This is an interesting video. It shows footage from recon drones that show attack drones going in to blow up tanks and APC's. Amazing how small a shaped charge can be to ignite the ammo stored in an "armored" vehicle.

Looks like those FPV drones run about 300-400 Euros .. and are now getting more "AI" like the CCTV / security cameras we have with person / vehicle detection ..

Lots of people making Lots of money killing lots of people.
 
Russia .. often we attempt to judge Russia based on our own experiences and logic .. this is a flawed way to think

 
Are we risking nuclear war by supporting Ukraine?

I will go back to and stand by my original statement: The only GOOD COMMIE IS A DEAD COMMIE.

I can't believe that Putin, POS, has lowered himself and the Russian people to this BS. Not even going to bring up Rocket Man in N. Korea...just an idiot. He will get his one day (and I believe sooner then later) just like all the rest of the communist/fascist monsters.
I do feel for the individual soldier. Just doing what they are told....and look how betrayed they are. Amazing. Love the propaganda photo.

ISW .. I find is a good source on various topics from Ukraine to Iran / Israel


Putin's Poison Pill for Peace Talks
Institute for the Study of War

In a new episode of the ISW Briefing Room, Russia Team Lead George Barros reviews Russia’s demands for negotiations with Ukraine.

Despite significant military setbacks and mounting economic challenges, Putin’s demands have not changed. Putin is not interested only in territory. He is interested in the destruction of Ukraine as a sovereign state.

The United States should reject any peace agreement that undermines the key principle that Ukraine is a sovereign state. The moment we accept that Putin is only demanding negotiation on territorial boundaries and lose sight of the implications on Ukrainian sovereignty, we lose.

Trump's behavior raises questions about the commitment of the U.S. to support its allies in case of war. In this video, I discuss how it weakens NATO's military deterrence and increases the risk of war in Europe. I also touch on how the future security order in Europe will be determined by the outcome of the war in Ukraine.

0:00 Intro
1:00 A new world order
2:04 Security void
3:17 Deterrence is psychological
4:40 Europe out of touch
6:11 War between Russia and NATO
8:43 Failure of escalation management
9:14 Need for urgency
10:11 Focus on Ukraine

Russian tactics, Putin appears to believe this war will last a long time based on the tactics they are using to slowly envelope territory

 
Much of this video seems to be pro-Ukraine propaganda, but the battlefield tactics are amazing. I don't know how a widespread offensive war would ever be successfully fought today...
