Indeed, and had close ties with Estonia. Major-General Dzohar Dudajev was the commander of Tartu military airfield in Raadi, which was the largest Baltic airfield. Meaning it was the only nuclear target in the Baltics at this time. It was home to 132 TBAP (132nd Heavy Bomber Aviation Regiment)...

I do not know the answers, but someone had all those already 1995 Dzhokhar Dudaev:

Another good interview with a Russian military analyst about the situation in U.-R.war, opposing this "slow locomotive approach", as it was advertised by some of fellow forum members. Russian Defence Research Expert on AFU performance, the effect of Western weapon supplies...

One pretty interesting and open-minded interview with U. general Serhii Krivonos about U.-R. war, the reasons behind it, Kyiv defense, and so forth. Piece of it: "We know very well and have heard Putin say more than once that the collapse of the Soviet Union was a big mistake. And Putin sees...

This is one thing Russia is great about killing more of their own rather than enemies, who will be killed along, somehow. Well, I would not be so negative. The thing is, U. does not want to waste their people and infra like R. U. has to find a way to overcome such obstacles and so far they have...

Perhaps some explanation for Russia's behavior regarding the contracts and so forth. Russians consider themselves a Christian nation and faithful followers of God. Accordingly, all treaties and agreements made must be accepted by God. Without God's approval, it is not worth of paper on which...

I wonder the same and no offence taken. It is often off topic, little to do with Ukraine war. I am taking a lot of risks here. Saying so, 35 years ago the same could be said about me. I was not better and even of I would listen, I could not apply this knowledge without risk to my well being...

This is the thing many people do not understand. NATO does not expand but accepts new member states willing to join. More members, the stronger potential, and more ways to share the military burden among member state budgets. Look, when USSR collapsed and there were concerns regarding the...

The only common thing NATO countries share is the military command and control system, military planning included. The risks are evaluated, necessary capabilities estimated, and then there will be a discussion between NATO member leaders about who does what. When Estonia joined NATO, we had...

Fake news, generated by the humourist team from Panorama. https://panorama.pub/news/v-litve-nacali-razbirat-zeleznodoroznye

Well, experienced militants should know this. There is no such thing as NATO forces, but member states dedicating their military units to a common cause. But hey, if one likes to think about NATO having its own independent agenda and getting somehow mysteriously funded in order to dominate over...

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday warned Finland and Sweden that if they welcome NATO troops and military infrastructure onto their territory, Moscow will respond in kind. PUTIN has made a chilling threat to Europe as he warned that if Sweden and Finland join NATO there will be...

A RUSI report about how could U. win this war. Ukraine has the will to achieve the operational defeat of the Russian military. At present, however, several Russian advantages and Ukrainian weaknesses are leading to an attritional conflict that risks a protracted war, eventually favouring...

Hei, this sounds now like a most fruitful discussion to me. My respect! Regarding Mr. Putins IQ, I am not so impressed. He definitely manages to find original moves and surprise enemies. Most of the time. He is master in tactical level, but manages to fuck it up in strategic level. For example...

Harsh, but true words. I hate to agree, but I must. This is Latvia, which decided to switch to a professional army, now renewing conscript logic. Actually, Estonia was not so far from it either. Being so close to the frontline, 2% of GDP spared for military expenditure is definitely not enough...

Yeah, sorry about that. Russia and China have never been friends, that is true. These countries have some common goals to share for the moment, that is all that I am saying. The common goal is to get rid of the United States' monopolistic dominance, as stated by Mr. Putin at Munich Security...

Short news clip from ABC News: "Quality application of HIMARS: a pride not only for Ukraine, but also for America"

Oh, now I am emotional, sorry for that in advance. Well, we are passed this red line already for four or so months. I am glad, that somebody from german speaking countries finally realizes this awful situation. No, this is not a game. Russia is really trying to build an alternative world...

Another thread of logistic problem analysis Russians facing after US MRLS arrival: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1544472420484091905.html Some more R. ammo depo fires for today: Belgogrod Makeevka Kadievka Herson Donetsk Donetsk_2 Donetsk_3 Donetsk oil depo fire Somebody bright man said...

Thank You! Now you managed to get some credibility. I am inclined to think that there is always something to learn from everyone. Our fate and life experiences are so different, that there must be something worth learning. Sometimes it is hard to find and often I am wondering, whether it is...
