      Part of the reason why i ended up re-enlisting two years after i completed my conscription service. Got tired of sitting on my ass, waiting for meaningful stuff to happen. So i went out to look for 'em. It's actually quite funny to think ive been to overseas as a reservist, granted as an active duty one. I always imagined those kinds of trips would happen only if you went for the right branch to do your military service in.

      Having to building more military power to protect from invasions from imperialistic nationalistic countries is difficult to see in a very positive light. Having to do what needs to be done is more miserable than positive.

    It's a bit bragging since Norway already has fully switched to F35 . The exercise lasted through March and April 2022 and was led by the Norwegian Armed Forces' operational headquarters (FOH). The first allied troops arrived in Norway in the autumn and winter of 2021-22 to train and prepare for the exercise. The military activity mainly took place in south-east Norway, central Norway and parts of northern Norway.

    As a 44y fin, I can tell you that at first, during the winter time, there most likely isn't light. It's dark during the daytime also for the big % of Scandinavia. So forget those awesome looking gears, cause you don't see them 😅
    At second, it is so cold, you can't imagine it from the video. There was few seconds of the reality where wet snow is flying to your face in the wind. Ad the darknes and wet clothes to that moment and it begins to look real.

    I volunteered for extra guard shifts because I wanted to be there and take in the scenery. It's my fondest memory from my time as a conscript.

      Foreign support in the Winter War consisted of materiel, men and moral support to the Finnish struggle against the Soviet Union in the Winter War. World opinion at large supported the Finnish cause. The Second World War had not yet begun in earnest and was known to the public as the Phoney War; at that time, the Winter War saw the only real fighting in Europe besides the German and Soviet invasion of Poland, and thus held major world interest. The Soviet aggression was generally deemed unjustified. Various foreign organizations sent material aid, such as medical supplies. Finnish immigrants in the United States and Canada returned home, and many volunteers (one of them future actor Christopher Lee) traveled to Finland to join Finland's forces: 8,700 Swedes, 1,010 Danes (including Christian Frederik von Schalburg, a captain in the Danish Royal Life Guards and later commander of the Free Corps Denmark, a volunteer unit created by Nazi Germany in Denmark during World War II), about 1,000 Estonians, 850 Ukrainians,[1][better source needed] 725 Norwegians, 372 Ingrians, 366 Hungarians,[2] 346 Finnish expatriates, 4 Latvians, 2 Lithuanians and 190 volunteers of other nationalities made it to Finland before the war was over.

  • @Zardagbum
    @Zardagbum 11 дней назад

    Regarding the rifle, it is an AK variant, the RynnäkköKivääri62 (literally AssaultRifle62). But it's a really early one and pretty much the best of the bunch. The Finns tightened the design somewhat, the result needing a bit more maintenance but yielding greater accuracy and better overall durability. The Israeli Galil was based on the RK62. I'm not sure but I think the latest official model is still the RK95. When I served (2009-10), most rifles in my company were RK76's, with some variability between grips. Some had the so called "cheese grater" (a hole-y cylinder), some a somewhat more modern looking one, both plastic. All had the classic tube stock with your firearm maintenance kit stored inside. I saw some with folding tube stocks, but not many.
    It's a good gun at it's core, but it has its drawbacks. First of all, any optics installed on the top of it are going to be very unstable thanks to some core AK design principles - or flaws, depending on how you look at it. The Finns tightened the design enough for it to work consistently with aperture rear sights and tritium night sights, but it shakes too much for modern optics. Secondly, it's main cartridge isn't - to my limited knowledge - that commonly used among NATO allies (going historically alone against the soviets they thought they'd be getting a lot more ammunition from the soviets than the west). I believe the FDF and Försmakten are in the process of introducing a new service rifle to serve both forces, simplifying both future co-operability and modernization.

  • @sakari6273
    @sakari6273 29 дней назад

    Someone probably commented about the weapon already but: yes, it is an AK variant with the first introduction in 1962. So, the original type name is "RK-62" as in "RynnäkköKivääri-62", "assault rifle model 62".
    Since then several upgrades has been made. Some test series in caliber 5.56 was made as well as in some .308. "Civil" /semi-auto versions of the weapon has been available (at least until the version M92), but the latest (to my knowledge) M95 wasn't available for reservists anymore. The M95 (again to my knowledge) is already pretty modern AK if you like - side bar using Weaver that can mount the usual things such as scope, holo, red dot and probably a thermal sight too. The weapon is machined from a single piece of high quality steel instead of pressing it from some piece of whatever iron.
    The "downside" of the rifle has been considered the fact that it typically can't "eat" iron cased shells. Also unlike (typically?) other AKs, the weapon doesn't usually tolerate the changing of the lock & bolt action. Dunno if this is true, and if it is, I can't figure out why not.

