Ukraine Invasion - Please do not post videos showing attacks/similar

[Gerard]

Looks like the RAF Typhoon has turned off its transponder... Something's brewing

*gasp*

Seriously?

 

[Kill_Phil]

I'm not sure what you're responding to there, no one made any claim about Germany and rubles. Germany is the reason for not blocking them from SWIFT.

Is that confirmed? Typical of the Germans if so

I won’t post the links to the videos but is Russia equipment really that bad? Missiles failing to launch properly, including one that goes up about 100ft and comes straight back down. Plus a military transport plane has crashed in Russia.

Seem fair bit of Russian military aircraft been taken down do people think that is the end of air being taken out from now on though?

*gasp*

Seriously?

Yeah there's a couple of KC2 Voyagers up too, one from Cyprus over Romania and one over Poland from Brize

A lot of the good ukraine AA has been taken out.

Sure there are handheld but the good stuff, used, destroyed or inoperable I believe for the most part.

The official Ukraine twitter accounts showing C17's turning up loaded with weapons.

Oh ok

 

[Terminal_Boy]

That will be all the carrots we ate

You do know that carrot story was circulated in an attempt to disguise the fact that the British nightfighter aircraft were fitted with experimental air to air radar which had improved their intercept rate tenfold?

They have been around all day and will be to support in flight refueling of patrol aircraft along the border (at a guess).

 

[Slam62]

Yeah there's no military response from the west, nothing nada

Crikey the Ukraines don't seem that bothered, new boss same as the old boss etc

I am just watching BBC news and it is amazing just how poor and behind they are at reporting news. The age of the internet has made broadcast news irrelevant.

Maybe not in the open, but I'd hope that our black ops/spooks inside Russia/Ukraine are doing their thing.

Ukraine isn't a NATO member.
Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are NATO members, so if putin starts any crap with thier borders It would literally trigger world war 3.
Putin is well aware of this.
I feel bad for Ukraine.. They are basically being left to fend for themselves

It would not trigger WW3 it would trigger a localised war on European soil. End of. Russia could not afford or win a protracted war across the globe. More drama nonsense.

Not everyone is glued to a computer or a smartphone though, so happy to watch at there own pace from sources they trust (rightly or wrongly)

It is fact checked though, a lot of what is put on twitter is fake / propaganda.
