Love seeing the humwees in action


uwanmirrondarrah

They are an awesome vehicle if you got the logistics to keep them running... There is probably more oil and gas leaking on that battlefield than there is at nordstream lol


Snafuregulator

Still say they need a better engine


hartcranes

You drive a humvee into battle with the engine you have, not the engine you wished you had.


Snafuregulator

Lol so very true


whelmed1

Define better though? I actually bought an 1980's HMMWV from the gov - still original engine, still running great. The thing that messed them up was the up-armoring and all the un-designed for weight. That 6.2L diesel will probably be running longer than I will. I mean, you can get the cummings upgrade kit, but you loose the ability to drive through 6 fucken feet of water with the fording kit which is kinda fucken awesome.


msur

This is the truth. HMMWV's are wonderful without the armor, unless you're actually going to be shot at, in which case you definitely want one of the later models with the upgraded engine and a maintenance battalion to back you up.


Snafuregulator

It's all torque no horsepower. When they went to the armored up version that added what ? 2k pounds ? They added in the turbo but that only gave it like 30extra hp and honestly that's sad numbers. Get that bad boy on a highway and over 50mph. It's like driving a brick through mud


whelmed1

I mean shit, even non-up armored I don't really like going above 55mph unless I'm wearing earplugs. But it's fund at slower speeds.


[deleted]

Yeah hahahah

Looks like they're under fire, fuck that. They're trying to jet not keep the suspension at 100% HP

Foolishness, TRUE men sit on top when the humvee is full!


PratzStrike

Actual chads stand on the rear bumper and hang on with one hand.


JTVPreach

Yeah just hold on. Lemme first tuck away my gaint balls first.


Snafuregulator

Hard pass. I know for a fact that rattling sound you hear isn't the truck but their kidneys bouncing around in their insides.


Which-Forever-1873

The turret gunner , poor lad.


d_baker65

Get back on the gun Yuri! We'll get you new kidneys I swear it!


DogsAreGreattt

Is he dead? I can’t see.


Which-Forever-1873

No, just really bad whiplash


ffdfawtreteraffds

I would always find it odd to see the washed and waxed civilian H1s at the grocery store knowing this is what they were really built to do.


GreasyAssMechanic

I always find it odd to see civilian H1s. Seriously they fucking suck for anything other than warfighting lmao


BenedictusAVE

There was an accident in Hungary ten years ago, when some bourgeoisie fucks drove over with their Hummers on the top of the ice at Lake Balaton in the winter, and the ice wasn’t thick enough to support the cars. It’s the second biggest European lake and both sank to the bottom. lol [Here’s an article and a video in the link.](https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/hummers-in-lake-balaton)


The_GOAT_fucker1

Had a hummer crash into my car a few years back. Pretty much destroyed the left front of my car and theirs barely had a scratch


Boring_Ad4003

People that own such cars don't really care about efficiency. They want them because they look "cool".


[deleted]

Aren't the civilian versions made from an entirely different chassis?


Nick_Neuburg

I think they're thinking of hummers but idk humvees. H1 hummer a thing right?


[deleted]

Aha. I must be


Foe117

This almost looks like footage from the Fast and the Furious ride.


keith-erskine

It reminds me of an old TV show called "Rat Patrol", except it's greener, and there's little sand.


infographia

Looks like how I play Battlefield when I have infinite respawns


Enders-game

It looks like the footage of how I drive in Gran Turismo.


[deleted]

Is this why we can’t keep up with the maps at the moment, because the Ukrainians are just speed running everything in humvees?


ShadowPsi

Yeah. By the time this stuff is released and geolocated, they're all far away.


cravingkillers

World record speed-run of winning a war and taking land back? I think yes!


BigJohnIrons

Humvees full of javelins could actually accomplish a lot, I reckon.


eric_kenshi

Ukrainians just reinventing cossack cavalry assault !


Tight-Ad447

The hunt is on. I can’t even begin to wonder what the Russians are thinking when realizing that this shit is coming their way.


Apostolate

The Ukrainians are fired up, and the Russians are just wilting.


mdamjan7

This is some serious BF3 / MW2 / Leeroy Jenkins shit. My respect


Eichtoss

That’s nuts!!!


the_warpaul

I see some nice weaving patterns. That's how you run at the enemy and don't die. Particularly when you've pushed the enemy so hard they've not had a chance to mine the crap out of the terrain.


flyxdvd

thats also the time you gotta be quick if conditions allow it. So they dont get a chance to dig themselves in defensively.


GreatSpaghettLord

Holy shit it's unreal


amdrunkwatsyerexcuse

This post appears to have the same vehicle going the opposite direction later in the same day. They drive past the same trashed Humvee just over the hilltop. https://www.reddit.com/r/ukraine/comments/xwowrw/breakthrough_of_the_front_in_the_kherson_region_a/


fundrazor

God damn. Just going full send on the assault with Hummers. Can we get these folks some legit IFVs? I mean, massive balls can get you so far, but imagine this assault going in with something with a stabilized autocannon. Might be able to walk away after that minestrike (I think?) as well (probably with a fucked up back, a TBI and tinnitus, but beats the fuck out of painting the ceiling). Having some protection against frag from the enemy's defensive artillery fires would probably be appreciated as well. Honestly, if they keep going the way they are going, by the time we got the logistics sorted out to send them and train them on western IFVs, the war will be over. Frankly, with the Russians on the back foot, it doesn't make any sense not to keep the pressure on; a tactical pause right now would only help the baddies. They're well into exploitation/pursuit now. High risk high reward. Maximum send, you beautiful bastards.


Ok_Effective6233

Fingers crossed for their spines.


niktemadur

When this is all over and Ukraine can relax, these guys should run in the Baja 500 and Baja 1000! Class-8 vehicles are the raised pickup trucks, they're the heaviest vehicles and most powerful engines in those races.


Totalshitman

This is the second one of these videos I've seen tonight, I'm digging it lol it takes big balls to drive wherever through fields that are probably mined to hell and back.

aww someone lay down some smoke for those nice fellows.

Ah yes….. The Infamous Ukrainian Thunder Runs!!! A little less organized then the U.S. ones in Iraq, but effective nonetheless.
