Russia is producing artillery shells around three times faster than Ukraine's Western allies and for about a quarter of the cost
It also does not take into account that not all western artillery shells make it to the front line to be fired from a gun. Sometimes they get destroyed in rail cars and ports when they arrive or while they are being transported to the front and stored in various warehouses in different places waiting for suitable transport to get them to the front line.
Internet experts ask questions and see a need for improvements. Errors must be identified and corrected. Putin says exactly the words, and the middle and deputy decision-makers in the chain of command say exactly the words.
First if all most of these internet experts you talk about are not experts and just repeat Orc propaganda verbatim hoping a real internet expert will correct them and make them feel better about the loss.
When the Ukraine attacks an airfield and their massive victory is hitting a S-400 radar vehicle, and in response Russia attacks a Ukrainian airfield with an enormous number of weapons and drones and they all hit important targets on that airfield you have to say there is nothing fundamentally wrong on the Russian side.
Of course what happened can be examined and lessons can be learned but when poofters jump up and down like 10 year olds demanding someone get fired... well such noise is clearly worth being ignored.
Ballistic targets follow steep trajectories... the effective range of a SAM against ballistic threats is almost never more than about 30km just because of the trajectory of the incoming threat, and normally most SAMs don't waste their time looking up for incoming threats because they are rather rare and would mean it would be vulnerable to the vast majority of other threats that don't fly such flight profiles.
When an enemy mounts a concerted attack using weapons they do not have a lot of and they use them up and get a radar vehicle and maybe a few TELs then that is actually a victory for the defender... it is like the west firing 200 TOW missiles at a T-14 and breaking a track.
It is important to eliminate the errors. If this doesn't happen, there will be consequences. Mistakes that you can't afford to make often.
HATO are using state of the art sensors and equipment and planning to find weak spots and gaps in defences... the fact that they find something once every month or two and never do very serious damage suggests HATO are fucking useless and Russia is in a very good position moving forward.
Russia is a giant holding Ukraine by the throat with its feet off the ground, and HATO is saying kick him in the knee... and every time his flailing foot makes contact with the giants knee the giant squeezes tighter and HATO slips a dollar in the Ukraines pocket.
The net effect is Ukraine gets slightly heavier but there is no change to the outcome...
2. S-400, no TOR. No, TOR probably wouldn't have prevented the splinterhead attack. But the drone that illuminated the target, which also took the video, was able to take pictures and illuminate the target at its leisure.
What are you talking about illuminating target... ATACMS with a cluster warhead does not use SALH guidance.
If you don't want a forum to be used to exchange opinions, you are just as monkeys, fascist monkeys as those in the West, Ukraine & Co. Then there is no need for the forum.
If you think idiots repeating western propaganda improves the website then you really don't understand what I am about or what this website is for.
Both Targets were destroyed because the simplest homework was not done.
You have heard the western story about what happened and you are certain it is all true.
Understand that I don't give a **** what Rooters or Bellingcat or other western propaganda outlets say, I would rather wait a couple of days and hear what the Russians have to say about it.
The fact that you think all they have to do is their homework and all HATO weapons will be rendered useless and Russia will stop taking any loses at all suggests you have a video game understanding of war.
War is about tactics and no matter what precautions you take the enemy will probe your defences and find gaps and attack those gaps.
Most of the time it has been civilian targets because they are not as well defended, so or course people like you will demand they shift their defence to protect all the civilians... well guess what... when you take air defence systems protecting your military and use them to defend civilians then your military is not so well defended... and attacks that might have been stopped before might leak through a few warheads... which is what we are talking about... a few leakers.
Winning and learning to means avoiding mistakes, protecting systems, and changing positions.
Changing positions leaves gaps in your air defence that HATO can exploit to hit targets instead of air defence units... they would rather hit targets because Russia has more air defence units than the entire west has missiles.
Belbeg exactly, you don't park it in the middle of the runway out of laziness but in a camouflaged position. This is not a kindergarten in Siberia, but a front. Naming mistakes doesn't mean being a NATO troll. It means protecting lives and preserving equipment.
Would not take anything said about the situation seriously till we hear the Russian side.
Losing equipment is part of war... new stuff can be made easily enough...
Go to the airfield and tell them they are lazy... just dare you... and explain how your tax dollars are murdering their people and you don't do anything except whine on the internet about it like it is going to fix itself.
Western democracy is a joke because nobody objects when your governments prove to be evil.
No independent media to keep them in check... they just do as they please.
Finally learn it!
If only they were as smart as you and knew how to fight a war they would not be in such a terrible situation that they appear to be in now... they are clearly morons...
Not in the real world.
Fantasy GDP numbers based on money printing and debt don´t count.
Exactly... western GDPs are skewed by financial components, rather than production and industry contributions that dominate Russian GDP...
For years we heared how horrible russias production efficiency was and how much better manufacturing was in the west, especially Germany. My, how the tides have turned. In the end, turns out Russia is very efficient at making weapons and various other goods. So much to the point it has outdone the west by various magnitudes.
I love the claims of productivity advantages... but you can increase productivity easily by firing half your workforce and make the remaining workers do the jobs of the fired people as well as their own... productivity is doubled... quality goes down and burnouts and stress become issues... but productivity is increased...
Can Russia win? True, because de West cannot focus as much procuctionpower in one direction and Russia has China behind their back too.
Can the West win... they could have won 35 years ago... all they had to do was stop being a white colonial predatory power and treat Russia and China with some respect as equals, but it can't because it is evil. There is no chance of a win for the west... it is just a question of how many men the Ukraine has left before their military collapses.
Mikhail Khodorkovsky gave a recent interview...
See... it really is all about good vs evil... and Putin carries a cross and garlic and some wooden stakes...
West makes 50mln cars yr ? mostly automated assembly lines and Russia 1,4 mln?
And imposing tarrifs on China to stop them from destroying sales in their own markets for cars because Chinese cars are better and cheaper by a significant margin.
Most of those western cars use components made in China too like batteries and electric motors etc.
Boeing + Airbus 2023 500+ and 700+ civilian aircraft. Russia is planning to make 1000+ civilian aircraft till 2030. Still claiming Russia can do more cars and air liners?
Irrelevant in the context of this conflict. Cars and airliners don't make any difference at all... artillery shells kill soldiers and killing soldiers is why Russia is dominating.
If we are talking about not manufacturing capabilities but military output at the moment, then yes, Russia is ahead. Western capabilities regarding industrial potential are another matter.
Industrial potential is meaningless... Russia is making the weapons and ammo it needs... it is meeting demand on both battlefields (Syria and Ukraine) and is probably refilling stocks and storage sites with new ammo to replace the old ammo and material being consumed in these conflicts.
Add to that, German industry is closing so good luck with the numbers. US would be really only true opposition to production soon.
Even when German industry has moved to the US they have bases around the world that all require ammo and weapons whose stores have been stripped that need to be replaced let alone weapons and ammo for a potential war which as has been clearly shown was massively under rated... they seem to think they would fight for a couple of weeks and that is all they needed, so a three year war with Russia on top of 20 years of low rate fighting in Afghanistan has blown their reserves... but they still want to fight China...
Abundant Natural Resources
One of the reasons the west can't just ramp up production like Russia did is they lack a lot of the essential resources needed to make weapons and ammo... and there is no quick and easy way for them to source such material on the current international markets...
