Yes, majority of the Weopons which the US is providing Ukraine is actually from its own stock reserves, If I am not wrong, a lot of them are very old and almost at the end of their shelf life so better to be used against Russia then to go to waste. This way Ukraine is able to get surplus arms, and US military gives newer orders to fill out the vacancy of the arms supplied to Ukraine.
Do you know that for sure? I was wondering what languages were being spoken, I take it that the lady was speaking Russian, and the guy yelling at her was speaking Ukrainian, but he understood Russian well. I think that because he called her a pig for not speaking the native language. The geo-location could of also of been faked. Who knows for sure, that's why I try and always look at the big picture, and the big time frame of what's happening on the battlefield, politically, and economically.Precisely - whole video is just a poorly executed RuSSian fake.
What happened during the Kharkov offensive is why they are nervous, but things have changed so much since then. Also during the Kherson offensive the Ukrainians lost a lot of soldiers, way more than the Russians. Although it was a good victory, and Kherson was good strategic city because it was a strong foothold over the Dnipro river, it came at too great a cost, and Russia could of held it if they wanted too IMO. I personally think the Russians should not of retreated, but they did preserve their forces. The Russians decided around September to make this a long war of attrition and to take no risks, because time is 100% on their side. I can't criticize that strategy, because it involves almost no risk. If the Ukrainians are successful and score a total victory by taking Crimea, then the Russians really were a second grade military. To me Syria was already a good testing ground of NATO equipment and strategy against Russian equipment and strategy, and Russia won that battle IMO. So I can't realistically see a Ukrainian victory.
Historian bhai, just a suggestion. Please use 'could have', 'would have' etc instead of 'could of', 'would of'. I know I know, grammar nazi and all, but 'could of' doesn't make any sense and ruins otherwise very informative posts. Just my humble opinion.
I would rather be in a T-34, then a cold muddy wet trench like most of the Ukrainian army.
Yes, pretty sure. After the geolocation of the incident got published, Anatoly Sharij asked one of his contacts in Donetsk to drive to the geolocated spot anear Makeevka and published video from the ride for comparison. It was a 100% match
I can only speak for myself. If I'm going to remain objective and unbiased, I would have to say I'm not convinced one way or another. That being said it wouldn't surprise me if the Russians faked this, or if this really was the Ukrainians. One thing I did notice was all the pro Russian people believed it was real, and all the pro Ukrainian people thought it was faked. That was not a surprise to me.
Maybe they are going to keep all the more advanced tanks such as T-90, T-14 (Not really sure if T-14 is even being used in this conflict, I haven't checked on that) etc. for later on, T-90s are being used actively though by the Russians. Let them use whatever tanks they want to use, as long as they can work and destroy the Ukrainians and serve their purpose, it's fine to me, be it T-62s, T-34s etc.
You never fail to disappoint.Precisely - whole video is just a poorly executed RuSSian fake.
Russia army is not even 5% as powerful as Soviet Red army , a combined force capable of breaching fulda gap & rushing to River Rhine in 7 days . That capability of Deep battle, air superiority & Naval might is long gone . Russia 🪆 is at most a middle power (like France etc).
That is because they want to kill the Ukrainian offensive first and deprive Ukraine of any remaining manpower and leave it open for more Russian advances.
They are saving their best tanks to meet the more advanced NATO tanks that Ukraine has received which makes sense. You want to preserve your best equipment unless necessary. That way you avoid unnecessary wear and tear and you can make sure that they are ready when you need them to. It is called being economical with resources and that's a viable military strategy.
Loitering Drones still have place and very much. High Altitude drones? It depends on how robust is your Mobile Air defence. We are no Russia though. We cant replenish equipment lost as fast as Russia/China or US can.
