"Won't make it to the frontline" crap is still be stated, History has shown Ukraine has no problems getting gear to the frontline despite the many claims said gear never will make it.

Panzer 2000 is a very good system, If the russians know what's good for them they will not allow that many of those things to reach the frontline

What history?

Or do you have statistics available as to how many Ukrainian-destined weapon systems and munitions make it to the front-line versus how many are destroyed en-route? Because I sure haven't seen any one way or the other.

Like PD said it's a self-propelled gun

The difference in characteristics will not affect much, it's like arguing about what ATGM is better. So one gun shoots faster and with a longer range, another is slower or slightly less accurate - but the gun which is supplied with ammo consistently will have the advantage by far in any case over the gun which can only fire half the time.
And the battery that's organized and whose crew gets rest will outperform the adversary's battery even if their equipment is slightly more dated
And the side with more batteries and more ammo for them will completely blow away the other side

M777s have made it in bulk, Himars etc of course if you wanna try and pull the stats card which is impossible as no one here would have that information.

The statement was people HERE saying the weapons won't make it to the front despite the fact many many weapon systems have no problem is just a factually wrong statement

Yes I agree, the fact that no major rail lines from the West seem to be disabled, and bridges are running just fine puzzles me.  Perhaps this is the plan to disarm NATO? In any case interdiction has not been effective. They still have fuel and new weapons are arriving quite fast.

Former Russian president presents future map of Ukraine

Medvedev offers Kiev a visual on its worst case scenario

Ukraine is more likely to be reduced to Kiev and its surroundings than to ever re-encompass Crimea and the Donbass republics, former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev said on his Telegram channel on Wednesday.

The one-time president and long-time prime minister who now heads the national security council also posted two maps helpfully illustrating his argument.

The first map showed Ukraine in borders prior to the US-backed coup in 2014, including Crimea and the two eastern regions of Donetsk and Lugansk. A month after the militants backed by Washington seized power in Kiev, Crimea voted to rejoin Russia, while the two Donbass regions declared independence.

“In the mind of the president of Ukraine, damaged by psychotropic substances, this is what the map of his country’s bright future will look like,” Medvedev wrote on Telegram.

“Western analysts believe it will look like this, actually,” he said, posting a second map. On it, “Ukraine” is reduced to Kiev and its surroundings. Seven regions in the West have been annexed by Poland, and three in the southwest by Hungary and Romania, respectively.

Everything else is marked “Russia.”

He did not specify which Western experts may have envisioned such a partition.

The Ukrainian government has repeatedly rejected any possibility of territorial concessions, insisting that Kiev’s objectives were a “capitulation” of Russia and “reintegration” of Donbass and Crimea.

Medvedev served as president of Russia between 2008 and 2012, and then as prime minister until 2020, when he was put in charge of the national security council. Over the course of the conflict in Ukraine, he has made a name for himself with colorful Telegram posts. Just this month, he warned Kiev of “Judgment Day” if they attacked Crimea and offered a list of “Russian sins,” followed up by those of the West.

Have they the manpower and firepower for this? How well have the Russians dug in there?
