How much damage can these munitions cause? I assume they could take out things like trucks, planes, artillery, etc. Can they destroy buildings? Armored vehicles?
At some point something needs to be done about all that Russian artillery. Like destroying hundreds more, not a couple here and there. Ukraine can keep forcing back the ammo dumps and lengthen the supply lines, but they already did that before and supplies are still making it to the front. Russian artillery can pound Ukrainian positions when the battlefield is fairly static, and hit Ukrainian troops/vehicles in pre-sighted areas during Ukrainian advances. Maybe these munitions will be capable of taking out artillery better? | [

How much damage can these munitions cause? I assume they could take out things like trucks, planes, artillery, etc. Can they destroy buildings? Armored vehicles?
The warhead is a little more than half the size on that of the GMLRS and surely subsonic because it needs to glide like 100km to hit the quoted range figures.
It'll destroy vehicles and most buildings it can hit but you'd have to identify, target, and hit them. At 150km without air superiority that's not very easy.
On the upside, these are cheaper than GMLRS and more spammable assuming we're sending a lot of them. | [

I think everything will arrive in time for Russia's offensive in March. All these announcements happened the same time the CIA delivered information to zelensky. They probably showed up with detailed information on the 2nd invasion and how Ukraine can defeat it.
Announcing tanks and long range weps that will be there by spring is basically giving Putin a chance to change his mind. Ukraine will be ready so why even bother with another offensive.
Ukraine can just slowly retreat why himars and precision artillery obliterate Russian armor. It just makes no sense for Russia to continue this war if they can't take out the himar systems. They can't, they were hoping we would run out of ammo.
That was feasible until recently with the announcement of this new designed missile system. It combines two components that we have in abundance. It's time for Putin to just retreat to the donbass and ask for a ceasefire. He might get lucky and be able to negotiate for Crimea. | [

You don’t really need them en masse to make a difference. Target one or two ammunition depots that were previously out of range and you can force a response that makes logistics harder. They Russians have learned and they still remember.
The thing is, these bombs are cheap and can be made plentiful, and they are not stealthy to radar. A fun, unintended side effect might be that they fill the same SAM ammunition depletion role that the Russians had enjoyed with Shahed. | [

Considering there is a lot of partisan activity in Melitopol, Tokmak, and other parts of occupied Zaporizhzhia oblast... I wonder if that could prove useful in case Ukraine decides to penetrate the frontlines there and cut Kherson oblast and Crimea from the eastern occupied areas, which some analysts have assessed would be a good course of action.
Considering they would have to cut really deep and reach the sea, I feel like the partisan activity could be a great help, as Russian forces in those areas would already be weakened from fighting against partisans. | [

German Patriot systems have arrived at the Polish Ukrainian border. ~~From my understanding, these are intended for Ukraine.~~
Rough translation/summary of the interview section: They had an uneventful journey to their target destination and are now receiving final preparation for their follow-up assignment.

Correction: They are intended for the NATO east flank protection, so not yet for Ukraine.

They should sell them more than two. The Turkish drone has gotten a lot of free advertisement in Ukraine. US drones need to get more action there. | [

Novobohdanivka
As someone from North America, I find it interesting to see old world towns and cities that have "new" attached to the name. Is there an older version of the town? Like how there's a York that is the name sake of New York.
Like if there's a Novobohdanivka is there a Staryibohdanivka?
or is it a situation where the old town got so messed up the citizens just planted the new town on top of it? | [

Like if there's a Novobohdanivka is there a Staryibohdanivka?
In the early months of war I was relocating through Western Ukraine and spent some time near town called Stary(Old) Sambir, which is 20-something kms off the bigger town called Sambir.
So the question is, how could such oddity happen?
And the answer is quite epic: Original Sambir got burned down by the Mongols and so survivors relocated a bit and created new town that got named the same way as the old one. But then few decades(or centuries, idk about lore in much details) later old town got restored and since it's name was already taken, it got named Old Sambir. | [

">\n\n\nHow much damage can these munitions cause? I assume they could take out things like trucks, planes, artillery, etc. Can they destroy buildings?

