A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

so, like last time, one half of road bridge is dropped. https://liveuamap.com/en/2023/17-july-images-of-the-damage-at-kerch-bridge-after-explosions this time the span is twisted, and the second section also looks damaged if still usable
wonder if pillar got damaged this time, and at any rate a bit of (russian) paranoia wrt bridge can't hurt. i'd guess security checks worse than at airports before entering kerch bridge
It was hit by naval drones, so I think it would have to be pillar damage :)
the article has a video, the bridge deck partially collapsed on one side, right at the pillar. But the pillar itself looks pretty much intact. It's really hard to damage solid concrete with a nearby explosion, so that makes sense.
On the other hand, russia said there was no pillar damage, so it's probably torn to shreds.
To shreds you say?
Are you a physicist?
by trade i'm a chemist, but i do dabble in electronics. why do you ask?
Seemed like a physicist expression. I'm a chemist too :)
I use it in systems engineering too, fwiw
it's more of language barrier showing in nonobvious ways
IDK why they're asking but you have exactly the right skills. Electronically-Guided Special Chemistry Operations on Kerch Bridge when?
boom is easy, this was solved even before ww1. all the hard to make, worthwhile bling is guidance, sensors and such
if you want to fund MIC company, you need a mechanical engineer, maybe electronics engineer (for comms), and programmerS, especially those that deal with low level stuff
Terminal guidance of supersonic payloads falls under ITAR, so good luck with that!
and you need a lawyer
