Fund NATO

nwowl.bsky.social•21 days ago

Who do I hate worse?

mchemar.bsky.social•21 days ago

Putin scheduled to burn in hell

whatthefog.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yeah, so Biden tried to manage this through alliances, diplomacy, etc. you know, boring ass shit most Americans cant be bothered with.

randomdude-6.bsky.social•21 days ago

If they enter NATO airspace.... warn them once, buzz them once, shoot the fuckers down

Enough of Putin's bull shit

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yeah, they won't.

randomdude-6.bsky.social•21 days ago

Ya I know, but time to start pushing Putin back to Moscow...

don't kick a bully in the nuts,
they gonna bully

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

I don't like what they are doing either, but let them fly, just as the American boys can fly in the vicinity of Russia.

randomdude-6.bsky.social•21 days ago

It's been going on for yrs in sky for sure

Issue I have is Putin really pushing things these days. F'n with undersea cables, democracy elections..

I say fuck him, push the fucker back in hole he crawled out of, or better yet the 9th floor window he deserves to take firstlast flying lessons from

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

Oh, the cables I agree with to full extent. No way 10 different ships drag their anchors across the cables in the Baltic over a period of 6 months "by accident".

That shit is deliberate sabotage.

rossanori.bsky.social•21 days ago

Frozen Turkeys come to mind...

randomdude-6.bsky.social•21 days ago

Refresh my memory pls

rossanori.bsky.social•21 days ago

Bird Strike at altitude is hard on flight systems

randomdude-6.bsky.social•21 days ago

Butterball beware 😎

hippymama.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yes, Jack, completely fucking innocent. Just a leisurely fly by. 🪰

captainwest.bsky.social•21 days ago

Don't worry. If Putin drops nuclear bombs in Europe, the First Felon will congratulate him for being tough.

johnmcdermott66.bsky.social•21 days ago

UK has only 300 thermonuclear weapons to wipe Russia off the map good luck Putin.

hds1.bsky.social•21 days ago

What a shitty plane … Russia has the worst equipped military on earth yet they have nukes that amazingly haven’t fallen off their crappy bombers while flying in Russia

zestrix9.bsky.social•21 days ago

How much for them to make a pass over the white house?

hfyou.bsky.social•21 days ago

To say hello to their puppet?

zestrix9.bsky.social•21 days ago

Literally lol. But nah I had literally been day dreaming all day about the white house getting nuked. I wish sosososo badddd

hfyou.bsky.social•21 days ago

Not a nuke, but here you go!

zestrix9.bsky.social•21 days ago

Lol I appreciate this, thank you

anita72.bsky.social•21 days ago

He's trying to threaten everyone. NORAD had to scramble in the Arctic last week.

scyllafren.bsky.social•21 days ago

Putin is a wussy. He only dares to direct these to airspace, where they won't get shot down... I want to see these demonstrations in Ukrainian airspace... For 2 minutes... Before they get obliterated...

doch22.bsky.social•21 days ago

Is it just me or are things getting way out of hand!!! WTF!

ladybluesky.bsky.social•21 days ago

Just curious, are we now the UKs friend or enemy?

ladybluesky.bsky.social•21 days ago

That is the dumbest looking aircraft. Seriously.

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

This is one of the prettiest aircraft ever built by anybody.

ladybluesky.bsky.social•21 days ago

😂

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

It also has the best sound of all planes.

https://youtu.be/fERjjGCohwA?si=PT1y7tHRb7UpT2l6

ladybluesky.bsky.social•21 days ago

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yeah, there are some good videos on the Tu-95 on yt, it's a very interesting aircraft. I used to live right under a Soviet military airway when I was a kid, and loved the sound of it. You could hear it for 15 minutes from it appeared until it was gone.

marie-14.bsky.social•21 days ago

Oh lord that’s bad.

406inthelou.bsky.social•21 days ago

📌

druidhearted.bsky.social•21 days ago

Fuck Putin.

diotimaellen.bsky.social•21 days ago

Think he's ready now that NATO is so weak? FUCK him.

anonymousprofitt.bsky.social•21 days ago

They still use propeller planes

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

Ohhhh my little friend, that is no ordinary "propeller plane". This thing can match the B-52s any day. Read up on it, it's quite interesting.

fluiddynamic.co.uk•21 days ago

nothing an amraam can't sort out

muskokabh.bsky.social•21 days ago

We are all fucked!

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

enigma8750.bsky.social•21 days ago

He's desperate. His Nukes have not been maintained. He's bluffing knock them out of the sky.

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

Are you from Texas or something?

enigma8750.bsky.social•21 days ago

Something

duncandixoncoffee.me•21 days ago

You’re not wrong. Vast majority have probably not been maintained. But the gamble is that maybe some have actually been maintained.
This is where CIA would come in. Except they have been compromised, and as yet, have not mounted any defence against the tangerine shitgibbon

enigma8750.bsky.social•21 days ago

I am aware of this. It's just that we cannot give in to saber rattling. I say these things not because that is what in Indefinitely believe. It's a phycological response to a threat that is meant to neutralize and to dilute their confidence in themselves. You are right on everything you said.

