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.

Nicely done on missing the conduit coming down the wall though.

Task failed succesfully

[–] Cylusthevirus@kbin.social 42 points 9 months ago (1 children)

For some reason all I can see while looking this is the absolute mountain of paperwork it must have created.

[–] FinalRemix@lemmy.world 25 points 9 months ago (1 children)

If it's anything like signing in unused ammo, it would've been easier if he blew up the garage rather than just hit it.

Don't give them ideas

Ayyyy, did something similiar with forklift once! Gate was on the other side of the building tho.

This is why you always use a ground guide when moving a track vehicle in the motor pool.

[–] notabot@lemm.ee 22 points 9 months ago (3 children)

I'm not normally one to ask the obvious questions, but how? What actually happened, do you have the story behind this?

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 21 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I've bumped things with a kayak on the roof of my car before, because the boat overhangs the vehicle.

Given how long the barrel is, I can see how this might happen. Or they were in the wrong gear.

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago

That's what I'm betting too, the driver was asked to put it to the side so something esle could access the garage but they forgot that the cannon extends much further out than the rest of the tank.

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Tanks don't exactly have spacious windows.

Oh sorry, in the US it's classified as a light truck.

This is barely heavier than a bicycle!

Only if you mean your mom.

Self-propelled howitzer, looks like a french AMX AuF1, uses the chassis of the AMX-30 tank.

[–] Vegoon@feddit.de 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

but how?

I doubt its real. Look at the hole and the angle of the barrel. You would have to start with a lowered barrel and raise it while you drive trough to keep that hole so small.

[–] NoSpotOfGround@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

It might have started with a lowered barrel and there might be a hidden girder under the barrel which raised the whole tank up as the barrel slid forward over that girder. The tank does look like it's leaning back on its suspension.

It’s just a little hole. Should be easy to patch.

[–] betz24@lemmynsfw.com 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

🤔. If he was driving towards the wall, there would be a larger hole starting from where the top of the gun barrel is. To get such a small hole in the wall as shown in the picture, the driver would have to intentionally articulate the barrels so it enters through the wall at the same position. This doesn't seem likely though, given the angle and position of the gun.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 28 points 9 months ago (1 children)

More likely the gun tilted up as it went in by itself.

[–] nilloc@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 9 months ago

Probably even more so as the tank leaned forward when stopping. I’m also impressed by how clean a hole it made. That’s a good wall there.

[–] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago

You missed the entrance so you created one of your own. That is a mindset to live by, son!

That's an innovative crash test regime
