I saw this one and Sean Connery was the Captain....

Looks like there's a real shift in the EU on Ukraine and the weapons are pouring in to finish Vlad off fast in Ukraine and probably in Russia too. Looks like they've had enough of the cocksucker and figure Ukraine can win, they won't need as many arms when Ukraine is done with Russia. The tide of war has changed, and Russia might be defeated and driven from Ukraine by the end of the year, once they have the coast along the sea of Azov, they will finish off the Kerch bridge cut off Crimea and take it when ready. France and especially Germany are really coming through with heavy weapons and AA defense, they've taken the measure of the Russians. Germany is rearming and Ukraine destroying the Russian army will give them the time they need to rebuild, before the Russians can get on their feet. When they do, they will be dealing with Ukraine as a prosperous regional military superpower that can defeat any conventional threat from them alone.

The Russians are getting guns too... Nothing was ever surplus in the Soviet Union; it was all stored.

Battlefield drones for Ukraine.

Senator Chris Murphy wants to divert the upcoming shipment of air-to-air AMRAAM missiles to Saudi Arabia and send it to Ukraine instead.

It looks like they might go for Kherson city, the other pocket in the region is being reduced. When they finish off the Kherson pockets if will free up a lot of troops for other operations, perhaps one to the sea of Azov further east that would divide the Russians. By the time they reach the sea of Azov the Russian army should be finished in Ukraine trying to stop them and they will probably go for the Kerch bridge and Crimea ASAP while Russia is stunned, weak and reeling. Why wait for the Russians to move additional forces there and fortify the place, Vlad already cleaned everything out of Crimea and sent it to Ukraine. Losing Kherson might convince the rest of the Russians in Crimea to get outta dodge.



Kherson residents told to evacuate as Ukraine prepares an advance

36,468 views Oct 14, 2022 "Ukraine has warned they are going to try and take Kherson city." The Ukrainian government is asking residents in Kherson to leave, even if it means entering Russian occupied territory, says Askold Krushelnycky reporting from Niprov, Ukraine.

Older guys tend to do that in these circumstances, they know the score and there are those among them who will kill the officers and others will go along. They know it's a death sentence for no good reason and that Russia is losing badly to a country it attacked and that the world is against them. One day the war will be over, and Putin gone, either their families can come west, or they will go home, so will the draft dodgers. They will probably even get back pay while held as prisoners, screwing the veterans won't be popular in Russia. Their government can't seem to hide much from the population these days, at least from those who want to know the truth.

Ukraine is getting stronger in the air HARM missiles and HIMARS and drones are taking out the Russian air defenses around the front lines allowing them to bomb the shit out of Russian ground forces. They are moving on another vital supply hub in the east that will cripple Russian logistics further south.

This might also have something to do with the large increases in European and others military support to Ukraine too. A green light from the UN, fuck the security council, they don't need them, just a large majority of nations condemning it and voluntary support for Ukraine. Russia violated the UN charter with its illegal invasion, both in 2014 and in 2022, as well as its own security assurances to Ukraine made on several occasions. Russia has also invaded other neighbors and former Soviet republics too.

Ukraine war: Russian troops face lack of supplies | DW News

3,997 views Oct 14, 2022 Just weeks after Russian President Putin announced a 'partial mobilization,' the first soldiers are arriving on the front lines.

"The report said the letter asked the Pentagon to cover a new request from Ukraine and costs for the rest of the year, acknowledging that others, including Kyiv’s allies, had also helped fund the terminals sent so far.
A senior U.S. defense official confirmed late Thursday that Musk had privately urged the Pentagon to pay up. The official said there was no comparable system with such widespread applicability. The bill is likely to run into the hundreds of millions of dollars over the next year, the official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue."

I think it is fair for him to get paid for it. At the begining no one thought the "Special Operation" would still be running a year later.

Svatove needs to be taken before winter.

I believe that after his asymmetric and treasonable messing with Starlink, the payment schedule needs some readjustment. Give him cost on the equipment, and a loss on administration.
