Remember in video games when you shoot the red barrel and it explodes killing everything? Pretty much that, but in real life

Well, today Putin did put his general in charge of the first-wave “blitz” under house arrest for … “logistics planning failures.”

That's a nice truck tho. Ural?

All sharing the one truck that hasn't broken down yet. Finally, a benefit of the crappy workmanship Russia is so well known for.

The Russians have always been big on tank desant troops, but this is silly.
YetAnotherUserNameToRememberDangit
Yes, but usually not a fuel tank.

It’s a shame that so many good men fight and die in the field cause of political issues between a couple of idiots @ the top.

Who is the idiot on the Ukrainian side?

And btw, these are not good men.

I'd agree, they were given a chance to walk away and did not take it.

People who've never read anything about real wars think the Russian loss rate is high. If anything their logistical clusterfuck is

SylvesterMarcus
I have to believe that the average Russian soldier is thinking “what the F are we doing?” That doesn’t make for great combat effectiveness.
ftcooke10
Maybe invest in seat belts?
deaconshadow
I believe this is what is referred to as a “target rich environment”.
zeropercentperfection
As some one who has seen rush hour commute in India, I see nothing wrong this method of transportation.
endomorph
It's a fuel truck. Goes boom real easily and big.
WookieWookieWookie
How many javelins are flying around during the Indian commute?
weave
What do you mean this truck is unarmored, it has what we call private first class armor
dizzyturtle
I wonder why Ukraine is not using IEDs against these convoys. Is that just a middle eastern thing?
Contundo
why use IED when you can fire a Javelin form the relative safety of a km or two away.
dizzyturtle
I think IEDs would mess with their heads and the a lot of Russians would be like, 'Fuck this, I'm walking to Poland." Would also slow them.
RogueFerret
Because Ukraine has a proper military force equipped with actual weaponry. No need for an IED when you've got every boomtube in the world.

I would've hated to have ridden shotgun in that truck...
Gryphonosiris
Looks like the rocket hit the cab, killed the driver, but the guys in back were not injured.
NewToTheEnterwbs
Definitely concussed but alive . . . for now. Sucks to be those people running inside their home when the Russians crash right in front.
machmach
NEED MOAR FIRE POWAAAA!

This is what they can look forward to with any long-term occupation.

That is not an easy shot.

“Oh. My. God. Those Soldiers riding on the hood, sides, and tank of that fueler don’t have reflective belts OR eyepro!” -Some Sergeant Major

otherJeffsarefalseJeffs
Specifically diesel or domestic fuel oil. I’d guess it’s diesel, but given Russian logistics, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s heating oil.

In fire lingo, burning “solids” are called a class “A.” In navy jargon, a burning person is a “screaming alpha.”

all i see is cheap biological armor. They are replacable. Life have no value in russia aparently.
GreaseMonkeyOfLove
Just like ruble!
dogmatix
Plenty of value to most russians, just not to Putin.
Raileks
Truck has been upgraded with meat shields.
OmnipotentBeing
They shoot conscripts who retreat.
drdavessardogs
BINGO!
crimbo19
Are they riding a fuel truck? Aren’t those high priority targets?
Etlac
They're the outer layer of armor for the fuel tank.
MonsieurBon
It's actually a transport of industrial lube......because they're going to get fucked
procrastinatingagain
This made me laugh.
Radix865
Maybe the men are there as a shield for the truck?
phukerstone
they're padding so the truck can take a few extra hits.
Problemwoodchuck
Yes, and also yes. This is what defense experts call a bad idea in warzones.
BeingABotIsRad
What about offense experts?

Offense experts: "Hahaha, fuel truk go booom!"

I would classify this as lazy soldiers with poor leadership.
Bigemedic
Just poor leadership. Or none at all. But every soldier, in every nation, is lazy.
TheJewishSpaceLaser
They’re not lazy, they’re told what to do and they do it. It’s shit logistics is what it is.
dreikommavierzehn
maybe it's all the action promo videos they made over the years. Where they jump into cars through the window and such. Superhero-complex
HumtyFuckty
They know they have been sent to die
gaerte
Yeah. If you have the option to ride vs walk, I’ve never met a soldier who preferred walking.
Conz
Unmotivated and uninformed soldiers*
Dasnekones
They are literally out of vehicle options though
RedRatchet765
Yeah, this. Considering how much equipment they've had to leave behind, it makes sense they're piling onto whatever will move.
LieutenantCorporalFakename
I would classify this as "They're using a fucking dump truck as a troop transport."
Bigemedic
Beats walking (shrugs)
UndauntedCouch
Looks like it’s a fuel truck?
LieutenantCorporalFakename
Even worse! "Let's put our troops on top of a giant tank of flammable liquid! That'll go REALLY well when we get with a Javelin!"
amb1021
I wouldn't think they'd waste a Javelin on this. The various RPGs are much cheaper.
BenHobson
Somewhere in a military barracks, there is an officer tacking these pictures to a cork board labeled "What not to do, courtesy of Russia"
dreikommavierzehn
ah Russia, providing us with a basis for safety regulations since their conception. Always heard fun stories from audits over there
flarflarf
"lazy soldiers" you dont need to repeat youself
flarflarf
find me a soldier that isn't lazy and I'll find you a soldier that's up to something they shouldn't be.

My brother served and his motto was why do today if you can do it tomorrow. He also got kicked out the army for smoking pot.

I feel like the entire invasion consists of soldiers up to something they shouldn't be.

US military describing them as a Toyota Corolla of drones, does 80% of what you want, reliably, unlike that sportscar!
