odds are it doesnt even know that it being engaged.Looks like no evasive maneuvers being done by the Ka-52...
This brings question about what's with the Kamov's MAWS or LWR system. as Stugna is a laser beamrider

I just thought of a crackpot theory that US wants to prolong this war, making this as a new status quo in order to control EU militarily through the Russia boogeyman threat, war crimes and human rights violation to control them politically.
To add some credence to the theory, US have been making exemptions to their sanctions and have been secretly evading their own sanctions anyways. Another is the constant announcement of weapons delivery, like why would you tell everyone in public, giving Russia knowledge of what's to come and to prepare for.
Indeed, but then there are some signs its no going fully their way. Like some of the EU countries still ended up electing a pro-Russian candidate like Hungary and anti-EU/NATO candidate Le Pen is gaining popularity.Not a crackpot theory at all, the US would love to create a sustained bleeding wound for both Russia and Europe. The entire NATO expansion initiative is to create friction point to destroy Eurasia cooperation at large
Could we get over of Bucha?An uncomfortable thought is that behind the overt nation level conflict and different to the popular separatism that we saw in the Crimea and the Donbas, that there is a simmering sectarian conflict which is coming rapidly to the boil.
The Events of Bucha do not bode well and whatever actually happened, it will only exacerbate sectarian tensions on both sides as both sides will see themselves as the victims in all such.
If we see these events repeated in other recently Russian occupied towns, this might explode into a whole new partisan war with absolutely no front line at all.
I think that even without events like Bucha, the Ukrainian population will eventually hate the Russian because of the war disrupting their daily life and killing their own people. The more this conflict prolongs, the more those resentment and anger turns into hatred, and from that hatred it turns into a scar for the relation between the population for generation to come.An uncomfortable thought is that behind the overt nation level conflict and different to the popular separatism that we saw in the Crimea and the Donbas, that there is a simmering sectarian conflict which is coming rapidly to the boil.

Maybe just send gaz to Germany with Northstream 2 ? Would be epic.Seriously, they need to start hitting the infrastructure of any place they don't intend to occupy with carpet bombing, air dispensed mines (for area targets) and missiles (for point targets).
These include:
1. cities west of the Dnieper
2. bridges across the Dnieper except the ones near Kherson
3. all Ukrainian oil refineries, semiconductor fabs (if any), bridges west of the Dnieper, tunnel entrances, etc.
4. farmland that is used to export grain to adversary countries (legal per US doctrine re: Agent Orange)
5. all fossil fuel power plants not connected with the eastern or southern Ukrainian grids
Second, shut off the gas pipelines crossing Ukraine first unless the end buyers pay in rubles, and then provide gas supply data to the end users and immediately publicize if Ukraine siphons gas.
This was Putin being delusionalI think this factor will sadly escalate the degree of violence in the battlefield and make the idea Russians have that Ukrainians are "brothers" turn into nothing.
Another delusional mistake from Putin. Its like he thought that by bombing them, Ukrainians would love Russia even more. Did he really think that Ukraine has Stockholm Syndrome?!Putin went in the war trying to minimize the casualties because he wants to win the Ukrainian populace's hearts, and to cater to the domestic majority in Russia that sees Ukraine as Russians.
It might be a real war. Because whats happening so far has been Putin's "brother" warWe may unfortunately see them turn to more high-collateral means of winning their battles.
