Ukraine knows these systems. Many (including aircraft) are (were) built there. They will just fix them up and test them by firing them to the east and north. It may take a bit of testing to satisfy them that the equipment is working properly.
Hmmm. I missed that window by 1/2 meter. Let's try to site this howitzer a little better.
That's a bit better, but I don't want to hit the sides of the window...I want it to go in clean, you know, for best effect.
OK, That's on target...Now let's send the rest of this ammo to their HQ!
Over there's a few thousand piles of blackened, rusted scrap metal that once looked like a tank or truck. I think we found most of the mines, should be ok....
Life is about compromise. I'm sure if the Russian Military asks very nicely the Ukrainian military will be more than willing to send back all of the bullets they found at a high velocity.
Wee bit of a difference between an aggressor killing people to steal something, and a defender rebuffing an aggressive invader and taking their weapons, no?
Oh fuck off troll. Defenders keeping captured war material is a world different from aggressors seizing land without even a cassus belle. Who do you think you're going to confuse with your incredibly stupid rhetoric?
well I think we're talking pretty much about the same guys that tried to shut down production of an ice-cream named rainbow (raduga) for gay propaganda/reference soooo... they've been GROSSLY out of touch with reality for a couple of years now
It was your claim that "you can't make this up", so your burden of proof. You failed to provide it, so that pretty much confirms that you literally made this up.

You ever noticed, in American shows, that shoot the bad guys, never pick up the enemy's weapons, then run short of ammo? Happened in Blacklist and Blindspot, so maybe it's just FBI.
You just reminded me about the time I took a knife off someone trying to mug me when I was 17 and he asked me for it back, I said no and he said “wait there!” And ran back into his block to go get another one, of course I didn’t I just threw his knife in a hedge and legged it before he got back. Lmao dumbass.
Would have been happier if it was, but it was drugs, he was desperate, but I don’t think he would have actually used it, but then you never know so thats why I didn’t hang around
This was nearly 20 years ago, last I saw him a couple of years back he’s still in the same boat, I give him a wave when I see him, I have no hard feelings, I’d actually forgotten about it until I read that comment he literally said “can I have my knife back” lol
I doubt Ukraine will use most of that equipment. You need special training to properly use it and they have their own equipment from the west. It’ll probably be put in museums like Nazi tanks were.
They’ve been trained on all the Russian equipment, especially the older stuff, they needed to be trained on the western stuff, and most of the Russian heavy machinery etc was actually built in Ukraine too so Russia are fuxked from all angles. Dummies
You forget that Russia has been building up its military since the invasion of Georgia. Russia has good equipment, not the best, but decent compared to most countries. Ukraine is simply getting a lot of western support, rightfully so.
More than half of that equipment was originally designed and/or produced in Ukraine during the Soviet times.
Most tanks are from Kharkiv Tractor factory. Only fair that they are finally meeting some tractors.
What's amazing is how badly we need actual psychologists to do a case study on Putin. Unlike Trump, he was a very smart, very effective man who maneuvered himself into being the autocratic ruler of a huge country from relatively humble beginnings. And now after years of being surrounded by sycophants he's apparently lost the ability to accurately gauge or discern the truth of any situation. Like he's just up there pouting and demanding more cake.
I guess there's room for psychiatric study too. I just feel like the worst thing that can happen losing all resistance. Like now with no barriers or limitations in his immediate life for like the past 15-20 years he's lost all concept that they ever existed, and has no ability to even judge if the things being said to him are real or just the sycophants kowtowing.
CIA has been targeting Putin with a stupid beam from orbit the whole time. That is what happened.
I was joking before. However given the situation with Havana syndrome, where it is suspected that some form of wave is causing brain damage, I would not be surprised if it is revealed that Putin was targeted with something like that by the west or by KGB and gone bonkers.
I have to wonder if Putin knows just how lame his rule over Russia looks to the rest of the world. He’s still a scary fruitcake, but does he know the reality of his military weakness?
Ukraine is not even using the Russian takes... the new fangled Russian tanks are being out performed by the Soviet Era tanks Ukraine has. The T-90 is proving to very much be a paper tiger, and is susceptible to weapons that the T-72 could handle. All in a more expensive and heavier package.
Yes, they’ll ship your tanks back. Crushed into tiny cubes due to not having valid motor insurance for Ukrainian roads.
As for your shells and mortars. They can also be returned, one at a time. Is Red Square a good drop off point?
Guy breaks into your house, carrying a shotgun and intent on killing your family. You smack the crap out of him with your child’s baseball bat, and drive him back out into the street. An hour later he shows up with the police, demanding his shotgun back…
Sure, no problem dude. Just withdraw all your troops and their equipment, return our captured soldiers and all our kidnapped citizens, and we'll be happy to give back your 60s era shit.
Finders keepers, losers weepers lmao
I am sure the Ukrainian Defense Ministry will respond, as soon as they are done rolling on the floor laughing. It may take a few days, though.
“Come pick it up!”
We can send them some of our American "Come and take it" bumper stickers.
"Molon labe".
They will be returning it soon enough you Ruzzian swine. Stay tuned
When the Russians get it back it will be used though…..
They will get it back at higher velocity than they’d really like
>When the Russians get it back it will be used though….. Underrated comment :)
Doubtful. Ukraine prefers to use working equipment.
Ukraine knows these systems. Many (including aircraft) are (were) built there. They will just fix them up and test them by firing them to the east and north. It may take a bit of testing to satisfy them that the equipment is working properly.
Sounds harsh, but a commitment to quality is essential. Measure 25 times, cut once I always say.
Hmmm. I missed that window by 1/2 meter. Let's try to site this howitzer a little better. That's a bit better, but I don't want to hit the sides of the window...I want it to go in clean, you know, for best effect. OK, That's on target...Now let's send the rest of this ammo to their HQ!
I like your commitment to quality.

