So how good is Russian holy armor plates?

>>64457911 (OP)
At least, this time it is free?

>>64457911 (OP)
I like the Ukrainian ones better

Ukies did it better.

Goes hard desu. Are there any shops online who can do art on plates like this? I want my waifu on mine.

>>64457911 (OP)
>>64457922
>>64457923
i like the art, pretty good

to answer OP, some guys in the US got a few legit plate that were sold by techincom and they hold out pretty well against M855A1

>>64457911 (OP)
you dumb monkies still killing each other? god told you fags to stop that eons ago

imagine growing up in the soviet union, rightfully being taught that religion is a fugazi and then the union collapses and a three decades later your leader is doing shit like this.

>>64457998
really not different from the soviet union, is it? it's the same old russian bullshit. stalin stopped persecuting christians and started celebrating them because he needed more meat for the grinder. after ww2 stalin returned to the militant gaytheist status quo

i genuinely don't understand what holds russia together. it's like a schizophrenic nightmare of contradicting realities. maybe it really just as easy as drowning your populace in alcohol and your media telling you everything is some other guy's fault

>>64457922
>>64457923
didn't they paint these after the wearer was shot though? iirc it was the donetsk airport battle where this started

Jesus, can you imagine how much hellfire is destined for Putin and his KGB friends? The sins and heresies just keep stacking up.

>>64458115
You know that when the Russian missile cruiser Moskva sank in April 2022, it may have been carrying a piece of the "True Cross," a holy relic believed by some Christians to be a fragment of the cross on which Jesus was crucified.

>>64457911 (OP)
>So how good is Russian holy armor plates?
they don't issue them, they don't even issue helmits or kevlar now, fresh meat is expected to salvage from corpses, the odds of a russian front lie solider in a motorised brigade being issued plates is nil in 2025 and its never happeneing for 'storm' units because they are there JUST to draw fire and die. MAybe the chechen bl;ocking forces get them but not Rusisan front line combat troops in Ukraine unless it is private purchase or pulled from a corpse, they somtimes still get plastic, yes plastic helmets, not even steel not with any ballistic resistance, to wash out of.

>>64458298
please, there have been so many tons of "genuine 100% AAAAA+++ true piece of the Cross GUARANTEED or your pilgrimage refunded" splinters in history you would think they nailed that jew to every tree in the forest

>>64458115
>how much hellfire is destined for Putin and his KGB friends? The sins and heresies just keep stacking up.
satan always had a home in the kremlin, Putin takes communion publicly having personally ordered the murder of navalny and nemtsov and many others. The Russian orthadox church is satanic to the core and administered by the fsb to spy on confessionals, krill it's head was a kgb member when they were sworm by oath to state atheism

>>64457911 (OP)
They are a D6 6 invul save at best

>>64458345
Pay your debts first, fag.

>>64458345
He's not going to fuck you

The orthodox church is just "old means good: the religion" isn't it

>>64458405
no it had some other principles at some point because how did it displace heathenism
also it is embracing new material in armored plates that seems pretty modern

>>64458405
Yes. It is full of idol-worshiping heathens.

>>64457954
Hi, Indiana vatnigger. Kys already.

>>64458405
the slavic orthodox church is just a fast food version of orthodox religion; might resemble the real thing but is unhealthy garbage
or in case of russia, a flat out state war propaganda apparatus

>>64458345
turn your other cheek, bitch-boy

>>64458429
>it had some other principles at some point
It wasn't a distinct church at that point. That was pre schism
>embracing new material
By painting them in the same gothic style they have for the last millenia

>>64458442
Jeet detected.

>>64458405
Let me guess: you go to some “church” with a bunch of women on stage shaking tambourines with a rainbow flag in the background

>>64458441
All orthodox churches are the same exact thing with slightly different ethnic flavor

>>64458056
It runs on 40k logic. The political spectrum is measured as distance from the center of power versus the fringes.

>>64458341
>Once Leonid Krol, a strong psychologist, in an interview gave me a remarkable formula:

>"Putin is the embodiment of the inner emptiness of each of us, and he comes into contact with the inner emptiness of every one of us."

