Mobile dirty bombs?

I'm just thinking that, ya' know, he's been kinda cavalier about losses so far. I just see him inadvertently setting up a radioactive border with Ukraine while cleverly maneuvering behind his own lines.

He will also be reducing the Russian Army's payroll in response to the West's Special Economic Re-Bureautization that accidentally included Russia's loot.

Any chance Ukraine can retake Crimea? A third Siege of Sevastopol?

Just the geological situation would make the Crimea difdicult to retake, in light of the Ukraine military's numerical disadvantage.
They would need to somehow bolster their naval assets to counter Russia's Black Sea fleet.

If only the Ukrainians had a trio of Kilos.
A couple/three Type 214 submarines would be even better.

True, but If the Russian ASW is anything like their tactics on land any relatively modern SSKs will do the job.

In a way Russia has done Ukraine a favour, since there's no way Ukraine could have attempted to take the Donbas region militarily before without Russia attacking and likely the West muttering about Kiyv destabilizing the region. Now, Russia's already in the fight, the world recognizes the Donbas as Ukrainian territory, and Ukranin may have the ability to once and for all retake the region.

The Crimea is still internationally recognized as Ukraine's territory, so *if* Ukrainian forces were to somehow liberate it, it would be accepted as a legitimate action (except by the whiney bitch, of course).

What would happen if tomorrow Russia rolls tanks into Latvia? Article 5, I know, but would NATO reaction be? All out attack on Russian military forces world wide, or just a stomping of whatever tanks and men have rolled into Latvia?

A good caution on combat vids.

You mean with the invisible tanks lining the border today? Evidence of an intended invasion by land would become apparent over several weeks/months. Plenty of time for NATO to build up in kind.

With what? The major share of their active armed forces are bogged down in the south.
NATO reaction should the Russians be that dumb would likely to be to stamp out the brush fire in the Baltics, and then impose a no-fly zone over Ukraine, as hostilities have already been commenced by the Russians and the NFZ gets a pass after attacking NATO.
It'd be a foolish move by the Russians and guarantee their defeat on both fronts.
World-wide, I'd think NATO would consider blockading all Russian ports, at the very most, rather than opening active combat fronts.
