Quote from: Skoop on Today at 01:05:48 PMI've heard many pro Russians cite that Clark incident in Serbia. They tout that as nato aggression and the sentiment is probably what lead to Putin's rise.

I don't buy all the nato expansion bad and caused Ukraine war that's being put out there. Something has to keep the Russians in check from gobbling up the Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania. Eastern Europe is thriving living free from Russian rule, no way that would happen with out nato.

We wouldn't need to move nato East if Russia would let Eastern Europe live in peace.

I think really, the failure is letting the Russians become enemies 22 years ago. Nato moving East could have been a friendly alliance with Russia moving closer, some how diplomacy dropped the ball 20+ years ago.

I'm certainly not pro-Russian. Just pragmatic, level-headed and citing a very well-documented fact. I personally draw no connection between the Pristina incident and the rise of Putin.

AI designing games is absurd until it can at least put up a decent fight as the opposition IN a game. Put THAT in your virtual pipe and smoke it, Skynet!

Put in this light, I get it. I just think there should be acknowledgement of seriousness of the situation and the discussion should be balanced with that truth. I think the purpose of the attack was not to inflict any real damage or cause major destruction or loss of life. I think it was 100% political in order to save face and send a message. I believe if they really wanted to cause serious harm and risk escalation, Iran has means at its disposal to accomplish that, or at least, increase the chances of it.

Unfortunately, I can't find the images. I know I sold it on eBay, but they don't have my previous listings on there so I can't find the images.

I did find this image - but it's only really of the top of the model. I was taking a photo of my collection before I went on a selling binge.

I did also find my Jagdpanther, Chieftain and Leopard 1 - thought I'd post them before I lost the images forever.

This was my aircraft colelction.
