Fully agree about the Bradley. For our forces they are a complete no go and obsolete. But compared with some of the shite Ukraine has had to keep running to fight this war they would be useful just for the fact that they can carry troops to the front while having enough armor to give them protection from small arms fire and have a chain gun or anti tank system for some sort of fire support. Not at all the most ideal piece of machinery just like the M113 is obsolete for our forces also but they could at least serve a purpose in Ukraine and we could write them off our books. They have made it clear they need armored vehicles any way they can get them. We don’t need them so it just makes sense to me. If they get blown to shite or break down it’s not like you’re losing a HIMARS or M109. I’m glad they are figuring out a way to get them 90 upgraded T-72s to them though. They already know these systems and can hit the ground running with them. My big question is where are artillery shells going to be coming from if this drags out several more months? South Korea most likely has the largest stockpile of 155 mm right now along with the United States but we are burning through our reserves at an unsustainable pace.

Multiple Intercepts are talking about 35-38 RU in one incident and 12-15 in another being mowed down by GRU/Chechen blocking units trying to flee combat zone. Looking forward to explanation/notes

It had over three times the number of pages but don't let facts get in the way of a good rant.
BTW "war-hawking circle jerk" is a better use of the language or you could have labeled posters here as circle-jerking warhawks.

British Defence Intelligence
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 5 November 2022
INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
Russia is probably struggling to provide military training for its current mobilisation drive and its annual autumn conscription intake. The Russian Armed Forces were already stretched providing training for the approximate 300,000 troops required for its 'partial mobilisation, announced on 21 September 2022. These issues will be compounded by the additional regular autumn annual conscription cycle, announced on 30 September 2022 and starting 01 November 2022, which is usually expected to bring in an additional 120,000 personnel.
Newly mobilised conscripts likely have minimal training or no training at all. Experienced officers and trainers have been deployed to fight in Ukraine and some have likely been killed in the conflict.
Russian forces are conducting training in Belarus due to a shortage of training staff, munitions and facilities in Russia. Deploying forces with little or no training provides little additional offensive combat capability.

The writer is probably struggling with finding ways to present his and other experts’ assumptions based on the facts presented and their knowledge and experience with militaries and diplomats in general and including Russia and its military in general without stating for certain bc they are not at every particular area or situation.
See what I did there? I do not know for certain but given the context and my appreciation of what is happening from my reading of the situation and seeing firsthand videos of the war, I can assume more probable than not ie “probably” & “likely” and because of my extensive studying of the conflict and reporting of same that I am correct.
This as opposed to some people who have a preconceived narrative of what is happening and search the bowels of YouTube and the poli board to confirm their bias or those writers who do the same.
Hope this helps!
