Russia Sends Brand-Spanking New Su-34

The Su-34 first flew in 1990. It's comparable to the F-15 that we developed in the 1970s. Except it's not nearly as capable.

Meanwhile in that time Russia has built -- checks notes -- 165 of them!!!! But certainly its vaunted 5th generation Su-57 is filling the skies? Right? This 30 year development program has yielded how many operational fighters? 15? 20? That includes the testing models, the trainers, and the ones that have crashed!

Meanwhile in that same time we have produced:

1200 F-15s
3400 F-16s
220 F-22s
1400 F-35

Over 6000 operational multi role fighter bombers. Every single one of which is superior to anything the Russians have churned out in embarrassingly small numbers.

Do you know what happened the last time the ole Soviets tried to keep up with the US in an arms race? They went bankrupt, their system collapsed, and they ceased to exist as a country.

Back then they were about 12% of the world's GDP. Now they're about 2%. But you think they can pull it off this time?

You don't even believe that bullshite yourself. You're not gonna get anyone else to believe it either.

They went bankrupt


We are 37 Trillion in debt and are already bankrupt. The only reason we have not collapsed yet is because we are the World's reserve currency but that is changing with alternatives being formed and trust is lost in the Dollar. Regardless my post had nothing to do with claiming Russia could win a arms race with us. It had to do with what the post stated.

NAFO Trolls claiming Russia can no longer build military equipment because they are bankrupt and their supply chains have been destroyed. Which is clearly not accurate. Since 2023 we were told Russia is on the verge of bankruptcy every month

I saw something on CNN earlier when I walked past a TV that Russia was claiming to be making big pushes today in several places on the front.

Thought there'd be something about it here...

I guess they've learned that press releases about non-existent gains are the same as actual gains in the cable news era.

All I really saw looking briefly was this...

Auto-translated from Ukrainian by Grok
Over the past day (15.09.2025), the enemy on all fronts approximately lost:

personnel ? 910
combat armored vehicles ?? 5
artillery systems ?? 26
MLRS ?? 2
motor vehicles and tankers ?? 72

On Monday, the number of combat engagements was at the level of the previous day.

Jesus, Barron, you really are a shill. I keep hoping you’re just confused, or perhaps an alcoholic, but no, you’re a shill.

BRING ME OVER BARRON. I CAN BE MORE SUBTLE AND SELL IT BETTER THAN YOU CAN.

You need me, Barron. Your bosses need me. I’ll be expensive , but I’m worth it.

Think about it.

7 killed, 49 injured in Russian attacks on Ukraine over past day

September 16, 2025 11:56 am

At least seven civilians were killed and 49 were injured in Russian attacks across Ukraine over the past 24 hours, regional authorities reported on Sept. 16.

Ukraine's Air Force said Russian forces launched 113 Shahed-type attack and decoy drones overnight. Air defenses intercepted 89 drones, but 22 drones struck six locations.

Russian attacks in the war-torn eastern Donetsk Oblast resulted in one death — in Kostiantynivka — and injured 14 others, according to Governor Vadym Filashkin.

Two people were killed and 14 more injured, including two children, in Russian attacks on Zaporizhzhia Oblast, said Governor Ivan Fedorov. The strikes damaged 10 apartment buildings.

In Sumy Oblast, Russia injured nine people in its attacks, according to local authorities.

In Kharkiv Oblast, Russian strikes killed one more person and injured five as the Russian military attacked 12 villages in the region, said Governor Oleh Syniehubov.

Russian attacks in Kherson Oblast killed two people and injured six more, Governor Oleksandr Prokudin said. Russian troops damaged two apartment buildings and 17 houses.

In Mykolaiv Oblast, a Russian attack drone struck a farm, killing a 58-year-old man, according to Governor Vitalii Kim.

In Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Russian attacks injured a 41-year-old man and destroyed two houses, said Governor Serhii Lysak.

In Kyiv Oblast, Russian forces launched a double-tap attack against a shopping center's parking lot, damaging two fire trucks as emergency services were working on site. No casualties were reported.

A logistics center of the Epicenter hypermarket chain was damaged during the attacks in the region, the company said, reporting a fire but no casualties.

The entire war is a war crime.

The Russian state is a criminal enterprise that believes it can take whatever it wants.

People like JB are just instruments of the enterprise. They help create fake excuses for their crimes.

There will be a judgment day and these people will have to pay for all the innocent men, women and children that Russia has killed. Hundreds of thousands of dead on both sides because they wanted Ukraine back. Pure evil.

This thread makes a lot more sense when you've dealt with a few of them for a while and realize that they have personal connections to Ukraine. Its an emotional issue for them.

Russia is the bad guy. Unequivocally.

They also had very real reasons for doing what they did. That doesn't justify it at all... we had a troon assassinate someone for "reasons" just in the past week.

Ukraine is unequivocally the good guy here. They also aren't some angel themselves. They also just aren't that important to US interests.

There was no justification for the invasion whatsoever. There is no justification for genocide, or kidnapping ten of thousand of children, or the slaughter of innocents.

Any statement to the contrary is horsesit.
