I wonder when the FOAB will start dropping in Ukraine

>>57967644 (OP)

But fo now, russian MOD has limited itself with the Belgorod region.

>>57967644 (OP)

you literally need a huge plane to be able to drop that

so..... a plane has to actually fly over the target in ukraine and drop it

yeah good luck

Ukraine is running out of Its S-300 and BUK which composed the bulk of Its IADS whilst they haven't received enough western SAMs to replace them. So we might soon start seeing the larger Russian bombers start entering Ukrainian airspace

In about a fortnight?

meh, as soon as there is signs of russia actually trying something with bombers, the west will reveal that it has been training ukrainian fighter pilots for years now and the planes are ready to go

>>57967644 (OP)

Me too. Because that means the Russian Air Force somehow grows balls and dared to send a Tu-160 on top of an Ukrainian target instead of slinging cruise missile from Russian Airspace.

Wouldn't it be fun seeing the possibility of S300 shooting down a Tu 160?

The FOAB is a meme. 

>Be USA

>Make the MOAB

>Record it and publish data

>Suddenly Russia appears

>'Makes' the FOAB

>Doesn't record it

>publishes data that means it is superior to MOAB in all ways

The fact they've done this multiple times (maybe even dozens) throughout the last 30 years is hilarious.

>Be USA

>Said you've developed a self-aiming sniper round

>say it has a 3km range

>Russia appears

>Says it too has a self-aiming sniper round

>But it has 5km range!



>Be USA

>Say you got a new SPG coming out (M1299)

>Says it has like 40km range

>Suddenly Russia appears

>Says it has a new SPG coming out that hit a target 50km (or was it 60kM?) away

>Again, no images, no data, just 'yeah it was better'



>Be USA

>Have HIMARS

>Russia appears

>Releases data sheet proving the superiority of t he SMERCH by mentioning more wheels is better



Like if I was sure it wasn't just macho man attitude Russia uses to impress their public and scare their neighbours I would say that the Russian MIC is literally a western front to scare USA into making better shit.

>>57967644 (OP)

why does it have foreskin?

It's literally just a large thermobaric bomb, there's no secret on how to build a MOAB/FOAB. The difficult part is to have a bomber large enough to carry one and drop it on the enemy

>>57967644 (OP)

I wonder how many do they have, if they have to resort to using S-400 rockets as ground-to-ground weapons.

I know. I am merely stating that everything Russia has/claims to has is a 'one up' of what USA has. Therefore chances are Russia doesn't have a stockpile of FOAB, if they even had one in the first place. Getting some guys to guess the numbers and say 'yep we totally did it' is much cheaper than actually doing it.

Meh, given the leaks were montgs old and even by declared gear Ukies have way more AA now, pretty sure that's already solved even without planes.

>>57967644 (OP)

I wish the US had M-121 bombs left in storage.

Whoever invents a machine that gives self awareness to russians and other thirdies will solve most of the worlds problems

about 2 weeks after it starts existing
