[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It looks like China was over-exposed to the Ruble, but Saudi Arabia is coming to Russia's economic rescue?

The Ukrainians need vulcan cannons (either A-10's, tow mount, or the old M113-mounted M163 vulcan cannons used back in the day with Chaparral units).  Although their anti-air range is about 1 km, they're actually better in a ground-support role to take out defenses and gun emplacements (3 to 4.5 km).

That would make quick work of Russan ground defenses and drones.  Before the Army converted from Heavy Mechanized Brigades to Light (Counter-Insurgency), these were designed for tank-combat scenarios.  Vulcan's are devastating to ground defenses, even though their primary mission is short-range air defense.  The Russian Army would have no choice but to throw everything they have to stop them (tanks, aircraft, etc.) making them vulnerable to counter-attack.[/quote]

What exactly is the link between oil prices and vulcan cannons?  Is there a story somewhere there?[/quote]

Yes.  If you haven't figured it out yet, AI bot's can't react to mismatched stories!  [/quote]

I think your fear of these is a bit misplaced. [/quote]

lol.  Hope you're right, but I'm not a gambler.[/quote]
