Russian special military operation in Ukraine #51

T-62M with sun protection.

ERA bricks everywhere. This time on a T-80.

Anyway the chart obfuscates the mammoth difference in GDP between both countries:

The chart has nothing to do with the actual size of the GDP or the actual growth rate.
It only shows how big the GDP of each country was at a given time compared to the start of the SMO - not in real value but percenntage.

Like some pilot project for the future of our countries too.  Right now here in America young men wre refusing to join a military that has lost it's way and is essentially the police force for the "rules based world order" which is another name for the NWO.  Even in our commercials they talk of the navy as "a global force for good". Wtf does this even mean? Since when are WE the policeman of the world?

And now that Ukraine has tragically lost an entire generation and people arent signing up in other countries like mine, they are pushing this wickedness. Disgusting. There are so many reasons women should not be fighting I wont even argue the point. It should be obvious. Our leaders are mad, and they are dragging us down with them into the void.

Partially true, also because mixed military groups with men and women do not usually work good together.

However, especially in the modern west why should men risk their life in a war to defend a society that despise them (even more if they are Christian white males)?

In a society where many women insists for working as much as men and do not want children or delay children until they aren't fertile anymore, why should then men die for them?

I would say that in case of a war and mandatory conscription women between 28 and 40 without children should be also conscripted in this case.

Of course in Ukraine this is different and they are sending women to war because they are scratching the bottom of the barrel and not many healthy men remain available for the meatgrinder.

Ukrainian news report: 1.1 million Ukrainian soldiers are dead or missing. (1,126,652)

A mistake? Or?

Lancelot posted data from the World Bank that inverts the Ukr and Russian growth rates, but I will go with the ones I posted.
Even for the algorithm you describe, the annual GDP growth rate matters. Normalizing both countries at the same size at t=0
would show the cumulative effect of the growth rate going forward. If Ukria had less growth than Russia, then its curve should
stay below the Russian one except at t=0. Besides, such a comparison is stupid since the smaller growth in Ukria applies to
a much smaller economy.

We do not know how many people have managed to run away from the front. Maybe it is much higher than those surrendered.

The number could have been a KIA+WIA figure, but that would make it too low.

We have 600,000 KIA being kicked around. In any case, the KIA has to be over 500,000.

There is news that the Russian Federation easily produces from 700 to 1000 kamikaze drones of the Geranium 1/2 family per month, said Taras Chmut, head of the Turn Around Alive Foundation.

We will disappoint everyone and say that the number of kamikaze UAVs of the Geranium 1/2 family produced by Russia in the current realities is more than 2000 pieces and this is not the limit, since factories for the assembly and production of “toys” continue to open.
At the same time, no more than 50% is supplied for the Ukrainian crisis, the rest remains in reserve - accumulation for the moment “x”, as well as the training of new UAV “operators”.
In fact, we can witness when 500 kamikaze drones start flying across Ukraine at once, and a massive attack of thousands will continue for a week. It will be combined with the participation of a variety of missiles.
Most likely, this will happen at moment “X” (possibly a widespread offensive by the Russian Armed Forces).

Let’s add that in addition to the production of Geranium 1/2, in the Russian Federation dozens more Kamikaze Drones (the same Lancet) are mass-produced, which also reach the front only in some part, the rest is accumulated.

Now imagine when this entire accumulated “air armada” hits targets in Ukraine.
We have been writing about this since 2022, but Bankovaya continued to ignore the incoming alarming news. They didn’t build anything, but only purchased low-grade “flyers”, which are now outliving their useful life in the game.
Now there is no money, but the need has increased.

We are watching...

1,126,652 (!) military personnel of the Ukrainian army died or gone missing

On one of the leading channels in Ukraine 1+1 (the same that released the 'scandalous' interview with Arachamia (https://t.me/theorientalview/3250
) blaming Boris Johnson for the war), a ticker appeared with the words that in 20 months, 1,126,652 (!) military personnel of the Ukrainian army had died or gone missing.

The incident sparked outrage and the channel soon apologized, saying it was a misunderstanding.

In Ukraine, missing means dead, because they do this to underestimate the number of deaths and not provide compensation and wages to families in connection with the death.

The Turks previously reported that the loss of life in Ukraine amounted to more than 1 million people, and this has now been proven.

In the Ukrainian media where there's extremely strict censorship and everything is controlled in detail not only by Ukrainian, but also by Western intelligence, this means only one thing. This is probably because the US and Zaluzhny leaked this information.

Zaluzhny's supporters continued to react to the poor leadership of Zelensky and Yermak, as well as the disasters and pressure caused by politicians' involvement in the war.

The Ukrainian people are also preparing for this process, showing how poorly the current political administration is handling the war and that it is necessary to change the leadership, and on the other hand, it is necessary to make a choice between negotiations or mobilization to the end. - Militarist/Other sources

Abrams hunting season is open.

The first photographs of the Abrams tank somewhere near Kupyansk, this is primarily an incentive (and a very significant one) for our drone operators, ATGM operators and artillerymen. Now each group, each crew will protect its hunting grounds and will not share with a neighbor if suddenly a fat American comes to his land.
The same thing happened with Leopards, everyone wanted to hang the skin of a German cat on their wall, a fat American is a magnificent trophy, besides, now the destruction of armored vehicles is paid for, and the material incentive is important. Although the pleasure of hunting and the trophy are more important.

The number could have been a KIA+WIA figure, but that would make it too low.

The report stated KIA + MIA. Nothing about wounded.

We do not know how many people have managed to run away from the front.