It doesn't really matter that there isn't a full fledged production line, as long as they can get some out and to Ukraine. Even twenty will make a difference.",
">\n\nI think everything will arrive in time for Russia's offensive in March. All these announcements happened the same time the CIA delivered information to zelensky. They probably showed up with detailed information on the 2nd invasion and how Ukraine can defeat it.\nAnnouncing tanks and long range weps that will be there by spring is basically giving Putin a chance to change his mind. Ukraine will be ready so why even bother with another offensive. \nUkraine can just slowly retreat why himars and precision artillery obliterate Russian armor. It just makes no sense for Russia to continue this war if they can't take out the himar systems. They can't, they were hoping we would run out of ammo.\nThat was feasible until recently with the announcement of this new designed missile system. It combines two components that we have in abundance. It's time for Putin to just retreat to the donbass and ask for a ceasefire. He might get lucky and be able to negotiate for Crimea.",

Symbolic: sure, humiliating: no. Just look at what happened to Germany, Hungary and other losing countries after WWI (this is partially what led to WWII). The new leaders of these countries were able to convert the humiliation into stronger nationalism and revanchism.
However, they should find a place which is symbolic for Ukraine, I agree.

Ukraine will be ready so why even bother with another offensive. \nUkraine can just slowly retreat why himars and precision artillery obliterate Russian armor. It just makes no sense for Russia to continue this war if they can't take out the himar systems. They can't, they were hoping we would run out of ammo.\nThat was feasible until recently with the announcement of this new designed missile system.

Ukraine can keep forcing back the ammo dumps and lengthen the supply lines, but they already did that before and supplies are still making it to the front.

">\n\n\nHow much damage can these munitions cause? I assume they could take out things like trucks, planes, artillery, etc. Can they destroy buildings?

The two main components have existed for years and there is a virtually limitless inventory as far as we are concerned.\nThey tested it a while ago, so they already have the capability to build these things reliably. It doesn't really matter that there isn't a full fledged production line, as long as they can get some out and to Ukraine. Even twenty will make a difference.",
">\n\nI think everything will arrive in time for Russia's offensive in March. All these announcements happened the same time the CIA delivered information to zelensky. They probably showed up with detailed information on the 2nd invasion and how Ukraine can defeat it.\nAnnouncing tanks and long range weps that will be there by spring is basically giving Putin a chance to change his mind. Ukraine will be ready so why even bother with another offensive. \nUkraine can just slowly retreat why himars and precision artillery obliterate Russian armor. It just makes no sense for Russia to continue this war if they can't take out the himar systems. They can't, they were hoping we would run out of ammo.\nThat was feasible until recently with the announcement of this new designed missile system. It combines two components that we have in abundance. It's time for Putin to just retreat to the donbass and ask for a ceasefire. He might get lucky and be able to negotiate for Crimea.",

Where's a good place to catch up on the overall movement of the war right from the start? I've been following this thread daily, and I get an update on the recent developments in eg Bakhmut or Vuhledar, but I can't really grasp where everybody is...
I've studied a map to try to get my head around it but I find myself still mixing up eg Kherson and Kharkiv etc.
I've tried the Kings and Generals YouTube series, but is there anything even more zoomed out? Like a recent 30 minute summary of the entire war?
Thanks | [

">\n\nHow much damage can these munitions cause? I assume they could take out things like trucks, planes, artillery, etc. Can they destroy buildings? Armored vehicles?\nAt some point something needs to be done about all that Russian artillery. Like destroying hundreds more, not a couple here and there. Ukraine can keep forcing back the ammo dumps and lengthen the supply lines, but they already did that before and supplies are still making it to the front. Russian artillery can pound Ukrainian positions when the battlefield is fairly static, and hit Ukrainian troops/vehicles in pre-sighted areas during Ukrainian advances. Maybe these munitions will be capable of taking out artillery better?",
">\n\n\nHow much damage can these munitions cause? I assume they could take out things like trucks, planes, artillery, etc. Can they destroy buildings? Armored vehicles?\n\nThe warhead is a little more than half the size on that of the GMLRS and surely subsonic because it needs to glide like 100km to hit the quoted range figures.\nIt'll destroy vehicles and most buildings it can hit but you'd have to identify, target, and hit them. At 150km without air superiority that's not very easy. \nOn the upside, these are cheaper than GMLRS and more spammable assuming we're sending a lot of them.",
">\n\n\nOn the upside, these are cheaper than GMLRS and more spammable assuming we're sending a lot of them. \n\nThey are not yet in production. So it would take a long time to get big amounts and potentially only very few in the short term.",

