I wonder what Ukrainin plan is, are they gonna retake everything?
These are positive developments yet its the Russians who are retreating from these places, i guess the recapture in south and east wont go as smoothly.

Russia's debacle from the northern front will probably free up Ukrainian forces to reinforce troops in the south and the east. However I have doubts over Russia's offensive potential given the high attrition they have suffered on every fronts. This fact will either make the Ukrainians hold their positions or go on the counter offensive.

Ukraine need good airforce and artillery to start an effective offensive now, the west should start providing those now or the war wil be long and blody.

Did you saw the Ukrainian airfields? There is no chance that the West can send aircrafts without Russia destroying them immediately with missile strikes.

Paired with air defense? I mean there sure must be a way.

What happened with Kyiv, have the Russians given up taking the city ?


Russians were reportedly using old soviet telephone lines so they dont get intercepted reported by a soldier serving in the donbass region.

Just shows how pathetic the Russians are how many holes their military has to fill.

Ukrainians using were using high tech communications while using ew capabilities.

I know Russian fanboys are going to do damage control by saying that Nato supplied them well. Look at that nato did not have to fight this war apart from sending its own shit and that shit defeated them without even firing a bullet.

Russians once again not only have to reform and modernise but also have to try into new avenues of warfare that they are backwards or behind in.

Damn they are really a true paper tiger that still lives in the cold war and soviet era with a bloated military that has not move forward.

Russians trying and introducing new equipment was either cut or put into modernising their exisiting equipment.

This war has not only destroyed their image of a strong military but also their military industry as a result.

I dont see them recovering especially their prestige. Ukrainians despite their country getting destroyed and paying the price for it they basically whop the Russians asses.

Russians can only claim a pyrrhric victory.

UK has a limited supply of Harpoon AShM. The Transfer would leave British Ships without any way to supply in case of a conflict and the green light would be needed by the US Government. Also does the UK have Coastal Batteries to transfer or how would the Ukrainian Forces fire those missiles?

I don't think Biden will allow the transfer of Harpoon missiles to Ukraine. Ukraine striking and sinking Russian ships would be seen as escalation by the White House.

Ukrainian military expert Oleg Zhdanov says that the front has stabilized in 2 weeks. There was an operational pause. Ukraine uses this operational pause to regroup its troops. The decisive battles will take place in 10 days, because the Russian army will regroup. Putin is rushing them to celebrate the victory in Ukraine by May 7, the next anniversary of the victory over Germany, which is celebrated in Russia. It is quite possible that they will attack unprepared. Ukrainians expect attacks from all sides, but with particular persistence in the Donbass


The Russian analyst Mikhail Khodarenok says that we should not underestimate the operational and technical capabilities of the military forces of Ukraine. He says that the volume of aid is increasing every day, Ukrainians are being given more and more weapons, we have already talked about Javelins and NLAW. They received the Matador anti-tank complex made in Germany in cooperation with Israel and Singapore, which comes in the amount of several thousand, called 2 thousand pieces. This is a very effective means of combating all types of armored combat vehicles, as well as unfortunately Javelin, as well as unfortunately NLAW, which have shown themselves very well in battle. Portable anti-aircraft missile systems of several types have been delivered, by the way, this has made the actions of our army aviation and assault aviation very difficult, that is, it is very dangerous to descend below 3.5 thousand meters. Plus, they receive the Starstreak anti-aircraft missile system, which is also a type of portable missile system developed by the UK, but now it already operates at altitudes up to 6 thousand meters, according to some estimates up to 7 thousand meters. Zelensky has already asked Norway for the NASAMS complex, it reaches an altitude of 16 thousand meters. In order for aviation to operate effectively, it must fly at low and medium altitudes, and not at an altitude of 10 thousand meters. That is, the opposition to our aviation is increasing every day. In order to learn how to use these types of weapons, it will not take much time. Over time, arms supplies move into a non-public, closed sphere.

The aircraft looks surprisingly intact (in one piece). Must be some Manpads hits.

An S-300 level explosive would torn the aircraft apart mid air. A 30mm gun /AAM hit from a fighter jet would resulted the same.

That means the Su-35 could likely be in a low level ground attack mission before getting downed. And because it's low level we could already guess that it's armed with dumb bombs or unguided rockets.
