"Alligator" - new powerful 25kg sniper rifle terrorizes Russian army | Military Mind | TVP World

When thinking of a sniper, you imagine someone with a light, slender weapon designed to pick off enemies at a distance. So far, so good. But in Ukraine, they apparently thought, “We can do better than that!”. Witness this two-meter long, armor-piercing monstrosity. It’s a BFG 9000- except it’s for real. All this - and more - in the latest episode of Military Mind, presented by Jonasz Rewiński.
Bringing you all the latest daily news and updates, TVP World is Poland's first English-language channel where you can find world news as seen from the Polish perspective and the latest news from the CEE region. Follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram.

Russia has the most nuclear weapons of any country, at 6,257. Of these, 1,458 are active, meaning they are already deployed, 3,039 are available (can be deployed if needed) and 1,760 are retired (out of use and awaiting dismantlement How do Russian nuclear weapons compare to the rest of the world?

Who have killed more people in last two decades ? America or Russia how many people have been killed and wounded in Iraq since the 2003 United States invasion. However, we know that between 184,382 and 207,156 civilians have died from direct war related violence caused by the U.S., its allies, the Iraqi military and police, and opposition forces from the time of the invasion through October 2019. The violent deaths of Iraqi civilians have occurred through aerial bombing, shelling, gunshots, suicide attacks, and fires started by bombing. Many civilians have also been injured. Because not all war-related deaths have been recorded accurately by the Iraqi government and the U.S.-led coalition, the numbers are likely much higher. Several estimates based on randomly selected household surveys place the total death count among Iraqis in the hundreds of thousands. Several times as many Iraqi civilians may have died as an indirect result of the war, due to damage to the systems that provide food, health care and clean drinking water, and as a result, illness, infectious diseases, and malnutrition that could otherwise have been avoided or treated. The war has compounded the ill effects of decades of harmful U.S. policy actions towards Iraq since the 1960s, including economic sanctions in the 1990s that were devastating for Iraqis. Despite more than $100 billion committed to aiding and reconstructing Iraq, many parts of the country still suffer from lack of access to clean drinking water and housing.

While l totally agree about the standard of training, I think you both have missed the real point. Russia cares even less about the prison recruits than about the others. They are there merely to absorb Ukrainian ammunition and time. If they die in Ukraine it just means no more housing them at state expense in prison in Russia.

@Mr.Himars I've heard about these things but how common do you think this happens? Do you know of any similar "trades" that've happened like this? Thats a serious bit of a kit so surely they'll find him? Can understand why since doubt about even getting payment in the Russian military is spewing, in the prisoner recruitment video as well they're not paying just simply releasing after 6 months of duty(aka survival)

[@jari2018]

seems like nothing really has developed since after ww2 the bofors recoilless 20mm has the same values

[@toddabbott781]

@Mr.Himars You do if you throw a track while retreating. There are better pictures that show the left track was in front of the tank on the ground. They likely through it trying to back around trees to get away. I am just surprised they do not destroy all this stuff they have to abandon.

[@toddabbott781]

@@jari2018 It is the round that has no changed.

[@marcelOberauer]

That call for getting a reward for the tank sound like farfetched, no need to break the chains if that was the reason. The Rusians were routing fast, so that mean they have no time to fix the chain and dragging it out would be a slow process if Ukrainians were behind targeting any moving vehicle. The Anzio 20mm rifle is almost useless tho, basically the only use if for defend a main building. The Alligator rifle has better characteristic overall.

Jesus christ thats not a sniper anymore, that qualifies as a literal portable anti-tank gun

Gotta give credit for how you managed to fit both a Mad Max AND a Doom reference into a military analysis video.

[@wscottwatson]

In the late 1970s to early 1980s, I was taught to use the main persona; weapon of the British Army, the 7.62mm SLR. I heard that the bullets were lethal up to 3 miles but I was only able to consistently hit what I was aiming at to a few hundred metres. Every fact about the rifle in this article compares to that

[@sararedfearn4691]

Hello Mr Wilson . I well remember the beloved SLR, (600m max). Do you remember that it could fire a Anti Tank Grenade ?. You fitted a Energa unit the barrel end . This unit held the AT Grenade and a flip up range sight. You also had to have 7.62 ballistic round to fire the Grenade. Point to note, never mix up your ammunition ! !. You can get more information using, You tube. Mr JR ex Inf.

[@alexc4300]

Section fire extended the SLR’s effective range out to 800m or so - basically everyone throws rounds at the target and someone will hit it by chance. But a 2m long rifle with a scope and bipod has far greater accuracy than the SLR, even before being wielded by a talented specialist. Longest confirmed sniper shot (Wikipedia) is nigh-on two miles, so can that be considered a sniper rifle’s effective range?

[@wscottwatson]

@@alexc4300 That was why I phrased my comment the way I did. The trouble with just throwing more rounds at something is that it's random, causes a need for more ammunition and it's so wasteful we might as well have been US troops!
