POTD: RPG-7s in Murmansk
Flying rockets, fire and Kalashnikovs – we must be in Russia! TFB has been running the Photo Of The Day for years, sharing great photos from around the world and the world of firearms onto the doorstep of the screen you’re looking at right now, and we hope you enjoy it.
Here is the caption for today’s photos:
Scouts of the motorized rifle brigade of the Northern Fleet in the Murmansk region are preparing for the contest “Excellent military intelligence”, working out the main elements of the competition
Motorized rifles act in deep snow and at low temperatures characteristic of the Far North.
The trainings are organized in stages: military intelligence officers will have to consolidate their skills in firing all types of standard weapons, driving military equipment over rough terrain, landing, tactical camouflage and special tasks.

If rusky makes the big mistake in Ukraine; like is a cake walk. Then let them feel the pain of the Javelin and 🐝. Cost in lives and treasure will be high.
What a brain dead way of advancing the Soviet cause. Why give them ANY webtime?
