Russia-installed governor Sergei Aksyonov says ‘measures’ are being taken to restore ‘situation’ at bridge, which is a vital logistical link for Russian military
Some explosions reported at the Kerch Strait bridge. Again.
wonder if pillar got damaged this time, and at any rate a bit of (russian) paranoia wrt bridge can’t hurt. i’d guess security checks worse than at airports before entering kerch bridge
the article has a video, the bridge deck partially collapsed on one side, right at the pillar. But the pillar itself looks pretty much intact. It’s really hard to damage solid concrete with a nearby explosion, so that makes sense.
On the other hand, russia said there was no pillar damage, so it’s probably torn to shreds.
boom is easy, this was solved even before ww1. all the hard to make, worthwhile bling is guidance, sensors and such
if you want to fund MIC company, you need a mechanical engineer, maybe electronics engineer (for comms), and programmerS, especially those that deal with low level stuff
so, like last time, one half of road bridge is dropped. https://liveuamap.com/en/2023/17-july-images-of-the-damage-at-kerch-bridge-after-explosions this time the span is twisted, and the second section also looks damaged if still usable

It was hit by naval drones, so I think it would have to be pillar damage :)

To shreds you say?
Are you a physicist?
by trade i’m a chemist, but i do dabble in electronics. why do you ask?
IDK why they’re asking but you have exactly the right skills. Electronically-Guided Special Chemistry Operations on Kerch Bridge when?

Terminal guidance of supersonic payloads falls under ITAR, so good luck with that!
and you need a lawyer
Seemed like a physicist expression. I’m a chemist too :)
it’s more of language barrier showing in nonobvious ways
I use it in systems engineering too, fwiw