">\n\nI can only imagine that it will be faster. It's an extremely simple weapon in that the only complex part is joining the bomb to the booster and having a release mechanism. The two main components have existed for years and there is a virtually limitless inventory as far as we are concerned.\nThey tested it a while ago, so they already have the capability to build these things reliably. It doesn't really matter that there isn't a full fledged production line, as long as they can get some out and to Ukraine. Even twenty will make a difference.",
">\n\nI think everything will arrive in time for Russia's offensive in March. All these announcements happened the same time the CIA delivered information to zelensky. They probably showed up with detailed information on the 2nd invasion and how Ukraine can defeat it.\nAnnouncing tanks and long range weps that will be there by spring is basically giving Putin a chance to change his mind. Ukraine will be ready so why even bother with another offensive. \nUkraine can just slowly retreat why himars and precision artillery obliterate Russian armor. It just makes no sense for Russia to continue this war if they can't take out the himar systems. They can't, they were hoping we would run out of ammo.\nThat was feasible until recently with the announcement of this new designed missile system. It combines two components that we have in abundance. It's time for Putin to just retreat to the donbass and ask for a ceasefire. He might get lucky and be able to negotiate for Crimea.",

">\n\nHow much damage can these munitions cause? I assume they could take out things like trucks, planes, artillery, etc. Can they destroy buildings?

Ukraine can keep forcing back the ammo dumps and lengthen the supply lines, but they already did that before and supplies are still making it to the front. Russian artillery can pound Ukrainian positions when the battlefield is fairly static, and hit Ukrainian troops/vehicles in pre-sighted areas during Ukrainian advances. Maybe these munitions will be capable of taking out artillery better?",
">\n\n\nHow much damage can these munitions cause? I assume they could take out things like trucks, planes, artillery, etc. Can they destroy buildings? Armored vehicles?\n\nThe warhead is a little more than half the size on that of the GMLRS and surely subsonic because it needs to glide like 100km to hit the quoted range figures.\nIt'll destroy vehicles and most buildings it can hit but you'd have to identify, target, and hit them. At 150km without air superiority that's not very easy. \nOn the upside, these are cheaper than GMLRS and more spammable assuming we're sending a lot of them.",

">\n\nI can only imagine that it will be faster. It's an extremely simple weapon in that the only complex part is joining the bomb to the booster and having a release mechanism. The two main components have existed for years and there is a virtually limitless inventory as far as we are concerned.\nThey tested it a while ago, so they already have the capability to build these things reliably. It doesn't really matter that there isn't a full fledged production line, as long as they can get some out and to Ukraine. Even twenty will make a difference.",
">\n\nI think everything will arrive in time for Russia's offensive in March. All these announcements happened the same time the CIA delivered information to zelensky. They probably showed up with detailed information on the 2nd invasion and how Ukraine can defeat it.\nAnnouncing tanks and long range weps that will be there by spring is basically giving Putin a chance to change his mind. Ukraine will be ready so why even bother with another offensive. \nUkraine can just slowly retreat why himars and precision artillery obliterate Russian armor. It just makes no sense for Russia to continue this war if they can't take out the himar systems. They can't, they were hoping we would run out of ammo.\nThat was feasible until recently with the announcement of this new designed missile system. It combines two components that we have in abundance. It's time for Putin to just retreat to the donbass and ask for a ceasefire. He might get lucky and be able to negotiate for Crimea.",

Ukraine can keep forcing back the ammo dumps and lengthen the supply lines, but they already did that before and supplies are still making it to the front. Russian artillery can pound Ukrainian positions when the battlefield is fairly static, and hit Ukrainian troops/vehicles in pre-sighted areas during Ukrainian advances.

