I did post about such in an article a week or two ago.No one is talking about what would happen if Russia used the one weapon it has used in the past without any comeback from the west, and that is Chemical Weapons. No doubt there would be a response, but I would be surprised if the smaller countries in the west or those less 'active' in the support of Ukraine such as France, fully took part
Thoughts on the M60 to Ukraine?
Idea: Why Not Send Old U.S. M60 Tanks to Ukraine?
There are many who are calling for the U.S. to send tank to help Ukraine fight Russia. One possible model is the old M60 tank.www.19fortyfive.com
American Tanks For Ukraine Are 'Absolutely On The Table'
There is already speculation about the possibility of U.S.-made M1 Abrams tanks heading to Ukraine, but there are other potential options.www.thedrive.com
So, what changes now?
U.S. Law On Lend-Lease For Ukraine Comes Into Force
On Saturday, October 1, the law of the United States of America on lend-lease for Ukraine entered into force. Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Ruslamenafn.com
Every encirclement successfully completed by Ukraine not only liberates territory, it also traps Russian men and materiel, further diminishing Russia's military capability.
Watching Ukrainians haul away Russian equipment just never gets old.
And a nod from Guderian, too.I think it wasGrauGeist who wrote that Rommel and Patton would approve. I heartily agree with both of you: they are inside the flow, the Ukrainian Army.

Like I mentioned earlier, this war and Ukraine's offensive tactics in particular, will be textbook material in war colleges and academies when all is said and done.
Nice work! I'll be even more excited when the Ukrainian navy gets its first AIP SSK. Maybe something from Turkey?
That's one way around the Bosphorus being closed to all military.
And a nod from Guderian, too.
Unfortunately not. Istanbul Naval Shipyard straddles the Bosporus strait, on the wrong side, rather than being in the Black Sea.That's one way around the Bosphorus being closed to all military.
Of course we will all find flaws with the movie version.And a nod from Guderian, too.
Over the past seven months, the Ukraine military has gotten a feel both for Russia's ability and ineptitude, and are now exploiting what they've learned.
The water principle in combat is a calculated risk but pays handsomely when done properly.

"Panzer Leader"?I was thinking the same thing. It almost makes me want to get his book off my shelf and read it again.
