✅Olga Harlan's victorious saber turned into 16 Saber turrets for the defenders!

This was made possible thanks to your donations during the auction and raffle of the flag with the champion's signature and the opportunity to meet her for coffee.

🫶Many thanks to Metalist 1925 for the winning contribution of 10,000,000 and everyone who joined!

"Sabres", which we purchased for UAH 11,679,254 from the auction and raffle, have already left for the military with 5 OSHBr, 25 OPDBr and 57 OMpBr.

🇺🇦Together to victory!

Ugh these things are horrifying.

Imagine some platoon coming across one of these buried in thick brush, and it just waits for the squad to get close before targeting all with thermal and wiping them out before anyone even realizes where the shooting is coming from. I hate that these things exist, even if they save some good guys.

I can't imagine the horrors these will be used for in the next 20 years. I am not excited for the sketchy PmCs that will get these.

Time to design foss emp weapons I guess.

wait did they turn the TF2 turret into a REAL THING?

Certainly not as cute as a TF2 sentry, but looks more than capable of solving practical problems.

It'll certainly be a nasty surprise for any invader to have just one of these in a location. And if that doesn't work? Use more gun!

You just described every Call of Duty team I've had ever
