How about go f yourself US.
Pathetic.
Lets say you have 20 Taurus. You hit 20 planes. Russia still has 80 atleast. Thst means it has very limited strategic effect. If you on the other hand hit a command post or barracks for pilots... That is worth more the planes.
You are clearly missing the point of what you use a resources, such as the Taurus, for. There are more HVT:s to strike then an airplane. The amount of Taurus that Ukraine would likely recieve would be quite few in numbers on top of that. Taurus is a "bunkerbuster", small tip for you.
Airplane*
You dont use 1 Taurus to take out 1 plan. Well, you can but not optimal given the price tag and the relative few numbers of Taurus there is.
You do realise what this bunker does, right?
The Russian Air Force: guilty of launching missiles at civilians. The SBU: guilty of parking charming little wooden homes… with a surprise eviction notice.
Samtliga är anfall från containrar som transporterats med lastbil. Det skulle varit ytterligare ett anfall mot ett flygfältet men den containern började brinna innan det kunde genomföras.
I unfortunately think that hoping for Russia is grasping for straws... Do they have issues but collapsing is wishful thinking.
Well, we care. The damage has to be equal or more to the US for it to be worth it.
Yes, that is correct. However there is plenty of evidence that shows they still produce a fair amount of these systems. Not the same amount they are loosing but still. Point is: Using decoys does not equate to that you lack equipment. Just look at Britain during WW2 in Egypt.
You really think they would form a company thst would do EXACTLY what the russians do? Just because they use motorcycles does not mean failure. It is how you use it as part of a bigger operation.
The tactic is not the same as the russians. Using motorcycles can be quite effective if done correctly and as part of a larger operation.
Dummies is also a response to losses in the manner that they want to avoid more. Dummies generally is not a "replacement" but rather target focus distraction. Dummies dont really tell you much about lacking resources. It can be an indication.
They still produce a lot and their airforce is still strong. But at the rate that has been they cant replace everything but somewhat they still can.
Probably this is one of the main reasons along with S300-400 also thinning out. Also the guidance systems on guided bombs have recently been upgraded since the russians interfered with it before.
It is not just about that. Something has changed that allows Ukraine to deliver the payload closer to the frontline.
🤣
People have been saying that since early 2023. Yet, here we are more then 2 years later. Even if it collapses they can still keep up the war for a while. The russian people is weak and wont rebel.
There are different designs on this matter but all are quite similar. The US has one similar. You can easily look it up by investing your time to google and read. Btw, these type of design ideas movies rarely depict a final product or procedure mechanism. It is mainly for concept demonstration.
What are referring to?
The jet exhaust is placed on top of the "mothership" (in the video) so I dont get your reference to flying out behind it. This is by the way in no means a revolutionary design and is actually already in testing by other countries...
Less popular? Try hated across most developed countries that considered the US friends before.
I love when Ukraine imposes its own sanctions.
Without aid you would not have much to defend with and would be quite worse off then you are. Tauting supporters is bad for Ukraine. I agree that much more should have been done earlier but understand that there are problems with sending everything and leaving our front to Russia barren.
If you cant understand that there is more to the world and that things are complex then I am sorry. Would you rather the structure to support Ukraine collapse so you wont get much support at all? Cause that is what happens when you act like you do.
That is not fair. You should blame Scholz. Pistorius actually unlocked things for Ukraine. You are being a bit too emotional and not rational.
I dont think you have a solid understanding on strategic operation and tactical gains. For clarity I want Ukraine to get the support they need but some help had its place but now it might not be. Pistorius is right that there are things now that are of more value since circumstances have changed.
Taurus is one of the last warheads the West have that Russia have little operational intel on. If you send it and use in strikes Russia will have a lot of information for EW-counter measure. It is all about strategic risk management. Not about being emotionally driven. Build more SCALPS instead.
Russia is building up a military reserve that is not commited to Ukraine. No matter what people think they will soon have the capability to cause problems in other regions. People need to wake up.
Just to be clear: I don't disagree with you in principal. But there is a thing called "being prepared for the worst". Baltic states very much so have reasons to be worried. No matter what you think about Russias capabilities.
The problem is Russia can still attack here as a last ditch effort. We can't be unprepared if that happens.
That is unfortunately not the reality. The production on some vital equipment and foremost missiles for both ground and air is manufactured more or less solely in the US. Without those capabilities a "victory" (return of all territories) wont happen. Europe cant replace that for atleast 5 years.
Det positiva är att vid vissa delar av fronten så har man lyckats göra mindre lokala "motoffensiver" och straffat ryssen. Dessa är väldigt små. Tyvärr slutar det ofta i att man "tappar mark" oavsett då den inte går att försvara längre.
Nja. Det är ganska allmänt känt hur det ser ut vid flera delar av fronten. Vissa förband som inte avlösts på år. Ukraina är otroligt duktiga med de resurser man har men man måste också prata om deras problem och tillkortakommanden. För det finns det gott om, dock arbetar de på lösningar.
Tillägg: Hade varit glädjande med en lyckad motoffensiv men är försiktig med förhoppningarna efter sommaren 2023.
Det saknas fortfarande materiell, av det som redan utlovats men inte levererats, för att bedriva en lyckad motoffensiv. Kanske en av mindre skala kan gå men tveksamt. Ser inte hur det är möjligt när den ukrainska armén fortfarande har problem med rotationer. Om än att det blivit marginellt bättre.
I dont understand how you americans could be this dumb to think it would get better. Sorry, but you are just plain stupid. We over here in Europe could see it all along for what was about to come.
This will be a bloodbath at opening in NY
China just need to wait for the US to crumble on itself then invade Taiwan. And US is on track for that with their stupid moves.