It doesn't really matter that there isn't a full fledged production line, as long as they can get some out and to Ukraine. Even twenty will make a difference.",
">\n\nI think everything will arrive in time for Russia's offensive in March. All these announcements happened the same time the CIA delivered information to zelensky. They probably showed up with detailed information on the 2nd invasion and how Ukraine can defeat it.\nAnnouncing tanks and long range weps that will be there by spring is basically giving Putin a chance to change his mind. Ukraine will be ready so why even bother with another offensive. \nUkraine can just slowly retreat why himars and precision artillery obliterate Russian armor. It just makes no sense for Russia to continue this war if they can't take out the himar systems. They can't, they were hoping we would run out of ammo.\nThat was feasible until recently with the announcement of this new designed missile system. It combines two components that we have in abundance. It's time for Putin to just retreat to the donbass and ask for a ceasefire. He might get lucky and be able to negotiate for Crimea.",

So, I'm watching a video from the 1420 YouTube channel and there is this Russian guy who says that Russia considers Ukraine as a brother nation. Well then ... after the other brother made some self-determining decisions like who he wants to hang out with, in what world do you go over to your brother to kill him, rape his wife, kidnap his children, and plunder + burn his house to the ground? If they think that Ukraine moving away from Russia and towards Europe/West is Ukraine losing their way, then a good brother at the very least would let Ukrainians make their own mistakes and let them find out that the grass is not greener on the other side (which is the case of course and the Russians know it). My point is that this notion of a brother nation puts more responsibility on Russia to act with compassion, understanding, patience, and even love ... not less! If 2 countries are indifferent to each other and one acts in a way that goes really against the other country's self-interest, then I expect the moves Russia made sooner than from a brother nation. As a matter of fact, I expect no brother nation to act like Russia is acting, unless it is a psycho brother who has always tried to exert power over their kid brother, really hurting him whenever he wanted to and deriving pleasure out of it. And then throwing a sick tantrum when that dynamic and pleasure is about to be taken away from him?
I think I also pick up another underlying notion from these interviews. Like, these former USSR nations have to be loyal and thankful towards Russia and if they don't, they are not loyal and sell-outs. But was it not the other way? Russia using these nations basically as colonies to be exploited? I heard about high numbers of Ukrainians dying in World War 2, having a big military industry that Russia could use, Ukraine being a nation of intellectuals, so Russia could also use their intellectual fruits, Ukraine having access to the Black Sea with accessible ports, having fertile ground to grow crops and also having raw materials and minerals in the ground. On and on. Then, if Ukraine did not play ball according to Russia, they organized a genocide like Holodomor to shut them up? My point is, why would it not be the other way around? A former colonial power apologizing and paying reparations to Ukraine? Russians feeling guilt for what they have done? Like ... WTF? | [

The two main components have existed for years and there is a virtually limitless inventory as far as we are concerned.\nThey tested it a while ago, so they already have the capability to build these things reliably. It doesn't really matter that there isn't a full fledged production line, as long as they can get some out and to Ukraine. Even twenty will make a difference.",
">\n\nI think everything will arrive in time for Russia's offensive in March. All these announcements happened the same time the CIA delivered information to zelensky. They probably showed up with detailed information on the 2nd invasion and how Ukraine can defeat it.\nAnnouncing tanks and long range weps that will be there by spring is basically giving Putin a chance to change his mind. Ukraine will be ready so why even bother with another offensive. \nUkraine can just slowly retreat why himars and precision artillery obliterate Russian armor. It just makes no sense for Russia to continue this war if they can't take out the himar systems. They can't, they were hoping we would run out of ammo.\nThat was feasible until recently with the announcement of this new designed missile system.

Now that NATO is sending tanks and IFV's Ukraine will need to integrate them into their existing forces and implement NATO's air/land combined arms concept that has proven to work well against russia trained forces in places like Desert storm. Using this concept, the ex-NATO tanks and IFV’s will be Concentrated into an incredibly powerful and very fast-moving ‘iron fist’ to smash through the Russian defenses following an intense and continuing artillery barrage that ‘rolls forward’ into the depth of the Russian positions. IFV’s will cover the flanks, and dismount Infantry as required to suppress enemy fires from the flank positions, and airstrikes into the rear areas and key transportation/communication nodes will prevent/disrupt Russian attempts at regrouping or counterattacks. Closely Following the ex-NATO armored formations will come the Ukrainian T-64’s, T-72’s, BMP’s and the like, whose purpose will be to ‘fan out’ to the left and right of the main armor breakthrough to sow confusion, fear and destruction throughout the rear areas of the Russian defensive lines, which is most likely to cause enough panic that the Russians will either try to flee en masse, or surrender in droves. Meanwhile, the ex-NATO armored fist will either Continue to punch forward to take advantage of tasty ‘opportunities’ that present themselves,, or, if the confusion is obtained and complete sufficient for the other Ukrainian forces to deal with, may well withdraw to conserve their strength for another big breakthrough somewhere else.
One key ‘difference’ is that because of the relative weakness of Ukrainian air assets, it will be necessary to bring along as many air defense systems as possible to prevent the Russian air force from trying to interdict/stop the armored fist from breaking through, or attacking their necessary assembly areas prior to the big push. | [

