  1. Wagner is using “human wave” attacks, like the Japanese in WW2?

  3. I was deployed to Afghanistan as a forward observer and carried around a 60mm Mortar for hand fire at short ranges <600m and having a static drone would have completely changed my capabilities not to mention having aerial recon on demand is life changing for the ground commander.

    Envious of the capabilities, not the situation.

  4. this is not a human wave attack. it is recon by fire the stupid way. no tactical separation etc.

  5. That’s why I would hate to fight in modern warfare, imagine you have no idea that a drone is watching you and that you are about to get blown cause they are already dialed in

  8. Es sieht aus, als wären das Übungsaufnahmen der Soldaten, welche den Granatwerfer bedienen (Klappstuhl im Hintergrund). Danach wird erst bewusst, dass das eine vom Feind anscheinend als sinnvoll erachtete Taktik gewesen war, um Land zu gewinnen. Jungs, betet für gute Offiziere!

  9. That’s a pretty impressive pile of spent casing underneath that MK19. Not sure about doing that out in the open these days. But back then drones weren’t as big a threat as they are today.

    Nowadays just about every drone is capable of dropping ordinance, with a few exceptions for the fixed wing, long distance drones that are purpose built for aerial recon.

  10. I vividly remember the first time I saw a Mk 19 in person. I’d just finished a 24 hr ICBM alert and came upstairs to head home and two security forces cops were field striping and cleaning one, and I knew I never wanted to be on the receiving end of that.

  12. That is a textbook example of enfilade fire in respect to the target! Line em up and just let the spread from the recoil do the choosing of who’s 200 next

  13. That’s not a human wave attack, look at footage from WW2 for examples or descriptions from WW1.
