Winter will be harder on the Russian side, especially those on the wrong side of the Dnipro.
I agree. The UAF's tanks, AFVs and IFVs will need to stick to the roads, but they won't get stuck in massive traffic jams for lack of fuel and organization like the Russians outside Kyiv. Instead smaller batches of UAF armour will rush the border roads, with drone-guided truck-mounted HIMARS hitting everything from well back.I honestly doubt that the onset of the wet months of Fall and then Winter setting in will curb the Ukrainian offensive. It may slow their momentum, but Russia best not assume that bad weather is going to keep them safe.
They'll steal from the locals. As Hitler said, all of the enemy will starve before one of his own goes hungry.I'm thinking that they're going to have problems staying warm: fuel for portable heaters, jackets and winter boots for the grunts…
And better terrain for the UAF's T-72 tanks vs. heavy Abrams or Leo2s.Lots of side roads in the rural areas of Ukraine that have been maintained by the farmers which would be accessible and passable by military equipment.

I have no doubt that Ukraine will have all the winter equipment and winter fighting kit/training they'll need.I hope and think that (the UAF) is equipped for this sort of thing.

How will the M-55S' L7 105mm gun perform against Russian T-72s? I believe early Cold War testing against captured Russian tanks was one of the reasons the British expedited development of the 120 mm rifled gun for the Chieftain, and Rheinmetall their Rh-120 smoothbore that replaced the L7 in pretty much everything else.
Honeywell can't even make a decent thermostat. Can engines or parts be any better?Its getting off-topic but the biggest issue with AGT1500 engines from the Abrams is the supply of parts from Honeywell.
The Russians will steal whatever provisions and winter clothing they want from the locals.The news of Russia's soldiers in Donbas lacking warm clothes as winter approaches was reposted by the Head of the Donetsk People's Republic, Denis Pushilin.
Shades of 1941? "Winter clothing? It'll be over before snow fly." You'd think the Russians, of all people, would know better.

No one owes anyone their attention nor a reply. That said, I have not suggested that such theft will be effective, only that like most invaders they will try to live off the land through theft and pillaging, to the detriment of the locals.since you ignored it the first time I wrote it-- a thin reed upon which to base plans.