Maybe a few thousand. There are punisher units behind most areas. Bribes? Possible.
But for hundreds of thousands of military people would be to conspicuous, even for Banderaland.
If some soldiers run away to the russian lines, they would show up in the POW statistics of the russian MoD.

reports are coming in Zelensky is to fire Zaluzhny in the next couple of days, if that happens the fireworks will go off big time in Ukraine

Only in Poland there are at least 500 000 military age men from Ukraine capable of bearing arms.


What about the other countries they fled to?

The total number must be substantial.


I doubt that one million Ukrainian troops are dead.

I wonder how Elon Musk feels about them calling it moment X . DOOH!!!!

As in the west, the term casualties is routinely confused with KIA. Some journalist cannot be expected to never make a mistake in this regard.

There is some accounting system that gives the number sent to the front. It is plausible that not all of those soldiers
make it to the front.

Another source of Ukr losses is KIA in the rear of the front all around Ukria. It is possible that the Russian attrition war
is accounting for lots of these losses if the missile and drone attacks are larger in scale than they appear. Also, the
Kiev regime has been clamping down on any information about Russian attacks at the rear. We had flashy coverage
of barrack attacks that may still be happening but are no longer broadcast.

How smart is that!

Estonians are doing the same. How generous.

You hit the Ukro on the head.

Front #Summary for 26 Nov 2023 by 19:21:zap:

In #Kherson Direction, our forces from the west gradually forcing the AFU out of the central part of the #Krynki village. From the right bank the AFU artillery is methodically working on our few units, while the enemy has no opportunity to expand the zone of control. Or stable supply and replenishment is making it as difficult as possible. This night ours hit another AFU group on boats while trying to sneak along the #Konka River to #Krynki.

In #Zaporozhye Direction, episodic localised counter battles with no changes in the frontline. Movement of armoured vehicles is practically paralysed. The activity of artillery has decreased by multiples. Without aerial recon the accuracy is significantly reduced, we do not waste shells. Poor soldiers, mud, cold, water filled trenches and uniforms that don't dry out.

In #Donetsk Direction, our army tries to launch localised attacks near #Novomikhaylovka, #Pervomayskoye and #Maryinka, unfortunately without any significant advancement so far. Our fighters have accomplished another military feat by taking full control of the territory of the #Avdeyevka industrial zone. Ukrainian channels reported that the AFU almost without a fight abandoned positions they had been building since 2014 and withdrew into the city.
The industrial zone on the southern outskirts was the most powerful AFU fortification, which has been one of the key points of confrontation between the AFU and the DPR Militia for nearly a decade. By liberating this territory, our military deprived the enemy of a heavily fortified and perfectly prepared defence line in the south, plus it is also located on a hill. Now, from the heights of the industrial zone, ours can more accurately adjust the work of artillery and exert more powerful and deliberate pressure in the direction of Tsarskaya Okhota and the former air defence base to the west. The capture of the industrial zone is a significant event, our guys did a great job.
Now our forces continue the clearing of ST Vinogradniki Station on the southern flank. The settlement is half encircled. On the northern flank our fighters are entrenched on the outskirts of #Stepovoye. The enemy is still repelling our new attacks at the Coke Plant. The work of our artillery and aviation continues.

In #Bakhmut Direction, near #Kleshcheyevka, our artillery is working very powerfully in conjunction with drone operators. Ours are hitting Ukrainian dugouts. On the ground, our forces have taken new positions, but the enemy still controls the key heights. In other areas around #Bakhmut no changes.

In the #Svatovo Direction, due to rain and thaw, equipment from both sides is hardly used, although the long awaited AFU Abrams tanks have been spotted. In the #Serebryanskoye forest, the AFU tried to conduct a recon battle, but after receiving a serious rebuff from ours, they withdrew. The AFU counterattacks near #Sinkovka were also unsuccessful. At #Torskoye, artillery duels and localised fighting are ongoing without any advances.

Unfortunately, the weather in Crimea is not about to get any better. Or for much of the rest of Ukraine/Western Russia. This will affect the RF and the AFU in their plans.

The hydrometeorological center warned of dangerous weather in the European part of Russia.

According to the scientific director of the Hydrometeorological Center Roman Vilfand, heavy snow, sleet, snow drifts, ice, sleet, and winds of up to 15-20 m/s are predicted in all regions of the Central Federal District. In the Astrakhan and Volgograd regions, heavy snow, blizzard, wind up to 13-18 m/s are expected, in Crimea - very heavy precipitation in the form of rain, sleet and snow, wind up to 35-40 m/s in the mountains, in the Rostov region and Stavropol region - wind gusts up to 24-28 m/s.

In the Perm Territory, Kirov Region and Tatarstan, snow, sleet, rain, freezing rain and sleet are forecast on Monday.

The EM emissions from the ground must be focused in a tight beam to affect orbiting instruments. It is not unreasonable to reach LEO at 300-600 km but
is impressive anyway. Whether these images are genuine or fake is not clear.

Verkhovna Rada deputy Maryana Bezugla for the first time revealed the figures of the mobilization plan in Ukraine. The country's military registration and enlistment offices intend to conscript 20 thousand people into the army every month, reports the Ukrainian publication Strana.ua.

As journalists note, for a more accurate analysis, the ratio of losses is also necessary, but there is no reliable information on them. According to the publication, the announced figures represent an alarming signal regarding the balance of power in the combat zone.

In turn, former deputy head of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Anna Malyar said that the troops have problems with weapons and called on citizens to actively participate in the mobilization. The official expressed the opinion that Ukrainians should stop expecting good news from the front, and the topic of mobilization should be alarming for society.

NOTE: doesn't sound like enough as the Russian MoD daily estimate of Ukrainian casualties generally average over 700 per day on the other hand they need to hurry up with this as lately the Russians are hard pressed to claim 500 per day
