Ukrainian armor proves to be extremely effective against russian sniper fire and saves multiple soldiers lives

1. Keep the change ya filthy animal!

2. What is the armored vehicle shooting with? .50? 20mm? 30mm. That has to be terrifying

3. These rounds are likely subsonic 223, nice to see them miss so much after the armor skips their rounds

4. Way back in 2004 we kept receiving small arms fire from a specific building in Baghdad. Was an abandoned bank and some apartments 2.5 stories high. By the time we got enough people to clear it, the assholes were gone. This went on for nearly a week till we brought our big brother to the game. We plodded down the road in our usual fashion when said asshole started firing on our patrol. Was all fun and games till Brad assessed the situation and blew out the first floor with a TOW-II, bringing the building down. Brad turns around while stowing his launcher and drives off all smug like.

   It’s always nice when you have a big brother ready to step in when needed.

6. Grenade launcher or cannon? Very effective as the splatnik brothers found out.

7. I suspect this is ruzz video, of ork sniper shooting at ukranians judging by the text. Correct?

8. I’d be interested to know what caliber that was. The rifle this is being filmed from is a bolt action firing .338 Lapua Magnum. But most of the shots fired appeared to be coming from a machine gun. Short bursts. My assumption would therefore have to be 7.62x54R.

10. Where is this ammo from 3/5 duds

11. Ppl seemed to be confused with the title. It should say BODY armor.

    For context… this is Russian footage. The shots you are seeing are hitting and bouncing off the plates of Ukrainian soldiers. This is being filmed with a thermal scope / binoculars. The “explosions” you are seeing are the rounds as they hit the plates. From the looks of it, this is a spotter and a sniper (sucks to say, but a pretty good one tbh) with a semi automatic weapon aiming at a Ukrainian position.

    So basically there are A LOT of varying comments. This isnt a turret view… these aren’t “he” rounds… this is an awesome view of what proper body armor looks like when being struck by a round at this range.

12. The comment section of this video is a mess. This is a russian camera recording two snipers firing at a Ukrainian and we see the rounds deflect off of the armor initially and then they panic follow up shots and he made it away unscathed(?)

13. John Wick suits

14. Russian troll video. Not sure what anyone’s upvoting here? Comment section is just wild guesses.

15. Didn’t get a single hit, at all.

16. Good. Get fucked orcs.

17. The footage in this subreddit is mindblowing day in and day out
