Wow, that was sure clever. It really added a lot to the conversation.
It seems to me that “Russian media sources” cause as much trouble as our own.
If they REALLY cared, they’d investigate all the long years of corruption and fraud that’s taken place by government and military officials. There’s a reason Russia can’t win in Ukraine, and it’s not just military planning, but failures in supply, logistics, armaments and fundamental training.
But any Russian journalists doing so would probably be launched out of top story windows.
Orange Putin bad!
Globohomo puppet good!
Nuclear war fun!

Of note, DJI are now selling a commercial drone "DJI Mavic 3 Thermal".
Here's a link to a video:
I want one.
What do you mean “lose”?

Putin focusing drone and cruise missile attacks on Zelinsky’s home town Kryvyi Rih with double and triple tap strikes. Temper tantrum since he can’t hit Kyiv hard anymore.
For anyone who wants to respond.
Did the Russian soldiers in the field ever get adequate winter gear, for wearing and sleeping?
With Putin planning the celebration event on the 22nd, are there any indications of where the big combat events are going to be happening in the next 10 days, or what is planned to produce good news for him?

However, the Ukrainians discovered them on time and destroyed them with their artillery.
.........
Was the discovery of Russian armor a function of the new intelligence system. Or the old system?
You would not be privy to that information.
But one may be able to infer the answer the question from publicly available information.
Have there been examples in the past where Russian armor has taken the Ukes by surprise? (except for the first days of the war. That turned out badly for the russians.)
The reason I ask is because I just don’t recall any examples of Russian armor being used profitably since the war began.
All the news is just about russian tanks that drive to the front and die. And die with futility.
Lately I’ve seen more than one report of russian tank units being decimated. (they could all be different versions of one engagement.)
One might be able to ascertain any step change in the quality of intelligence by the rate at which the russian armor is being decimated.
And a third time.
“I ordered the take down of an unidentified object that violated Canadian airspace. @NORADCommand shot down the object over the Yukon. Canadian and U.S. aircraft were scrambled, and a U.S. F-22 successfully fired at the object.”

Yeah, that’s how Russians win wars. They throw equipment and men at it. I think they lost 10 million people in WWII.
The Ukrainians are toast.
Modern Russia does not have 10 million men to lose. Or 500,000 for that matter.
“are there any indications of where the big combat events are going to be happening in the next 10 days?”
Institte for the Study of War: “ISW continues to assess the current Russian most likely course of action (MLCOA) as an imminent offensive effort in Luhansk Oblast”
Russian Forces seem to have been built up especially in the North - Kreminna, Bakhmut, Kupyansk. The Russian concept seems to be to press broadly across the front, to make a breakthrough somewhere (anywhere), that forces Ukraine to commit its Strategic reserve to hold the breakthrough. Then they would throw their main punch in the North, to capture ground, and operational objectives, to bring them closer to full occupation of the Donbass (which seems to be their Strategic goal at this point).
"UA MoD hit an all time (daily) high with claimed Liquidated Personnel (1,140 Russian KIA in a single day)). I do not necessarily trust the numbers, but they are a good (relative) indicator if losses are high or low for the previous day."
Thanks, I just ordered this map and it should make it easier for me to keep an eye on things, my current wall maps are too general.
On the Ukraine side, they have had time to prepare to for whatever form the attack occurred. If it is necessary to retreat from Bakhmut or from Luhansk to the Oskil, the Ukraine command is ready for it. Ukraine is training and equipping soldiers, not turning convicts into fertilizer.
Russia is trading lives and equipment for a few meters per day, Ukraine is trading those meters per day into heavier Russian losses and time to for their military to get stronger and receive new equipment. Unless there is a drastic change the Russian “win” from this offensive are shaping up to by “Pyrrhic”.
Its should be embarrassing when a army launches a major attack (maybe?) and it takes a few days for anyone to tell the difference from the attack and their current operations.
They won’t need that many. The Ukrainians aren’t exactly the Wehrmacht.
