Wow, Then the guy who almost got shot grabs the hot barrel
I imagine his brain wasn't working at 100% after nearly becoming a puddle.
He's in the Russian military; his brain hasn't been working at 100% for a long time, maybe ever.
Hey, he figured out that he needed to duck in the required amount of time. So - half credit?
Was this designed by Russia's finest minds? I like the part where the gun is seemingly intentionally cantilevered out from the rotational pivot point by like a foot in order to make this kind of recoil inevitable. That sort of attention to detail must have been intended to make the gun incredibly accurate and a true joy to shoot. It's also impressive how long it continues firing after the operator becomes airborne and seems to even continue for a few frames after he has been flung into the bushes, knowing the poor trigger discipline of the average Russian conscript this is probably also intentional and seems like a reasonable design compromise.
We are very lucky they are so fucking stupid.
I like how the shoulder braces are right-angles
He missed.
What air defence doing?
Got a link to the video?
yep right in the link but I just tested on iphone and it didn't work

Thanks, worked for me on Android.
Good job ducking by that guy on the left. The guy getting yeeted looked like a scene from Starship Troopers just without a giant bug.
Thanks, and lol

Rules:
-
No sympathy with the enemy or its collaborators. Russian and North Korean soldiers are fascists committing a genocide. Remember that.
-
Objective and factual reporting from the battlefield, parliaments, etc. is encouraged, even if it's about bad news for Ukraine.
-
Insulting Putin and his cronies (Orban, Trump, Musk,...) is absolutely fine but don't use homophobic or similar language against them. Members of the queer community don't deserve to be compared to that scum. Also: Putin disciminates against gay people. If you do as well, you're part of the problem.
-
Don't insult or use overly harsh language against other commentators.

Don't submit direct links to Twitter/X and Truth Social posts. You may: Post a screenshot + quote, do a full quote and name the author, direct link to a proxy service like xcancel.com, deep link an image embedded in a tweet because Lemmy will cache a copy.
