    mr_hd wrote:So it seems that Ukraine is expermienting and testing its long range air and sea drones. For the sea drones they are basically probing Russian defenses and sensors and are starting to show new models with new capabilities.

    You mean the Russian navy is showcasing incredible air defense capabilities and naval defense capabilities to block stealth drones , while PATRIOT and western SAM and defense systems cannot do the same? SAM/P/T and NASAMS so far have let Ukraine get sent to the stone age LOL


    At the moment no one knows how many they poses - but generally number should be small. However even that is enough to block big part of the Black Sea and makes Black Sea fleet useless lol.

    The defense sites posted by western sources, show that the defenses are on the approach to Crimea, obviously you are American , as you cannot distinguish between the black sea and Crimea lmao

    On the airborne front, there are clips of Ukrainian UAV flying over the center of Moscow lol, it is proven they do have now drones with 1000km range. However they are not technically advanced yet and probably they are not able to mass produce them... yet.

    Those are some shitty capabilities- an Iranian Geran-2 has better range and control regularly overflying western sam sites and fortified areas like Odessa and Kiev lol

    However their UAV program is among the fastest developing in the world currently, around 80 companies are involved, program for more heavy and longer range attacking drones is still lacking more advanced programs, with more precision and resistance to electronic jamming for example but they are working on that.

    It's unfortunate they lag behind Iran lmfao

    Ukraine now is 11th spender on military in the world, it is enormous jump, 1/3 of their economy is dedicated for war conflict.

    They also lost 50%+ of their population LOL

    That means Russia will have huge problems there long-term, it is questionable how much territory would be able to keep.

    Russia is growing faster then the UK and Germany per the IMF

    Even Ukrainian ability to held parts of Bakhmut 6 months longer than it should shows that their military power grew in past year substantially. They made red line there and so far are able to immensely slow down and in some cases even to stop Russia lol.

    Russia lost some prisoners, and the VSU lost their entire army, while some fake leaks are coping for why their offensive is bogged LOL


    And btw Russia there has enormous losses of stuff and equipment (not only Ukraine, they have less, much less as they defend heavily fortified positions).

    Even western sources show that Russian losses are so low, that prisoner detachments have less than 15 losses a week, and can beat Ukrainian SOF units in attritional urban battle LOL



    So far Russian involvement proved to be disaster, country does not have such mighty hallo of great military power on global stage and its status will be more and more challenged. Ukraine will be fortress on its doorsteps and will be very aggressive toward any Russian interest with no compromise. Stay tuned.

    Russian military intervention has kept Ukraine out of NATO and guaranteed safety of the south western approaches of Russia,  instead of NATO tactical nukes pointed at Saratov and Engels, some taliban raids on frontier villages are all Russia has to deal with,

    I'd say it was worth it lol

    Stay tuned fool

    Interesting update, if not quite right for today it can't be long now.


    Erik Zimerman
    @ZimermanErik
    #Bakhmut is a cauldron, at least in terms of supply. Hard pressed withdrawal may still be possible through the muddy fields, on foot and by certain vehicles, but normal supply of the garrison is no long possible.

    Wagner forces are keeping a tight seal on information on what is happening in the NW, though there is plenty of progress daily in the West and SW.

    Ukraine, if it meant to stay, correctly threw everything it had on the supply flanks, elite forces around the Mig-17 monument in the SW and Khromove in the NW. As we have discussed for some time, they are the key to the whole battle.

    As they try to shore up these flanks, the center of the garrison is weakening and withdrawing, with relative easy daily Russian gains. Some internal pockets are already partially a fact on the ground, with Russian forces seizing the intersection of Yuvileyna and Chajkovsokogo st (the T-0504).

    But most importantly, RU forces are advancing quietly in Khromove towards the critical rural road junctions. The thermal data tells us the story. Here images for the 23rd and 24th, and then the 25th and 26th. Until a few hours ago, there were no big strikes in the south or main center of the UA grarrison, but rather an advance westward as would be the wisest.

    In the last few hours, there is thermal data at the western edge of the city, indicating RU forces readying for the last push, and some heavy strikes in the SW, west of the important intersection taken by RU forces.

    An operational cauldron is in place, tigher with each passing hour and day. The encirclement will be hermetic likely in the coming days, but already an orderly wheeled withdrawal without heavy losses is already impossible.

    As is typical, the Zelensky regime has abandoned some the nation's bravest to the wolves.

    The western mainstream media, with its irational praise of all actions Ukrainian and condemnation of all Russian, regardless of fact or circumstance, has helped convince government in Kiev that all universally agree that the most important thing on this earth is their political survival (not physicial survival of the people nor their land), and that all means are justifiable to this end.

    By keeping that up, there will come the point where the Ukrainian armed forces, at least the minority of them at the actual front, will no longer agree.

    This is the most retarded post by anyone on this forum in a long time. This is so stupid and retarded that your brain cells die when you read it!

    It is FAKE!

    The recordings were made by a civilian Russian drone. I believe related to the May 9th celebrations. The video is completely civil and open to the public.

    The Ukronazis put a filter on it to make it look like a Ukrainian combat drone.

    Ugghh China took the bait. Xi made a phone call to Zelensky. In the press conference , Zelensky got his "1991 borders" talking point in. 

    Through this whole process , the US will simply make  China look stupid. That is the only reason for this engagement. They will also get China to trip on its words over Taiwan. This is gonna look bad. 

    But China has to learn the hard way.

    Early reports. President Erdogan in critical condition in hospital from a medical emergency.

    CIA finally got him. Whatever. He didn't hold the line on Finland anyway. It remains to be seen if he has any kind of neo Ottoman successor.

    Anyone else  notice that it was a little strange how suddenly Erdogan dropped his opposition to Finland joining Nato ? He probably made a grand bargain with the US. Support me in the next election and I'll let Finland join Nato. 

    How's your grand bargain looking now Erdogan ? Nobody negotiates with the US.
