I think the ATACMs strikes will be on a very low severity scale. Time to carry out the usual.

Who said Europe? I said NATO.you're probably a little more optimistic than the Ukrainian President if you think Europe with a smaller equipment and ammunition production with lesser active-duty troops, fresh to no experience in this conflict can somehow beat a bigger force with more firepower and equipment. That is assuming the Chinese don't jump right in since like Russia they don't want NATO closer to their borders to further thwart their Taiwan dream.
Alright here.Who said Europe? I said NATO.
Even then, a war is a „learning by doing“ game. I would not bet even in this constellation, no matter what a ‚Comedian‘ has said.
Russia > Europe.
Russia < Europe + US
Russia + China > Europe + US
might be true in an alternate universe unless you can bother explaining how you think countries that produce less fire power with less manpower somehow can win. Wake me up when the west produces better missiles and begins using photonic radars soon.Meanwile, in the real world:
Russia < Europe
China < US
Russia + China < Europe + US
Can't figure out if you are trolling or asking legitimate questions, but I'll bite on your questions regarding the West's military ramp up. Here are just SOME examples of the more than $1.5 Trillion usd worth of new weapons platforms that the West has ordered recently.you're probably a little more optimistic than the Ukrainian President if you think Europe with a smaller equipment and ammunition production with lesser active-duty troops, fresh to no experience in this conflict can somehow beat a bigger force with more firepower and equipment.

I think they are now already 3 years behind Taiwan in electronics production and their mass production on that keeps increasing (NATO countries have failed with their sanctions as usual). At this point Ukraine is going to have to make concessions to the conflict since NATO has awareness how far a war can escalate having no need for the losses. I think most users here fail to realize Ukraine to world leaders doesn't have that much importance around the world.
Come on man you have celebrated like 100 times for each Wunder waffle weapon the Ukrainians got in terms of turning the war around. Some are already backing off after Putin decided to sign a decree because they don't love Ukraine enough like you guys do.

You should already know better to not get your hopes up.
The Russians have never announced this, some high-ranking NATO officials which you guys believe will beat the Russians did.
Well, I think BMs are like the last wonder weapon that will fail like the last wonder weapons and based on production they might receive a limited amount. I don't think we are going to see another major counteroffensive from Ukraine in 2025. I think Europe is also going to pull out the financial support after Trump does.
the soviet stockpile is getting replaced as we speak.

I dont even think Europe started any mass production assuming they can afford production with whatever fuel their country receives to ease down with the energy prices.
Has this been done yet? I think getting their economy back to shape is their 1st requirement Mr. John Bolton. Do they have the fuel and energy to start any kind of production 1st? I am assuming the US can help but we will have to wait for 2 months. I think we all know the outcome of what will happen after that 2-month time period which will more than likely not benefit Ukraine.
Before you go accuse another person that they are trolling try to directly answer their questions or arguements which you have failed repeatedly to do. You gave me contracts, but there is an issue with that. When were those contracts signed and when are the full deliveries of those contracts suppose to take place?Can't figure out if you are trolling or asking legitimate questions, but I'll bite on your questions regarding the West's military ramp up. Here are just SOME examples of the more than $1.5 Trillion usd worth of new weapons platforms that the West has ordered recently.

Again, these are just SOME examples. Almost every NATO country has announced substantial spending increases and nost have made equipment purchases. This doesn't even address all of the munitions and technology that the West is investing in.
Just 2 in half years, ohh come on I know some wars that took the U.S. a little bit far longer lol. And I assure you what Russia destroyed is far greater than what the US has destroyed in the middle east that its not even comparable. Naval assets? They do have quite a lot of submarines that carry quite a lot of missiles that are more on the advanced sophisticated side where 1 missile can do the trick for 1 Naval target.It has taken Russia 3 friggen years and the destruction of a significant portion of their Soviet stockpile, to take 20% of Ukraine, supplied with mostly obsolete western army equipment pulled out of storage, no relavent air force assets until recently and no naval assets...
Russia alone has more manpower, artillery fire and equipment than Europe does. The US has a shitload of active duty troops and firepower they can bring along, but the major problem to that is they have to cross a large body of sea which is time consuming with whatever available manpower that offers which will get targetted by coastal and aerial BMS, or cruise missiles/ scramjet missiles.In a non-nuclear environment, NATO would absolutely abuse Russia. In a world in which NATO stepped in to push Russia out of Ukraine, Putin would come to the negotiating table within hours with his tail between his legs looking for a deal. Otherwise, NATO would rain absolute he'll down on his army. Russia can't even establish air supremacy over Ukraine.
I think everyone in this forum saw how invincible those F-35s were when they blew up in Israel. The Russians have enough missiles and drones with better precision and countermeasures to blow up air bases as far as those aircrafts combat ranges can take them from Russia. The Russians have started photonic integrated circuits production 2 weeks ago meaning in some coming years the Russians will be utilizing photonic radars with miniature airbreathing engines that would make 4th gen aircrafts blow up 5th gens depending how much missiles they can carry for each 5th gen aircraft targeted and this can get combined with modernized S-400, S-350, modernized S-300s S-500, S-550 or A-235 missiles systems assuming photonic radars are being developed for these systems as well. Su-75s and Su-70s can serve as cheap stealth air to air missile UAV carriers for the Su-57 since radars like photonic radars in the millimeter wave can track 100s of targets. And if worse comes to worse Russia can share all their technology with China in a major war and based on their electronics and missile production I say good luck facing something that has better production, enough manpower, alot of satellites and received a technological leap from the Russians.If 500 (just a fraction) 4th and 5th Generation F-35s, F-22s, F-18s, F-15s, Eurofighters, Rafales, etc showed in support of Ukraine, the war would virtually be over. The West would establish air supremacy within a week. Russia's Air Force would retreat back into the Russian interior and the war would come to a quick conclusion.
Sorry that the Iranians destroyed the thought of what is considered superman in this forum.No F-35s were lost in Israel, which makes every other stat you cite here, in past, or in future pretty damn suspect.
And I'm even with you on the Russian air force not getting the credit it deserves overall, they have some formidable stuff, much moreso than China. But man, talk about a self-own.
