I’m so fucking done with the west leading Ukraine on and giving them a bone when the front is at a breaking point. It’s clear that if Ukraine wants to win this war, it won’t be on the west’s terms. They are in a position where they can only rely on themselves.
This nonsense of a drop of aid after irreplaceable casualties/losses isn’t sustainable.

The afghans defeated the Soviet union and the united states. I dont see them becoming a superpower any time soon…
The north Koreans are so poor all the medals are probably steel.
As a woodworker, I’d do the same. Granted it would be a piece of wood with matching dimensions to the foot, but still just a piece of wood.
It takes a huge amount of industry to produce firearms, not just the precision in machining, precision of alloys used, heat treatment of steels, supply lines, etc. Missing one of these vital attributes will lead to, at best, an unreliable weapon, or at worst, something that will explode and potentially kill the user.
As Ukraine is the poorest country in Europe fighting the largest European war since WW2, anything that can shoot accurately is precious, especially a big ass .50 with a very long range. As they say, its hard to hide from a .50
This is a DSHK .50" (roughly) caliber heavy machine gun, converted to an infantry support weapon. Typically these guns are mounted to a tripod or vehicle, but Ukraine has been converting these to infantry support weapons by adding a bipod, carry handle, shoulder stock, gigantic muzzle break(to make recoil bearable), new handle and new trigger assembly.
For anyone wondering, a DSHK heavy machine gun is 34kg or 75 pounds.
Here’s a video that discusses it in detail, and covers similar american prototype conversions with their equivalent heavy machine, the M2 Browning (38kg, 84lbs).

This is pretty funny and all but who the actual fuck watches videos like this? It’s just a car. Why do you need to show the blinker works? Why do you need to emphasize that it has a steering wheel?

God I fucking love those who are a gremlins of men
He seems a bit like a rascal but I think he’s just misunderstood.
I use a lot of Japanese woodworking tools and hearing Hitachi outside of the context of steel production is always so confusing. They make some of the finest steels in the world, to be forged into unparalleled blades by master craftsmen and they also make “marital aids”.