>From my point of view, this inner emptiness — this swampiness, shakiness, ideological shapelessness… Russia, as you understand, is generally not an ideological country at all; it is rather a behavioral, survival‑oriented country. There are very few ideas in Russia, and there is no sphere, no space for their formation. So the inner emptiness that took shape in Putin was filled very quickly. If a person has this emptiness, it is filled by the devil; the devil climbs into every crack. Emptiness is filled very easily.

>In general, I know many people who have somehow amputated love in themselves, amputated courage; the emptiness remained, these voids grow, they are filled by the devil. One must not leave emptiness in oneself, must not leave much free time, because the devil will use that free time. One must not leave the melancholy, the anxiety after a finished romance — literary or with a person — must not leave emptiness where relationships were, because the devil occupies all the volume given to him — like gas.
-- Dmitry Bykov

>>64458333
It doesn't matter that it's likely not true. What's important is that the butthurt it caused in Russia is real, and that makes it as much an authentic relic as it needs to be.

>>64458405
Depends

Greek Orthodox are turbo old school Catholics, to the point where the modern difference in theological doctrine comes down to the wording of the Lord's Prayer and Papal Supremacy, and nothing else.

Russian Orthodox is a compromised state asset and has been for half a century. Other Orthodox churches have split from them quietly in the past and loudly in recent years. They'll say whatever is useful for the Russian government and are unironically staffed with a comical amount of ex-intel officers.

>>64458068
I think the Russian ones got hit, too. At least that looks like a bullet hole in the wrist there. Subtitles imply it, as well, but that could be translation jank. But, hey, Russians stealing shit and pretending that it was their idea all along is a time-honored tradition.

>>64458952
>Russians stealing shit and pretending that it was their idea all along is a time-honored tradition.

it's a shame some faggots had to come along and stick their nose in Germany's business, all this could've been avoided.

>>64458405
Its Russian, Anon. Everything they've ever said or done about anything has been a lie. Its not 'old means good', its 'We LARP as an actual religion because the Russian State says we can.'

Just watched some videos on the trench crusade fantasy lore and these picture now hit differently.

>>64458978
Hitler would be remembered as a hero if he didn't chimp out on the whole world and instead just invaded Russia up to the Urals and had Japan take over Siberia.
Hell if he put enough Russians in death camps he'd be a hero to them too, after all they worship whoever can genocide them the hardest. Maybe that's monke's plan? Kill enough Russians he becomes immortal like Stalin?

>>64459158
If you kill your enemies, they win. If you genocide your own people, you become a God.

>>64458298
Where is the wood?

>>64458846
Russian and Greek Orthodox are the same thing with slightly different cultural flair.
t. Attend them both
t. Attend

>>64459290
Nevermind that last t. I am very drunk

>>64459292
As expected of an idolator orthofag.
Enjoy your heresy

>Saints on plate carriers
Not sure if it's a good idea to make something to be shot at religious.

>>64459320
It's for "divine protection". How else are they going to get a 5++?

>>64459325
Yeah but God ain't gonna like seeing their faces get shot.

>>64459215
>If you kill your enemies, they win.
You guys know he never said that, right?

>>64457911 (OP)
They look like typical lvl4 plates.
How common is the tungsten core 5.45 that goes through lvl4?

>>64457911 (OP)
Actually pretty good for what they are. The chances of them getting issued to a Mobnik are close to zero though; they have to make do with airsoft garbage that's worse than what the Soviets were issued in the 50s.

>>64459243
>Where is the wood?

The two wood splinters that have been overlapped to form a cross at the centre of the brooch relic thing that has been constructed around and added to over centuries

>>64458056
>i genuinely don't understand what holds russia together
violence and propaganda. That is literally it. ziggers always have such a difficult time as a empire since they dont offer anything to the conquered for even the most minimum of cooperation. Only poverty, alcoholism, rampant homosexuality and violence

>>64457911 (OP)
good chance those are painted chinese plates instead.

russian ones work but often have issues with quality control.

>>64458846
>staffed with a comical amount of ex-intel officers.
there is no such thing as ex-KGB

>>64459158
Monke is already the most popular czar in the top 10 listing according to vatniks. Followed by stalin. Brezhnev takes third place. Starsky talked about it recently

Last places are between yeltsin and gorbachev

>>64457911 (OP)
How much does it cost compared to the other relics and what bonuses does it provide?

