Russian Assault Begins with Line Charge and Ends with Misery
Published 9 months ago
A Russian offensive begins with UR-77 line charges, a device which uses a rocket to send a line of explosives along an anticipated path to clear mines and wire obstacles. A Russian tank charges into the breach and becomes mired and rendered immobile. The accompanying infantry huddle in a nearby trench, serving as attractive targets for drone-dropped munitions. The tank, still mired, suffers the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune or, in this case, multiple drone strikes. It soon begins to smolder and eventually erupts in smoke and flame. The surviving infantry take this cue and exit stage left.
