So the epic lid flip was self-inflicted. Impressive.

I came to make fun of the mistake on the title, but I see it was 100% correct.

Good job Russia.

can these missiles even lock onto small drones...

[–] LaFinlandia@sopuli.xyz 14 points 1 month ago

Not very well.

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

it didn't look so small. more like a cruise missile

The ManPad just got a little confused. Giant tank of gasoline or little drone moving at high speed look identical.

My guess is the drone flying toward the smoke from the fire completely masked it's signature to the trailing ManPad. The ManPad went looking for another faint heat signature and found the tank.

Is that Chinese being spoken in that first video?

[–] LaFinlandia@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 month ago

Yes, the video was first posted on Douyin (Chinese TikTok).

What language is being spoken?

[–] Cliff@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

Sounds chinese to me. But i am far away from being an expert.
