It's not that Russia can't make drones at all, it's that they don't have them in large enough numbers. In a conflict like this, drones should be used as consumables.

If a drone dies while exposing an enemy sam site or even just a manpad team it is worth it. As of now apparently Russia can't afford to use them this way?

Expecting a big team to analyse , identify, rank the information, afterward to transfer it to a military unit to attack the target.


Require lot of resources, possible if the oposition country is small and you have lot of time, but this is not the case.

It still doesn't help with the gas issue, where Russia supplies approximately 40% of European demand.
Most of this is covered by the 4 pipeline networks below.

55BCM Nord Stream 1 (Baltic Sea)
33BCM Yamal–Europe (Poland-Belarus)
26BCM Soyuz (Ukraine)
28BCM Brotherhood (Ukraine)

If Europe wanted to completely replace this gas, given that the average new build LNG tanker carries 0.17BCM of gas, Europe would need an additional 835 LNG tanker deliveries per year or new pipelines from alternative sources.

That would take at least 3 years.

835?? China can build 2 dozens per year

Do you guys think Kharkiv will be taken in a day? If so, do you think an encirclement on Ukrainian units still on the eastern front is possible?

What, 150k troops is not a lot of resources?

we havent seen the global shortages and real inflation to make decision yet.
Europe is completely squeezed between Chinese exports and Arab energy prices. both groups are making money out it.
even Russia exports 100% stops to Europe. it can rely on these two. Russia is too attractive for routes , technical people and resources. that these two parties will hammer Europe with Russia.
I even think Russia exports to Turkey can exceed Germany easily.

Kind of this the European economic situation was always heavily in the advantage of the west.
The last 2 years it has shown how much of this is just fake, bytes going from server A to server B and kids flipping burgers.
Im just sitting out corona(hopefully it will normal again before 2024) for a bit before I'll migrate to Asia.

After the negotiation fails to materialise, I suspect the Russisians will push for an encirclement of East Ukraine.

I am 70% certain that it will happen. However, I think Russia may need to commit some of its reserves to push quickly into eastern Ukraine. Or else Ukrainian armored formations may escape
