International Russia/Ukraine Megathread V15

[gentel]

Man I didn't think anything interesting was gonna happen this weekend, then a big breakthrough attack for Ukraine like this - I'm definitely impressed

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

34% of Russian strategic bombers destroyed!! Oooof..

Or as SpinMarino would say... 3 and 4 are fairly small numbers and Russia has many more...aaaand Ukraine lost those spiffy Ali Express drones....5D chess...

 

[Devil's_Advocate]

Is this the 100th time Russia threatened to nuke US/Ukraine/world?

It would be nice if Taco Bell stamped a promotional TACO card(in honor of our president) every time Russia threatened the world with nukes. I'd be rolling in free tacos by now.

NATO is a threat to Russia.

How is it a failure when Russia has already taken 20% of Ukraine?
While the Ukrainian Army keeps shrinking, Russia is adding two Divisions of soldiers a month to this conflict.

Massive losses? 41 planes is now a 'massive' loss?
The Russian military degradation is irreversible? No, it is not. I think you are confusing Russia with Ukraine. The Russian military industrial complex is doing just fine.

...that will not do shit to end this conflict.

. Ukraine has not joined NATO.
. Russia has 20% of Ukraine.
. Russia has 700,000 soldiers in theater while Ukraine has only 250,000.
. The Ukrainian Army keeps shrinking while the Russian Army keeps growing.

Ukraine just destroyed 34% of Russian's strategic bombers. Could you cope any harder?

Holy hell....

I don't think you are aware that the age of strategic bombers has been surpassed by missiles. That is why the Russian bomber fleet counts for only 3% of their Air Force. Much like the US. We are no longer in 1945 son.

It is the 100th time Ukraine is claiming success in its conflict against Russia. They will have Russia destroyed any day now. The opposite could never happen.

Keeping the Tu-95 operational isn't cheap, the Russians spent millions on modernisation programs for them. Only a country of drunk retards would spend millions maintaining a completely useless asset year after year.

Very impressive work from the Ukes and their CIA/ MI6 handlers. The real question is how often can they pull off these kind of operations inside Russia? They admitted this took a year and a half to plan. The last big operation inside Russia was a year ago in Kursk. This suggests Ukes aren't capable of such operations more than once year because getting the reconnaissance, organizing the intelligence and planning and executing such sophisticated attacks isn't easy.

From now until the next operation of such scale Ukraine is still going to have to man the frontlines and defend from the next Russian offensive. The issues they've been having the last 6 months will still be present going forward but what they did today was most definitely significant and impressive. The Ukes have been assassinating generals, killing government officials and now striking nuclear bomber fleets 2500 KM inside Russia while also targeting missile manufacturing sites.

Russia is going to have to show strength and demonstrate the ability to also conduct such sophisticated operations inside Ukraine which go beyond the war of attrition in small towns and villages. Russia is going to have to show that they too can sabotage and take out government officials and high command in the Ukrainian military.

If they can't and Ukraine can carry out such attacks deep inside Russia more frequently then it may change the course of the war and cause uneasiness in the Russian internal political structure which could put pressure on Putin to escalate things further by using tactical nukes etc.

I'm interested to see how Russia will respond to today's attack. Either way wars are made up of little battles and Russia most definitely took an L today. Huge escalation and dangerous times we are living in. Buckle up.

Got to hand it to Zelensky here that was a crafty move. But he may of just crossed the Rubicon n point of no return . He may of just cost Russia billions but what did it really accomplish. You think Russia gonna say okay were beat an go home? He didn't poke the bear Ukraine just slapped the bear on the ass with hot iron . When they gather themselves no telling what Putin is going to hit back with.

Putler will send a large scale attack on apartment buildings and trying to kill as many woman and children as possible. Not sure how much more escalation there can be....of course he could declare war instead of just a little SMO

 

[USA!USA!]

Huge escalation and dangerous times we are living in. Buckle up.

The people claiming Ukraine is escalating things makes me laugh.. Russia fucking invaded their country and routinely attacks their capital city and kills their civilians.

If anything, this is just retaliation for being fucking invaded - not escalation. Are they supposed to just lay down and take it? LOL

Well he could say f this and tactical nuke Kyiv . What's the world going to do - say hes an evil terrible person - they already do. Are they going to go to nuclear war over it no.. so yeah he could do that. Worst we could do os sanctions but hes used to that an likely doesn't care.

Holy hell....

He is saying the 7,000,000,000 in damages is nothing and won’t effect the war at all. It’s literally the dumbest thing I have read in 3 years regarding the war.