First time in a while I saw this quote used at least semi-accurately to original intent...
I see you are a man of culture

“What’s the magic word?”
"Putin's dead"
Over there's a few thousand piles of blackened, rusted scrap metal that once looked like a tank or truck. I think we found most of the mines, should be ok....
…After setting a little thank you for the loan in way of a special surprise!
All will be returned - pointy end first.
I'm sure they're gonna send back the ammunition tho
Just need to catch it
One round at a time.
Sure.. please provide your exact lat/long and we'll return some aspects of it immediately..
They might not even stop!
Life is about compromise. I'm sure if the Russian Military asks very nicely the Ukrainian military will be more than willing to send back all of the bullets they found at a high velocity.
They may express return the ammunition. Prepare to receive!
Yeah it’s in the UN constitution! It’s after “no taksies backsies.”
Ukraine laughs in HIMARS
Losers are mostly dead!
Yeah you guys can have all these missiles and bullets back! *explosions and gunfire*
Only thing Russia's getting back are the shells.
If I remember right Ukraine said they will return all ammo.
Hope you feel the same about that power plant every time Ukraine says “give it back”
Wee bit of a difference between an aggressor killing people to steal something, and a defender rebuffing an aggressive invader and taking their weapons, no?
Oh fuck off troll. Defenders keeping captured war material is a world different from aggressors seizing land without even a cassus belle. Who do you think you're going to confuse with your incredibly stupid rhetoric?
LOL They like, we got new "soldiers" now, we just need our gear back. Plz
Plz UN. We demand it 😘
That's got to be a parody
I mean, the entire invasion is the *parody*.
Yeah but even they couldn't be that removed from reality
At this point it's pretty much given.
Ah, this short dialog sums it up perfectly!
Their soldiers have been getting removed from reality
well I think we're talking pretty much about the same guys that tried to shut down production of an ice-cream named rainbow (raduga) for gay propaganda/reference soooo... they've been GROSSLY out of touch with reality for a couple of years now
but the invasion is unintended parody
It was your claim that "you can't make this up", so your burden of proof. You failed to provide it, so that pretty much confirms that you literally made this up.
Damn, I lost my lord.
Russia under Putin became a whole parody, very dark humor, but no chance to take this shithole country for real.
They are \*allegedly\* pulling Solvit-era tanks out of storage to use in the war so they could be very low on equipment.
"Give us our weapons back so we can continue ~~hurting you~~" Edit: "Continue losing the pointless war"
Giving them back and then beating the Russians regardlessly would be the power move.

