🔴Не впустив - не піднімай!

Польський бойовий медик Даміан Дуда, показав “сувенір” який знайшли його бійці на “нулі”.

“Це один з багатьох імпровізованих зарядів, з якими ми стикаємося, працюючи в окопах на передовій. Тут видно винахідливість та досвід ворога.”


🔴If you don’t drop it, don’t pick it up!

Polish combat medic Damian Duda, shows a “souvenir” found by his soldiers at ground “zero”.

“This is one of the many improvised charges we come across while working in the trenches on the front line. It shows the ingenuity and experience of the enemy.”

    That’s actually damned clever. Mags are a dime a dozen in peacetime, can’t imagine how many are laying on the ground in a warzone. If I saw one that fit my rifle, I’d probably grab it.

      i guess it’s been already defused - that hole in plastic explosive could be where detonator was, besides they wouldn’t give device like this to a nonprofessional in a fuzed condition (probably) (i hope so at least)

      Everyone there is so uncomfortably close to heaven, that wire is probably a good reminder of keeping alert…

      So how does it work? After you fire off a few rounds it blows up?

      Exactly how it works: First round removed or fired moves the remaining rounds up in the cartridge which releases the IED switch and explodes.

    From ied/booby trap training 🇫🇮, trainer outlined winterwar/contwar records from russians using such. Everything from children’s teddy bears to fallen soldiers were used.

    Finns did also umm made questionable “frozen russians” art by the roadsides behind enemy lines. Men standing, never moving.

      Yeah unsurprisingly just about everybody in the army here gets some training on IEDs (or at least used to way back when I did my service in '01.)

      Honestly we Finns aren’t super good at pretty much anything, but one thing we’ve gotten down to a science over time is how to fight Russians.

    I’ve personally heard a story of US military sabotaging ammunition in Vietnam, and even staging the scene around it.
