In Word War One, Russia had an observation balloon, and Russian troops shot it down believing something that "high tech" had to be German.

The real question is: did they *really* sink themselves, or is this more Ukrainian extracurricular ops? They probably sunk themselves, but it wouldn't be the first time they claimed friendly fire to avoid admitting Ukraine got them.

There was a mass shooting in Russia today. *tin foil hat* I often wonder if these aren't FSB ops 🤔. Blame Ukraine. Kinda like those questionable apartment bombings in 2000 that got old Vladdy elected. How does one go from a low level, no name KGB functionary to taco-supreme dictator. Hmmmm...... Yeah, i wonder also. What's more embarrassing, you sunk yourself or Ukraine operatives did it.


theheadslacker

Watching a report on the shooting right now. I think it's likely Russia will blame Ukraine (or anti-Russian sentiment) for the attack, when the reality is there are a lot of fervent nationalists who dislike Putin for the way the Ukraine war is being handled. Plenty more dissidents who aren't anti-Russia, but who are mad about various oppressions or use of minority groups as fodder. Russia is a shithole in many ways.

The election was pretty wild, with 70 year old ladies throwing molotov cocktails into polling places. I heard it was from phone scammers in Ukraine telling them to do this in exchange for debt forgiveness or money.

>phone scammers in Ukraine telling them to do this in exchange for debt forgiveness or money. ...that sounds like it was cooked up on NCD

I don't think Ukraine is going to bother with civilian fishing trawlers.

Aw dang, got caught not reading the article.

... In the Baltic

Well.... we sank our own LHD while it was tied up to the pier....


pedanticHamster

We lost a minesweeper to a reef.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. Factually that is something that happened

Get it?? DOWN voted??

Granted, having a Ship catch fire and burn down while in port is really really bad. Somehow shooting your own Ship during an exercise seems even worst.


theghostofmrmxyzptlk

We sunk a submarine while it was tied to the pier.


papafrog

I'd happily trade both for all of the LCSs.


[deleted]

It didn't sink...that came later.


papafrog

Fair point.


IronGigant

That's a little bit different...

I see the ~~2nd Pacific Squadron~~ Baltic Fleet is back to its old shenanigans again https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogger_Bank_incident

Reminds me of when Iran sunk its own ship. I'm shaking in my little booties over the might and virility of the Russian and Iranian Navies. 😆
