I wonder how many fighter pilots Ukraine has that can fly those jets? What type of jets are they?


Seems to me the Russian army was trying to avoid civilian casualties. They may change that.

This was brought up in the thread for the original tweet. Someone else was asking where they will fly these jets from and who is going to do it since you need training for different types of jets from their own.

I’ve seen a lot of reports pictures (maybe fake) of indiscriminate targeting of apartments, hospitals, and schools. I don’t think they’re making any distinction.

An example of a relatively recent light study on The Russian army, they’ve been fighting aside the separatists for a while. (Them openly fighting enmasse is the only change.) this is why we’re seeing Russia fight the way they’re fighting.

They aren’t anything like the theatric hype videos they’ve released of “training”.

Some of the old strengths they had in the past were due to them drawing from their former satellite states when they were the USSR.

Ukraine was one of the their stronger states. It’s also been refining itself by defending its eastern border since 2014.

look at all these cacs all across the world going to ukraine to take up arms and fight against russia and governments are like sure

if you're black azz goes to help an african nation you'd prob be branded a terrorist

You wouldn’t unless you’re joining Boko haram/ Al shabab or some shyt. Affected nations welcome volunteers. I’m more alarmed at the unwillingness to go, honestly.

How is BP going to dump their stake when Russia refused to sell?

This is going to make things interesting.
