Why is Ukraine's only shipbuilding company now making volunteer stoves?

October 5th 2022|

Why the only shipbuilding company in Ukraine is now making volunteer stoves instead of fulfilling government orders is a fucking rhetorical question. PATAMUSHTA GLADIOLUS! Well, we are happy about the stoves! Or rather, long-burning convection stoves... Let's make a rough estimate. One stove is needed for a conditional ward of 10 people. This is a good scenario in which

Infantry and airborne, TRO and artillery

October 3rd 2022|

Infantry and paratroopers, armored vehicles and artillery, medics and signalmen. All are doing the same thing, moving forward and clearing our land of evil spirits. But... The most important thing in this movement is logistics, and I mean that seriously - without it, everything will stop. Provide electricity to a temporary headquarters or command post? To supply power to outpatient clinics? Repair of equipment

Stoves... convection ovens, solid fuel boilers. Again about them, dear ones

October 2nd 2022|

That is, we are talking about stoves. And this solid fuel boiler - we are also using a stove to make it work. Of course, it protests, shows its automation, explains its dopeness. Nope, it's a stove. There are two points here. Firstly, buying a good solid fuel stove is a real challenge nowadays! And this is understandable, we are adults and understand what you need to be prepared for

Everything is fine... except for the Euro6 engine

October 1st 2022|

Somehow, 10 identical IVECO Eurocargo trucks ended up in one military unit, but that's not the point of this post. The motherland gave it to us - it's already a blessing. It's a hard-working truck, a good hostess, it's "urban", and it's not the first line of work for these trucks. All in all, nothing seemed to portend trouble. Only the engine is Euro6, and

Volunteer math

September 28th 2022|

Yuriy Biriukov, ambassador of the NGO "Sprava Hromadas", about math: I don't like volunteer math and I'll show you why. We found almost 300 army trucks in the UK. These are DAF Leyland trucks, which you have already seen in my posts. We have signed a contract for 242 vehicles, and we are gradually assembling

A truckload of stoves (convection long-burning stoves) sounds proud!

September 26th 2022|

Drizzling rain, water dust, and a beautiful but ugly word in the weather program - "darkness" - all day long. At night, the temperature drops to 5-6 degrees Celsius, a few more weeks will pass and in the morning the puddles will be covered with a weightless crust of the first ice. It is cold. Cold and nasty. You want to get warm. So, the first

O - optimization

September 26th 2022|

"O" stands for optimization. Instead of sending four drivers to Lviv to drive two trucks and two pickups, we sent two. Because it's wrong to spend money on tickets and fuel when you can haul cargo in a truck. Yes, but the pickup truck has a small load in the back. That's how we transport it.

A box for UAH 624,892

September 25th 2022|

A box for 624,892 hryvnias. No, this is not a typo! The box itself is called a firewall. What? Isn't that clearer? :) And this firewall costs 192,031 hryvnias. Is it expensive? Is it not expensive? And the box, yes, the firewall, comes with software with a three-year license. And here is the software itself

Hromadske takes truck transportation to a new level of optimization

September 24th 2022|

Sunday... September 24. Hromadas' business is reaching a new level of optimization of truck transportation on the Lviv-Kyiv route. The Poland-Ukraine route has already been optimized by using Maryna Poroshenko's carriage! But really...? Why drive cars once again, if there are DAF-LEYLAND donkeys )) This story will be continued...

This is a complex and comprehensive project

September 21st 2022|

It was supposed to be an epic post about our complex project, we just made a photo report (there is no "staging"), raised all the numbers, but... Yes, it is a complex and comprehensive project, it is two hundred trucks that we are slowly dragging out and moving from the state of "ten years of oblivion" to the status of "start and go". Yes, it is very