duncandixoncoffee.me•21 days ago

I don’t know much but if you want to know more about how Putin is manipulating his puppets, watch AOC’s video here:

https://youtu.be/EpTSO8J0Xwc?si=0NPqjbogUgCgt3VB

fluiddynamic.co.uk•21 days ago

Big slow lumbering bombers the RAF and RNoAF can see them coming from 10's of thousands of miles away and the there is at least 1 British Navy submarine with its payloads aimed at St Petersburg, Moscow and Kaliningrad 24/7 somewhere... in that ocean

notalwaysladydi.bsky.social•21 days ago

Putin feeling his oats. Keep the info coming as there is nothing on American TV about it.

kayiso64.bsky.social•21 days ago

I’m sure!

klausiedaimler.bsky.social•21 days ago

There's an app for that.

angrynavyveteran.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yeah completely unrelated. 🙄

gonzonorthwest.bsky.social•21 days ago

Biden had Putin on his heels and yet inside two weeks the guy is feeling his oats. Trump is coming thru for Putin with checking off the wishlist almost as ordered.

barbee3579.bsky.social•21 days ago

Not at all…😒

paramutual.bsky.social•21 days ago

Is there a source for this that’s better than daily fail?

karstensimmonds.bsky.social•21 days ago

Honestly, that's not unusual. NATO spent countless hrs. shadowing such flights for decades.
However, it's somewhat surprising that they are able to launch two Bears at the same time.

thanatosredux.bsky.social•21 days ago

They had to strip 10 other aircraft to get 2 up

mayasteward.bsky.social•21 days ago

We won't to have to worry about going to war with Russia over Alaska. Trump will just hand it to him. And to keep peace with Xi Trump will give him all our Pacific Territories & Hawaii to boot.

nwowl.bsky.social•21 days ago

Scary as hell.

bangersmash.bsky.social•21 days ago

I hope they tightened the nut & bolts & scraped the rust off of them from Bovine urine. These planes in their down time are probably used to transport cattle.

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

They were used as an effective deterrent during the cold war. The Tupolev 95 is an outstanding piece of engineering, a platform able to move multiple weapons systems including all nuclear.
This is easily comparable to the B-52.

bangersmash.bsky.social•21 days ago

Cold War? They’re pretty old rust buckets aren’t they. Hope they have enough North Koreans to fly them.

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

They are the same age as the B-52s. Not old buckets but the backbone of Russian Air Force bombers, and well deserved pride. Outstanding aircraft.

bangersmash.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yea just don’t look at them closely son.

grady3131.bsky.social•21 days ago

Also unrelated is the Sovereign Wealth Fund creation the day before he announces we are taking over a region of the Middle East where a pipeline and canal could be constructed.

blondthndrninja.bsky.social•21 days ago

I’m sure it’s nothing for the British to worry about Right?? Right??

dragonat60.bsky.social•21 days ago

In RAF Coningsby they call that "Tuesday".
Its so commonplace that they built that airbase just for that reason.

sallyb33755.bsky.social•21 days ago

Testing. Testing.
It's only a test.

Until it isn't.

rileywest.bsky.social•21 days ago

All the MAGA voters who were worried Kamala's warmongering ways might ignite nuclear conflagration must be relieved by their choices... 🤦‍♀️

ltmitchell.bsky.social•21 days ago

It was never about the wars it was always about the pronouns.

geopru.bsky.social•21 days ago

It's a show of force. Unfortunately, Putin knows maga trump will not stand up to him. Putin just has to tell maga trump it wasn't Russia and he'll believe him.

enigma8750.bsky.social•21 days ago

SHOOT THEM OUT OF THE SKY.

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

On what grounds? Flying in international airspace? What do you think would happen then?

enigma8750.bsky.social•21 days ago

They are just showing off their plane. They washed it clean.

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

I don't think you fully understand the capability of that aircraft.

enigma8750.bsky.social•21 days ago

Well I understand the B-52 and I understand it's capabilities

thenewyorkdemocrat.bsky.social•21 days ago

Putin wouldn't dare pull that shit on Biden's watch

cnsparks17.bsky.social•21 days ago

Putin can't even get his Trump puppet to work right.

dragonat60.bsky.social•21 days ago

RAF Coningsby is there just for this reason, sometimes more than once a day, the ruskies try to probe the RAF defences.

In return, we send Rivet Joint's across to the black see to gather electronic evidence of what is going on there.

crankboy1965.bsky.social•21 days ago

If my windows in Leeds haven't been rattled I'm not worried...if they mean it the rapid response flight go super sonic over Yorkshire.

seafodder.bsky.social•21 days ago

Nothing like flying around in an aircraft that entered service in 1952 to “intimidate” people…

molochchild.bsky.social•21 days ago

The Bear didn't just enter service to "intimidate". It's a highly capable aircraft. The design is still applicable 70 years later, it's an amazing engineering, and is at least as capable as the B-52, that entered service in 1955, and also still flies in service.

justnobody.bsky.social•21 days ago

Yep. And the aircraft itself is just a truck which only purpose is to bring rockets into the shooting range.

saclawyer.bsky.social•21 days ago

Totally. 🙈🙉🙊

cairistionaaoidh.bsky.social•21 days ago

Hes sandwiched right now ...think shout it !

gototown.bsky.social•21 days ago

The media is not covering that Trump gave Ukraine everything it needs to take out Russia in exchange for the right to mine their precious minerals. Trump isn't doing Russia's bidding, but Bibi's, which makes sense considering he's working for the Christian Nationalists.
