2022-11-02 at 9:55 AM UTCthere's an arm of Ukrainian academia that talks about how ancient Ukraine was the cradle of civilisation, how they had super advanced technology (like the Atlantis myths) and stuff like that. I don't know how much of a following they actually have but it's pretty funny

Only real history Ukraine has were the Kievan Rus. So it must be appealing to have a legendary history, even if it's all fiction at least they can imagine a glorious past. Actually Ukraine had a rough start when it became the Ukranian SSR with the lolodomor and all that, but later during Soviet times they were doing relatively well, after the war. They lost a bunch of people but got over 100k square kilometers of land, Making Ukraine thicc.
Interestingly Ukraine was allowed to have their constitution amended, so while still being part of the Soviet Union they had a relatively good amount of autonomy. So while all the Soviet Socialist Republics had their own party the overall governing body of the USSR was the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. So the Politburo in Moscow basically.
I guess they had an alright run until Chernobyl happened. -

best case scenario the tip of the missile gets stuck between the slats and it doesn't register an impact, worst case it hits a slat dead on and the explosion/plasma channel starts a foot or so further away from the armor than it otherwise would.
they did something similar as far back as Vietnam; most of the anti-tank weapons used were standard RPGs, and those things have a ceramic fuze - fire the rocket, when it hits something hard the ceramic breaks and sets off the charge.
they would wrap tanks loosely in chickenwire in order to slow the incoming projectiles down, ideally enough that the ceramic fuze wouldn't break even if it still had enough energy to impact the armor.

Before the Great Flood, they had space travel and made it to the Moon. The Egyptians found the pyramids already there and used them as their own. -

I dunno, most countries have retarded myths like that, they just seem to take them more seriously than most. I remember Turkish historians trying to prove that a Turk invented the jetpack in like 200AD or something but I can't remember any of the names so I can't find it -

It's been proven that those stones were cut with lasers. No tool marks whatsoever. Can't even fit a piece of paper between them. -

2022-11-02 at 2:07 PM UTClol, Turkey is funding a 'Muslim Corps' of Chechen, Dagestani and other jihadis in the Ukraine. Most of them already serve in Ukrainian units but this will consolidate them into their own fighting force.
https://dzen.ru/media/wargonzoya/musulmanskii-korpus-na-slujbe-u-neonacistov--63624dce0d311571cdb3e0b8The backbone of the "Muslim Koprus - Caucasus" consists of: Chechen units of the Separate Special Purpose Battalion (OBON) of the Armed Forces of the ChRI under the leadership of Akhmed Zakayev, the Chechen battalion named after Sheikh Mansur under the command of Muslim Cheberloevsky, the Chechen battalion named after Dzhokhar Dudayev under the command of Adam Osmaev, as well as the Chechen battalion named after Khamzat Gelayev, in the creation of which Akhmed Zakayev also took part.
is this the same Dzokhar Dudayev Battalion that fought in Syria? -
