Humvee can’t feed. Having bought such a car, they no longer look at consumption. In the photo next - is the new Oshkosh L-ATV SUV? A big target in the army case.

And still the old UAZ is still the most reliable both in price and unpretentiousness ..
This is his trick, I hope they will continue to release him .. And then these young and sophisticated are unreliable and very capricious.

Just don’t have to tease me that "before, sugar was sweeter ..", etc ...
And Hamera is simply a promoted "brand" of the USA in all sorts of Hollywood action movies.

The line from AK and the end to everyone in this UAZ ... In Chechnya, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of such cases ...
Russia is big, we’ll still recruit soldiers, right ?! Well, with this approach, UAZs can also be manufactured for another 100 years and BTR-80 type armored personnel carriers, infantry fighting vehicles and other ready-made self-propelled coffins ...

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

It is not the front to break through, but to ride in the rear, bulletproof and mine protection at a high level ... Most of all, it’s a pity we don’t have this ...
In our rear, the squad of militants or saboteurs can smash the whole column to pieces and go unpunished, or blow up a truck or armored personnel carrier packed with fighters on a land mine ...

To go nuts, they also proved their unsuitability for hostilities. Such an undisguised corruption move. I wonder who the United States they suck in.

[Sharky]

Well, what is unsuitability for hostilities, have you seen the movie "The fall of the black hawk"? There the topic of fitness is revealed a little more than completely. .
As in the movie "Rage," the theme with the invulnerable Sherman is revealed .

Are you talking about the fact that the Sherman does not make his way out of the tiger at a distance of a couple of meters?

Rather, the fact that one “Tiger” quietly destroys the 5 “Sherman”.

Yes, yes, and not only that. But, you understand that Bradalf Pitfler can not act in relatively disastrous films .

I watched a film about how Americans screwed up big. And the second part in general should have been called "Team zapadlo." After all, where the mattresses in the film did not go to everyone who helped them the scribe stepped on

[Sharky]

Remember how hammers broke through the city, fire from all sides, RPGs, etc., and I thought strong cars, even tarpaulin (if I remember correctly, I watched for a long time) the bullet doesn’t take the doors, not that cardboard roof .

"I watched a film about how Americans screwed up big" ///

A very realistic and instructive film for the military about the typical failure of the special forces operation.
(To the credit of the Americans, they are not shy about making films about their failures).

it’s just that in the YouTube segment about hamers, on what roads they pass, there is a block and is not available for some information
and I also like the movie where the hamer rises with his face on a vertical wall.
true UAZ smoothly jumps over the same wall

So they don’t do it to themselves))) ... To Iraq, Afghanistan, Ukraine - to local Aborigines as a gift ...

USA and gifts are not compatible.

A total of 11 vehicles in various modifications will be produced under the contract

Let's just say not a little ... I wonder where they "light up"?

so that the trash should be written off, it must be changed for something new ... No?

They change it to Oshkosh, but they sell scrap metal to skakal. Waste-free production.

[IvanTheTerrible]

I think they’ll go to Ukraine so that Svidomo zombies pumped up with military propaganda have something to liberate the originally Ukrainian Crimea, Donbass, Bryansk and Belgorod.

[Vik66]

They won’t get to the front line - they’ll go to the summer cottages for officers and officers, what’s on the move and what’s not - they’ll go to spare parts.

[IvanTheTerrible]

Oh, if only. For some reason, Ukrainians consider themselves a small country, while with a maximum mobilization potential of 15% they are able to put 6,75 million people on the battlefield - you must admit that this is a serious force.
Do not underestimate the enemy. Especially when there are so many Ukrainian patriots in your country, including at the highest level of government.

[Nasrat]

What are you guys in Ukraine fixated on ...

[IvanTheTerrible]

And where else do you think the US Army can buy and send obsolete equipment in such quantity?

[Nasrat]

Well, let's say - Poland, Proebaltica (although these will not pay, as indeed Ukraine ) .. Again, the Saudis promised to buy equipment for many billion dollars ..

[IvanTheTerrible]

Russia is holding a revolver with nuclear weapons at the US temple, it’s not that deadly, but annoying. And here on the border with the Russian Federation useful idiots appear without the economy, prospects and future, but with the willingness to kill their eternal enemies - maskals. Do you think Americans will miss this opportunity?
The United States will not fight directly with the Russian Federation - in the nuclear conflict they will lose much more than the Russian Federation, but planning and implementing a proxy war is for God's mercy, especially since there are more than enough volunteers for the role of cannon fodder.

Yes calm down! Your panic is useless. But useful idiots in the Russian Federation, complete and without Ukraine ..



To the topic of the article - They will sell them to the Saudis + they will boil Iraq.
Zadolbali already, to pull Ukraine into every news.

[Vik66]

Yeah, the patriots are looking at it, as if it’s more patriotic to grab a piece of fatter, even in war - diesel fuel, some kind of more passable technique ... And this is at the grassroots level, but at the top there are other appetites.

Typical American behavior. They are doing everything to ensure their impunity. Otherwise, they cannot fight. The psyche collapses into a tube of fear and tightens its tail, like a beaten dog.