">\n\nSo, I'm watching a video from the 1420 YouTube channel and there is this Russian guy who says that Russia considers Ukraine as a brother nation. Well then ... after the other brother made some self-determining decisions like who he wants to hang out with, in what world do you go over to your brother to kill him, rape his wife, kidnap his children, and plunder + burn his house to the ground? If they think that Ukraine moving away from Russia and towards Europe/West is Ukraine losing their way, then a good brother at the very least would let Ukrainians make their own mistakes and let them find out that the grass is not greener on the other side (which is the case of course and the Russians know it). My point is that this notion of a brother nation puts more responsibility on Russia to act with compassion, understanding, patience, and even love ... not less! If 2 countries are indifferent to each other and one acts in a way that goes really against the other country's self-interest, then I expect the moves Russia made sooner than from a brother nation. As a matter of fact, I expect no brother nation to act like Russia is acting, unless it is a psycho brother who has always tried to exert power over their kid brother, really hurting him whenever he wanted to and deriving pleasure out of it. And then throwing a sick tantrum when that dynamic and pleasure is about to be taken away from him?\nI think I also pick up another underlying notion from these interviews. Like, these former USSR nations have to be loyal and thankful towards Russia and if they don't, they are not loyal and sell-outs. But was it not the other way? Russia using these nations basically as colonies to be exploited? I heard about high numbers of Ukrainians dying in World War 2, having a big military industry that Russia could use, Ukraine being a nation of intellectuals, so Russia could also use their intellectual fruits, Ukraine having access to the Black Sea with accessible ports, having fertile ground to grow crops and also having raw materials and minerals in the ground. On and on. Then, if Ukraine did not play ball according to Russia, they organized a genocide like Holodomor to shut them up? My point is, why would it not be the other way around? A former colonial power apologizing and paying reparations to Ukraine? Russians feeling guilt for what they have done? Like ... WTF?",
">\n\nAccording to propaganda, that's what they're doing. Supposedly Ukrainians overwhelmingly want to join Russia, but the evil west is preventing it with its puppet government and nazi soldiers.",

">\n\nSo, I'm watching a video from the 1420 YouTube channel and there is this Russian guy who says that Russia considers Ukraine as a brother nation. Well then ... after the other brother made some self-determining decisions like who he wants to hang out with, in what world do you go over to your brother to kill him, rape his wife, kidnap his children, and plunder + burn his house to the ground? If they think that Ukraine moving away from Russia and towards Europe/West is Ukraine losing their way, then a good brother at the very least would let Ukrainians make their own mistakes and let them find out that the grass is not greener on the other side (which is the case of course and the Russians know it). My point is that this notion of a brother nation puts more responsibility on Russia to act with compassion, understanding, patience, and even love ... not less! If 2 countries are indifferent to each other and one acts in a way that goes really against the other country's self-interest, then I expect the moves Russia made sooner than from a brother nation. As a matter of fact, I expect no brother nation to act like Russia is acting, unless it is a psycho brother who has always tried to exert power over their kid brother, really hurting him whenever he wanted to and deriving pleasure out of it. And then throwing a sick tantrum when that dynamic and pleasure is about to be taken away from him?\nI think I also pick up another underlying notion from these interviews. Like, these former USSR nations have to be loyal and thankful towards Russia and if they don't, they are not loyal and sell-outs. But was it not the other way? Russia using these nations basically as colonies to be exploited? I heard about high numbers of Ukrainians dying in World War 2, having a big military industry that Russia could use, Ukraine being a nation of intellectuals, so Russia could also use their intellectual fruits, Ukraine having access to the Black Sea with accessible ports, having fertile ground to grow crops and also having raw materials and minerals in the ground. On and on. Then, if Ukraine did not play ball according to Russia, they organized a genocide like Holodomor to shut them up? My point is, why would it not be the other way around? A former colonial power apologizing and paying reparations to Ukraine? Russians feeling guilt for what they have done? Like ... WTF?",
">\n\nAccording to propaganda, that's what they're doing. Supposedly Ukrainians overwhelmingly want to join Russia, but the evil west is preventing it with its puppet government and nazi soldiers.",
">\n\nThat changed a bit. Now it's \"most/all Ukrainians are Nazis\".",
">\n\nNow that NATO is sending tanks and IFV's Ukraine will need to integrate them into their existing forces and implement NATO's air/land combined arms concept that has proven to work well against russia trained forces in places like Desert storm. Using this concept, the ex-NATO tanks and IFV’s will be Concentrated into an incredibly powerful and very fast-moving ‘iron fist’ to smash through the Russian defenses following an intense and continuing artillery barrage that ‘rolls forward’ into the depth of the Russian positions. IFV’s will cover the flanks, and dismount Infantry as required to suppress enemy fires from the flank positions, and airstrikes into the rear areas and key transportation/communication nodes will prevent/disrupt Russian attempts at regrouping or counterattacks. Closely Following the ex-NATO armored formations will come the Ukrainian T-64’s, T-72’s, BMP’s and the like, whose purpose will be to ‘fan out’ to the left and right of the main armor breakthrough to sow confusion, fear and destruction throughout the rear areas of the Russian defensive lines, which is most likely to cause enough panic that the Russians will either try to flee en masse, or surrender in droves. Meanwhile, the ex-NATO armored fist will either Continue to punch forward to take advantage of tasty ‘opportunities’ that present themselves,, or, if the confusion is obtained and complete sufficient for the other Ukrainian forces to deal with, may well withdraw to conserve their strength for another big breakthrough somewhere else.\nOne key ‘difference’ is that because of the relative weakness of Ukrainian air assets, it will be necessary to bring along as many air defense systems as possible to prevent the Russian air force from trying to interdict/stop the armored fist from breaking through, or attacking their necessary assembly areas prior to the big push."

