Be excellent to each other!
Finally, some of the stuff IS irreplaceable, mostly the mountain of old soviet supplies and more importantly: radars. Once they are gone, there are no new productions. It is impossible to tell how many there were in the first place, but a very serious chunk of them is gone by now. RUs skies become more open to UA attacks every day. At some point we might see air operations back on the menue.
Similiar for men, the difference between volunteers and voluntolds is subtle. Some wifebeaters are encouraged by their women to join for the money, then we have the naive from the middle of nowhere, the convicts are mostly gone, and a wider draft seems to be imminent. All told, UA has to take out ~1.200-1.400 per day to exceed what RU can feed into the meatgrinder. It is Verdun&Falkenhayn all over.
First: nobody really knows. Counting and estimating only goes so far, perhaps some guys at CIA or the Brits have a pretty good guess, but apart of those selected few in the know, there is no way to come up with verifyable numbers. Two: Probably more than we think or hope Three: it does not matter as much anymore, drones have become the primary weapons and it is hard to run out of those. Light infantry+drones= potentially years or decades to go on.
Ay!
It is counting of votes at today´s elecetion in Germany, in the federal state of Sachsen-Anhalt. The AFD is a extremist-right party which is also Putins long arm. Unfortunately our people were stupid enough to give them 44% of the votes. The final outcome will be published tomorrow.
Thankee! Looks like I need to try one.
I am curious, in which way are they better? I have some V.s since I was a kid and have been very happy with quality etc. Maybe I lost out on something.
This is from 2000, nearly the same angle and position: https://www.reislegende.nl/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Pasterze-in-2000-Grossglockner-Hochalpenstrasse-Reislegende.jpg
Tanzwut in 3..2..1..
Always welcome to hackle me and I am always drunk with joy to see Imgurians making more than up for it.
It is a bit of a compliment, if they harass me, someone more efficient get´s a bit of a breather.
Fingers crossed! Personally I think it will take longer, but here is to hoping for a blitz!
They still have plenty to throw into the grinder. Rumors of another draft were enough to send ~100k russian men over the border into Georgia. Most of those who can, are set to leave RU before the Duma elections in the middle of September.
In WW1 a british soldier jammed his rifle in the trench walls to delay german soldiers following him. Having thus lost his rifle, we was tried&shot for treason. I just leave this here.
The original army is quite dead. Elite units like VDV and Spetsnaz have a very slim core of 5-10% originals left. Some batallions died twice or thrice over. The ones left are the shirkers, high ranking officers and some lucky grunts stuck at base.
This is literally the best confirmation that RU plans to attack NATO.
Here is what a modern RU submarine looks like. I know it is easy to confuse the older variants, so no worries and breath easy. Awesome photo though!
Thanks, and I damn well mean it, for everything. It means very much to hear this from someone as committed as myself.
Not yet, there are some claims, but no or not much real footage. Given the small payload of most drones it is unlikely that a storage bunker/shed is really taken out, nor is is likely that the depot was full. Part of the real impact is the "look-what-we-can-do", even RU is unlikely to store drones in a site which was already hit in this fashion.
"The war has not necessarily developed to our favour."
Absolutely! And it looks delicous, thanks for sharing : )
Honestly it feels like nothing and all my efforts have brought about nothing at all. I wish I could do more, because plenty of people in Ukraine do all.
Same same, it is very hard to bear.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. It is just as you say, one feels less and diminished without them.
So sorry for your loss @OP. It surely were 20 good years, try to rembemer the happiness.
I have no words to thank you for this. It means alot, literally more than I can say. Thank you.
Thanks, much needed, much welcomed.
Thank you very very much.
Thanks, helps to vent a bit.
