It's not Turkish.I was thinking of the one lower in the article.
has wheels and is cool, enormous cannons. 1st the Tsar Cannon, cast in 1586, the largest cannon by caliber in the world
It is a monument of Russian artillery casting art, cast in bronze in 1586 in Moscow, by the Russian master bronze caster Andrey Chokhov....
the tsar cannon (which was never fired) just like the bell that was never rung......according to Wiki, Doneskt has a copy of one.....

Yep, it isn't, the weird one below it with the screw in breach was though, second biggest. They are like nukes, it was found there is an optimal size and it's much smaller than the biggest thing you can throw.
I read there is something like 100,000 cars abandoned at the border by deserters...The State Duma responded to information about the mobilization of cars of Russians
The Lower House does not rule out that the situation may change
Deputies of the State Duma are not discussing the possible seizure of personal vehicles of Russians for the needs of a special operation. Georgy Karlov, a member of the State Duma Committee on Defense, told Podyom that information about the mobilization of vehicles is nothing more than “rumors, word of mouth and other misunderstandings.” According to him, "nonsense" of this kind is not discussed in the offices of the Lower Chamber, but Karlov does not rule out that the situation may change.
“And everything that goes around is rumors, word of mouth and other misunderstandings. There is no such nonsense within the walls of the Duma, at least not yet. There are no conditions, no need for this, and there is no talk about this either within the Defense Committee or in the State Duma as a whole. Let them sleep peacefully, drive, move, do everything in accordance with the law,” Karlov said.
Earlier it was reported that as part of the mobilization for the needs of the army, not only the population, but also personal cars of citizens can be involved. The law "On mobilization training and mobilization in the Russian Federation" lists an extensive list of vehicles of categories M1G, N1G (off-road vehicles and buses) suitable for the military, from Chevrolet Niva and Nissan X-Trail SUVs to UAZs and GAZs.

In addition, some Russian regions began to publish orders "On the announcement of mobilization", which spelled out, among other things, the procedure for the departure of citizens. In particular, in Tatarstan and Dagestan, citizens must deliver vehicles for registration, including road construction and lifting vehicles, to military registration and enlistment offices. As BFM clarifies , all cars do not need to be transported: only equipment that can potentially be useful in wartime is taken into account.

Some are putting the numbers of draft dodgers at close to 700K now, though a Russian would have to be fairly well off to afford it.
Also like nukes, the one who touches it off has to take special precautions. The article you posted said one canon was set off by touching a mile long stretch of black powder in order to protect the bodies and hearing of the operators. Others provided a barrel full of water for the operator to jump into. I wonder how long it took them to figure that out.
As I mentioned, that's what the big reserves and territorials are for, and I'll bet it's a lot faster and easier to secure your own land. They can move in behind to man the check points and help with logistics, the tasks are endless, and they multiply the combat power of the regular army. I think they might have anticipated this by now, judging by the performance of the Russians.
do tell.

Well, tactical situations @ ground, just to start with, and overall strategic focus. UK has been pushing broadly in the south/southeast, and forces that would have made that strike might have been involved in the penetration & disruption of Kharkiv oblast; the southern strategy may have been to pin in place & reduce red team, induce panic, spark mutinies, sabotage, mass surrenders…while Russia got hit HARD in the north.
Okay. The formulation you chose suggested something different to me.
All russia has to do it leave Ukraine......war would be over.
