TL;DR:
* A Ukrainian soldier fighting in the east said the Russians have key advantages over their forces.
* He told CNN tanks are scary because you don’t always hear them the way you might with an aircraft.
* Ukraine’s military is scrambling to work as efficiently as it can with limited ammunition.
Yep. Essentially we are the Taliban, the Russians are the US. Maybe not quite as bad as that but you get what I mean…
Repeat the mantra: “TaNkS aRe DeAd!”, it’ll help.
Oh, no, wait! Sending more and better weapons to Ukraine might be what really helps.
Keeping Ukraine a free and sovereign nation, and halting russia’s imperialist tour of conquest will never be that cheap again.
Prayers to St. Javelin have been heard
Hopefully Republicans will let freedom ring
Godamn Republicans are basically traitors to the US at this point
Another utterly worthless article. The Russians do not ‘have it all’ when it comes to weapons or else they’d be launching major offensives in various directions, i.e. in the Donbass, towards Kharkiv and towards Kyiv. They are highly restricted in what they can do since they no longer have the amount of armour (MBTs and IFVs) to carry out major offensives, and have also suffered very heavy logistical losses. Essentially they’re restricted to carrying out highly localised advances using infantry under cover of artillery bombardment – some with small packets of armour. Even these are usually failing badly. We all know that Russia still maintains an ammunition and artillery numerical superiority, but this falls a long way short of ‘having it all.’
Yet they can’t advance.
What about 50 leo2 that the mighty west could scramble? Are they near Moscow yet? Idiots were cheering like kids. It’s not the quality that only matters against such an here opponent. It’s both quality and quantity. The Ukrainian army is losing both.
Apparently Ruzzian tank production is roughly 100 a month. Regardless if they lack modern optics or ew equipment, that’s still a hundred tanks a month, and probably 90-100 more than the Ukrainians are receiving from the west per month.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing
Get our war industry rolling, it’s both profitable and towards the goal of saving Ukraine and degrading ruzzia. It’s a fucking no brainer to most, it absurd to smooth brain people.
Send everything Ukraine needs, when they ask for it. If the Allied response had been months sooner and more complete, the war would have been over by now. Russia has had time to dig in and adjust their doctrine. They are still not the best army in Ukraine, but they are still dangerous and capable in many areas.
