    The War in Ukraine

    Russian perspective may be way off base to us, but assuming they think like us will not lead to any kind of successful peace other than by a Russian unconditional surrender. Likely only possible after a coalition of the willing or NATO become involved. Russia has, to them, many legit reasons...

    The War in Ukraine

    Anybody know if any of these have been flown by C17/C5/AN124 to Ukraine yet? Or if they even can be? Or is the plan via canal through Europe and Poland or Romania?

    The War in Ukraine

    Just a swipe at Trumps ego to remind him the other kompromat can just as easily be released if he gets any independent ideas that are bad for Russia.

    The War in Ukraine

    Which will result in a shift in the power center from Germany/France to Poland/Finland

    The War in Ukraine

    It really doesn't matter what Trump 'wants', Ukraine will not agree even if US aid is cut off. And Poland/Baltics/Nordics won't put up with the US dictating NATO direction and limitations much longer and will formulate their own intervention according to their other treaty commitments. And when...

    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    Corrected post - didn't look at the graphic closely re Canada's cups of coffee. But what is this fixation on coffee all about? Why not compare to a liter of gasoline - also a consumer consumables but one that affects buyers more in terms of annual income?

    The War in Ukraine

    The flip side of the Chinese drone coin: a huge truck-mounted system, one of at least three large mobile ground-based high-power microwave directed energy weapons, primarily intended to down drones https://www.twz.com/news-features/massive-chinese-anti-drone-high-power-microwave-weapon-emerges...

    The War in Ukraine

    https://www.twz.com/air/new-heavyweight-chinese-jet-drone-looks-to-be-a-swarm-mothership "The U.S. military has increasingly been lagging behind, at best, in many of these areas. The abandonment of work, at least publicly, on UCAVs within America’s armed forces has been particularly pronounced...

    The War in Ukraine

    And a good look inside the Unmanned Systems command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. I don't see this level of unit autonomy in R&D, production and acquisition, let alone implementation, anywhere in the west yet. Even in areas that are not open source yet...

    The War in Ukraine

    Tricky calculation for the drone battalion commander supporting the Kursk offensive: will using an fpv attack drone (and supporting ISR drones etc) on this pile of **** be worth the positive, or negative, media attention in Russia and the US.

    The War in Ukraine

    Ukraine related (but not the war). With perseverance and ingenuity (plus some skills) and very little in the way of tools or purchased materials, from homeless to sheltered. It will be hard for Russia to mold/beat out of Ukrainians, that level of independence and determination and make them...

    The War in Ukraine

    So now the the US has given its 'official blessing' (not that Ukraine actually needed it - effectively NK declared war on Ukraine no matter where NK troops are posted) to take out NK troops in Russia, I wonder how long until the SBU starts targeting transportation infrastructure in NK used to...

    The War in Ukraine

    The Aussie sent a bunch of flatpack cardboard drones months and months ago. The iteration war continues. Russia copies and improved on the Australian idea and is now being copied/improved upon in turn by Ukraine.

    The War in Ukraine

    Another WW2 tactic. Lots of fast moving expendable's working as a swarm to probe and find weaknesses in the line to exploit. Only now dualsports or dirt bikes instead of 2wd Ural (BMW knockoff) sidecars.

    The War in Ukraine

    You assume the work has not already started. My assumption is that once it became a publicly discussed option by the UAF and Ukrainian politicians, the prep work at the very least had already been started. While they may prefer Article 5/6 'protection' - although why I do not understand, the EU...