They can't, they were hoping we would run out of ammo.\nThat was feasible until recently with the announcement of this new designed missile system.

">\n\nSo, I'm watching a video from the 1420 YouTube channel and there is this Russian guy who says that Russia considers Ukraine as a brother nation. Well then ... after the other brother made some self-determining decisions like who he wants to hang out with, in what world do you go over to your brother to kill him, rape his wife, kidnap his children, and plunder + burn his house to the ground? If they think that Ukraine moving away from Russia and towards Europe/West is Ukraine losing their way, then a good brother at the very least would let Ukrainians make their own mistakes and let them find out that the grass is not greener on the other side (which is the case of course and the Russians know it). My point is that this notion of a brother nation puts more responsibility on Russia to act with compassion, understanding, patience, and even love ... not less! If 2 countries are indifferent to each other and one acts in a way that goes really against the other country's self-interest, then I expect the moves Russia made sooner than from a brother nation. As a matter of fact, I expect no brother nation to act like Russia is acting, unless it is a psycho brother who has always tried to exert power over their kid brother, really hurting him whenever he wanted to and deriving pleasure out of it. And then throwing a sick tantrum when that dynamic and pleasure is about to be taken away from him?\nI think I also pick up another underlying notion from these interviews. Like, these former USSR nations have to be loyal and thankful towards Russia and if they don't, they are not loyal and sell-outs. But was it not the other way? Russia using these nations basically as colonies to be exploited? I heard about high numbers of Ukrainians dying in World War 2, having a big military industry that Russia could use, Ukraine being a nation of intellectuals, so Russia could also use their intellectual fruits, Ukraine having access to the Black Sea with accessible ports, having fertile ground to grow crops and also having raw materials and minerals in the ground. On and on. Then, if Ukraine did not play ball according to Russia, they organized a genocide like Holodomor to shut them up? My point is, why would it not be the other way around? A former colonial power apologizing and paying reparations to Ukraine? Russians feeling guilt for what they have done? Like ... WTF?",
">\n\nAccording to propaganda, that's what they're doing. Supposedly Ukrainians overwhelmingly want to join Russia, but the evil west is preventing it with its puppet government and nazi soldiers.",
">\n\nThat changed a bit. Now it's \"most/all Ukrainians are Nazis\".",
">\n\nNow that NATO is sending tanks and IFV's Ukraine will need to integrate them into their existing forces and implement NATO's air/land combined arms concept that has proven to work well against russia trained forces in places like Desert storm. Using this concept, the ex-NATO tanks and IFV’s will be Concentrated into an incredibly powerful and very fast-moving ‘iron fist’ to smash through the Russian defenses following an intense and continuing artillery barrage that ‘rolls forward’ into the depth of the Russian positions. IFV’s will cover the flanks, and dismount Infantry as required to suppress enemy fires from the flank positions, and airstrikes into the rear areas and key transportation/communication nodes will prevent/disrupt Russian attempts at regrouping or counterattacks. Closely Following the ex-NATO armored formations will come the Ukrainian T-64’s, T-72’s, BMP’s and the like, whose purpose will be to ‘fan out’ to the left and right of the main armor breakthrough to sow confusion, fear and destruction throughout the rear areas of the Russian defensive lines, which is most likely to cause enough panic that the Russians will either try to flee en masse, or surrender in droves. Meanwhile, the ex-NATO armored fist will either Continue to punch forward to take advantage of tasty ‘opportunities’ that present themselves,, or, if the confusion is obtained and complete sufficient for the other Ukrainian forces to deal with, may well withdraw to conserve their strength for another big breakthrough somewhere else.\nOne key ‘difference’ is that because of the relative weakness of Ukrainian air assets, it will be necessary to bring along as many air defense systems as possible to prevent the Russian air force from trying to interdict/stop the armored fist from breaking through, or attacking their necessary assembly areas prior to the big push.",
">\n\n\nand implement NATO's air/land combined arms concept\n\nUkraine literally needs fighter jets for the \"air\" part. The longer governments deliberate and delay, the less successful those offensives could be"

