Ukrainian Ma Deuce Lays Down Fire
Published 5 months ago
More than a century after its first appearance, the Browning M2 .50 caliber machine gun proves it is relevant on the modern battlefield. Ukrainian troops of the Omega Group manhandle the beast into a supplemental firing position, perhaps to counter a Russian attempt to flank their position. The gunner fires, reloads, and continues to blaze away through the underbrush. Eventually the squad withdraws to a secure area before loading into an MRAP.
