avfc1982am Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Really interesting if anyone wants to watch. Also at 09:25 he explains where the Russians would struggle in a large scale land battle. Organic and pop-up targets(precision targets), hence the use of more twin seaters as they also rely more on TV and optical guidance. He also breaks down all the technical abilities comparable to what the west has. Really interesting and probably the reason Ukraine have had success with aircrafts similar to the Mujahideen with stingers against the Russians.

magnkarl Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) Russia has now launched close to 670 missiles into Ukraine, pretty much emptying their capacity. Putin thought it would be over in 1 day, so he prematurely used too many of his missiles. Good luck making new ones without chips and computing. Similar to how he performs in the bed I presume. Two pump champ. Edited March 7, 2022 by magnkarl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a lot of them are based around Russia in defensive positions against I.e Norway, Lithuania, Estonia etc. it takes ages to make a missile, and that is if you have the ingredients and can afford to produce them.

No - but I don't see them stopping this war. And Boris does have previous for making these grand policy statements - without any idea or planning on how to implement them. The 2 Russian s with seized assets for example. Edited March 7, 2022 by hippo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And at some point the Ukranians will be fine for missiles and blokes to shoot them, and less fine for sleeping bags, coffee and toilet roll.

HanoiVillan Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 8 hours ago, Awol said: Thanks, that’s a good read. Where I think she’s slightly off is focusing on the oligarchs - as ever, it’s the men with guns who tend to be decisive in questions of power. The sanctions will bankrupt the state (as she says) at which point the military leadership either watches its forces (the source of their status and power) walk out of the gates, or they take action to right the ship by installing a new captain. When the people ordering you to do bad things can no longer even feed you, maintaining their position atop a pyramid of coercion becomes very difficult. You're right that ultimately it's the military that decide, but the examples of Iran, Cuba, Venezuela and Myanmar - to say nothing of North Korea - all show that a country can be really quite impoverished and politically and economically isolated with the miitary staying loyal. I'm not saying a coup is impossible, bu nobody should be betting on it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted March 7, 2022 Moderator Share Posted March 7, 2022 The USA is looking at lifting their range of sanctions on Venezuela after fifteen years of trying to starve the population. So at least some good has come from this war as we make friends with other people with oil. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I mean at some point western leaders may start to get a bit antsy about the escalating price of fuel and the effects of inflation. Macron's up soon, and it's mid-terms year in the States . . .

If the 670 odd regular vanilla missiles is anything like accurate then the reported 3,000 nuclear missiles can’t be anything like true.

Delphinho123 Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Question. If Russia launched a nuke at us, would we be able to shoot it out of the sky before it kills us all? Or do they drop them from planes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
