Russian arms depot explodes (again) - Polidicks

[quote=BBC News] Russian weapons blast kills eight At least eight people have been killed at a Russian ammunition depot, 10 days after explosions tore through the same site, the defence ministry says. The explosion happened at the Arsenal 31 depot on the outskirts of Ulyanovsk, 900km (550 miles) south-east of Moscow. The dead were reportedly all members of a bomb disposal unit, who were loading live ammunition onto a lorry. The previous explosions and fires killed two soldiers as they attempted to decommission weapons. Two people were also injured in Monday's accident, a defence ministry spokesman said. The blast took place at 1430 (1130 GMT) when the team were clearing the area in the navy base which had been affected by the huge explosions and fire on 13 November. Investigations are under way into both incidents. At the time of the 13 November incident, officials said artillery shells and torpedoes were kept at the arsenal.

It's them damn Americans again. :tinfoil:

Third time is the charm, they say.

i hope it happens again

Wow, I don't even understand how you can have this happen? I wonder how it was started. Someone maybe smoking and a ember starts it all. Kinda reminds me of when my mom set our backyard on fire, than the fire department came and the chief gets out and lights a cigarette. Some people are stupid.

Lol. [editline]05:53PM[/editline] Possibly Static Electricity set off the explosion, but who knows could be a cigarette. Sucks for them.

Good god, if this shit explodes when simply loading it on a truck, I don't think I want to be near the fucking thing when they try to actually fire it.

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;18560260]Good god, if this shit explodes when simply loading it on a truck, I don't think I want to be near the fucking thing when they try to actually fire it.[/QUOTE] They don't fire them. They just lure the enemy into their depots.

I can just imagine a Russian Tank Commander "Charge!...very....carefully."

[QUOTE=Kai-ryuu;18556753]When you're loading live ammo into a truck and trip you are screwed[/QUOTE] Because a light impact makes ammunition explode. Really great fucking logic.

Could have laid the box down too hard and a stone could have been under the primer cap on a round, knock on effect

Why does this make me think of a mission from AoE III
