The VDV Assault - Steel Division 2 Memes

The WW2 VDV didn't do too hot either....

[@Gamer-is6ew]

Eeeek

[@tomjordan7606]

Ukraine conflict moment.....

[@QFizzle1992]

Like that one time when they dropped an airborne corps across the Dnieper river directly on top of an active German Panzer division and an active German mechanized division with almost no air cover and without bothering to suppress the AA defenses? "Didn't do too hot" is underselling it. (Vyazma airborne operation is what the operation was called by the way)

Duality of Swimmy. Get absolutely BTFO'd by infantry due to his tiny brain, then in the next game utterly demolishes them with 4d chess (stream sniping) Karl-Gerät bombardments.

[@DW-yo8bc]

The VDV just seem to have a bad time perpetually.

[@QFizzle1992]

The Vyazma Airborne Operation comes to mind. The Soviets dropped an Airborne corps across the Dnieper river directly on top of an active German panzer division (and a mechanized division as well) due to shitty aerial intelligence and they did it with almost no air cover and without suppressing the AA defenses. It was a massacre.

[@coatofarms4439]

@@QFizzle1992 Monty must have used this for inspiration when he "planned" Operation Market Garden.

[@MajinOthinus]

That's because while Soviet and later Russian doctrine emphasizes special forces they are often not actually properly trained for the operations they're supposed to do and the commanders, both in high command and field command, are even less capable of their actual employment. Not that the general army was or is well trained for its job either.

[@Blackwatch8800]

@@MajinOthinusAt least Soviets had the industrial capacity to actually deploy their VDV assets in sufficient enough numbers and potentially recover from whatever casualties they took. Modern Russia doesn’t even have that. Their aviation industry is mostly gone, arms industry had to survive on export contracts rather than state ones. If VDV as a corps survives Ukraine, I’m not sure how long they’ll need to rebuild.

[@azarshadakumuktir4551]

@@MajinOthinus I wouldn't be so categorical, most badly planned VDV operations were done either in a desperate context (WW2) or as part of a larger far too ambitious plan that didn't really take into account local specifics (Ukraine, Chechnya and Afghanistan). I think they are well trained but how do you want them to hold an airport with absolutely no support because their mechanized support got into a traffic jam or some hill despite being surrounded by enemies specializing in guerilla tactics? Those kind of mistakes are not tied to the russian doctrine but to how imperialistic nations have often a way too positive assessment of their military capabilities. Germans did the same with Stalingrad, french did the same with Dien Bien Phu, British in the Netherlands or Americans and Chinese in Vietnam. These failures are simply tied to overflowing pride and arrogance in a few medal covered cronies who think they can rule the world as they please. You can laugh at the VDV and Russia all you want but be carefull that your country doesn't end up the same way.

[@williamking579]

True Russian tactics. "Sir, we are completely out matched!" "No surrender."

On a training excercize to Ukraine we'll put in practice what we have trained By choppers, planes and even by sea we showed the true might of the VDV VDV - take off the strip Two hundred men on a one-way trip didn't even do the anti-air supperession now who is the twat who planned this mission? VDV - in the Heaven I'll meet Fallschirmjägers from the battle of Crete This whole mission was a bloody disgrace Airborne drops in contested airspace? Hostomel airport needst to be taken Port of Odessa needs to be awaken who else to send but the VDV? Day, night, drop us where you need VDV - no braver men you'll get Jumped in the Black Sea after sunset tried our best to swim to the shore Didn't quite make it and they're flying out more VDV, any casualties? Javelins cooking off our BMDs under heavy fire at the airport what the hell happened to our air support? (We need air support!) New orders came from top brass up high looks like it's time to say goodbye Loading up the jet, we're packed like sardines still no air superiority, you know what it means! VDV - the missle hit our jet! looked around and most of my squad are dead those who made it are hunted like sport what the fuck happened to our air support? VDV - our lives thrown away! Another drop in the middle of the day posted on the Twitter before we touch down why did we jump into this goddamned town? VDV - the lesson not learned sending us by helos just to get burned my entire company deleted by drones nothing survivest but some charred bones VDV - when will it end? how many of us are going to be sent surrounded, cut off, our lives cut short when are we getting that air support? (We need that air support!) VDV - we're in trouble deep we're hit so badly it makes me weep All around us is carnage and mayhem The British planned their jump better at Arnhem! VDV - the world laughs at us our reputation's gone and so our status Our CO's dead and everyone us mock we're gone from the elites into laughingstock
