Slovakia just gave Ukraine 2 more Zuzana 2 155mm self propelled howitzers bringing the total to 6 in Ukraine with 2 more coming shortly which will make 8. They also placed an order for new Zuzana 2s but that order will take time to fill. These are outstanding systems and they are wheeled instead of tracked so they are much more mobile than their tracked Russian counterparts.

So do they look similar to the things from the French?

Yea but the Zuzana 2 are 8 wheeled while the CAESARs are 6 wheeled that were sent to Ukraine. The new production CAESARs are 8 wheeled now though. But they are very comparable systems.

The 4 HIMARS from the army’s reserves should be arriving soon to Ukraine as well giving them 20 HIMARS and 10 M270 MLRS along with a nice complement of CAESARs, Zuzana 2s, Czech DANAs, German PzH 2000s, Polish Krabs and American M109s to go with their Soviet era self propelled howitzers too. Ukraine has the stand-off firepower to really cause problems for Russia as long as they can keep enough 155 and 152 mm ammunition supplied to the guns. Not to mention 16 more of the very coveted M777 light long range howitzers that the Ukrainians absolutely love for their ability to shoot and scoot. 16 more M119 105 mm guns are on the way as well. Hopefully the Switchblade 600 drones will be sent soon as well because they can be a big problem for the Russians with their loitering capability.

Russian & American patrols crossed paths in al-Hasakah province, Syria, yesterday

Clearly, the American patrols are all Putin supporters

If a Russian crawls to a forward observation post forward of the previously established line, they are yelling about the line collapsing. « Look at the map » they are delusional.

Cypher, from the source article, on Meduza, it seems that Putin's favorite group is LUBE. You cannot make this stuff up, plus guard dolphins

Ukraine’s window of opportunity to regain annexed territory is roughly the next four-five weeks. Every day between now and the middle of November that Ukraine isn’t advancing is a day Ukraine is losing territory it will never get back.

There should be a modern adaptation of The Wages of Fear/Sorcerer about Russian dissidents asked to traverse the heavily damaged Kerch Bridge to transport highly unstable explosives from Russia to Crimea in exchange for their freedom.

...and it should have a Tangerine Dream soundtrack.

How’s it feel not being able to please your woman, or man in Russia’s case as of late, because you’ve got vodka dick?

I mean… how can you see this as anything but a win for Russia?!

If this is a Russian victory, I guess it's a good thing they didn't knock out the entire bridge then.
