How Does Russia Keep Hitting High Value Targets?
YouTube ^ | March 15, 2024 | Preston Stewart

Here is a very good assessment of recent Russia successes in targeting and destroying high value Ukrainian assets. Preston Stewart is perceptive and objective observer and analyst. He has recent experience as an American army artillery officer who has held a number of artillery slots and it is evident that is knows this subject well.

He is clearly an OBJECTIVE observer of the Ukraine war and does not “slant” his analysis. He knows something has changed in the Russian capabilities and he discusses those changes broadly,

Can somebody with better search skills find a CV for this guy? I can’t turn up anything at all.

There's plenty out there on him. A two minute Google search did the trick. Also checked LinkedIn. Guy's a West Point Grad. Seems evenhanded and factual in his analyses.

Given how easy it is to confirm Stewart's cred, did you drop your comment simply to cast doubts on the guy's credibility?

Slavo Youcrayknee Zeepers would never do something like that, would they?

Speaking of Google searches, is this you? https://twitter.com/chadcmulligan

United States and NATO allies are making Russia hone and advance their military tactics and doctrine. They actually developed a drone that uses a thin fiber optic cable that is impossible to jam. They are also adding AI to drones to seek and destroy specific targets that can not be jammed. This on top of making over 35,000 simpler drones a month.

Before the war NATO could easily overpower Russia. When this war is finished (it will be), it will likely cost tens of thousands of lives more.

Yes, Russia started out poorly, but they are not stupid. And if you’re wondering why they stalled, the west sent more aid and equipment than Russia’s whole military budget for a year. Ukraine has fought well and the west almost leveled the playing field against a poorly organized, ill equip and poorly trained Russian Military. But steel sharpens steel. We definitely sharpened the tip of the Russian spear and provided their army with tons of combat experience.

Russia maintains thousands of recon drones aloft, at any moment.

Putin promoters too often post stuff by very sketchy youtoob sources, so I was curious if this was another one. Hadn’t seen his name here before. This time Brave turned up nothing I could be sure was him. (I won’t touch G00gle with a barge pole.) I have neither the bandwidth nor the patience to sit through video presentations, when I can read 10x as fast.

No, I’m not on Twitter/x/faceplant/linkedin/or any other “social” media.

Should have remembered to ask - can you post a link or two that confirms his CV? Other than his own?

Yes, Russia started out poorly

Another false narrative of the war that I hear over and over. Russia seized almost all their current territory in the first three months of the SMO (March-May 2022). It's been a slog since.

NO! Would you like to speak to the manager Chad-Karen?

--- "...did you drop your comment simply to cast doubts on the guy's credibility?"

Of course he did. A simple search using a variety of search engines easily returns replies. But he will toy with you, as is his strategy.

See yesterday's silly go-around with him in which he refused a simple question with multiple games.

An multipart exchange with Mulligan

This go-around, note he trots out "Putin promoters" to cast aspersions.

No meaning there isn’t any third-party confirmation of his CV?

Anybody can claim anything on Utoob.

@ Worldtraveler once upon a time

You went wildly off-topic from the get-go on that thread, and then had a conniption fit because I called you on it.

Another nice try, but....

Do you support sending more money to Ukraine as of today?

And yet Russia still can’t win.

After more than 2 years.

That’s truly pathetic.

How Does Russia Keep Hitting High Value Targets? Like Residential Buildings and Homes.

As we all know, the only “objective reporting” is anti-UKR.

Russia also aims kinetic missiles at schools, playgrounds, and shopping malls

And uses White Phosphorus ... don’t forget that part

Already been well-proven and documented

That’s why Putin and his Generals now have arrest warrants for War Crimes

Why do you think Putin never flies anywhere?
