Russia's Invasion of Ukraine (Official Thread)

[Cuban Pete]

Lord Putin probably sent them directly to the front line after they posted that vid...what a miserable end to a life

Edit thats exactly what happened:

Sending ethnic Russians from Serbia to be literal cannon fodder Can only imagine how Russian govt. feel about actually dark skin people.....Meanwhile Comrade Coli Brigade keeps posting about white supremacist Nazi Ukrainians who at this point are just defending their country...not to absolve any elements of Nazism in Ukraine but their not the one's trying to start ww3 at the moment thru 19/20th century style imperalism


.People love talking about how p*ssy Americans are but AIN'T NO WAY lol how Russia hasn't had a revolution over this bs I've lost complete respect for them as a nation the little I had to begin with

They took away all their guns, every country thats been Communist had there guns taken away from them along with the freedom to peacefully assemble and protest. When your politicians dont have that subconcious fear about getting clapped in the open by anybody from an extremist on the other side, to an extremist in their party, their own security or just some lunatic, they start passing those kind of laws domestically. Russias about 3 or 4 months from a full blown war economy and martial law and nobody can realistically do a damn thing about it

Russia probably doesn’t have that much good equipment in the far east

The US military industrial complex is silly stacked. 10 years from now the US will have the manufacturing capabilities to to once again be the free world's arms supplier. Not saying the US was "sleeping giant" status prior to the invasion of Ukraine but the US arms manufacturers weren't really grinding. Putin changed that.

The longer this war goes on the better the logistics for feeding the Ukrainian war effort will get. And when this war is over, Ukraine and Poland are gonna be

status.

Honestly, I can see Poland jumping in if Belarus does with or without NATO just because they feel a certain kinda way.

Having failed to break through Ukrainian lines there for almost a year, the Russians recently revised their tactics, turning to small assault groups trying to rip holes through Ukrainian defenses that they can try to exploit, according to a Russian manual captured by the Ukrainians.
The manual details how assault platoons of 12 to 15 members can be divided into tactical groups of as few as three people supported by additional firepower to infiltrate a Ukrainian trench.

Ukrainian soldiers have taken to calling these groups “meat,” because of the high rate at which they are killed.

Ukrainian fighters who have witnessed the attacks up close say the Russians often send a first wave of infantry to storm a trench, knowing they are likely to be killed. Russian spotters take note of Ukrainian firing positions and unleash a barrage of mortar and artillery fire aimed at those locations. Then a second wave of Russian infantry race in, trying to infiltrate the trench.

The Ukrainian military calls it the zero position, where Russian soldiers are close enough to see, and where an old war tactic takes a horrific toll.

3 men sent to storm a trench being refered to as a tatical group while only being used as markers for their own military to gague the correct distance to fire artillery good Lord

Russia is showing off advanced military tech around the world while its troops in Ukraine struggle with obsolete Soviet-era weapons

Russian defense companies are showing off advanced technology at international arms fairs but little of it is making its way to Ukraine.

As a scam, it makes sense. Sell high to these random countries/counflicts where the tech won’t actually be put to the test.

Sending it to Russian troops means you would have to explain away it failures or see the limits of it success.

By that logic it's never really battle tested....oh but wait, it has been. I'll get around to posting examples at some point.

Russia shot down several of its own planes in the early days of invading Ukraine, leaving it with few willing pilots, report says

The friendly-fire incidents "may not have been double digits, but it's more than one or two," a former senior US official told the Financial Times.

If they are going to be shooting down their own fighter jets then I think we can save money by not sending Ukraine the stingers

That shot down one of their su-30s this past week. Ukraine doesn’t even operate them and they’re solid planes not like su-25/24. Straight jokes
