Planes

Are planes the horse archers of our time? Those third world armies they bomb to shreds just seem incapable of putting up air defenses. Planes also seem to operate in a hit-and-run fashion.

planes are the knights of our time

Wouldn’t that be shock divisions?

Modern infantry doesnt have shock troops

What is the S400?

Why do you think America stopped bombing Syria in 2015?

Yes. Medieval warfare is directly translatable to modern warfare because it revolves around the same basic principles, humans managing different weapons systems while avoiding the enemy's, the scale has just increased in response to firepower and range. What would once be a formidable siege weapon is now used to pepper half a dozen enemy soldiers scattered and concealed in some vague area.

spear militia = niggers with ak47s
pikemen = trained infantry
armored heavy infantry = mechanized troops and tanks
crossbows = mortars and recoilless rifles
ballista and field cannon = artillery and close air support
trebuchets and siege cannons = bomber, fighter-bombers, cruise missiles

Syria is just a client state of Russia, they were/are on Russian life support. Wouldn’t call the Russian military third world(queue memes mocking this)

i'd say that the toyota hilux is the horse archer of modern time
>fast
>reliable
>expendable
>long range firepower

The horse archer of our time is a destroyer with a railgun.

Syria is an independent sovereign nation, friends with Russia.

Stay mad my Amerimutt friend.

No, technicals are.

On lifesupport, practically a protectorate
Also not from clapistan

From NATO media propaganda sphere for sure though.

The US was bombing Syria all through 2016 and 2017 though...

Hell, dozens, perhaps hundreds of Russian nationals got raped by US air forces just last month when they made the mistake of trying to grab an oil field in the US zone.

Independent soverign rump state you mean.

Also, if by independent you mean wholly dependant on Iran, Russia, and Hezbollah for manpower and resources.

all besides the point. Syria didn’t get those air defenses from the bargain bin, they were given by Russia

The real cheat in modern warfare are autonomous rockets like the Tomahawk. They are relatively cheap to build, you don't risk the life of a highly trained pilot, hit with amazing precision, and have a range big enough so that you can shoot most targets from sea. Basically, park your navy in front of the coast of the country you want to invade, spam Tomahawks until all the enemy infrastructure is down, then move in with your real army. This strategy is only doable by the US because it can outmuscle anyone when it comes to spending on warfare, so yeah, it really is a cheat.

Tomahawks can take out the S400.

>relatively cheap to build
>outmuscle anyone when it comes to spending on warfare
Money is the cheat, but that was always true.

To be fair though, to have cruise missiles to be as reliable and precise as american cruise missiles are you need a lot of satellites who are guiding them and high-tech economy capable of mass producing them. So yeah, it's not "only" money. Saudi-Arabia for example couldn't do that on their own, despite having lots of money. They would need to buy them from the US, and ask the americans to let them use their satellites.

And? Allies help each other out.

Russia gets to stabilize and ease the situation, as well as keeping their naval base protected.

Syria gets to not turn into a terrorist-ran militant shithole like Libya did.

You sound like a butthurt NATO zombie, upset that Syria did not fall to your destabilization campaign, even when arming death squads and sending them to Syria to kill innocent civilians and assassinate policemen.

Ghouta liberated soon. America's tears will be delicious.

>wholly
The SAA is still doing the most work on the ground, I don't know what you're talking about.
Hezbollah and RuAF support are just cherries on top.

The manpower comes from Syrians, who are defending their country from Western-backed foreign terrorists.

>Military force is only used against weak countries!!!!!!!!

People always act like this is some kind of profound revelation, but it has always been like that. Nobody declares war unless they think they are going to win, or they don't see any other option.

If the NATO wanted to take Assad out, they could do so in a blink of an eye. Russia would sit there doing nothing because there really isn't anything they could do to safe them, except launch a nuclear strike against the west, which they wouldn't do for some shitty tiny naval base they never use. The reason the NATO didn't take out Assad is because Iran would have abandoned the nuclear deal if they did.

>this is what brainwashed amerimutt neo-cons actually believe

He's not a neocon, just some retarded leftist.

Even neocons at this point realize Russia/Syria are the good guy in this conflict.

>Vietnam was a tactical retreat

>"Out of all vehicles, only one tank survived and one BRDM [armored reconnaissance vehicle] after the attack, all other BRDMs and tanks were destroyed in the first minutes of the fight, right away."


>"Just had a call with a guy — so they basically formed a convoy, but did not get to their f--- positions by some 300 meters. One unit moved forward, the convoy remained in place, about 300 meters from the others. The others raised the American f--- flag, and their artillery started f--- ours really hard. Then their f--- choppers flew in and started f--- everybody. Ours just running around. Just got a call from a pal, so there are about 215 f--- killed. They simply rolled ours out f--- hard.

/thread

Semites still love using horse archers, nothing has changed.

