Huh, interesting. The disadvantages of the centralised vs distributed approach really makes sense here.
The Russian tactics seem like total madness. Might have worked in WWII still but looking at the videos in this community, surely they will eventually have to run out of vehicles and willing men (if they haven't run out of the latter already).
Ball bearings, Jesus.
I wasn't aware they had been used in terror attacks, but I saw an article about an attempted assassination of Maduro on the site you linked.
I'll take your word on that Amazon link, disturbing shit.
Are these attacks on single soldiers tactically relevant too, or is it mainly intended as a psychological weapon, knowing that these things could hunt you down and you basically can't do anything against it? I'm not Russian, or a soldier, or in Ukraine but I'm scared of these things.
