🇷🇺 In addition to the seven Tu-95s, four Tu-22 bombers have taken off from Dyagilevo AFB and are heading toward the Black Sea launch positions.

There are presumably 5 more bombers at Engels AFB that could potentially join in.

Meanwhile, about a dozen "Geran" drones entered Ukrainian airspace through the north.

Supposedly the trainers/ technicians for Sweden’s Saab 340B AEW&C aircraft were amongst those killed. The Early Warning and Control aircraft were expected to be used in conjunction with the F-16.

The aircraft were part of a military aid package worth 13.3 billion Krona ($1.3 billion) .

...and Zelensky wants us to give Ukraine $800 Million to rebuild their power infrastructure.

So what? So it can get bombed into smithereens again?

They would have to build everything deep underground and do so without giving away their positions to the Russians.

Maybe Hamas can build them a massive tunnel system so they can all live like moles.

“700 Western mercenaries have just been killed and wounded at a NATO communications training centre”

‘Mercenaries’, well the term works for both sides as neither wants it known that otherwise active-duty NATO personnel are fighting this war.

What I’m interested in finding out is just how much pressure these ‘mercenaries’ are under to go into the meat grinder and only get out alive, and with most body parts, if they’re lucky. My guess is that they’re told that life won’t be so good if they disobey ‘requests’ from their commanders, regarding going into Ukraine. Will be interesting to find out what was really going on in Ukraine, when this crap finally ends.

“Horrible” aptly describes the TU 95...Every time we got flown-over by one of those bustards in the middle of the Pacific, I felt a bit queasy. I'll tune into my favorite lefty mouthpiece (Amanpour) tonight to see what the Ukes have to say.

“They would have to build everything deep underground and do so without giving away their positions to the Russians.”

And it would still be difficult as they would have to figure out how to cool the substations without the huge heat signature they would otherwise give out (from their air shafts). All I can think of putting them next to rivers and water cooling, but even that will have an IR signature.

I agree with you.

We can’t be certain at this point.

Would make more sense/more cost effective/more humanatarian to just end the war.

As if Raytheon, General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman, Boeing et al would stand for that.

“Maybe Ukraine should have thought twice before invading the Russian homeland.”

Maybe Russia is destroying a country they hope to invade and own.

Well, the US did state “ to the last Ukrainian “. I wonder who is the greater fool? The US or the current corrupted Ukrainian regime?

It might come as quickly. Z certainly deserves nothing better. He might get the Il Duce treatment.

How much longer before Ukrainian families are dealing with winter setting in and no electricity?

Until the UKR F-16s get missiles that can reach out and touch a few of the bombers