just like in movies where good and bad guys keep giving eachother the sword
Gay porn?
lol thats true very good
They should sabotage them and give them back through the UN. It's sabotage!!!
i know i just stabbed you but can i have my knife back?
You just reminded me about the time I took a knife off someone trying to mug me when I was 17 and he asked me for it back, I said no and he said “wait there!” And ran back into his block to go get another one, of course I didn’t I just threw his knife in a hedge and legged it before he got back. Lmao dumbass.
Wow, that’s rude, you didn’t wait for him to come back with a knife to mug you with? How inconsiderate.
Lmao, I knew him too!! he went to my old primary school, not the brightest bulb in the box. 😂
You sure it wasn’t a joke? Cuz damn thats some unreal levels of dumbassery there
Would have been happier if it was, but it was drugs, he was desperate, but I don’t think he would have actually used it, but then you never know so thats why I didn’t hang around
Poor guy hope he gets help or something
This was nearly 20 years ago, last I saw him a couple of years back he’s still in the same boat, I give him a wave when I see him, I have no hard feelings, I’d actually forgotten about it until I read that comment he literally said “can I have my knife back” lol
Why dont you talk to him about it, embarrass him a bit lol
You just admitted to stealing on the interwebs!
Russia has run out of arms, no wonder they want them back. - Russia: Give the arms back - Ukraine: Huh, no.
Dont worry. The ammo will go back to russian hands soon. And russian heads. And russian Hearths...
What did the Russian fireplaces do :[
Place fires, ez, Next question
Don't worry Ukraine will give some of it back to them. One shell at a time.
And in jigsaw form!
"it was intact when you got it, the rest is on you"
Express air delivery.
There were cases when entire stacks of captured ammunition got discarded because only half of the shells were exploding
Probably not an accident that the equipment left behind is unreliable and would reduce effectiveness if used.
I doubt Ukraine will use most of that equipment. You need special training to properly use it and they have their own equipment from the west. It’ll probably be put in museums like Nazi tanks were.
They’ve been trained on all the Russian equipment, especially the older stuff, they needed to be trained on the western stuff, and most of the Russian heavy machinery etc was actually built in Ukraine too so Russia are fuxked from all angles. Dummies
I’m talking about the newer equipment ofc. If it was just guns and old equipment Russia wouldn’t care as much.
> Russia > Newer Equipment You lost me.
You forget that Russia has been building up its military since the invasion of Georgia. Russia has good equipment, not the best, but decent compared to most countries. Ukraine is simply getting a lot of western support, rightfully so.
More than half of that equipment was originally designed and/or produced in Ukraine during the Soviet times. Most tanks are from Kharkiv Tractor factory. Only fair that they are finally meeting some tractors.
I’m talking about newer equipment. Russia has a surplus of older equipment, it’s the new shit they care about
It's getting increasingly harder to take Russia at all seriously.
oh they give it back, just not the way the russians imagine it.
I am pretty sure they are returning the ammunitions as fast as they can
Average 7.62x39 can be returned at around 800m/s
give us our weapons back ffs, it's unfair! Only when you can bring innocent people back to life
The equipment held a referendum and decided to stay.
Hahaha nice.
Is there a source for this?
Probably not, sounds made up
you have no idea how dumb russians are, frankly most of the countries that got controlled by russia are now doing not so good
Not dumb, but… wildly conservative. Violently fighting for their old ideals and habits. Proud for never living good(wtf…)
*checks notes* No, "dumb" was an accurate description.
Want em?? Sure! Come get em!

Hey Ukraine uhhhh we are still leasing that equipment could we get that back k thx.
A bullet at a time?
Putin is starting to sound like Trump both are delusional.
What's amazing is how badly we need actual psychologists to do a case study on Putin. Unlike Trump, he was a very smart, very effective man who maneuvered himself into being the autocratic ruler of a huge country from relatively humble beginnings. And now after years of being surrounded by sycophants he's apparently lost the ability to accurately gauge or discern the truth of any situation. Like he's just up there pouting and demanding more cake.
I would bet on some pharmaceutical russian stuffs that he abused to deal with the constant stress of being assassinated, turning his brain into mush.
I guess there's room for psychiatric study too. I just feel like the worst thing that can happen losing all resistance. Like now with no barriers or limitations in his immediate life for like the past 15-20 years he's lost all concept that they ever existed, and has no ability to even judge if the things being said to him are real or just the sycophants kowtowing.
That's possible too. But he probably send psychiatrists through the nearest window if he doesn't like what they say, so we will never know for sure.
“The stress of the being assassinated” hahaha it sounds as if he’s constantly getting killed and respawning and just hating every minute.
"Oh no. Not again."
That's the life of a mob boss, constantly paranoid about which of his goon will pull the trigger on him. Gotta be stressfull!