>>64457937
>>64459606
>>64459928
So in short they are good, lvl3+, maybe lvl4
But they are in short supply because corruption and only elites get them.
Monkey is now aware of how good they are and thinks they are holy, leading him to hoard these plates for himself.
Is this assumption correct?

>>64459292
IS THAT A S&W 627!?! I FUCKING LOVE THOSE GUNS!!!

>>64459540
You know he was a retarded bronze age kike right? AKA fucking stupid?

That's because he's not dead yet.

>rightfully being taught that religion is a fugazi

>>64458405
the ROC has essentially been a state instrument ever since Peter I replaced the patriarch with a synod in the 1700's. There was a brief period during the reign of Nicholas when the patriarchate was re-established and the church was granted a level of autonomy, but the Soviets would end-up undoing this and re-establishing state-control of the church (but not before the old patriarch created the OCA and gave it independence, which the ROC stills seethes about). This isn't even something restricted to Orthodoxy, imperial Russia did the same thing with the Orenburg Muslim Spiritual Assembly, and replacing that one Catholic bishopric with another synod in the wake of the November Uprising. You see similar behaviors from other authoritarian regimes, like those few churches in North Korea which is essentially just glowie honey-traps, or the meddling chinks do with the election of Catholic bishops. The ROC is just one of the few occasions where the state has a monopoly on an entire sect.

>+3 protection from Evil
It makes suicide more difficult, working as intended.

>>64458298
It annoys me that this is not particularly symetrical for some reason.

>>64457998
Imagine having this kind of poor understanding of homo sovieticus.
Your average russian can larp as religious and want sovok back alongside numerous other self-contradictory beliefs. As usual there is zero self-reflection.

>>64462213
>monke has always been a CIA asset

>>64457998
its the only way to survive as a lowly serf. You accept whatever horseshit is fed to you without question. A particular serf actually believing this is another matter

thus you end up with situation of Zs everywhere and vatnik cheering at ukraine war while sitting passively on the sides when pringles had a road trip with a few thousand soldiers to muscovia. Almost nobody stood up to protect monkes honor nor condemn him publicly

>>64457923
If they did it better why are they cauldroned as we type?

How would Hittyboo invade russia without invading poland and starting the world war in the process

>>64462676

two more weeks

pidor they didn't need US and UK support. All they needed was them not bailing your failing ass out

>>64462617
>annoys me that this is not particularly symetrical
For your own health and safety never do any research into Russian weapons manufacturing and quality control

>>64462691
Not that anon, but Hitler could have just waited for Russia to do it, then he could roll in and claim he was liberating them or something.

>>64462617
He moves in mysterious ways.

>>64460752
>Is this assumption correct?
wrong, it's just an other PR stunt so putin get happy russians to vote for him (they love that shit). the ceramic plate themselves are relatively ok compared to what you can purchase in the US and they were made in a huge number so they are far from running out of them.
the thing is russians are dumb and will tend to discard things that annoy them, that include body armor.
from the recent vids mobiks are issued 6b23 vest with titanium plates or they have their hands on some chink stuff

>>64457911 (OP)
Pretty good but only if you haven't committed any sins since your last confession.

>>64457911 (OP)
Pfft, even today Russians can't stop stealing Ukrainian culture for themselves.

>>64458978
Hey, Germany stuck their nose in our business first.

>>64462712
Someone said on /k/ that that was intended for some reason, does anyone know if this is bullshit or not? I'd like to read about why you'd want an asymmetrical barrel if there really is a reason to.

>>64466861
But the UK declared war on Germany

>>64463797
The most embarrassing part is that it shakes less than the guns on the Terminator

>>64467348
Yes, after we very specifically told them that invading Poland was a no-go. They knew damned well what they were getting into.

>>64467413
You immediately abandoned your position

>>64467417
>We are informing you that if you invade Poland, Britain and France shall go to war with you.
>FUCK YOU ANGLO-FRANKS I WILL DO IT ANYWAY
>War ensues
We informed them what our business was (peace on the continent) and they stuck their big fascist noses into it. Fuck em.

>>64467348
The UK is like a retarded pet dog that runs up to the bear, provokes it, then runs back to its master to be rescued.
