hard to believe how complex technological process needs to be used to create such piece of hardwareOh, boy. I don't know that this is for real, but I find it all too easy to believe:
Why is that bridge still standing? It must be a critical target.
And yet with such rubbish hardware the Russians hold 20% of Ukrainian territory. Good enough is good enough.Oh, boy. I don't know that this is for real, but I find it all too easy to believe:
No it isnt. Gains are payed in blood and losses of material. Remember 3:1. Russia will not run out of men just yet but it will on hardware. That was not the glorious plan. And winter will come. Souds familiar? They are not soviets not even by a long shot. Gains without depth are dangerous. Ask Paulus.And yet with such rubbish hardware the Russians hold 20% of Ukrainian territory.

I think that in some major ways Russia is running out of men. Not in the physical actual number of people in the population, of even the number who qualify as being in the reserves, but in the number he can actually use.No it isnt.

We came across stuff like this all the time when I was in Iraq. The UN "Oil for Food" program was rife with corruption.It will be interesting to see who originated the shipment, and who arranged the logistics - one or both actors will be in serious trouble.
First Gepards are in Ukraine according to local sources.
Total order is 30 and the problem with ammunition production was reported as resolved.
Hopefully, they will help to shoot some cruise missiles.
Well I hope the Russians don't find a way to remove Zelenskiy and replace him with a friendly puppet. A dowry of Western arms would bring a smile to Putler's mug.
The window for that has closed. The national mood is firmly anti Russian. Certainly Zelenskyy can be killed, but Ukraine isn't a Russian-like autocracy or dictatorship - there is no metaphorical head of the snake to cut off. Ukraine has a functioning democratic government. Ruslan Stefanchuk, the chairman of the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's parliamentary body, and a close ally of Zelenskyy would take office if Zelenskyy was unable to perform his duties, with limited powers as "acting president" until a new election is conducted. If both these guys die, then Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal will administer the state until the President and chairman are replaced. There is an established succession process - no Russian puppet is getting in again - 2014's expulsion of Putin's man Viktor Yanukovych saw to that.Well I hope the Russians don't find a way to remove Zelenskiy and replace him with a friendly puppet.
Unlike the UAF and its successfully targeting of over a dozen generals, the Russians seem to be purely inept at liquidating their opposing generals.What about the heads of the military?
