France sent 5th generation Akeron MP ATGM's. This shit has a firing range of up to 5 km and is cooler than Javelin (4th generation ATGM, 2.5 km range).

There’s no deficit in the energy system of Ukraine. No power cuts are planned today.
Remember when Prighozin used to brag that Wagner’s plan was to attrit the Ukrainians in Bakhmut?
“Wagner once again published a very graphic video begging to be provided with ammunition. In the video, hundreds of corpses of mercenaries are in a room”

Wagner is being destroyed in real time around Bakhmut.
Let’s try again, who’s dream died in Donbas? The Russians have been attacking for months and gained little. Personally I think Ukrainians should have pulled back reducing their losses while Russia continues to hit head on hammer, but their call Latest assaults by Russians have lead to serious loses in equipment and manpower for meters of gain not exactly overwhelming offensive. As the Russians continue to in fight(apparently Wagner may be out) their “gains” will continue to cost them thousands of casualties and lots of equipment loses. Seems tank driver training only got to driving in straight lines even when facing a mine field,, these loses will result in a much more degraded force that will have more trouble when faced with Bradley’s 25mm and marker 40mm.
Encirclement’s are great if you have the forces to protect the flanks of the salients, if you don’t then they are prime points for counter attacks and cutting off of troops
We will se what happens
That would make sense to give them any Soviet aircraft
"The first group of 630 Ukrainian soldiers completed their training using the M2 Bradley IFV in Grafenwöhr, Germany."
Washington Times Reports: Another Ukrainian battalion began training on the M2 Bradley before the first group graduated, military officials said. American troops are also training Ukrainian artillery soldiers on the M109 Paladin howitzer. Next week, an infantry battalion will receive instructions on the M1126 Stryker, officials said.
