Get that system online ASAP,and the bridge over the Kerch strait and the Russian navy ships in Black Sea ans Sea of Azov that are dumping Kalibre cruise missiles into Ukraine are going to get some.

Fk that Kadyrov MF,he is worse than Putin and is what some Russian analysts say when discussing regime change that Russia is notorious for coups that result in worse leadership concerning Western interests,damn I can't think of a worse scenario than that guy running all of Russia.

Hey, they do use FPV racing quads in war, looks like some guy brought his racing quad along for some recon work. Hard to shoot a racing quad down, flies right over the trenches and shows, who and what is there. Here is a Russian trench line, if you were going to attack it at night say or mortar the trench, it would be nice to know where everything and body is. This is in the east of Ukraine before the big war and was shot last year in the break away provinces, they've been at low level war for awhile.

Would never happen, they ain't Russian, he's Chechen and has no political or power base. He runs a small republic and has a small army of mercenaries. Most Russians are bigoted against Chechens, I believe they are Muslims, or ethnically, this bunch isn't religious.

Putin has kids and one might be in Paris, two daughters. That increases the odds that he won't use nukes, which is why I posted this. Vlad has an investment in the future and as he ages, his kids should grow in importance to him, I don't think he's a true sociopath with brain parts missing like Trump. Don't directly threaten him or Russia and he shouldn't do anything too stupid, drive him out of Ukraine and let him lick his wounds.
Fear and bigotry equals power, is a good quote from the video and as true in Russia as in America.

It's in the Donbas region with the Russian backed separatists last year, the Ukrainians were doing a lot of innovating back then and have been fighting a low level war against Russians and their proxies.

'Putin will be gone soon': Exiled Russian dissident Ilya Ponomarev • FRANCE 24 English
That's good to know,damn if Russia could only shed their paranoia that the West wants to destroy it,the Soviet Empire that some are so caught up in restoring was a sham,many Warsaw pact countries were forced into it and had many western sympathizers and informants,if war were to break out many of these countries would have refused to fight and those that would have would make the Ukraine campaign look like a well oiled machine. Russia has potential that is wasted on it's belligerence, they have to make a decision to go west or go w/China,they need reform minded leadership to diversify their economy and modernize their country. They need to put Putin out to pasture for this blunder, make reparation and apologies to their Ukranian brethren,and take the first hard steps to rejoining the Int. community,it's a hard job and the first steps are the hardest but a Europe no longer in fear of Ivan would go a long way offsetting China in the decades to come.

Putin might be able to take some turf in the east, but Ukraine and NATO will bleed his army white with new weapons designed to counter such moves. They will also have all the old soviet hardware NATO was left with, if Russia is gonna advance further there, they will pay one Helluva price for every inch, let alone mile. The Ukrainians have been preparing the roads they will come down IED, by IED, ambush by ambush and drone the shit out of them by night too.
They would be wise to destroy rail bridges inside Russia that feed their fronts by whatever means they can, especially if they are un guarded. A dozen teams destroying a dozen critical rail bridges over rivers in side Russia would cripple the Russian war efforts in the east and south for a long time and force Vlad to use trucks he doesn't have. He might have to drive many half worn out tanks a hundred miles or more and many will breakdown on the way and chew through fuel, logistics would be a nightmare for them. Do it all at once though and make it a surprise. Rail bridges are often miles from anywhere, including a road and it takes months or weeks minimum to replace one, depending on size.

Win in Ukraine and we could win in Georgia and Belarus, a domino effect and it would be good to keep Vlad busy in other places. Perhaps now would be a good time to go after his buddy the asshole who runs Syria. Ukrainians might end up in Georgia to get a piece of Vlad, they have to pay bribes to get into the reserves, they have to beat volunteer's away with a stick there are so many and have been since it started. After this war is over, there will be Ukrainians in Belarus and Georgia, wherever there are Russians they can kill, some folks are like that...

Vlad is attacking right away, with what he's got, I would have thought the Ukrainians would have ordered civilians out of the expected areas of advance and made arrangements, buses with troops and reservists in, civilians out.
I thought Vlad was gonna save it up, lick his wounds, reconsolidate and reequip units, bring reinforcements in, it takes time to do that! Vlad is feeding in shit piecemeal and I believe that is a mistake, they need to move before NATO aid arrives in earnest and the Ukrainians are even more prepared to meet the onslaught. This way they can destroy his army in bite sized chunks and resupply. He can't concentrate enough force this quickly to break trough. It doesn't matter how close they are to Russia, stingers can deal with close air support and dumb bombs, choppers and rockets too. Russia might also lose a lot of planes here too, if it uses them in the east. Maybe he also wants to forestall and attack in the south, while his other forces get ready, if they take Mariupol, or along the Sea of Azov coast, it threatens Putin's bridge at Kerch, linking Russia to Crimea.

It’s a consequence of the tactical situation. Now as then, the Russians face an enemy that they can’t overrun or displace. (Given what the reputation of the Russian ground forces was until weeks ago, I’m very surprised at this outcome. I guess it’s a consequence of having a leadership composed mostly of folks stealing anything not welded down.) So, just as 106 years ago, the dug-in troops get harassment by artillery, tube or unguided rocket. Trenches are the quickest way to limit exposure to the shelling.
This is the sort of situation that caused weapons to be developed that dropped shot at a steep angle: mortars and howitzers. It increased the chance of placing the shot in the trench, at which point the trench turned into a liability.

This popped up in YouTube, the civilian version of the Quantix Hybrid Drone, I imagine a few Ukrainian farmers might have had one or the agriculture department might have or a coop of farmers. A private company with one could also drive around and provide services to farmers with this thing, a business for a tech minded young farm boy. Give free samples to show the utility, recharging batteries is cheap and the business might be repeat. This is probably what I saw in that video, they do have a military recon version though. If they wanted to rip off pot grows I suppose it could be used for that too, but there are cheaper drones for that. A sword or a plowshare, like all technology, intention is everything.

Some NATO mortars are laser guided precision munitions, dunno if they are getting any. Once positions where people or weapons are stationed are located, then precision munitions can wipe them out in seconds with little warning, then they storm the trenches. They could do it with enough switchblades, if they had plenty. Take out their anti tank defenses for instance and over run the trenches with troops and tanks, break trough into their rear and rollup their flanks. They often have several layers of defense or will when extra troops get there.
Civilians have become terrified now and are choking the roads, the government needs to order civilians out, arrange transport and tell those evacuating to go door to door for elderly disabled and pets to bring along with them. Civilians should not be left in areas the Russians will occupy, just armed men and women who want to kill Russians.

I used to work with farmers who worked with the railway as a day job, they wouldn't even blink dropping a quarter of a million for equipment! They farmed out west by the section, not the acre some grew hemp at the time and were chomping to get into the CBD market, which they would own.

Still cheaper than the smallest small orange or green tractor. Farming is not for the faint of heart.
