magnkarl Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 One would have thought that Russia had developed from the cluster¤%¤#% of Convoy v1, alas they are now driving a 17km long convoy in the samme manner through Kharkiv Oblast, obviously with the same results as around Kyiv. It's like Putin thinks the war is won by having the longest convoy. Ukraine attacking accordingly, of course. Apparently a big part of this convoy is old soviet style machinery, according to Maxar.

Jareth Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 (edited) I hate Boris - but that was the right move - symbolically important and for once I don’t believe it a cynical photo op. Fair play Edited April 10, 2022 by Jareth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play I'd guess there must be a line of politicians wanting to visit Kiev now that Russia pulled out of there. Regardless of whether it's cynical or not, it's a PR masterpiece.

To be honest I thought no such thing. There have been indications that Russia's army isn't all that since the early 90's. The "modernisation" they've gone through doesn't do jack with their decrepit infrastructure, command lines and idiotic mentality. They've progressed in the few areas where they can actually use their doctrine, otherwise Putin's "show of force" has been anything but. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnkarl Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Three or four squads of UA special forces have now completed training in the U.S with the Switchblade (and very likely other U.S weaponry), and will land later today. I suspect any convoy will get shredded, bogged down and made to turn back. There's at least 4 UA NCO's in the picture, and they're in what seems to be NSW SOCOM in Virginia.
