Still waiting on what happened at Deir Ezzor.
Put #deirezzor in twitter if you want to follow live. 4 hours ago a VBIED crashed the front gate of the airbase after all day clashes. Pro IS source says IS has breached the base. Nothing new from either side for the last 4 hours.
I love set piece battles like this. Fortified airbase with excellent terrain, defenses, and airpower vs crazed heavily armed suicidal zerg rushes. This is some good action.
>>27476707
Could have been time delay air burst
>>27482194
What's the strategic advantage of capturing DEZ?
>>27480029
so its basically a stalemate?
>>27483125
The airbase? It has a large group of SAA republican guard on it. I don't know the exact number. IS capturing the base would a disaster for the SAA as some of their best units would be decapitated by IS and the rest of the city would fall. That's a strategic loss.
However at this time the SAA and their star General Zahreddine have be able to defend the base as it's on a cliff in parts surrounded by minefields. They have decided to hold out against endless waves of IS fanatics and so far they have.
>>27476069
Hope they release a video where they lose body parts.

I read it already that was from yesterday not today or tonight and the number of IS killed in Deir Zour was closer to 40 or 50.
The only grain of truth is if you add up all IS deaths from two separate fronts in Syria it would equal 150 because the YPG killed a bunch of them yesterday morning in Hasakah province.
This is just gold.

This is one the BEST videos I've seen coming from Syria! Thank you anon! Really fucking AWESOME!
I'm learning russian and my russian is not good but he mentioned that Spetsnaz snipers are active in the area but have not shown them in the video.

yeah, that was fucking AWESOME! it didn't even feel like a war zone! I also enjoyed NV shots. It was clearly shot through a NV tube of some kind (maybe even a rifle scope) but they didn't show exactly what it was.

Vague new information in Deir Zour. Pro rebel(not IS) post of continued clashes around the airbase early this morning with heavy SAA/IS shelling, heavy weapons being used.
Pro rebel source is saying ISIS is being silent about the combat around the airbase right now. This to me means either they just suffered a large mount of casualties and do not want to talk about it or they want a media blackout on their movements. Either could be true.
>>27484938

>that shit eating grin on McCain's face when he suggests giving "FSA" stingers
he's not even hiding it tbh
Also the subtext is amazingly clear. It's not that the FSA are the good guys, its that another country DARES to have a foreign policy that isn't in line with Obongo's retardation. That's literally whats triggering all this, there is no regard or thought for actual policy in event Assad were to be taken out.

Here's an English version of the Syria Russian airbase tour:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7trSk4mh7-o
>>27486485
In Northern Hama this morning a major battle is shaping up. Artillery followed up after the bombers. This is classic pre assault fire.
>>27486664
thanks!
>>27486583
>stingers
russians fly too high for them to work. plus the law of unintended consequences is just too great... they'd sell them to someone or they'd use them themselves to shoot down US airliners. also, russians would "lose" a bunch of Iglas too in Yemen or some other ME country.
>>27486583
Someone need to tell him that war is over.
>>27486728

>>27486666
In the SAA Northern Hama offensive rebels are already claiming to have blown up some tanks and BMPs. Strap on to your jimmies because a rustling is going happen.
>>27483602
It is a civil war. After everything is said and done, the ex-rebels will still need to be repatriated into the country. That being said, I get the feeling this is more of a move out of desperation than it is out of kindness or foresight.
>Heavy airstrikes+artillery preparation fire on #KafrNabudah, #KfarZita + #Lataminah. #SAA offensive expected. #Syria
SAA/russians are getting ready for offensive...
>>27486790
I hope the SAA has a reserve force because the first wave supposedly lost at least 4 tanks.
After the rain of Russian bombs apparently it was raining TOWs.
Don't lose hope yet pro Assads the Northern Hama attack is still ongoing. One of the biggest SAA offensive's I have seen in a long time. The Russians planned it too as a version of their deep battle. They are attacking on a wide front.
That said pro rebel sources are whispering to each other that it looks like some of the SAA convoy's got wholesale mascaraed on one of the axis.
>>27487016

According to the reporter no Speznaz forces were shown in the video. He said they were used to pinpoint enemy snipers and reconnaissance as well as some fighting.
The video has some general information regarding the situation in Damascus suburbs.
He is showing a night offensive by the forces stationed there, claiming success. He speaks about how the night attack was superseded by a constant aerial bombardment for a few days, but that the enemy is entranced in tunnels.
Then in the morning he said the enemy launched a counter offensive, but the troops there were ready for this.
In the closing interview and words, he says that even though the attack is going well, the enemy can stop it any time simply by moving their forces and attacking a different point, which would force the troops there to stop the offensive to send fighters there.
not a word for word, but in general that's what's going on.

