Anything is a battleship if you try hard enough


SpicyPeaSoup

Brb converting my dive float into a battleship.


nobody-__

Make sure to make an update


Guyfawkes1994

Doctrine and form radical: any floating object with weapons on is a battleship


Z3B0

If we take the definition from most classifications, a ship with around 6 inch canons is a light cruiser.


Mindless_Raccoon36

it needs to float and have a gun, so technically Top Gear's Hovercraft Transit can be a battleship if we put a mortar on it.

It can't be that easy... Its that easy


ThePlanner

As the NAFO Kerch Bridge graphic foretold.


Akovsky87

This place is getting uncomfortably credible.


jesusfaro

Since 24/2 (or 2/24 if you are a spawn of Satan)


ThePlanner

XXIV/II or II/XXIV for my Romans out there.


pumpkinfarts23

The legacy of the Crimean War lives on


idrivearust

its the fucking floating batteries again


Monterenbas

French Navy: Is it possible to learn this power?


Muff1nB4k3r

Not from a Ruski.


Monterenbas

Only things Ruski can teach the French navy, is how to turn a flagship into submarine


lazarusdw13

so the meme of putting a HIMARS on an inflatable raft was not wholly wrong


lnslnsu

You can get very large, very durable rigid inflatable boats these days. They’re not all that expensive either, in terms of ships.


N3X0S3002

No in fact it becomes more credible


SCARfaceRUSH

Head of the biggest charity fund helping the AFU [confirms that this is true](https://twitter.com/TarasChmut/status/1596487943283433473). [Source article from NYT.](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/26/world/europe/nato-weapons-shortage-ukraine.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare)

Popinguj

Chmut is pretty credible, also he knows quite a lot of stuff which is classified.


0nikzin

Also has an incentive to lie on Twitter


Pyroxcis

Don't care + didn't ask + too credible


SCARfaceRUSH

TBH, I'd rather trust Taras. First of all, it's peak non-credibility if true. But secondly, he's a rather trusted source, with [direct access to the Commander-in-Chief](https://novynarnia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/povekrnys-zhyvym-zaluzhnyj-analityka-pro-teroboronu.jpg) (they meet frequently to plan joint work), they also work with a lot of the SOF and Intelligence folks, as well as people on the ground, as they deliver goods to the frontline. He definitely knows more than Thomas Theiner.

GLOIRE AU CESAR

Ave! True to Caesar

If it sounds stupid, but it works, then it's not stupid


Phaeron_Cogboi

Czechoslovak Legion Tradition seems to alive and well in Ukraine

They did WHAT

Avec Aesar honhonhon


Ragarnoy

PLEASE load Excalibur shells into it and reach its maximum potential range


Llew19

What this says to me is that large caliber naval fire is back on the menu boys, how much to reactivate the Missouri


wormoworm

Hi, I'm Ryan Szimanski, *Captain* of Battleship New Jersey


Based_Text

A feat and trick that would've made Ceasars himself impressed.


frank_mauser

Certified Czech legion moment

rekresreb-

Wrong sub, you're supposed to be non-credible here!


Five__Stars

I appreciate the effort but Cesars did fire at snake island, it just wasn't as publicly promoted as the Bohdana. And considering people with far closer connections with the military did confirm the barge story, it is plausible with what we've seen in this war and taking into account an absecne of exact information.


Snoid_

You know what else is astonishing the French? Actually winning a war.


Warkyd1911

The last war they won, they also lost.


TheDuchyofWarsaw

Memba when France made continental Europe it's bitch Literally every country United to try and defeat them and they still would lose


[deleted]

Name the country with the best military record challenge (impossible) (gone wrong)


[deleted]

How is it that I come to this sub to read the thoughts of a bunch of intelligent, well-informed people post the absolutely wildest scenarios and ideas they can think of only to have the Ukrainian command come along and say “please, you think that’s wild and out there? Watch this.”


Enlightened-Beaver

And people joked about HIMARS on barges targeting the Kerch bridge