I heard about high numbers of Ukrainians dying in World War 2, having a big military industry that Russia could use, Ukraine being a nation of intellectuals, so Russia could also use their intellectual fruits, Ukraine having access to the Black Sea with accessible ports, having fertile ground to grow crops and also having raw materials and minerals in the ground. On and on. Then, if Ukraine did not play ball according to Russia, they organized a genocide like Holodomor to shut them up? My point is, why would it not be the other way around? A former colonial power apologizing and paying reparations to Ukraine? Russians feeling guilt for what they have done? Like ... WTF?",
">\n\nAccording to propaganda, that's what they're doing. Supposedly Ukrainians overwhelmingly want to join Russia, but the evil west is preventing it with its puppet government and nazi soldiers.",
">\n\nThat changed a bit. Now it's \"most/all Ukrainians are Nazis\".",
">\n\nNow that NATO is sending tanks and IFV's Ukraine will need to integrate them into their existing forces and implement NATO's air/land combined arms concept that has proven to work well against russia trained forces in places like Desert storm. Using this concept, the ex-NATO tanks and IFV’s will be Concentrated into an incredibly powerful and very fast-moving ‘iron fist’ to smash through the Russian defenses following an intense and continuing artillery barrage that ‘rolls forward’ into the depth of the Russian positions. IFV’s will cover the flanks, and dismount Infantry as required to suppress enemy fires from the flank positions, and airstrikes into the rear areas and key transportation/communication nodes will prevent/disrupt Russian attempts at regrouping or counterattacks. Closely Following the ex-NATO armored formations will come the Ukrainian T-64’s, T-72’s, BMP’s and the like, whose purpose will be to ‘fan out’ to the left and right of the main armor breakthrough to sow confusion, fear and destruction throughout the rear areas of the Russian defensive lines, which is most likely to cause enough panic that the Russians will either try to flee en masse, or surrender in droves. Meanwhile, the ex-NATO armored fist will either Continue to punch forward to take advantage of tasty ‘opportunities’ that present themselves,, or, if the confusion is obtained and complete sufficient for the other Ukrainian forces to deal with, may well withdraw to conserve their strength for another big breakthrough somewhere else.\nOne key ‘difference’ is that because of the relative weakness of Ukrainian air assets, it will be necessary to bring along as many air defense systems as possible to prevent the Russian air force from trying to interdict/stop the armored fist from breaking through, or attacking their necessary assembly areas prior to the big push.",
">\n\n\nand implement NATO's air/land combined arms concept\n\nUkraine literally needs fighter jets for the \"air\" part. The longer governments deliberate and delay, the less successful those offensives could be",
">\n\nJust heard a lady on the news decry Putin's war as entirely in Ukraine's imagination. Fucking disgusting. Nut jobs like her have voting rights but should probably be institutionalized."
