They need to use the 'war machine' setting.

I never buy pleated skirts because they get depleated when I sit down. Has someone large sat on this war machine?

As a matter of fact, the Ukranian artillery seem to be doing a fairly competent job of "depleating" the Russian tanks and amoured vehicles.

Or even of depleting them!
