re: Russia deploys hypersonic missile in Ukraine….

They are organized enough to go into a large country and begin to surround the major cities. They are taking out military targets without resistance. How are the Ukrainians going to get resupplied? Russia owns the air. They will obtain a victory by the end of April. They could be leveling cities but are taking a more controlled approach.

Umm, holy hell where to even start with this.

Victory by end of april? Define the victory conditions? All of ukraine? The sepratists regions? Sepratists regions plus a land bridge between them? New government? Zelensky stays but loses some land? They could very well achieve victory tomorrow depending on what goals they actually want to accomplish.

Taking out military targets without resistance? Then why havent they taken locations they’ve been attacking since the start? Oh… probably because there is resistance, no? Or are you claiming that there is no resistance anywhere because 1 hypersonic missle was used and they couldnt stop it?

How are the Ukrainians going to get resupplied? Have you not seen the hundreds of russian supply vehicles on fire? It took them 3 weeks to figure out they need to protect their supply lines. By all accounts, the Russians are having a hell of a time trying to sustain supply lines to the front. That may improve moving forward after their current strategic pause.

Russia owns the air… except when they dont and the ukrainians bomb a dozen of their helicopters sitting at the Kherson airport like 2 days ago.

ETA: They COULD be flattening cities? They area, and still haven't taken Mariupol
