Failure to use air force effectively, caused failures on the ground and in the air.

6-8,000 Ukies captured/ surrendered by LNR DNR troops to date-do remember the Donbass war has been on going since 2015, and the Ukie Territorial Guards are no match for the hardened Donbass troops- as witnessed in the Mariupol surrender.
Red Cross being given access, however their “ lips are sealed” as to actual numbers- I wonder why?
Please do remember what Trump said about the fake western media, fake.
Don’t get sucked in, it will lead to a huge disappointment ( and lesson learned- again).
US versus third- or fourth-rate power, cost per round is hardly a consideration
——————
Cost/ challenges to transport manufactured rounds the largest problem, at close to 150 lbs each per 155mm projectile( ever see the pallets they are shipped in/ on?)….and they are separate loaded rounds, case less, bagged. Projectiles on huge pallets, propellant bags in separate containers ( tanks), fuzes separated by type ( MTSQ, PD, etc.) a logistical nightmare.
Thanks for this Travis.
You mean, production values are determinative of content? OK. Then believe everything CNN says. They have great production values. I would mis-trust it if I made inquiries with British Intelligence and they disavow the allegations contained in this report. But what they are saying sounds plausible, and I don’t really know the phone number of “British Intelligence,” so I’d tentatively believe it unless I hear different from another source, in which case it would depend on the plausibility of that report as opposed to this one, but production values are not even relevant.
So this begs the question, which side is analogous to the Japanese Imperial Navy? Neither of them have a free press, but Russia’s media is less free and has been so for a longer period of time. So I’d say they are more likely to spin tales. But I wouldn’t put it past either of them, and if I had to choose, I’d believe the unofficial British media, of which this indy outlet seems to be a part.
Well argued. Seems to be a principle of fighting as an underdog that if you show you’ve got fight, foreign powers get interested. The battle of Monmouth during the American Revolution was where Washington demonstrated to the French that the “yankee doodles” were a worthwhile investment, even though it happens that he nominally lost that battle.
That’s actually fake news. Tankies, aka Communists, are united in opposition to Ukraine, as are the NeoNazis. Weird how that worked out.
Propaganda comes with the territory. Fist of the North Star showed happy Ukrainian peasants singing, dancing and reaping a bountiful harvest, loyal communists all. Then the Germans invade and they all burn their houses and crops and take up arms to repulse the invaders, who are evil through and through, sometimes making Homeric speeches before delivering a decisive blow. It was produced in Hollywood, and was patently false in every respect. But the Soviets won. Germany had its own propaganda, of course, even before the commencement of hostilities.
There is no production value to what you posted, and no factual attribution, unless "Happy Ending" productions is something you take seriously. And please don't feign impartiality. You are a proponent of Biden's illegal war. We went around on this a month or so ago. I understand if you've forgotten our exchanges given the deep research you involve yourself in.
The Japanese learned they were losing the war when the Americans suddenly started bombing them
Timing of the thoughts about winning is important.
After the capture of the Marianas and the assault on Japan by the B 29’s, the Japs knew they were loosing. They knew they were losing for the simple fact their cities were being destroyed by daily air raids by hundreds of B 29’s. The Japanese cities were burning.
A primary reason for selecting Hiroshima and Nagasaki as targets for atomic attack is that they were the last cities standing
The video did not show me anything it suggested. 3 lines of text could have conveyed the same nothing burger.
Bump
Hush Neo-fascist.
The Dawns Here Are Not Quiet
Pee Wee Herman would take it! Yea!!!!!
It would almost be sinful to allow the Poles to profit or benefit in any way from any of this business. I hope Russia takes the entire thing and sets up a buffer zone between the new Russia and Poland.
Why would you say that considering what the Russians have done to Poland over the years?
Russia has a troop shortage already. More of the disgusting pig and ape invaders will die soon. The hero Cossacks are busy killing them. Death to all the Russian and Chechen invaders !!!
