What's the opinion on this recent actions taken by the Ukrainian politico-military on taking out Russian missile defense warning radar systems? Is this a good strategy to make against Russia by Ukraine by essentially sending a message that there's nowhere in Russia that Ukraine military will not target or out of area and out of reach.

Is this recent action their way to escalate to de-escalate, or is this a tactical adjustment to try and heel the Russians that there's no way for them to winning this conflict militarily without devastating Russia proper itself.

What message is the U.S. and it's European allies are sending to Russia? That there's no limits to when, where and scope of the attack unless Russia concedes and return the territories lost by Ukraine upto the 2014 border.

If this is the message they want to send, I am afraid that our dear leaders in the West live in another universe.

About the twitter message, he got some things wrong. For example Russians DO have a space warning system, and have had one for 50 years, the last update from 2015:

However, obviously this attacks tense the situation, and increase the possibility of an accident. As some other comment told above, before Russians could check the data of satellites with data from radars. Now, if satellite give a wrong warning, Russians does not have the other tool to confirm the attack, so they could answer to a wrong warning with their own attack.

But I think people is getting crazy thinking that there could be a nuclear first strike into Moscow. No one would be so crazy to do so even with all early warning radars destroyed.

The second strikes capabilities of Russia are enough to deter even the most crazy neocon.

This is just Ukrainians doing clasical ukranian crazy things like when they were attacking the Energodar nuclear power plant

This poor soul didn't even know where he was deployed and received no training what so ever. He was deployed three days after he got kidnapped. He found out where he was deployed after the Russians captured and told him.

Peter Szijjarto dropping more truth bombs. Keep in mind this is the foreign minister of a NATO member, so when he says NATO wants to send European troops to directly engage Russians, he is not engaging in conjecture.

If true it's likely to complement the F-16's but all this is meaningless unless they get another Patriot battery dedicated to protecting these aircraft
The package includes ASC 890 Airborne Surveillance and Control aircraft, as well as Rb 99 AMRAAM missiles. Sweden will also donate its entire stock of PBV 302 armored tracked personnel carriers and surplus tank vehicles from the armed forces.
