nothing says “Russia winning” like 9 Russian helicopters and an air-defense system going kablooie

Ukraine is increasingly reminding me of Hamas and the Gaza Strip.
Their sponsors elsewhere give them just enough resources and munitions, which combined with their idiotic ideological zeal, allow them willingly destroy themselves for the purpose of maintaining a long-term proxy-war.
Great news - for those who want a nuclear war with Vladimir Putin.
I have a theory...
The Democratic Party and RINO Right hate Putin because he shut down the stream of clean kick back cash from Ukraine.
The idea behind giving them weapons was that they would be defensive in nature.
Thousands of missiles and millions of rounds of ammo wasted on a failed, misguided proxy war in Ukraine that could have been given to Israel. That is the ones that aren’t cluster munitions that Israel wouldn’t use because they are violation of international law.
yeah and I buy skinny jeans...
LOL, plenty of videos, recorded by Russians, showing attack and destruction of Russian helicopters.
Big Ukrainian strikes overnight on Russian military airfields in occupied Berdyansk and Luhansk
Bad news to be ridiculed by the Ukraine haters.
Unlike the stories of “victory in the battlefield”, I tend to believe the stories of Ukraine causing damage when they are using long ranged missiles provided by the US.
Of course, this will not end well for Ukraine, as I doubt that Russia is going to withdraw from the areas they’ve annexed. Russia will eventually go in and take over whatever areas these missiles can be launched from.
Wait for satellite confirmation.
There is a good track record for such specific Ukrainian claims.
In a PR operation that is surely going to backfire, Russians just posted proof that US technology from 1996(!!) Just bypassed a whole series of Russia's most advanced air defense units to destroy 9 of their helicopters.
1996 is clearly production date on the shell.
And just like all the other western “wonder weapons” (Javlins, HIMARs, Excalibur, Bradlys, Leopards… ), not a game changer. In a month Russia will have one on display in Red Square, captured after being abandoned on the battlefield, or sold on the local corrupt Ukrainian black market. First though, it is reverse engineered, it’s technologically pirated, then defensive exploits are developed and it’s effectiveness is depleted.
Too little, too late
Sad
Fired by and targeted by American troops.
