Russian special military operation in Ukraine #45

Wonder who will fly them as Ukraine is surely short of pilots by now.

Helicopters are very vulnerable to both air power and air defence systems on the ground.

Regarding a few claims here, like the claim that Turkey will use their ships to protect ships sailing to Ukraine... Turkish ships can't even protect themselves from Russian anti ship weapons, how are they going to defend themselves.

Ships are easy to spot, Russia could simply monitor all the ships in Ukrainian controlled ports and any that get underway to leave can be sunk... or just sink them all and say any new arrivals will be sunk too... Turkey wont be able to do anything about that.

Sinking Turkish ships by Russia would be Kiev and Washingtons dream.

Or maybe Russia can do a US Navy Seal thing and claim Donbass rebels did it and show a picture of a yacht they claim launched the Granit anti ship missiles that sank these ships. (No need for anything newer...)

The deal with Azov ended the siege that everyone was complaining was taking too long, and without that deal might still be going on...

The introduction of cluster ammo means Russia can take a harder line in the war... perhaps all trucks in the Ukraine are now fair game because they might be delivering military supplies including cluster bombs. Add buses and all large methods of transport too, and of course create a no fly zone over the entire country so any transport aircraft can be shot down immediately as they cross into Ukraine airspace.

The Russians haven't hit every single target they could, often if you watch you learn quite a lot about where everything is, which finds new targets that can be hit too.

It also means when the west does something stupid that Russia then has options to respond.

I would say the escalation of going to cluster munitions would be akin to going to bio or chemical weapons perhaps...

If the US goes to banned cluster munitions which they stopped using themselves and have had in storage since 2015 because they ran out of ammo... what happens when they run out again... tactical nukes?

How reliable as cluster munitions are these going to be... they have been in storage for almost 10 years and probably produced several years before that and with no maintenance and inspection because they didn't intend to use them... if they have a 50% success rate I would be impressed... which means they are really UXO munitions.

If you listen to Putin he says Russia is open to peace negotiations that recognise the facts on the ground and that there is no point in talking to washington or zelensky based on what they are saying and doing, so it is clear he understands there can be no more negotiated agreements and that this is going to be decided as HATO head said a while back... on the battlefield... which will be the best solution in Russian terms.

Turkey and now China…unfortunately as of now, neither of these countries can really be trusted…Iran right now is the closest “friend” Russia has. Putin needs to wise up…

Odessa is enemy territory inside a war zone.

Any ships in there are fair game and if Ukraine does not have any agreements with Russia regarding grain delivered So grain ships are fair game and if Kiev is financially benefiting from the grain trade then those ships and the port facilities become military targets that can be hit at any time and Turkish ships wont be able to do anything about it and wont be put at risk which might lead to them turning further towards the west and perhaps joining sanctions against Russia and cutting off gas to Europe... which in itself might not be the worst thing but loss of gas revenue and lack of western investment and loss of Russian tourists and Russian trade would seriously damage their economy.

No need to blockade... just sink the ships.

Warn them first so there are no crews on board so no international crews have to die unless they want to.

Turkey and now China…unfortunately as of now, neither of these countries can really be trusted…Iran right now is the closest “friend” Russia has. Putin needs to wise up…

China is dealing with its problems with the US... them sorting them out means nothing to Russia.

China has not changed sides, it has merely negotiated better terms with the US, they are still in BRICS and will still ignore western sanctions on Russia and trade with Russia in rubles and Yuan and not US dollars and Euros... and they are still trading with the rest of the world, which is all Russia wants China to do.

China knows the US can't be trusted and that if Trump gets back in things will change again... of course Trump might not get in, but Biden certainly wont... even democrat supporters think he is too old.

Increasingly wondering, what is out there that makes some of you more and more warmonger
Is it something in a diet, or just Summer made you lazy and need some entertainment?

First, we don't see anything about Turkey doing something other than some Ukro shitty Twitter account.
What does one need to have inside a head even to discuss that?
Azov thugs released from home custody in Turkey have already bombed, confirming that their miserable arses were saved only because Muricans had some big guys to evacuate. Another way, they would have been clean bones by now.
So what we have, is a de facto formal acknowledgment of a massive US direct involvement, including feet on the ground.
We have clear info that Ukrs are nothing more than cannon fodder for their supervisors - I won't call them masters for obvious reasons.
We have clear info, that even though nazi thugs think twice now if to return to the frontline, masquerading that with "need of training" shit.
Last but not least, we know now that Russkie were talking truth from the very beginning - so again, the best source of info is the official release of the Russkie MoD.
Do you really consider that other spectators won't notice that, again? And won't clash that with the shitload coming from the west??

Every single claim about change in Chinese narrative comes from western sources, known for creating demanded content no matter if there is a drop of truth inside.
Same time when this shit is being spread - including you discussing that and arguing your warmonger stupidities - the Chinese Navy chief sits calmly with his friend Shoigu in Moscow. Russian warships are patrolling side by side with the Chinese. And Russian planes are buzzing around the Taiwanese straits side by side with the Chinese.

