Ukrainian War Developments

Cant confirm the claim but it’s an interesting one.

Ukrainian tank crews are now running with dummy-reactive armour. The cartridges are empty. DPR reports that the Ukrainian tanks now go down with a simple RPG-7.

From the WSJ article:



Don't think weapons will help.
The Saudis hold the leverage here and they'll milk every drop of this crisis along with the Iranians and Venezuelans.

Russia is getting some breathing space from this poor diplomacy.

I can hardly believe that, what are the Saud house playing at, war in Yemen going south and lack of interest from USA?

Perhaps this might shed some light:

It is essentially saying that any attack on supply lines of NATO nations would trigger the Article 5 clause. What is vague, and perhaps deliberately so, is that it makes no mention of whether or not attack against said supply lines within Ukraine's borders would trigger the same clause.

article 5 ? unfortunately NATO dares not, more precisely America dares not. the Polish Mig-29s nobody dares to take.

Well i guess Ghost of Kyiv is very pissed now that Her spare planes or wingman's planes arent gonna come.

Common guys, don't take the bait. If you guys continue to reply to him, then his goal of derailing the thread and getting the thread locked would be complete.

Don't let him derail the thread. Stop replying to him. It is obviously a bait and trolling.

Why can't we just ban people that does this? It's getting ridiculous.

Putin has made it clear that whoever sends a plane into the Ukrainian airspace will be a party of the conflict, he doesn't care which organization you are a member. I guess Poland may try to smuggle those mig-29s into Ukraine.

I do. I doubt you will, though.

What is Russia's tactical goal. Is it to take every city in Ukraine? Is it to take every city that it presently encircles or is now encircling or trying to encircle, all of them through a full scale combined arms onslaught? Or is it to partially encircle certain cities, fully encircle other cities, and also storm some cities, all in a bid to obtain leverage in negotiations with Ukraine that ultimately result in neutrality and formal territorial concessions in the Donbass and Crimea?

 

[Weaasel]

Guess that explains why Russia concentrate on getting the supply depo flattened, or encircle the city where the supplies are going to instead.

That makes sense. But they can still improvise to use other buildings, any building as a supply Depot. What the Russians are trying to obviously is to encircle particular cities and locations so as to prevent their resupply, and also to interdict any supplies that would come to those cities.

 

[Abominable]

Seriously. MiG-29 would just get slaughtered by Su-35 + A-50U + S-400 combo. Doubt they would even be able to make a single air combat kill.

I think Russia may allow them to shoot down a plane or two and fly back home to help fan domestic outrage. Something like Pearl Harbour.

Then launch a nuclear weapon at whatever base they flew in from as well as a demand for unconditional surrender from Poland.