It's not about who is the good guy. All russian logistics is going through their navy stationed in the mediterranean. The NATO obviously holds the superiority by a huge margin in the mediterranean, as they do in all seas. If they wanted to, a simply blockade would be enough to stop russian help to Assad. Except threatening with nuclear retaliation, there is not much russia could do to break that blockade.

Vietnam failed because the US wanted to take the regime out with their own ground troops. Assad would be more like Libya, where the NATO bombed the rebels their way to the capital.

How many IS convoys have you bombed?
How many sappers and doctors have you sent to Aleppo?
How many terrorists have you killed in total?
How many times have you sought for a political solution?

That's what I thought.

There is no pre modern equivalent of planes.

Planes changed warfare forever by adding a 3rd dimension.

Thousands of years of warfare where troops didn't have to worry about being randomly exploded from the sky until now, even artillery isn't the same as you have to be in its area but planes can hit you hundreds of miles from the front line.

>planes are the knights of our time

>Not privately owned by their pilots.
>Not upheld by a feudal structure of a pilot's fiefdom supporting him to maintain his aircraft, weapons, and status as a military pilot.

itt: assblasted americans upset that Syria is winning and Obama's precious terrorists are losing

Ghouta liberated soon boys

that would be awesome

just wait until we descend into technofeudalism

U.S. aircraft would be falling from the sky every hour by S-400s.

This is the future

There is not much a S-400 is going to do when 50 Tomahawks are flying towards it. The S-400 costs 1 billion, a Tomahawk 1 million. so 50 million to take out a 1 billion anti-aircraft system.

IS is gone and America controls everything east of the Euphrates while Russia can't even win the Damascus suburbs despite using pussy Spetsnaz fake special ops and bombing little kids.

>IS gone
Thanks to Russia and the Syrian Arab Army.

>America controls everything east of the Euphrates
Yes, you raced for the oil fields the moment the SAA went to lift the siege at Deir Ez-Zor like a bunch of greedy scumbags.

You also let IS convoys pass through to Iraq, you transported IS/CIA commanders in unmarked black helicopters around. Despite all that arming and funding of radical terrorists, your precious Jihadi death squad has been destroyed and is now irrelevant.

The Turks have complicated things for you now, because you've thrown the Kurds under the bus (don't want to start shit with the Turks) and so the U.S. has lost any respect it had left in the ME, by literally everyone. You're known as backstabbers and terrorist supporters. The local Arab populations in the east don't support the Communist Kurd and Amerimutt occupation forces either, so it's just a matter of time until that yellow turns red and goes back to the rightful ownership of the Syrian Republic.

The U.S. has no control over the political future of Syria, everyone is moving into relationship with Russia. The U.S. is largely irrelevant. All your proxy forces have failed and are defeated (FSA, AQ, IS, YPG).

>can't even win the Damascus suburbs
I don't know if you've been paying attention, but Ghouta is being liberated as we speak, and so will Daraa. These are basically just mopping up operations, there is no resistance left. Terrorists are either dead or have accepted amnesty and laid down their weapons.

The only real battlefield left is Idlib, and that will be a peace of cake considering the Jihadi mudslimes there are fighting eachother.

>bombing little kids
Lies =/= Reality
Are you mad that no one buys into your CNN/BBC/Fox narrative anymore?

America lost in Syria, get over it.

>America continues to fly all over Syria
Doing absolutely nothing.

Russia meanwhile is actually conducting air strikes and killing scores of mudslime head choppers while winning actual hearts & minds on the ground. Syrians love Russia.

>they were given by Russia
They were installed to protect the russian naval base, Syria has no control over these systems.

It's still a pretty close analogy.

Multirole and fighter aircraft often have the callsign of their pilot painted on them, and an entire crew to repair, refuel and service them.

There's no mention of IS here, and contrary to what your jew puppets would like you to believe there is no 'moderate opposition' in Syria, other than Assad himself. Islamists in Idlib are just that, islamist terrorists, there is nothing wrong about this statement.

I'd rather keep posting because it seems to make you butthurt.

>white helmets are peaceful and not linked to AQ!
>oh no, the last hospital in [insert city being liberated]

all of which have been proven wrong and debunked. propaganda for the masses. everytime the SAA makes significant gains there's a convenient "chemical attack" allegation. the terrorists know the only way out is if they get U.S. support through air strikes, and so they like to use chemical gas on civilians and then blame it on syrian troops. heck they even filmed themselves showing off their chemical weapons, and the SAA has found staches of chemical weapons whenever they take a terrorist stronghold.

americans are delusional and easily lied to

Kurds aren't opposition, dumb ass.

They're opportunist land grabbers who struck a mutually beneficial deal/alliance with Syria because the terrorists are more of a threat.

The Kurds are now being backstabbed by their U.S. handlers and thrown under the bus.

By this retarded logic any source that refers to the Union army must be biased against the North... Or maybe, just maybe, it's common practice to denote two sides in a civil war and has been done in journalism and history since St least the English Civil war.
