15.09.2015 Ukraine Military Report: the Good, the Bad, the Ugly

SouthFront: 9/16/15..Ukrainian army is doomed for sure . The ugly fact is that unless it gets used and tested in real combat it will continue to fragment and deteriorate and the bad fact is that if it does attack Donbass, it will be destroyed. It is not Donbass that is between a rock and a hard place. The bit you did on the three Ukie drunk soldiers was hilarious- 3 stooge material for sure. Long term siege is not an easy thing for an army to do–much has been written about it.

On the other hand the Ukrainians may need to be “drunk” so as not to worry about this little jewel that might come their way.Maybe NATO troops should pick up a few bottles of whiskey as well:

“New York Times: Popular Mechanics: Russian “Pinocchio” is able to make a “hell on earth”

When we give birth on land weapons systems, it is difficult to find anything more frightening than the Russian flamethrower system “Pinocchio,” wrote the American edition of Popular Mechanics. Apart from the usual incendiary rockets, “Pinocchio” is able to fire thermobaric missiles, the newspaper notes. When you run the thermobaric bombs sprayed into the air around the target cloud of flammable liquid and then set fire to it. The blast and shock wave are more powerful, and all the oxygen in the vicinity of the object is absorbed. “This makes them formidable weapons for use against infantry or hiding in bunkers or caves of the military” – says Popular Mechanics. Full flamethrower system salvo of 24 rockets able to incinerate 8 city blocks, creating a “hell on earth for all who will be in the affected area”, emphasizes the publication. Heavy flamethrower system “Pinocchio” was first found application in 1988-1989, in Afghanistan. According to Popular Mechanics, the Iraqi army has recently used it for a blow to the terrorists “of the Islamic state.”
