Who remembers? In what place in the world does the Russian army stand in terms of power: in the first or in the second?

How long will it take if Putin decides to reach the English Channel with his army? According to this song


"And when the chants of the Bandera bastards are again heard on the streets of Europe and when Germany allows Ukrainian refugees to hold events, who shout "Glory to Ukraine, glory to the heroes!", "Death to the enemies!" you will get to "Heil Hitler" because his mongrels yelled it. Or is that what you want in Germany? And when you threaten Russia with the next sanctions, you shove them up your ass! Wrap it up with a tube. Putin also told you about the NATO structure on the 1997 border, nuclear weapons to the countries to which they belong. If you think that we will stop at Ukraine, then think 300 times. Let me remind you that Ukraine is just an intermediate stage in ensuring the strategic security of the Russian Federation. See us".

Drones are not universal wonder weapons, their use changes according to battlefield, the battle has shifted to consolidated fronts meaning booth sides having air defence coverage.
The battlefields being close to Russia borders or controlled zones makes it difficult to operate any airforce hence we see less footage, Ukraine has 30+ TB-2's, if we believe Russian claims then they already shot down 90 but visual proof without the recycled wreckage is about 5 shot down drones as far as i know.
A small price for the amount of damage they have done.
If both sides have Air coverage and there is a high chance of losing one i rather use a Low-cost one and not MQ-1/TB2, I mean look at it, Chinese or even Iranian like Mohajer-6 i think Mohajer-6 now can cary up to 6 mini-PGMs even if you lose one that doesn't hurt.

Following its invasion of Ukraine, foreign lessors had to terminate contracts with Russian operators due to the sanctions imposed on the country. However, Russia began re-registering aircraft in the country as a way to avoid repossession. It is possible that the latest detention in Sri Lanka has something to do with that. But we’ll only know for sure once official statements are released either from Aeroflot or Colombo.

I dont believe a single word from both sides. Slavs are good storytellers. I only look at the map and i see 20% of Ukraine in Russian hands.
Several points here:
1) 7.3 % of the Ukraine was occupied prior this war. So in this war they occupied less than 13%.
2) As I noted there is extremely huge gap between militaries: Russia spent 1,300 billion $ on military since 2000, while Ukraine only 60 billion.
3) Ukraine was very hard to defend because it was surrounded by Russian troops from all sides:

Map_of_Ukraine_with_Cities.jpg


Red - land area with Russian troops and orange - danger of sea landing (prior the war Russians sent huge number of ships to black sea).

This situation is similar to Poland or Czechoslovakia in 1938-1939 and even worse. Poland was fully occupied in 20 days and Czechoslovakia surrounded without fight.


Extra land and lebensraum is always good no matter what it costs, its worth it (look at Israel with Palestine and Turkey with Cyprus).

Russia has enormous amount of empty lands, thousands of abandoned villages, its population is rapidly shrinking (1 million a year).

The anti-Russian PR and anti-Russian hate-waves and witch-hunts of februari and march are gone, nobody gives a fuck anymore because more and more people are seeing the story behind te war.
Sanctions are not going away they will only grow. They affect Russia extremely hard in long term.

Russians are laughing their asses off. Those sanctions and economic penalties only affects the ones who put them forward (EU, UK, US), it doesnt hurt Russia. Russian citizens have cheap fuel and gas and wheat and grain but Europe will pay rocketprices after coming winter for everything.
You watch too much Russian propaganda. Inflation in Russia is many times higher than in western countries (and in Westen countries it is due to money printed during covid). Car sales in 3 months in Russia dropped by 85%. Western economies will grow in by about 3% 2022, Russian economy will drop by 12%. And thats only the beginning.

Russians have now 20% extra land and Ukraine lost 20% land and that just in 4 months fighting.
Your math is bad. Russia gained 0.4% of territory in this war.

Every country wishes to be in Russia's place; grabbing chunks of land from Ukraine, Moldavia, Syria, Georgia and Azerbaijan and still standing straight on both legs with nukes, oil, gas, grain and huge armies. I wish Turkey could grab 20% of Greece.
You wish 20% of Gree at cost of destroyed economics and future?

caused by russian carpet bombing in any way?
got that mixed up with NATO

Russians actually at the start of the war actually had the golden chance of actually destroying tb2 hangars and command centres.

As usual Russians with their shitty planning and intelligence left the tb2s unharmed.

Just like their failure with by sending the vdv to their deaths.
this is why I want Ukraine to receive HIMARs with 500km missiles so that Putin can treate Ukraine like an actual war

Sometimes the only option is no airforce at all but artillery instead, which is what Ukraine is doing now.

the latest high tech russian T-90M.
It was this russian tank and his crew that shot the column with civilians who wanted to evacuate from the village, more than 10 people were killed, even one child. And another baby with his mother are in intensive care.


what happened is that Territorial defense soldiers burned the newest (best?) Russian T90M tank with the help of a Swedish Carl Gustav missile sent to us by Canada.
