Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

"Welcome to the captured American military equipment museum. To your left is the Coffin on Wheels, and behind it is the Bloated Budget APC That Only Carries ~~Four~~ Six Soldiers. If you continue into the next room, we have the Plane That Doesn't Fly in the Rain..."
I was at the Military Museum of the Chinese People's Revolution in Beijing recently and they had a Taiwanese U2 that the PLA shot down as the centerpiece exhibit of one of the floors.
Say what you will about American gear, but it makes great war trophies.
I think Cuba has a captured U2 as well
The DPRK has a whole functioning US submarine they have tours in
Well shoot, now I kinda want to go to DPRK
Now I want to go to DPRK more
Beanis
Same vibe as US marines being confused and befuddled over Japanese light tanks, but for real
That's not a Type 95 Ha-Go at all!!!
Very distinct turret shape and gun mantlet, it's Sherman.
Yea, weird :)
I guessed others, but not this one. Is it humvee? Max pro?
Bradley IFV though I guess it's actually six soldiers not four
Ah, thanks! The apc bit is what got me confused.
Edit: clicked the link, and lo - the very first comment is coping about bradleys "defeating a T-90 with just 25 mm guns". This is why we can't have nice things
There's a whole lot of cope in the top comments, but when you get below those there's some actually good opinions
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
