Russia Isn’t Going to Run Out of Missiles

.... Russia’s continued strike campaign in 2023 has made one thing quite clear: it is unrealistic to expect Russia to ever “run out” of missiles. Despite sanctions and export controls, it appears likely that Russia will be able to produce or otherwise acquire the long-range strike capacity necessary to inflict significant damage upon Ukraine’s people, economy, and military. Ukraine’s air defenses have performed remarkably well under challenging circumstances. Nevertheless, the Russian military has continued trying to identify gaps and seams to exploit to gain an advantage.

There is no one-off fix for this problem. Sanctions and export controls can, at most, limit the quantity and quality of strike assets Russia can acquire. The most reliable counter is sustained Western support for Ukrainian air defense forces for the duration of the conflict. The continued, steady provision of air defenses into the foreseeable future will save lives, reduce costs of future reconstruction, and help end the war more quickly by enabling Ukraine’s counteroffensive in the face of superior Russian airpower. Moreover, providing air defenses has also forced Western countries to scale up production of these systems, which could have long-term benefits for Western defense readiness.....

“”””unless the West coughs up even more men””””

You mean introduce men for the first time?

[JonPreston]

When did you first realize you supported Biden’s Ukraine foreign policy?

[wastedyears]

Zeepers hardest hit.

[wastedyears]

The Soviets lost Afghanistan. And they had twice the population back then.

How about us?

[BJ1]

Ukraine will run out of soldiers long before Russia runs out of missiles. It’s already being reported that Ukraine has press gangs out and about in public areas rounding up boys and old men. LOL to all you ppl saying Russia is going to lose.

And WTF is wrong you ppl who are rooting for Russia to lose? This isn’t a fight for the USA. It matters not who wins or loses.

[AndyJackson]

They are as capable as any to republish Russian propaganda

Well, first, CSIS is definitely in the camp of the MIC forever war globalists. That's how they make their non-profit money and why forprofit people contribute so grandiously to them. They are deep state propagandists, and creators and originators, not regurgitators. And you obviously didn't read the article since the general theme is "Russia won't run out of missiles, but onward to victory in our next chapter of forever war."

But you are so methed out that you cannot even recognize your own friends when you see them.

[AndyJackson]

Since the only Westerners there are spies, contractors and advisors.

[frogjerk]

We won the Cold war.

[PIF]

But you are so methed out

"More Russian Propaganda - fact is they are using their stocks up faster than they can replace them, plus a missile of any type made before 2020 is far superior to the same missile made today, because Russia’s missiles, like its tanks and other equipment, are dependent on now embargoed Western parts."

Because those russian missiles aren't used to destroy Ukrainian military targets, but to terrorize the civilian population, like Hitlers V2 rockets.

If you believe that, there's some oceanfront property for you in Wyoming.

We won the Cold war.

Is that so.

Just my imagination, that most russian missiles hit apartment buildings. Okay

The 14-year-old twin sisters, Anna and Yulia Aksenchenko, were murdered June 27 by Russia in the missile strike against a restaurant in Kramatorsk.

“Their monstrous manufacturing industry...”

The rus manufacturing industry is much smaller than that of South Korea.
