Good article on what appears to be a realistic assessment from the Ukraine's military CINC.

The General has a longer piece titled "Modern Positional Warfare and how to win it"

And please don’t waste your time replying that I am an Ukraine or Russia apologist. I am neither - and do adhere to the Powell Doctrine, although it needs an update due to the increasing use of proxies fighting in high tech military actions.

Another 40 billion dollar “breakthrough”. Here it comes.

There is no stalemate. The Russians are grinding the Ukrainian military into powder. THAT IS THE OBJECTIVE.

Ukraine is running out of manpower, ammo, weapons and funding.

An almost five-month counteroffensive resulted in Ukraine losing 100,000 more troops and gaining back nothing.

Give it up. We're tired of wasting tax dollars on this failed proxy war, the biggest US policy failure since Vietnam.

All the Ukraine General needs to win war against Ruzzia is just $60 Billion U.S Taxpayer
Dollars.

Ukraine made Russia retreat 17km. Russia is no longer a superpower.

A stalemate indicates a draw making the headline of this article nonsense.

I am of the opinion that it is NOT a land battle. It is an attrition battle. Winning means inflicting 500,000 killed or wounded. There is a long way to go in order to get to that number. So for now, a stalemate.

The F-35 was designed for this battlefield.

Total BS. There is no chance of any breakthrough, there is no chance the Ukes can win. There was never any chance the Ukes could win. It was obvious from the beginning. Anyone still promoting this lie is either in on the money grab or a complete fool. All that graft for Zelensky and crew and the DC oligarch at the mere price of 500,000 dead Ukrainians and a destroyed country. Now that the corrupt gravy train of cash has been derailed by Hamas, the Uke war criminals like Zelensky will soon be off to Miami or the Riviera to enjoy all those millions they’ve been collecting while the youth of Ukraine was being slaughtered.

Yes it’s a good article, thank you. Despite the stalemate I have to believe Russia could be defeated by a larger (equal size)
army because it’s being held in check by a much smaller force.
Ukraine needs some quick breakthrough like a landing by sea or paratroopers behind the lines.
But I gather technology also makes it difficult to insert forces in those ways.
I hope we and our allies are building on this experience.
It seems the new technologies could stymie a Chinese attack on Taiwan.
Begun, these drone wars have.