I mean, if the US wants us to increase trade with China then sure. Smart strategic move there US.
Well, we will see. I am pretty sure there will be a response. Can't say much more.
Oh, dont worry. We will retaliate soon. US is not the powerhouse you used to be.
Or when the EU strikes back with their response. Likely to come soon enough.
What makes you so sure it will be 4 years? I doubt there will be a new fair election in 4 years time.
Vet bara att NASAMS har testats med andra missiler än amerikanska med goda resultat och att det pågår febrila arbeten.
Kongsberg jobbar ganska intensivt för tillfället kan man konstatera.
Inte nödvändigtvis så länge till.
NASAMS for the win.
Jag tror SAMP-T eller framförallt NASAMS ligger högst upp numera. NASAMS fungerar nu även mot ballistiska robotar och har bättre räckvidd mot dessa än PATRIOT.
Too late now. Protest wont do anything. Real firm action is the only thing that will remove Trump. You had your last elections if this does not happen.
The same Orban that controls everything. Yes, "legit poll" my butt.
Look at you, you cant even keep close to an ounce of civil conversation even though we both (presumably) support the same cause.
You have serious issues. You should consider some help. If you cared to even try to read what you wrote and my answer in an objective way this would have been an non-issue. I'm a stalwart defender of the Ukranian unlike you with that atttitude. You are onf of the reasons for polarisation.
And if you calm down and really read what you wrote, and what I answered you, you hopefully should realise you should say sorry for your uncalled name calling and language.
You are showing the exact problem why a lot of pro-Ukraine people turned away from NAFO.
JESUS, you need to calm down and put a lid on your emotions before you type. I hate Trump with every bone in my body but what I hate more is people saying that we ever could/can depend on the US. You need to be honest here. Trump is by far the worst but Biden was also BAD for Ukraine.
I think you are wrong. Biden was not rally doing any favors for US the last years when you look at Ukraine. Who wants an ally that ties your hand behind your back when you want to fight back.
Next election, good joke!
Problem for the US is the damage is already done. Europe have seen your ugly face. We will never trust you again and you are about to lose a lot of income.
When you called, we picked up without hesitation. Our brothers and sisters died for your country. The USA are ungrateful and deeply immoral in its nature.
Unfortunately your words means little.
But it is the man who is in charge so it is the US. Stop the BS excuses.
Fudge the US. May you burn like you deserve.
That guy has been posting videos for a long time with a VERY low hit rate in claims. So not really a source I would trust or use as a validation for probability.
I seriously doubt that there is a chance the regime in Russia will be overturned. If that was the case Budanov and the Ukrainian leadership would seek to drag this out and wait for it to happen. No signs of that occuring. It wont happen. As I said, lots of claims the past 3 years. 0 coming true.
A "peace deal" might sound good. Stability, no more war... But what if that deal is just a trap? What if forcing Ukraine into a ceasefire on bad terms doesn’t stop the war, but guarantees an even worse one? My article for @tochnyi.info explores some of the reasons why: tochnyi.info/2025/02/a-fo...
It sure sounds like that, doesn't it?
The guy above was referring what we expected non-democrats to do. Not what could happen from republicans. Big difference.
Nobody said ANYTHING about shooting people. Now you are being childish.
They are complecent and have as much responsibility as anyone else.
You know that if this happened here that stuff would not fly. They all bare responsibility.
The point is valid none the less. Stop defending idiotic behavior and complancency.
Nah, the fact that can still happen despite what you are saying is more then enough proof we cant trust you.
I regret that we helped you in Iraq and Afg. when you asked, when you do this to "friends".
We will never trust the US again. /From a European.
No business with the US. You can not be trusted.
Does the US really think we believe a word they say? Like really?
People have been claiming Russia will collapse since the full scale war broke out. Yet, they are still here without any real sign of breaking. Struggling in some regards, yes, but definetely not breaking.
If everyone else in the US is not protesting more violently you are allowing this madness. So yes, the US.
Do f off. The US wants isolation. Crystal clear.
That is not the entire story, but a part of it.
AT4 is a single use weapon and does not come with any particular "equipment".
It is Carl Gustaf more likely then AT4 when the phrasing is "with equipment".
They are not.
Until the day we send these birds I will never be happy with our donations. Unleash the Gripens.
From Sweden with love.
If you are in doubt (how anypne could be is beyond me) of Musks "gesture", use picture for clarification. 100% n@zi salute, twice.
KNDS de (formerly KMW) has been awarded a contract by Sweden worth 22 billion SEK (~1,91 billion €) for the procurement of 44 Leopard 2A8 Main Battle Tanks and the modernisation of 66 of Sweden's older Leopard 2. 1/2 www.svt.se/nyheter/inri...
Morning #Ukraine. Keep the faith brothers and sisters.
I believe in Ukraine and its people. You are one of the bravest in the world. Your fight is our fight. To victory and beyond 🇺🇦💪🇸🇪
Слава Україні!
You clearly missed the entire point and by doing so enhanced my arguement even more. Thanks! 😂
A.k.a Make America Poor Again
I dont think you know how the world works outside your bubble. But I would not expect much of a people that cant mark Europe on a map. On of your biggest trade and military allies. Oh by the way, enjoy those tariffs 😂
Just cause he is president does not negclect the crimes he commited and was CONVICTED of. I am not even american but I feel sad for you low gifted people 😂
You do know how the US election system works? Trump was not elected by all of the US people. Only by those in states with most electorial seats. Most broken system in the world.
I think he means the candidate in Romania that is a Russia simp.
Russian. Big difference.
