We are not taught full auto in today's army.A bit.
Full-auto is suppressive fire. You aren't expected to hit anything. You're just supposed to prevent return fire.
Continuous fire is not the same as cumulative fire. Firing for 15 seconds straight means your position is so fucked that a 5-10 second barrel replacement is the least of your concerns. If you're able to instead fire more sensible 3-5 second bursts, you're going to keep their heads down without necessitating a barrel change pretty much ever.An MG3 needs a barrel replacement after about 15 seconds of continuous fire.
EDIT: An MG3 ain't gonna do what a crew-served water-cooled WWI-era machine gun was gonna do: "sit there and fire all day".
There's a reason why 40mm Bofors AA guns were water-cooled instead of air-cooled. This made them heavier but meant the crews didn't need to do barrel replacements while enforcing a "no fly zone".Continuous fire is not the same as cumulative fire.

You dint use continuous fire in modern day combat.There's a reason why 40mm Bofors AA guns were water-cooled instead of air-cooled. This made them heavier but meant the crews didn't need to do barrel replacements while enforcing a "no fly zone".
IIRC the the WWI example I suggested was British machine gun crews getting off 2 million rounds while only swapping out barrels because the barrel got too old instead of too hot.

On the other side, is the word of an american diplomat - use a ton of salt.
Lol, yeah... Down from "Russia will take Kiev in the first week." to "Russia will cut off the entire Ukrainian army in an eastern pocket." to "Russia planned things this way so they could turn the entire Donbas into a cauldron and wipe out the best of Ukrainian forces." to "Russia will surround Severodonetsk and trap a significant force there." to "Oh yeah? Well, by throwing men into a meat grinder Russia have eventually, almost taken the city through direct, frontal fighting."
But sure, it's everyone else dealing cope.
Go on...
And be specific. I want to know what was specifically countered by what you quoted in the Independent article.
Anyone who has bothered to study warfare knows this signals a coming collapse of the Ukrainian Army.
Any idea when?
When USA stop paing and sending stuff.Which they do when KGBstan FINALLY agree to anti-China allaince which would save their Siberia.Any idea when?
That barely even makes sense as a response... OK boomer, is it time we need to up your meds again?And sadly for you, none of this is true outside your head, which I live in rent free.
