The War in Ukraine

Which then you have to wonder why go after Commercial Aircraft if they aren’t at war with the West right?
Trying to get back at the West for financial the God-code which may or may not be embedded in Western systems… 😉 …it’s not just photocopiers with embedded Manchurian software in them…
 
Russian EW for the most part is broad spectrum jamming. Their DF and SigInt capabilities are fairly 1980’s vintage. The only efforts they seem to have put in is ILS and Commercial GPS spamming
Whatever happened to the, and I quote, "eye watering capabilities" we heard about when Russia first invaded Crimea in 2014?

They made it sound like Russian EW capabilities were pretty sophisticated, but now that sounds like it's not the case?

It's formidable, but they had not really taken into account the effect on their own systems. So that forced them to use more sparingly than they planned.
 
the ethnic history of the region is complicated. And Putin's "history" is out to lunch in a big way (as if we didn't already know that)

Uhm dude, Defense Budget…
We constantly overestimate Enemy capabilities and diminish our own. Two fold reason, more money for equipment and R&D, as well as not building in complacency.

Besides its relative scale, can Russia support an EW cell to do DF work and jamming on a small SOF element - yes, but not over a large area - and not for long if they are getting targeted by the good guys.

A lot of issue we’ve had with Russia was because we couldn’t kill them when they fucked around, however the Ukrainians aren’t hesitant about the Find Out part.
 
Unfortunately not reported in more media.
I suppose it's to be expected...

Not gonna lie, I'm sitting here just imagining what it would be like to be sneaking around Russia as a civilian & low key thinking of ways I could sabotage their kit while not getting caught...

Pretty intense just to think about. Like some basic Metal Gear Solid shit. (The original, for PS 1...)
 
So two days of troops…

It’s the next 1/2 Million that may be an issue.

Release the Lemmings! :)
