Ukrainians are really bad when it comes to maintain and hide ther equipments, another IRIS-T destroyed. Waste of weapons and money. I don't now what they are using but it is really accurate.

Spartz is simply a Russian stooge, flapping her gums to make money and gain clout. She's a moron, and the exact type of Right Wing clown that the Patrick Bet David Podcast thoroughly enjoys propping up and introducing to the mainstream via their YouTube audience.

I wouldn't say she's a Russian stooge. Spartz is mentally unstable, populistic, and very dumb. She was elected from a rural district in Indiana, is very pro-Trump, and her whole platform is based around her past as an accountant and that as a result she is in a position to manage money in DC.

If you ever listen to her speeches you'll notice she often makes absolutely no sense. This is so well known that members of Congress often walk out when she starts speaking. She has the highest staff turnover rate of anyone in Congress, so bad that staff make audio recordings of her requests to prove this is what she asked for. Spartz co-sponsored the resolution condemning the abduction of Ukrainian children by Russia, but didn’t bother showing up to vote on it.

Despite this, because she's in a very MAGA district, her Primaries opponent is running ads criticizing her past “excessive” support of Ukraine. But instead of standing up for herself, she flip-flops, and insists her new focus is on government spending and transparency in healthcare — pursuits that she claims are more worth her time. Spartz is the embodiment of everything that’s wrong with DC, choosing craven populism and the safety of party line over sound policy and honesty. The USSR would be proud.

Yeah,
Dear Russians, do us a favour and break France's neck.

Yes, it would be interesting to watch from the side how a Russian bear furiosly plucks the feathers of a French rooster

Italy will send an additional SAMP/T air defense battery to Ukraine. SAMP/T is considered a tier 1 one air defense system along with Patriot.

Italy's newest defense package will also include 155mm artillery shells and Stinger MANPADS among other weaponry. The Italians are also considering sending additional 155mm artillery systems and between 100-200 Stormshadow cruise missiles.

Germany will send an additional 6 TRML-4D air defense radars to Ukraine. The units work in conjunction with IRIS-T SLM / SLS air defense systems, or as standalone units that can be integrated into the overall air defense picture. They have range up to 250km and can track up to 1500 targets simultaneously.

The units will arrive throughout 2024 as German manufacturer Hensoldt completes production.

USA is working closely with NATO Allies to front Ukraine $50 Billion usd in direct aid that they can then use however they see fit. The partners in the initiative would then have their fronted funds paid back using the more than $5 Billion usd in annual windfall profits generated from the 300+ Billion usd in frozen Russian assets that exist in Western banks and financial institutions.

This would be a massive infusion of money, significantly more than the $40 Billion usd Ukraine is spending on its military this year. It would give them enormous short and mid term flexibility to buy more weapons from countries such as Turkey , Poland and Bulgaria who have lots to sell to a country flush with cash and willing to pay the price.

It's not the money that is lacking so far. It's time, Ukrainian are racing against time to hold the line. Most countries already sent most of what they could from existing arsenal. They could send a lot more from new/restarted production lines. But it will take time. Those F16s are no longer relevant at this point as a high ranking Ukrainian official pointed out recently. Fancy stuff coming late won't help much.

Those F16s are no longer relevant at this point as a high ranking Ukrainian official pointed out recently. Fancy stuff coming late won't help much.

We shall see about that. Right now it seems that there is a big push for getting a large number of high quality air defence systems for Ukraine, to coincide with the arrival of F16s.

If the F16s come together with air defence and many missiles, they could turn the tide of war. If Ukraine manages to dominate the air war and stop Russia from using gliding bombs while also hitting them behind the frontline, the situation may change dramatically.

Remember that this war has had various stages, some in which Russia was dominating and gaining ground, and others when Ukraine had the initiative. Right now the Russians are having the initiative and they are pushing on many fronts, but their advances are so far very slow, akin to the failed Ukrainian counteroffensive of last year. If they don’t manage to make serious gains before the arrival of F16s, they may not be able to do so afterwards.

While Russia has already ramped up its military industry, the same process is also happening in the West, but at a slower pace. This means that Russia had a bigger boost for now from this, but over time the ramping up of the Western MIC will outpace any increase Russia may have from now on.

Russia may experience its strongest moments in this war right now, and if they don’t manage to capitalize on this period of Ukrainian weakness, they may not have a second chance.

Long term, I think the odds are still in Ukraine’s favor, as the US and Europe can afford the costs of this war for a much longer period of time than Russia.

As if the worst is yet to come, the current Su-34 could launch and guide 4 simultaneous FAB UMPK bombs (up from 2 in early 2023) and they're working so that later Su-34 could launch 6 per in one go.

6 highly accurate and often times carrying cluster munitions glide bombs. Just from one plane

The first footage of 6 UMPK falling in one go. Note that the goal for the Russian Air Force is 8 UMPK in a single SU-34 eventually.

I've said it before and I say it again. For Bakhmut to be reconstructed into a glittering new city like Mariupol, the Ukrainian army must be kicked at least 200km back from the front line so that they would not interfere in the rebuilding.

Here's recent Mariupol btw.

Footage of a damaged American-made Ukrainian M1A1 Abrams tank in the Avdiivka direction. The tank belonged to the 47th separate mechanized brigade of the Ukrainian Army; the crew of the M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle came to its aid; it will be shown at the end of the video. In this episode of the battle in Ukraine, it is not clear what hit the tank; it is reported that the strike was caused by a high-precision Krasnopol projectile; according to other sources, ammunition was dropped on the tank from a drone. It is unknown how the tank ended up in the ditch; perhaps it was a mistake by the tank’s driver. Now there is still no footage of the tank being hit in motion. The video shows a tank standing in a ditch, it was reportedly struck by an anti-tank missile system, a Lancet drone, and an artillery strike is also visible nearby. After the tank was destroyed, the crew abandoned it. The M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle came to the aid of the tank, but it was hit by an anti-tank missile system, possibly by a drone; the fate of the crew is unknown.

But most Indians still love Russia. It doesn’t matter that Russia treats them like that. They just love Russia and hate the West.
