A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

Is this the Russian equivalent of the Toyota Inshallah?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 9 months ago (1 children)

This joke would easily land you in Hague for how murderous it is.

I am not a signatory to the Geneva Convention.

You guys remember /r/shittytechnicals? Maybe we should start /r/shittyreactivearmor.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Lol they already have shitty ERA remember the posts from like a year ago about the ERA being replaced by cardboard or something lmao

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

I think it was rubber sheets.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Plywood I think

Give /c/NonCredibleDefense a go, not too active, but some real bangers when they come through.

It looks like an ai created it. Looks like a tank if you squint, but look closer and it’s just random bullshit layered over itself

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

Fake news comrade only the otherside makes Ai propaganda /s

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

It's a mirrored image of a line of MT-LBs with a crude pillbox on top, or ZU-23-2 AA guns on the back ones. I guess the pillbox is better than those awful turrets?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Future crematoriums / coffins.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 9 months ago (2 children)

The poor engineers getting yelled at for not producing enough tanks just decide to build from WW1 blueprints using sheet metal and a lada engine. Probably runs on vodka

[–] [email protected] 19 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Probably runs on vodka

That's the way to guarantee it would never have sufficient fuel.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

But it's also a way to guarantee that soldiers and technicians won't mind working on and with it. Just look at the Tu-22

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

It's an excuse to bring more vodka. "Da, commander. Running on vodka means the fuel will never freeze! ~because we'll drink it too fast~

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Put it in H!

[–] [email protected] 19 points 9 months ago

Not even worth the mines they're going to blow onto...

[–] [email protected] 16 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Is... is the thing in front a ... an MT-LB, with basically a bunch of random crap taped onto it, and because the turret doesnt turn, they took out the gun ... and built what i can only describe as the hobo version of a machine gun pit for a Dshk ... on top of it?

Good fucking god. Hobo-ified MTLB.

EDIT: Derp, I mean MT-LB, originally had a stroke and confused the btr 60 with that.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I think that's a few pallets strapped down with some roofing and filled with filler foam

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Don't you mean "reactive armor"?

(Lulz. It'll react to an RPG in the same way a sheet of paper reacts to a bullet.)

[–] [email protected] 15 points 9 months ago (1 children)

First one looks like a literal flakpanzer 1 with some makeshift scrap metal armor...

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Honestly, what IS under there?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Probably a BMP with a shitty technical gun.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Looks pretty narrow for a BMP though?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Hm, i mean the two other vehicles look like BMPs as well, so idk

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Fair point, the ones behind definitely are.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago

Cope vehicles.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago

They are future shrapnel.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

I believe they are grandpa's mobile bunker

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

These things were designed by Fred Flintstone
