    Not necessarily. The hand held missiles (stingers, etc.) are only good to 10,000 feet. Great for helicopters, et. not so good for high flying stuff. Ukraine has S300 systems but they are "old" technology and are easily spoofed by modern countermeasures, plus Russia will be focusing on taking the remaining systems out with anti-radiation missiles when they are activated.

    Really good article on what Putin, Russia and far right Americans have in common.
    The far right really needs to move to Saudi Arabia or time warp back to feudal kings.
    Hater and Thread. Thread you need to make it clear to hater what he is. He is on your page of worshipping flawed people.

    Paywall if you have visited too many times. I know hater will be able to read it because the NY Times that outed the CIA numerous times, is in actuality an arm of the CIA. Try incognito hater if you actual try to keep up. And yes, its an opinion, but very telling imo.

    I was referring to their likely inability to keep aging airframes and engines in the sky due to simple maintenance.

    That said, Russians don't have many precision guided weapons. Fly high= miss targets with dumb bombs.

    You may or may not be aware, RUS has ONE tank factory, and RUMINT has it that already shut down due to no new parts shipments.

    RUS has practically ZERO chip manufacturing capacity. When anything electronic breaks, the parts inventory loses another irreplaceable part.

    Russian supply truck fleet has another few weeks left of mechanical viability (no NCOs forcing maintenance discipline). After that, their front line troops will not have food or ammo, or things like tents for that matter. Spring rains are going to make for increasing likelihood of desertions/surrenders.

    Thread wants a civil war?
    Is this what happens when one becomes old and removed from human contact?

    And you are a minority. So get your ass to Saudi Arabia for the comfort given by a deity ruling your life.

    In an army that is so top-down in authority, and in which junior leaders have little initiative, losing senior commanders has got to be paralyzing for units.

    I see some overextended Russian BTGs looking like they are going to get cutoff, with the possibility of an entire Army in the same boat shortly after that.

    "Russian forces transition to defensive".

    See how long they can hold that with cold, starving troops.

    Russia's Gas Payment in Rubles Demand a 'Breach of Contract': Germany

    Russia's demand for payments in rubles for gas deliveries to Europe cons utes a breach of contract, Germany warned Wednesday.

    "The announcement of paying in rubles is... a breach of the contract and we will now discuss with our European partners how we would react to that," said German Economy Minister Robert Habeck, whose country imported 55 percent of its natural gas from Russia before Moscow invaded Ukraine.

    Calls have been growing for Western allies to further ramp up sanctions against Moscow over its assault on Ukraine through a complete embargo of energy imports from Russia.