It has nothing to do with who is supporting who
It is all about:
1. Russia did not ask permission
2. Russian is supporting the man the US painted as a "villan" for the last 5 years - yet Russia has won global public support for this
3. This is the 3rd time Russia has bitched Obama on the Syrian crisis (specifically)
4. (Issue only the truly long sighted politicians are worried about) This builds Russia's "strong man" status and helps them facilitate their Eurasian Economic Union (local) and their image as an alternative to the US (global)

>>27487490
I don't know. Committing some forces for a push seems reasonable.
Waiting till winter is over is going to give the rebels time to adapt to the new weapons and aerial bombardments. To learn the limitations of the Russian air force.
I think trying to shove while the enemy is off balance is a good idea, as long as you don't over commit.

From Robert Baer's See no Evil:
>"We have buried in Ghuta, near the Damascus airport, an SA-7 missile," he said matter-of-factly, as if telling me he'd planted a bed of petunias in his garden back home. "What we need is for you to inform us when Assad's airplane is ready to take off and he is on it."
I remember reading in one of Robert Baers books that back in the day the muslim brotherhood had buried one near an airport and wanted the CIA to tell them what plane a president was on so they could take it out

There was a sizable amount of man portable AA missiles in Syria a few years back. But seems like most of them were used up and they had no resupply.
They still have a few left, but it seems like the SyAF is flying slow helicopters on pretty low altitudes, without being shot down, pretty regularly.
I'm hearing reports that there is a SAA offensive being undertaken in Northern Homs and nearby areas in the Ldlib province.
Somewhere around Kafr Nabudaj? I've only seen tabloid's reporting this, can anyone else confirm this?

>>27487753
memes aside, the US was supplying the Kurds and some opposition groups for a while. But never with AA missiles. It would be a major policy shift if they do now.
The lack of portable AA missiles also suggests (in my opinion) the US forced Saudis and Qatar to not supply such either.
>>27487767
Not supplying AA has been American FP for decades. If Obama breaks this, he is really throwing away the rulebook. Not a good idea, considering what happened in E.Ukraine

The intensity of the Russian air strikes on terrorist targets "Islamic state" in Syria is growing. This was during a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin told Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu.

>Russian missiles fired from the caspian sea have hit targets in Syria
wtf mate isnt that like two thousand miles away? what did they use?
>>27487797
Four Russian Navy warships have fired a total of 26 missiles at the position of the terrorist group Islamic State in Syria, Russia’s Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu announced. The missiles were fired from the Caspian Sea.
“Four missile ships launched 26 cruise missiles at 11 targets. According to objective control data, all the targets were destroyed. No civilian objects sustained damage,” Shoigu said.
The missiles flew some 1,500 km before reaching their targets, probing their efficiency.

Do the ships from the Casspian flottila even have cruise missiles that can strike from so far? From what I found out the Buyan's and Gepards dont have a such a weapon. I smell BS.
>>27487948
They have tomahawk-like missiles.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3M-54_Klub
3M-14 - DOD designation SS-N-30A. An Inertial guidance land attack variant deployed by the Russian Navy. The submarine-launched weapon has a basic length of 6.2 m (20 ft), with a 450 kg (990 lb) warhead. Its range is 1,500–2,500 km (930–1,550 mi). Its subsonic terminal speed is Mach 0.8.
3M-14T - DOD designation SS-N-30A; is the Inertial guidance land attack variant which is deployed by the Russian Navy. A surface ship with VLS launched missile, with thrust vectoring booster, its basic length is 8.9 m (29 ft), its warhead weight and other performance are the same as the 3M-14.
>>27487964
?
According to wiki, the Buyan class can use 3M-14/3M-14T missiles which have a range of 2500km
>>27487964