Not to mention the strain this is going to put on logistics for Russia via trucks moving forward.



He could have admitted this was a blow to Russia and a great operation by Ukraine and been done with it. Instead he is tripling down on being a complete imbecile, lol.

Maybe like sarmat last test? Silo was gone and to build this does take years and actual cost is more than 100 m$ for silo and years to build.

I had posted that please nuke or stfu. It is very boring threat for pussy weaklings. Pussy weaklings in puffy cubicles. We had lived decades with matushka when they had working nukes and nothing had happened.
You are weakling if you fear ....weak pussy...

Ofc tensions are mainly for plebs to watch, elites always had traded and consumed vodochka with their best friends from russia. Life is life.


Worst we can do?
Get this: to supply ukr thermonuclear weapons. What stuff huilo will do? They can't defeat even 1978 th era SLICBM ..and they does knows this reality. Life is life.

Ofc ukr not likely might get ICBM etc....
However we do have a lot of small warheads suitable by size to fit for example on cruise missiles. Yes, even Tomahawk isn't mandatory to use for this.

Small, nice pelmeni for zakuska..maybe 10, maybe 110 or 200 kT zakuska... bonbonga for ukr.
Do you know utilization costs? Maybe cheaper will appear to gave ukr bonbonga? One, two, maybe 3 bonbongas?

Okey, short range stuff will not reach moscow but easy peasy might turn Luhansk for example into moon crater....

What stuff huilo will do? Threat nuke west? Okey...
They does have damn a lot of nice targets....also Mayak beauty too and can't defend these. They can't.

This reality.

 

[SandisLL]

One from most lucrative targets for ukr might be A 50 type AWACS.

Why?
Cos all they does needs to do is to damage dish ( radar ).
While russia might produce very good radars for AWACS, this really is niche field in already narrow niche engineering field. This does requires very good engineers specialized in radars and from this field : niche called radars for AWACS.

Russia always had low number of such engineers and when had 0 sanctions and even were " friendly " with west...delays to supply AWACS always were cos slow production rate for these " dishes "...
This wasn't cos $.

 

[SandisLL]

If about radars, matushka had started to produce in small series new radars for pantsirj and tor ....they are physically different and stations also does have more processing power...also ofc most likely next upgrades in algos to work with slow targets.
One stuff that not likely they are able to use them when device is moving.
For ship they might afford heavy stabilization mechanisms and heavy constructions for this...heavier than tanks...

For ground stuff on wheels or tracks they can't afford xxx tons stuff.

 

[SandisLL]

There is one delusion thing in pro ukr circles about Poland.
Yes, conservatives and PiS are somewhat weird and we do know their real opinions about possible Ukr in EU or NATO...like NO.

However PiS politicians during last years had proved fast decision making when humanitary aid etc and other supplies for Ukr...without long talks.

Poland had best President they ever had, Mr Duda.

He prevented ukr border blockades for aid delivery FOR Ukraine.
He didn't allowed to cut benefits for refugees kids.

President Duda was one from best political leaders europe had during last 20 years. By doing not talking, all politicians loves to talk a lot and longer talks = better for them.
Unfortunately Duda will not be president anymore and will not be Prime Minister.

Donald ( i don't talk about trump here ) fears from trade unions a lot....
Rafal most likely will allow long discussions before decisions.

While Donald will agree to help ukr and so on....

It is ...
For example if you have $ and want to purchase bonbonga, Duda might tell OK today, Tusk after month etc...
Even if you need this today.
Plus lectures about bandera ukr will get even more from pro EU oriented modernists..despite sharp PiS too isn't gift for ukr.

Well then why doesn't he just do it? What is he worried about? Like you said the world will do nothing.

 

[SandisLL]

Absolutely nothing ofc. Some accounting errors ofc might happen.... nothing special ofc...

I don't know about Neptune but some other similar stuff does have enough dimensions to accomodate thermonuclear warhead...from 1980 ies... for cheaper utilization process.
Luhansk might taste 10 - 20 Hriosima worth stuff..

Russian bots crying about their otvetka are empty noise.
Air defense is point type stuff and boxing journeyman's weapon ...
Russia doesn't have technical tools to defeat against 1978 th model SLICBMS.... this reality. . Not obdirshnik etc for weaklings pussies...or avangard etc wunderwaffes...

Dying west in 1978 th had re entry buses with MIRVS and decoys... with speed more than 25 M. So obiviously hypersonic weapons....yup. with penteration aids.

Obdirshnik for sure.
