It's starting to look like the current Russian army in Ukraine is at breaking point. Michael Clark on Sky News was saying the othe day Russia has deployed all of it's reserves and any redeployment is taking away troops from other fronts. Such a shame it's taken until now for Ukraine to reach this point, a few more weeks and then it's the rainy season and after that Winter.

It will be interesting to see if Putin calls for another round of mobilization this autumn. I can't see he has any choice if he wants any sort of result from this war and Ukraine is only going to get stronger from here on out.

Dead bradleys so far summarised, but the majority have clearly done their job of protecting the crew.
The US have thousands of them so could send hundreds more with pretty much no impact on their mothballed reserves.

Think in the US people where saying this is technically saving their departments loads of money as they would have had to pay for them to be taken apart replaced etc lol. Hilarious these are quite literally the US' scraps and spares.

good question

you are seeing what you are being fed
you are being fed desperate items of success. Be it singular drone attacks, reachin the outskirts of a meaningless village, singular artillery strike videos etc.
In hope that you imply there is overwhelming success at the front

reality is that after THREE MONTHS of "counteroffensive" you need a magnifying glass to spot the progress, captured VILLAGES can be counted on 10 fingers, and there is no indication of FRONT collapsing. I think russia regained more land in the north meanwhile

All that is needed is your compliance to spend more of your money

You literally are making an idiotic comment. Do you realize the scale of the map you are looking at? Do you even comprehend why it is slower? Do you know why that 'meaningless' village was targeted?

I feel dirty that my simple question has been sullied by this mind melting drivel.
 
Interesting observation concerning counter battery artillery @ 3:00 which parallels what I was saying the other day about the level of deverstaion the Russian artilery companies have met these last six weeks.


I just can't see how you can lose up to 25 howitzers a day and not have gaps in your artillery cover.

The above surely points to a collapse, momentum is Russia losing ground now.

I think that overplays what's being reported somewhat, overstreched would be a more accurate term. Russia was looking to go on the attack in the north but it looks increasingly likely that attack is going to be cancelled quicker then Meghan Markle's next Nexfilx show to sure-up the south.

From the videos the use of HIMARS and precision artillery against Russian artillery pieces has taken a huge step up. Their losses must be staggering.

The contested areas are at least 75% gains for Ukraine. The dislodge Russian position are smaller but by no way insignificant. materiel and manpower losses are massively in favour of the Ukrainians which is hugely significant considering the Ukrainians are the attacking force and attacking with impetus while simultaneously resisting and even counter attacking Russian advances in the north.

So far the Ukrainians seem to have regained around 260 square kilometres, an area the size of Birmingham liberated and at least that contested. Last month the Ukrainians demilitarised Valdolf Putler to the tune of 1.25-1.4 billion dollars.

The cost to us for assisting the Ukrainians fight a tyrant was a few storm shadow, brimstone, starstreak missiles, some armoured vehicles and maybe few hundred thousand pounds in various types of mostly EOL ammunition due for disposal.