Enough Ruskie shitposting, recent confirmed events
-IS took 5 Iraqi army bases in Baiji and the city is about to fall completely into IS hands
-DeZ still at a stalemate, with a few IS probes here and there, conflicting claims as the SAA claims to have killed "hundreds" of IS fighters while IS as posted pics from the city recently. I'm going to assume an IS assault on the airport itself stalled and was destroyed but we'll have to see what happens in the coming days

Uh sorry guys, I was checking the Wiki a bit fast, but didn't see the ace of Klubs on it's armament. Thanks for the info.
p.s.
How would such a launch work with Iran? They would have to announce it way before to the Iranian armed forces right? Cause it can't be really pleasant to have cruise missiles just chilling and cruising across your territory.

>>27488052
They have less than half of the displacement of the LCS

Apparently another heap of SAA tanks are kill.
Why are they so shit at armoured warfare?
>>27488489
Almost unlimited ATGM supplies help a lot. Anyway, the other day rebel sources said that SAA lost 60 tanks and
they didnt even have 60 tanks in all the province. So waiting for snackbaring videos

Wait, weren't the Houtis and Al-Quaeda fighting together against ISIS and US-Saudi coalition?
>>27488556
That was me who mentioned the "60 tanks" and I was talking about the SAA offensive to break the IS Keweris siege a week ago.
I never said 60 tanks were destroyed. I said the SAA brought in 60 tanks for the offensive and it boggled my mind why they couldn't make any progress with 60 tanks.
Later on the real number turned out to be 40 tanks and not 60 but the SAA offensive stalled out regardless.
>>27489035
No. ISIS actually has a video up attacking Houthis
>>27489042
That's what I'm saying:
ISIS vs Al Qaeda
ISIS vs Houtis
Saudi+US vs Houtis
Saudi+US (supposedly) vs ISIS
Al Qaeda + Houtis (sometimes) vs ISIS
>>27489037
>>27489037
anyway since I passed out during the beginning of the north Hama offensive and just now got back on it appears all the talk of SAA armor taking loses is true. Pro rebel sources are claiming they inflicted heavy casualties on SAA armor when they advanced.
Pro regime sources said the SAA took Lataminah but that is being disputed.
All that said I doubt this is how the SAA envisioned their first offensive backed by "official" Russian airpower.

Syrians would need at least "Advisers"
German media already reporting about it

they reported the same during the Ukrain-Russian war...
and the Russian lying until today about it ..

>>27488790
>T-62
The TOW hit the pole infront of it, then they went into a panic mode when several BMPs and infantry came after the T-62.
>ATGM vs tank.
Seems like they failed to kill the tank but got a exterior fuel tank.
>Mil mi 24
Risky but that's it's job. If it got decent support and no serious AA danger then most will survive.
>>27489256
Russia will need an imperial fuckton of ground grunts if it wants to keep Syria. It's just a question of how much it can assign resources because China is in it for the loots in the Central Asia too. This move may well end up making Russia A LOT more vulnerable to China and the US and EU want absolute jack shit to do in this conflict, but keep their own bases clear.
>>27488456
I think him spamming flares and flying so low is to some extent the reason rebels are low on Manpads.
He's probably baiting AA fire and Manpad launches so his buddies at 3km+ can bomb them

You are two weeks late to that party friend. Russian military presence (air and ground forces) in syria was official after the UN meeting.
>>27489350
Having the exterior fuel tank full of fuel seems like a bad idea to me. It's the weak link that will blow up the entire tank even with a simple RPG hit.

Russians are putting on quite a show! I had no idea I'd enjoy watching all this new tech so much. It's quite diff from the US tech we've been seeing for the past 15 years of various wars.
Why are they launching from the fucking Caspian? NATO will cry if they launch from the Med or what? Or are they simply demonstrating their long-range missile capabilities?