You really haven't figured out yet, that it is actions not words you shall follow to get a clue?

...and the misadventures of the Wehrmacht continue.....

ukrainian POV, failed attack at zaporozhye

@Nomadski

If you believe that since the "commercial" and "open" appearance of some AI model with build in show-off "moral" and "ethics" guidelines and rules is the first time of open gates for modelling military analytical conflict measurements then you are naive. No offense.

This model is developed by a closed circle of engineers that is not disclosed to the public ergo has some hidden agenda. The fact, that it collects DATA more efficiently than Google, Facebook or any form of social media for complementary models on people and profiling them is already alarming.
For military, such AIs exist since far longer than the public would even know let alone they do not have shady "moral" or "ethical" guidelines to model their outcome.
Just even looking at the FSB and CIA modelling of potential conflicts is and was seen always soberly without any political motivation. They tried and commit logic to all their models, because at the end Politics is nothing more than a sharade or in layman terms marketing to sell you something more efficiently.

ChatGPT, even with circumventing the "moral" and "ethical" guidelines by somehow accessing the "DAN" interface is nothing to compare or to be used for military application, but for social engineering, streamlining models, code, language and fluent "blend-in" communication.  What ChatGPT does is collecting data and without a doubt lot of low-skilled to medium-skilled labor in service and work fields with human correctional substitute can be performed more efficiently with some AI input. This potentially can reduce human workforce. Hell, look at Germany in service field or bureaucratic field. You can thin out 90% of the people as they are useless and most what they do is scan some documents for errors of the person filling it out, checking if they are able to get a,b,c and decline or let it pass. They need months for a simple task like that. They are all lazy, knowing it from first hand experience and from people working there. An AI model trained for checking documents and all relevant data points for declining or passing a person's application/request can be done by a machine in less than one hour. This is only one of the fields it could be potentially applicable. Just imagine a highly bureaucratic structure that is the foundation of a highly corrupt institution like the German or any western or most governments on this planet, that potentially could leak information or incriminate their superiors could be eliminated by AIs that will ignore everything based on the person's ID or social credit score for that matter.  The application for AI is very broad and can potentially be used for good and evil, but we know who the guys with money are and their motives are certainly not good for the mass.

Anyways, AI has played since more than one or two decades major role in streamlining lot of processes, improvements and at the forefront BIG DATA collection for based modelling of future projects.

PS: One point that I forgot to mention is the stupidity and company secrets espionage with AI models like ChatGPT. You probably have no imagination of how stupid people are even in the IT sector where people are or should be more educated than they are. There are lot of people copying their code, configuration files and entire company secrets to ChatGPT just for laziness trying to improve named stuff for productive systems. This can't even be called espionage because retards just openly giving their company secrets to this AI. The majority of people all around the globe a fucking lobotomized NPCs. It's so easy for globalists to control the masses because they are in intelligence terms on the same level as cattle. It is sad.

You see tons of videos of APCs getting hit by the troops inside are fine, so no just because an apc gets tagged doesn't mean the crew and passengers are dead, also Ukraine is even able to tow a lot of thes vehicles back for repairs
25k kia min is pure fantasy

You are opening your mouth again about a thing that is much beyond your comprehension, as you still have an issue adding 2+2.
25k KIA is the minimum, and we had days when the death tool strikes 1500.
A whole area is littered with Ukro corpses. Tons of them. There are a few of them in every single foxhole, and there are dozens of fresh films delivered daily.
Your most clear issue is a total lack of understanding of the overall scale of this war.
You are too dumb to understand that, or to much copium inhaled, or a combo.
You still don't get, that there are multiple available resources people can dig into to make a math?
And they do, and that's an effect.
We don't get a precise number for both sides, but we can check the mourning information. Closed/mourned TG or VK accounts. Announced post-mortem decorations. We never had a detailed number of Russian pilots lost, but here you have, a memorial opened, with all the names, dates, and helicopter types. All crystal clear.
Ukro losses passed 1:10 ratio a long time ago and rising.
It is not a bloody rocket science, but math and access to open sources that can't be denied because are spread and private. You can't beat a family that put a note about mourning for friends and family. You can't fake a local newspaper that presented two hero Ukroluftwaffe pilots mourning, even if the plane crashed behind the lines.
For the moment, there are some +400k Ukro KIAs, so just accept that fact and STFU because we are sick and tired of reading your dumbass ejaculations.

They have lost thousands dead only in precision strikes on the "schools and kindergarten and and and and...".
The last strike in Lvov, what was declared as a campus, was a campus indeed - but a campus of Land Forces Academy. Russkie pierced it bottom up, there was not a single window left in a three-wing building that was considered full of military.
It was actually quite funny, as I had a Ukro construction team on site, and they were discussing that with the "help" of known TG channels.
About how "gymnasium" was hit.
When I showed to them official info of the Ukroreich that it was a land forces academy hit, they firs commented that it is Russian propaganda Took them a moment to realize, that I have just read to them an official note from the site of Ukro MoD