    Imagine a ghost recon type shooter where you enter a conflict on different fronts depending what NATO member you join. These guys would look so sick in that snow gear, those tanks too were lit.

    They’re also training with the danish troops in naval warfare. There was a recent naval training exercise led by the British and danish forces. Plus most Nordic countries are also training Ukrainian forces. I’ve seen some fly over here and know that they are training out in the countryside as well.

    Winter combat is awesome. There are no insects camouflage is easy as you only need one colour and traveling on ski's is like a superpower if the snow is a bit hard.
    Ski combat is the best and you can ride on ski's after a vehicle and be so far back you don't hear the engine and can just enjoy nature in silence, it's like being on a very fast "T" ski lift.
    I did 10 months conscription in Boden in northern Sweden.

    I did my Swedish military service in the 80s up in there in the north of the country. One part of me thinks this is way cool to watch and the other part of me kind of whispers “yeah, but it was also fracking cold and horrible to live trough”. When temperatures drop to minus thirty Celsius and below (I experienced that), things just break or don't work the way they did when it was warmer. Batteries can't hold charge, it's impossible. Rubber and plastics turn into wood, diesel turns into syrup. It hurts breathing, always be in motion.
    It was also astonishingly beautiful at times. Guard duty at night under a starlit sky (no moon) with the northern lights crackling above. I'll never forget that.
    I swore to my family, when I got back, that I would never ever complain about warm weather again. And I've kept that promise forty years later. I froze enough to last a lifetime. Mad respect for these men.
    [edit] this was probably filmed when the temperature was no lower than minus ten Celsius. They are not wearing gloves, there is hardly any condensation from the breathing and the film cameras work.
    Cheers 🍺

    It is almost all verry modern compared to when I did my military service in the first half of the eigthies.
    We had sheet metal helmets and certainly no body armour.
    It was also before thye time of CV90, CB90 Archer etc.
    What we did have which is still i use are, KSP58, Hägglunds band wagons (not the armoured version), AK4 (mostly now with the home guard), Carl Gustav anti armour recoil less rifles, Volvo all terrain vehicles 4x4, 6x6 and 6x6 troop transport trucks. Those were my main mood of transport back in the day.
    Things we were never allowed to let go of in the field were the gun (AK4), the helmet and the gas mask.
    Other things could be dumped if need be but never those.
    I do not really see soldiers with gas masks any more.
    I have also noticed that Ukrainian soldiers do not seem to have them. So they are vonourable to chemical weapons.
    How come?
    Are gas masks bno longer faschinable?
    If nothing else, I used my gas mask bag as my pillow at night in the fiels.
    It also has som room for chocholate bars and toilet paper etc.
    Verry handy in the field.

    Our defence forces are for real. nothing to laught about in this video. UK and Swedes under monarchy are just protect the royal family. U have no war experience. Like Finns. but most important is the fact that for u it is to playing war. Not defend your country....That why we have defence forces not army. We help in Ukraine as a volunteers. And u are hyping like attacking forces are great. I would like to do that!🤣 Just go to Ukraine to help and u get all kinds off cool war experiences.

    Just a point of levity here, but you might want to reconsider your thumbnail facial profile a bit. That gobsmacked expression of yours on all your thumbnails is a bit over-the-top.😆😉👍 3:01 Now, there's something that I think would be very interesting to see, some original content explaining what it is that you actually did in the Royal Marines.💡 That is, your deployments, any noteworthy exercises or combat experience. I have always been fascinated and intrigued by individual acts of courage and/or heroism.👍

    Finnish rifle is a Finland made variant of AK. We call it RK. 7.62x39 originally, but there is bunch made ready for NATO cartridges too. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RK_62

    • @hmmm9806
      @hmmm9806 Месяц назад

      All the service rifles are produced in 7.62x39 but there are a semi-automatic civilian and export variants made for NATO calibers. RK comes from the Finnish word 'rynnäkkökivääri' which means an assault rifle in English.

      Yeah it was always "yellow state" on training. But by the popular joke, someone once asked "but what if the enemy comes from the west?" To which officer leading the training answered "yes you are right, Russia might try to flank us trough Sweden"...
      Anyways nowadays they just talk about Russia directly. (after the invasion in Ukraine started).