I think bunga bunga is a superior tactic to employ.
>>27489424
But when have it happend? The fuel system is probally designed so it wont explode just like that and it dont have the power to trow the turret, only enough to burn everything.
And tanks dont explode because the fuel sytem went full of fire, it explodes because the munitions stored inside went full fire.
>>27489463
Russia exports tons of arms. This was a sales presentation.
It's all a show and the world's a stage. Just enjoy it!
>>27489500
Oh I'm enjoying it, beautiful filming from RT especially. I was just questioning their reasoning.

>>27489498
>And tanks dont explode because the fuel sytem went full of fire
Usually fire and Russian tanks are a bad mix
>>27489517
It was a fucking parade tovarich, everybody is drunk in a parade, even the missiles
nice goodie there in the vid
>>27489547
The only bad mix is exploading propellent and HE rounds.
Fuel itself can not trow a turret.
any reliable news of the saa offensive?
>>27489552
Good find
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-160
>>27489589
SAA supposedly have taken heavy loses.
But that's unverified
>>27483702
Wtf is this thing?
Hopefully Russia don't send ground troops at any point. I imagine what's left of the SAA and whatever Iran can send should be enough. Russia leading the offensive would be a horrible mistake, and would end up just like Afghanistan I imagine.
>>27489608
It's a Do-it-yourself armored truck with a ZU-23-2
>>27489614
>and would end up just like Afghanistan I imagine
Dont think so. They are not fighting a insurgency.
In afghanistan they did not hold ground. In Syria they hold ground so it will be kinda easy.
>>27487376
has the repub guard always been this well equipped? looks like that guy has all new uniform and gear. did the russians bring all that?
Where do the Kurds play into the whole civil war situation? Have they simply secured Kurdish Syria? Are they fighting against the government and rebels or what? What's Russia's stance on them, if any? Assad's stance on them?
>>27489664
I can't comment on Ruskies thoughts on the Kurds, but I do hope that this is the birth of a new fledgling nation in the middle east
>>27489608
Looks like some crazy ass WW1 contraption
>>27487840
It's clearly a deployed airbase in Syria. Look at the uniforms and the terrain.
>>27489664
At his point I think Kurds are more pro-Assad anti-ISIS. Many Kurds believe that Turkey is directly supporting ISIS (which it definitely looks like tbh)
In a change up from the TOW videos from today in this video rebels claiming to have captured a T-72 tank in the Hama offensive.
What a disaster for the SAA. They couldn't even move forward after a heavy Russian air bombardment.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilqcCnOq06Q
>>27489652
It's not like ISIS are going to give up the time tested advantage of fighting against a foreign enemy (which is sinking and blending into the civilian population) and face the Russian offensive head on. ISIS know they cannot defend their currently held areas in a conventional conflict so what else can happen other than have the conflict descend into insurgency?
>>27487840
MI-24s are most definitely in Syria.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIKa4_ZCNXc&feature=youtu.be
>>27489700
So many videos of tanks getting rekt coming out today. So much for that SAA offensive, lol.
At this rate Russian gunships are gonna be providing fire on the front lines soon
>>27489703
Well this time they got allies that want to fight with them.
And they must have learnt something from afghanistan and they have experience from chechnya.
>>27487396
Thanks Mohammad.

you mean here?. If this is the best they can show for today this is really bad. It isn't even out of a disputed zone pre offensive.

Must have sucked to be fighting for an army practically demonized by the entire Western world.
>>27490015
They also took Latmin and a few towns east of that map.
>>27490027
Latmin is disputed as areas around Morek have conflicting claims from a hour ago but i'll accept latmin has been taken for now.
We'll see what tomorrow brings , I'm out.

Demonstration of force and sales presentation. They can reach anyone between Rome and Kabul from the Caspian with conventional warheads, and they want them to remember that.
Any news about the Rebel offensive in Quneitra northern countryside?
>>27490066
Who cares as long as they can't hit either Washington
>>27490064
The SAA has apparently also captured Kafr Nabudah, a couple of hours ago. Seems even TOWs couldn't mossad the Assad.
>>27490083
I got a couple more minutes so i'm still here. Last I heard there was a SAA counter attack in Quneitra backed by heavy artillery but no word on if they regained anything.
>>27490110
I have no information to say otherwise. On Latmin rebels posted videos of them there as video proof the SAA didn't take it.
I'll be here when the early morning starts in Syria to follow up.
