How close to do you have to be for these glide bombs? I’m amazed Ukraine has the ability to fly and launch these things at targets inside Russia
look like legend of Zelda map
so one bridge left ? it was 3 of them ?
As the bridge section did not completely collapse, can anyone assess if it is possible to just lay some metal sheets over the hole and it is usable again, for at least IFV’s?
I think a lot of us thought hitting a span in the middle made the most sense. Turns out, each half of the span can be supported by the columns on either side. You want to shear off the connection where the deck meets the verticals. It leaves the remaining structure to be supported a good distance away and that connection will usually fail.
russia is being completely out-manoeuvred.
They haven’t gotta Scooby.
Seeing Russian infrastructure being destroyed for a change makes me happy