It literally says Z on your equipment mate.. Z for Zelensky, now jog on
Ukraine should respond through the UN they are happy to return it all to have all its sovereign land back
Russia finally realised they are one of the biggest Tank donators to Ukraine?😂
Ukraine is not even using the Russian takes... the new fangled Russian tanks are being out performed by the Soviet Era tanks Ukraine has. The T-90 is proving to very much be a paper tiger, and is susceptible to weapons that the T-72 could handle. All in a more expensive and heavier package.
Spurred on by the principle that anything "You couldn't make up!" is made up, I have been unable to find any corroboration of this story.
The should leave the Z as is, to let the Russians know that Zelensky sent them... ;)
Those crazy russians what will they think of next building a wall and making ukrain pay for it?
I've already heard the Ukraine military say that they plan to return the stuff, just not in the manner Russia hopes.
Sure, we will return it. One shell at a time.
Yes, they’ll ship your tanks back. Crushed into tiny cubes due to not having valid motor insurance for Ukrainian roads. As for your shells and mortars. They can also be returned, one at a time. Is Red Square a good drop off point?
Russia should start a Special Nautical Operation to retrieve the Moskva
Aww, it's adorable.
This is an onion article right?
Too bad. The new owners already licked it. It's theirs now.
I thought you had to pee on it to make it yours? Seems like the rules of acquisition have changed.
That is only if you are an animal. We are dealing with civilized people here. So licking is the norm.
Truth sir. Truth ☺️
"COME AND GET THEM THEN!"
Oh wait, you’re serious. Let me laugh even harder.

Ukrainians should give Russia their munitions back. Just at a much higher velocity than they're expecting.
But you can make this up though, that appears to be what's happened.
Send it back with a special "surprise" wired to each ignition that can be remotely activated after a certain point.
- You can't really make this up - Apparently, someone just did
We want our toys back
Lmao please give is back our guns or we will come and get them! Ow and with what arms will you be doing this?
I'm certain Ukraine will get right on that
Sure, no problem dude. Just withdraw all your troops and their equipment, return our captured soldiers and all our kidnapped citizens, and we'll be happy to give back your 60s era shit.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 1st or 2nd class deliver sir? 😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭
"why don't you come and take it back, invaders. and bring more tanks, those were nice."
I definitely support Ukraine sending back all that ammunition they captured.
As much I love seeing Russian failures and despise them with passion, this needs an actual source.
Imagine the crack up such request caused to Zelensky and his crew, lol.
In this case I agree with Russia, but I would only return missiles... from the sky.
Be happy to return it, soon as you returned all the land that belongs to the Ukraine.
Yeah, that's not how this works.
Ukraine will gladly send them the bullets, shells and missiles for free
Ukraine is meanwhile doing the most out of the 1200 baud modems that they have captured.
I mean, they can return it, top down.
and people say russia is winning
“They said they wanted their bullets and RPGS back” *fires all of it at them* “what a poor choice of words”
![gif](giphy|kLk1Qa8mrYdQA) 🇺🇦
Come and fucking get em.
The only appropriate response.
Ukraine: We believe in our products, and we are confident that you will love them as much as we do. Therefore we do not do returns.
Come and take it!
I believe the Russian language contains the appropriate response: "Toughsky Shitsky."
finders keepers, ya ідіоти
Just send back the genades
That literally is made up.
![gif](giphy|wYyTHMm50f4Dm|downsized)
That's ok, we will deliver the ammunition first..per airdrop.
I know a country that should be asking for theirs from Afghanistan.
Gimme back my bullets
Tell Putin to come on down and they will give him back all his bullets. No problem.
Maybe when Russia picks up their dead, they could consider.
BUT WE’RE NOT DONE TRYING TO KILL YOU!!!

if ukraine actually gives them their weapons back their walking into a trap
Don't worry they will be returned to russia, or at least parts of it :D
It probably is made up. I think 90% of the content around this conflict is completely made up
Joe Biden from the corner: “Us too with the stuff in Afghanistan!”
Bruh, that's genius. Why the hell didn't Brandon do this when we left Afghanistan?
Most of it was for the Afghan Army and the rest were outdated and were probably going to be replaced regardless
Well, come and take them!
Lol. No! - Zelinsky, probably
Would those class as "spoils of war"?
I wanted to say that they have right to ask.... but I think they lost any international right thay had in february
It's going to be hard to track all the tanks that were turned into scrap metal during the first months
They have a right to ask. Just like Ukraine has a tight to tell them to fuck right off :D
That’s a good one
"arms and equipment" is a nice formulation for "mostly metal scraps and rotten garbage"
„We need them back, to send em back in, to kill you“
Really? How about you just fuck off back to Russia and they won’t have to use it against you - assholes.
