Wagner Group, maybe? :E

Heh! What a naughty thought!

[Wirbelsturm]

It does seem fitting given the current Commander in Chiefs total disregard/ignorance for the military. :rolleyes:

(At least he can guarantee a vote from those guys. :E:E:E)

[sangiovese.]

Two m’s in committee. Only one in Mig though...

[a5in_the_sim]

Is it a picture of UK forces in retreat?

[MPN11]

Is that an AK rifle barrel on the right?

AK-12? (https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2017/03/13/russia-will-adopt-ak-12-aek-971-assault-rifles/), maybe?

I don't think DT personally made this but rather one of the legion of over educated young idiots who can't spell or know what they say!

Very true. DT would have had the main thrust as 'Support our Suckers'. :rolleyes:

Hardly surprising - Sec Def posted a 4 July celebratory Tweet of the Reds flying over The Statue of Liberty. This Administration has form for both ignorance and seemingly taking delight in it.

Cheers,Arthur Zakirov. Scroll down that page and you get ...Five soldiers of different armies on the smooth floor.https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/five-soldiers-different-armies-on-smooth-404306743

Details ... they are soooo important! 😎

It’s entirely correct, thanks to his chum, Mr Putin!

The ad first appeared on Sept. 8 and ran until Sept. 12 (https://transparencyreport.google.com/political-ads/advertiser/AR488306308034854912/creative/CR14945867714789376).

Well, not what I usually think about on 9/11...

Finally, truth in advertising !

[treadigraph]

Finally, truth in advertising !
Don't you mean "pravda" in advertising? :p

Our parent company's marketing department produced an aviation services brochure which included our various airfield engineering design services - airfield pavements, drainage, lighting, etc. Instead of asking us for some photos of airfield pavements etc, they chose some pretty crappy Shutterstock images, one of which was a 3D model or something which seemed to show a 747 taking off from a flooded runway - not quite the impression we would have wished to convey...

The picture has not been linked to any Trump campaign program. It's a fake.

No, that bit at the bottom about the Trump Make America Great Again Committee is probably just an irrelevance.

I did have a look at their small print
95% of each contribution to DJTP, to be designated toward its 2020 general election account, up to a maximum of $2,800 ($5,000). 5% of each contribution to the RNC’s Operating account, up to a maximum of $35,500 ($15,000).
Seems to be a good deal, being a fundraiser in the US

[FinelyChopped]

Yup. Someone can't spell committee.
Attention to detail, folks.

[Fonsini]

Apparently this happened the other day as well....

Old news - Batman did this first in the 60's

[Just a spotter]

Reminds me of the incidents in the UK where in 2009 the British National Party (BNP) and then later in 2014 Britain First used images of a Spitfire to do a bit of rabble rousing against foreign types.

In both cases they used the image of an aircraft that carried the markings of a WWII RAF Polish squadron.

Driving through Mildenhall town earlier this week, I had to smile when I passed the local car dealership. On the name board is a cut out of .........(drum roll) a Mig 25 Foxbat.
It's been there for over 20 years, so even then, people couldn't get it right, could they?

[Doctor Cruces]

Nah, just another advert on behalf of Trump's paymaster in the Kremlin.

[Two's in]

The military times found a better example...
