International Russia/Ukraine Megathread V15

[SandisLL]

NASAMS launchers might be operated in remote control mode....unmanned after deployment in location.
Then if launcher is destroyed, damage done depends from how much missiles remained in boxes and what model of missiles.
Launcher is easy to manufacture quickly and battery isn't with just 1 or 2 launchers.
Also fake inflammable dummies for these exists long ago...like for S-300 launchers...

 

[SandisLL]

The first Himars was destroyed by an Iskander missile, it was out in the open too long.
Three Abrams tanks also probably have been recently destroyed/disabled recently. Ukraine is really having a bad time without enough shells from the US.

After watching video I clearly see that either video is absolute fake artificially made for PR purposes ....or it wasn't Iskander....from Iskander blow should be considerably more impressive in any case...from Thocka too...
There isn't any question that something like these might had been used...
While if strike was real ( with other tool )....crew by 90% is gone...

 

[SandisLL]

In this video strike even if simulated is simulation or real video about potential strike with unitary warhead with weight in no case more than 30 kg ( in metric units )...
Most likely 8-20 kg ...

 

[SandisLL]

While both Thocks and Iskander does have different warheads and might use monoblock warheads...then in such case they are like 1000-1100 lbs aviation bomb! Imagine how should look truck after direct hit with such aviation bomb?

Man loitering munitions are cray, cant bring heavy tech to front at all

One of our generals said loiterimg munitions with A.I are the future, can already make it wait on top of roof and fly into target that drives by without human control

Ths maybe yeah...and AI is developed also for unmanned firing posts and ground machines etc.
I know one guy who had different niche in IT and still attempted to experiment with civilian drone ( quadrocopter ) using AI in 2018 th....
He had to hide from quadrocopter until batteries were done.
While for automated stationary firing posts with pre programmed firing sector even then AI was enough....good.

Think about a swarm of this coming to your fighting position, each with a warhead the size of a grenade.



Followed by an assault by several of these:

 

[SandisLL]

Quadrocopter had task to video record guy and certain point where to land....after task is done. While min distance had been set for 30 meters from guy.
Quadrocopter then once had closed distance till some 3 meters from guy...and then increased distance till 100 meters.....
While in next attempt quadrocopter ignored distance and guy had to fall down to evade to be hit in the face....then some 25 minutes in row like such stuff....in beach where nowhere to hide...2018 th. AI.

meanwhile in reality..

 

[SandisLL]

31 Abrams tanks and late 1989 th era export versions for 1000 miles long actual frontline really is generous supply ....
Also despite trolls crying in internet " my taxpayer's money " and mentioning actual potential bid price for NEW tank as real " crying taxpayer's expenses " is ridiculous psy Op.
Such tanks U.S isn't capable to sell anyone except maybe Ukr if Zelensky administration will open wallets and actually Ukraine is sitting on EU/ EEZ and IMF, IBRD, WB and EBRD payrolls for real money while from U.S they needs old weapons and ammo supplies.

 

[SandisLL]

Ability of U.S to deliver actual tanks de facto vs promises is such reality:
U.S had promised to deliver 116 old Abrams tanks to Poland in exchange for 350 Poland's tanks transfer to Ukr.
Reality : during 1 year U.S had delivered just 69 from these old tanks....vuala.
At least big bonus for U.S cos they had leased 28 non export Abrams version tanks for " training "....and these Biden really had installed really surprisingly quickly. I admit that it was surprise for me.~ 18 hours....damn cool.
From paid contract for new Abrams from 250 tanks are delivered 0.
Therefore South Korea now is their 2 nd tanks supplier....
Poles doesn't like autoloader and doesn't have intent to use tanks for fast offensive , mainly for defense.. .U.S might had stepped up with supplies...

I'm not arestantowich gambler and brainwasher with opinions according who this moment is paying this clown....

Not activation of Lend Lease process alone was awful signal for dreamers.
Lend Lease is provided to country who according to politicians will win war....not for loosers. ...so Ukraine should start to think with brains, while if they had arestantowich as advisor for parallel world it is difficult to imagine how Ukr lawmakers and president accidentally might appear that does have elementary logic. Sad reality.

Europe since September 2023 th is preparing for scenario that Trump will be POTUS after elections and without open words will do job " europe first and we maybe will negotiate with new Eurasian Empire under the table ".
Will see....
It is business and nothing personal. Like for U.S businesses....
While this Empire will be lead by countries like China, India and Pakistan and some others...

 

[SandisLL]

Scenario ofc depends will Trump remowe forces from Europe or no.
If yes, EU will negotiate under the table and there will be new Eurasian Empire...while not ruled by Russia.
From Lisbon and China till Gulf countries...including also India and Pakistan...
Financially .....quickly.

 

[SandisLL]

Most likely this long years in row heavily pro Kremlin oriented Putin's supporter had posted real number of death in Avdiivka battle. Therefore he later remembered that President Putin had banned to made in public casualities numbers since April 2022 th....Therefore as law abiding citizen this troll had commited " suicide " mission as usually in Russia.

Starling IMHO is overrated cos AFAIK our military never had used Starlink and never had intent to use this stuff ...

 

[curryjunkie]

If he does pull out it's a 2 way street, no more using bases in Europe to fly from , or ports to refuel your fleet, the coalition in a future war would be USA and Canadia..
