This is OT but where is Russia's own Thousand fleet of satellites and its counterpart to the Falcon 9, if these systems can play such a decisive role in warfare, Russia should have developed similar systems to keep a high level of warfighting capabilities against adversaries like NATzO
The west has such extensive coverage because they dominate the world and can use their riches, which they have bled from the rest of the world to pay for all these satellites which allow them to see and to an extent control what is happening so in effect they pay for themselves.
For Russia to build a similar array they would essentially have to become a white European colonial slave master to justify and pay for the upkeep of this spy network... which is optimised for keeping the poor poorer, and the rich richer.
Blah, blah, blah, digital wunderwaffe and other voodoo.
A new military command and control network Russia can learnt to exploit, fool and interfere with.
Finding emitters and nodes on this network and taking them out will be a high priority for the Russian military moving forward.
“I welcome that the alliance countries have reduced the level of restrictions or canceled them regarding strikes on military targets on Russian territory... I will not go into various aspects and details, I will only say that Ukraine has the right to defend itself, and we have the right to help it,” - said the NATO Secretary General. At the same time, he once again emphasized that the alliance’s actions do not mean participation in a military conflict.
It is funny that he recognises that HATO and Kiev have rights but he ignores that Russia has rights too... Sometimes rights overlap, sometimes they cancel each other out. The irony is that any attack by Kiev that kills civilians in Russia is Kievs right to defence but Russians hitting military targets in Ukraine is aggression and escalation, and they wont even consider that Russia might hit Kievs F-16s based in HATO countries as legitimate targets.
which one is more retarded ? Suggesting war by direct attack on US manufacturing and launching site or just build a large jamming station to scramble the Starlink operation in the field.
The US is fighting for 12 trillion dollars in resources so perhaps hits on US mainland positions by Ukrainian irregular terrorists might be a more interesting escalation than jammers.
Of course rather than jamming, often hacking the system and introducing false targets and of course using the network to locate all the active nodes of the network for direct targeting via artillery is probably a smarter solution.
Too many red lines being passed, and being used against Russia. This would never have happened in Cold War 1.
But that is the point... they haven't actually flown attack missions using F-16 fighters to attack targets in the Ukraine or Russia so that red line has not been crossed yet, but you still complain that they wont react even if they do cross that red line.
How about waiting till the Russians confirm that F-16s are being used before complaining about no response from Russia?
If they get the chance their first response will almost certainly be to shoot the planes down, and their second response will be to carefully look and find out which airfields it operates from and if there are other aircraft there... and if there are they will likely try and hit those on the ground... whether in Ukraine or Romania or Poland.
Putin fucked up (much as I love him, but he admits he made a mistake himself).
I would say Russian intel fucked up if they didn't work out what HATO was doing and talking about in private. Unless Putin got advice that Germany and France were lying pieces of shit that were setting him up to stab him in the back, and chose to ignore the warnings.
Maybe this was all 20D chess... he knew they were lying and pretended to believe them to achieve what he is achieving now... the complete severance of Russia from the west and the economic destruction of the EU... and the creation of an alternative to the west in the form of BRICS... something that could not be achieved by Russia and Putin alone.
He needs to smell the coffee and scare these vermin in DC and Brussels. And get them to stop their Nazi and similar terrorist collaboration. NOW.
But don't you see he has achieved better than that... by separating Russia from the western alliance it doesn't matter who the west chooses to support or fund because they are no longer relevant to Russia or the rest of the world... isolation was a punishment the west loved to inflict on countries that didn't do as the west commanded... well now they are being sent into isolation and their economies are going to suffer...
If you don’t want to hit NATO bases, use the Israeli/Mossad method
Level the embassy with NATO officers in it , and let them respond
The US embassy in Kiev has thousands of workers... and they are not helping locals fill out applications for green cards...
But Israel didn’t stop there, they sabotaged the Iranian presidents plane and eliminated a decision maker
Before you use Israel as a basis for future behaviour Israel would not exist right now without endless funding from the US and EU and their blind support in the UN.
Where would the people responsible for triggering WW3 run to? Australia? New Zealand? Good luck hiding from Russian subs or the pissed off natives there.
Good luck to any rich and powerful turning up here during WWIII with your US dollars. We don't accept foreign currency... did you bring any gold? When the world ends there is nothing like getting a fresh supply of meat...
Transponders off?
Razz Razz Razz Razz Razz
This moron thinks Russia cant locate Global Hawks unless the drones transponders are live? LOL. These seppo cnts get more stupid by the second. Thats maybe why they losing this conflict on every useful metric.
Actually flying drones with transponders is unsafe practice and a rational response would be to shoot it down as a threat to civilian and military air traffic...
Does Russia only want those regions that it has officially introduced into the Russian Federation? If Ukraine signs a worthless piece of paper stating that it will not join NATO, that will be enough for it.
I am guessing after Minsk 1 and 2 and the talks in Istanbul that the wording of the new agreement will be crystal clear and include some very clear results of breaking aspects of the agreement.
They have also openly stated that neutral zones will be created based on the range of the weapons they have been provided with where buffer zones in which no military equipment can be located, domestic or foreign... I am sure they will have worked out all the details to prevent the west taking advantage... but kiev does not want to surrender so Russia will keep pushing them back and keep killing their men.
