Interesting news regarding 155mm artillery shell deliveries from France 🇫🇷, for the Caesar 155mm self-propelled howitzers. Throughout 2023 France has been sending Ukraine approximately 1000 155mm artillery shells each month. However, in cooperation with Australia, the French will up that number...
This is correct.
On a side note, it will be interesting to see how many Switchblade 600 drones get introduced into the theater in the coming months. They have substantially longer range than Russian Lancet drones and pack a similar punch. I doubt Ukraine will get nearly enough to saturate...
USA 🇺🇸 confirms all 31 M1A1 Abrams MBTs that they have committed to Ukraine have arrived, along 120mm depleted uranium rounds. These tanks will be used to reinforce the Ukrainian brigades that feature Western MBTs...
Long version of the attack on Berdyansk airfield, filmed by the Russians. In the video you see multiple helicopters on fire, the ammunition warehouse at the field exploding and at the end of the video the guys filming the video start running as an additional strike occurs...
The breathing room Ukraine will get by Russia being forced to move their helicopter fleet back into Russia will be really nice. It's going to be much harder for Russia to use them in a close air support role moving forward without being able to base them in places like Berdyansk and Luhansk.
It's now confirmed that USA 🇺🇸 quietly provided Ukraine ATACMs ballistic missiles, which they kept quiet so that they could be used in a strike against Russian aviation. The Americans sent an older version of the missile, the M39 block 1 variant, produced in 1997. Technically, the missiles are...
In the largest strike on Russian aviation since the outset of the war, Ukraine struck airfields in Berdyansk and Luhansk overnight, reportedly damaging / destroying up to 9 Russian helicopters, killing dozens of personnel and detonating the ammunition storage in Berdyansk. Russian millbloggers...
Absolutely heartbreaking for that family 😪... I sincerely hope they were not among the people that Hamas blockaded from leaving their homes, insisting that they stay to be human shields against Israeli air strikes.
Here are some updates on weapons for Ukraine from over the weekend.
1. An undisclosed country is going to lease Ukraine air defense assets to help protect its energy infrastructure for the winter months. The country leasing the air defense assets want their identity kept quiet.
2. The...
According to Israel, Hamas is blockading Palestinian civilians from leaving northern Gaza, the area that they've given civilians a warning to leave in, as they prepare a ground attack. Israel has again extended the timeline for civilians to leave because of the blockade they're claiming. They...
Nice addition to the region to ensure the combined safety of the American fleet, in case someone gets the idea of targeting the carrier battlegroup already there. Lots of destroyers and submarines come along with the carriers.
I think it could be an excellent fight as well. When the U.S. invaded Iraq, they dropped 29,000 air launched munitions on Hussein's troops prior to commencing the offensive. I don't think Israel will be anywhere near that initially. They'll need substantial shipments of air launched ordinance...
The Kyiv assault an absolute disaster for the Russians. One of the best decisions they've made in the war war abandoning that plan before that entire convoy was shattered.
If you want a good example of how to do a ground war, it's to do it in combined arms fashion with the expertise the USA...
Come on man, the drama in this post is beneath you. "The Europeans came begging"... They didn't want to pay Russia for their natural gas and help the Russians fund their war in Ukraine. Qatar saw an opportunity to step in, with American support and make a shit ton of money selling gas to the EU...
I actually think the author has some points here. That's why I've been saying that if Israel has their own soldiers best interests in mind, they'll priotize air strikes and artillery barrages, rather than conduct a ground war against the likes of Hamas and Hezbollah. They possess significant...
Bahahaha sure you will Qatar. You're going to deeply impact your nation's own economy and damage all of your political ties to make a moral argument about Palestine?
Zero chance in hell. Great bluff though!
What is crazy about Western financial support for Israel is how miniscule it is in the grand scheme of our economies. Here is an example. The United States, is by far, the largest military backer of Israel, sending them about $3.5 billion in military aid each year. $3.5 billion sounds like a...
Two sides doing the the best they can to win the struggle. May the best man win!
Objectively, that's actually really neat combat footage. Thanks for sharing!
After delays Boeing / Saab are finally ready to deliver the first of the promised GLSDBs (Ground Launched Small Diameter Bombs) to Ukraine. The delivery will include a newly designed launcher.
For those interested, GLSDB has a launcher similar to HIMARS or M270 (and can actually be launched...
The major Russian attack on Avdiivka is turning into an abject disaster for the Ruskis. There is insane footage of their losses on Reddit Combat footage page.
In three days Russia has lost more than 100 MBTs and IFVs in the area and they have so many dead and wounded that they are crying out...
