Hows it get all the way to Moscow without be shot down before what air defence doing
I’m just waiting for the next plot twist where we find out it was a Russian drone they were trying to shoot down.
Just waiting for some bright spark to load cluster ammo from captured russian stock into a moscow drone..

Put Wagner stickers on each component, so when they get shot down and they come across the wreckage, Putin loses his **** as to whether Prigozhin’s coming for him again.

Meanwhile Ukrainians look across the river at Romania and wonder why anyone would ever question their aspiration to join NATO.

You have to be mad to think Putin isn't throwing everything he has at this.
His latest call up is Dads army ffs its went from 65 to 70 year olds now heading for the front lines,
he also need the equipment to arm any one else, he cant do it. No hes at his limit unless he sends the females next
Hunderds of thousand of young men who would have been conscripted have fled the country the number was put at 700k.

Better hope for the Wagnerites sake that the Belarusians can keep them in check, as I imagine the Poles would paint a Jackson Pollock across the Suwalki Gap with them.

It's a ridiculous sentiment, Wagner are mercenaries first and foremost, they aren't going to march anywhere without being paid, so who is going to pay them to march on Poland?
Even their stay in Belarus is very suspicious, as someone needs to pay them to stay there and train Belarusian troops as well.
Indeed. It's a total sham. My opinion is that it is just an attempt at cause to -legally- start a larger mobilisation process for Russia, that will then be diverted to Ukraine.
Fit for military service in Russia is in the 20-30 millions for both genders, obviously can't send all of those as some will be needed for services, manufacturing, etc. though on a full war footing they'd start mobilising women into those roles to free up men for the frontlines.
There is a substantial number of the most fit age range who have left the country but Putin has been emptying out many of the poorer regions first - you'll be seeing older people more because he'd rather sent a 70 year old from the Russian far east than a 20 year old from richer western regions - ironically some of the border regions with Ukraine have been almost untouched by conscription/mobilisation - in the footage of Wagner's uprising the towns are full of young adults while on the other hand some of the poor villages are bemoaning there are hardly any men left.
Russia is slowly ramping up equipment production for example a redesigned, with quality issues, AK-12 is increasingly appearing with Russian troops with production expected to ramp to mass production levels in the second half of this year.

They'll need to ramp up production as stockpiles won't last forever.
As the production and recruitment drives up they'll go onto more of a war footing, but that has a cost to the economy itself as well.
Prefect. Fingers crossed NATO move air defence systems to secure Romania from Russia’s terrible inaccurate weapons. 75km of SAM coverage should do it.
