Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

[Gary]

- Ukraine is not interested in F16s (Thomas Theiner on twitter had a thread listing some potential reasons why), but is interested in more fitting models, such as Sweden's Gripen

There's no spare JAS-39 around, I hope he understand

HIMARS hasnt prevented those gains despite how some have hyped it up here https://liveuamap.com/

Combat operations in Iraq invasion were completed in 26 days. We are almost at the 5th month of Russia's already failed invasion of Ukraine. You are delusional.

think she deleted it

Sources of "Russian Spring" have just confirmed this information. It is not completely known whether the HIMARS MLRS installation was captured in combat or was sold by the corrupt Ukrainian military, but at the moment the installation is already in Russia.

@Nilgiri maybe this would be interesting for you.


Hope those F-16 comes with C-7 or even better D variant AMRAAM.

I seriously think that with the current situation, retaking Kherson is near impossible
Whatever Ukraine destroys, Russia replaces it with the double
I do agree that Ukranian army is more advanced; but this alone isnt sufficient as Putin has a war industry, money making industry (gas), and a slave-like population ready to fight
Ukraine on the other hand is too dependent on Western support which isnt in earnest and not enough to aid Ukraine in taking the strategic city of kherson since since is a fortress tbh

Russian troops launched a massive missile attack on the Ukrainian Yuzhmash plant in Dnepropetrovsk

 

[Jagdflieger]

Taking Kherson might not be the problem. But there are around 3000km2 North-East of Kershon held by Russian units (I wouldn't know their strength or setup)

If the UAF can't push back simultaneously the 140km front-line, with a depth of around 40km - (5000km2!!) they might enter Kherson - but leaving their flank open for a possible counter strike by Russia towards attacking/occupying Mykolaiv - thus encircling those UAF units in Kherson as well.

The Ukrainian Army isn't better lead then the Russian forces at all - and 90% of the UAF primary equipment is Russian stuff - even worse and inferior to the weapons the Russians have. Those MLRS and HIMARS are a strategic weapon - perfect for targeting command posts and supply-lines - using them as a tactical asset towards e.g. Kherson will certainly provide a massive pinpointed initial support for the UAF - but won't be able to suppress a 140km front-line with an depth of 40km.

These MLRS and 777 systems the UAF possibly draws towards Kherson - those numbers will be missing essentially at Donbass

Well let's see what the "comedians" and presently Ukraine's Goebbels, 1 million Volkssturm is going to be about.

2003 to 2011 is Insurgency era not conventionel warfare entire Iraqi army dismantled in 26 day Including their entire AA systems.

Also during 1991 It was the USAF who literally btfoed entire Russian garbage SAM network of Iraqis plus Brits destroyed some.

Russia's strike on the Dnieper: missiles hit Yuzhmash, the city without water

As a result of the missile attack, the water supply system was damaged.
"According to preliminary information, we have 3 dead and 16 wounded. Rescuers are still eliminating the fire at the enterprise. Because of this missile strike, many houses were damaged, doors and windows were smashed out. Two cars burned to the ground, about 10 more were injured. And, to Unfortunately, this explosion also damaged the water supply, so now there is partially no water in the right-bank part of the Dnieper. But the city authorities promise to fix everything, "-

Help for aviation. Zelensky on the new US budget

The US defense budget refers to the training of Ukrainian pilots on F-15 and F-16 fighter jets, which Ukraine has requested since the start of a full-scale invasion

President Volodymyr Zelensky said that the US defense budget will provide for additional assistance to Ukraine, including for aviation. He thanked "the American people, President Biden, Congress" for their support.

According to the Ukrainian president, over the past two weeks, Ukraine has received three billion dollars from the United States.

"The United States is preparing a defense budget for the new fiscal year with additional assistance for Ukraine, in particular, we are talking about expanding the capabilities of our military aviation," Zelensky said in a video message.

Its complicated i can't say they won, yes maybe they succeeded in overthrowing the Saddam regime by taking control of the capital, and this is what Russia failed to do in Ukraine.
