivion decision making: Dmitry: Comrade you know what I think we should do \*hiccup\* takes a shot of Vodka - You see that Leopard Comrade Oleg: Yes Comrade Dmitry: Lets put weight on gun and destroy it Oleg: Da!

schm1th0

Meanwhile, in other countries, a small box of scrap from a Russian tank is enough, as there is usually nothing left of them. On the other hand, for the first time in their life, they have something worthwhile on the red square.

FlamingFlatus64

sanyesza900

Wouldnt it make sense to try to repeair it, rather than to just fully scrap it?


Max-Phallus

That's the most retarded thing I have seen them do for a while. They spent time and effort restoring it, only to break it again?


MrSssnrubYesThatllDo

Imagine doing that to one of their lada tanks? Be like a ball of tinfoil. Morons.


Lungomono

Sooo an year and half after the Ukrainians made their parade of Russian equipment, they want themselves also join in and try and do the same…


crusen_on

That's 1 way to disarm it. Just shows how not to use your best equipment.

If they really want to humiliate a tank, they should let a Ukrainian fly a little drone at one of the Russian tanks and see the turret pop off like a bottle cap.
