Weak. No, we have a political board for that

Despite the fact that Ukraine only received 16 HIMARS by the 1st of October 2022, Russia miraculously claims the destruction of 19 HIMARS and the capture of another by that date. To provide evidence of the destruction of two HIMARS, the Russian MoD released footage of a precision missile strike against the second floor of a three-story office building, a rather unconvincing hiding place for truck-based rocket launchers.

Impossible they showed a video of a missle hitting the 2nd floor of a building as proof

I’m not military. But I would guess they are currently using them at close to maximum range. When U decides to take either Kherson or savote I would guess they may chance it and put them in a measured degree of danger.

Some of the Russian MoD fails have been great. But I think the one that takes the cake is when they staged a picture of a Nazi Ukrainian stash in Russia. Of course the memo said they needed to have some SIM cards but when the photo got stagged

Ukraine has started 2 factories producing 122 mm and 152 mm artillery shells. This has been the biggest worry on the Ukrainian side is their lack of ammunition for their howitzers not necessarily the lack of the guns themselves. This gives them ammunition for their Soviet era guns which still make up the bulk of their artillery so this is a very big deal that they finally are producing their own artillery ammunition again.

Which verifies one of his points; if you are in a certain group you are automatically wrong.

It appears they are running out of Russians and are accepting degenerates, criminals and they are drafting more and more men to fill the ranks.

That's awesome news. Do you have a link?

Nope. The soviets spent themselves into poverty.
Kind of like we are doing right now.
Reagan did win it. His strategy was to attack Russia's economic weakness and forced them to spend until nothing left. He also got the Saudis to keep oil production up so that any Russian oil sales would be at a loss. Part of this was supporting rebels around the globe, Afghanistan being only one.
You are saying that Biden is playing the Reagan game?

Not that big of a deal. If the USA gets involved in a war where it really needs artillery it’s going to be with Russia, China, or North Korea. We would not be going to war alone in those situations we can raid our allies stockpiles until the arsenal of democracy kicks in.

They are also getting shells from Romania and Bulgaria.

I was wondering if Ukraine can do what Israel did over decades. Israel would be smaller per the UN partition plan if the Arabs had not of kept attacking it.
Russia should have taken at how its weaponry didn't work so well vs Israel.

The railway line has turned into a single track, you can’t ride on the second one. Two spans will have to be dismantled. It is planned to restore them on September 15, 2023
Some how or another this little tid bit of information got missed yesterday. Very limited or no rail traffic across the Crimean Bridge until September of next year at the earliest. That’s gotta hurt the Russian logistics efforts especially since winter weather will make the ferry even more unreliable. I wonder if the pro-Russian posters still think this was a failed attack?

Likely the one rail track serviceable is limited in weight restriction. Once again, that is stress relieved steel.

I've only seen a couple of posters that backed Russia on here unfortunately anyone that isn't lock in step behind Ukraine or that dares to question the money we send over are immediately labeled Putin supporters.
I think it's great that Ukraine hasn't let Russia run all over them but everyone knows if Russia really really wanted to end Ukraine they have the nukes to do it. I hope it never comes to that but pushing a mad man in a corner may end up being the end all for Ukraine.

I'm not going to post all the pictures from this thread but it's worth a look

Russia is preparing to lose the city of Kherson and the whole left bank of the Dnieper. They are currently getting ready to defend the right bank of the river.
In this thread, I will show you what this preparation looks like using satellite images and other resources
The Russians are currently building three lines of trenches and bunkers on the right side of the Dnieper. These defensive positions use natural and artificial barriers such as the Dnieper River and the numerous canals in the Kherson region.
As you can see on the map above and this satellite image, they are even building trenches on the Black Sea coast!
These defensive lines consist of trenches supported by buried positions for armored fighting vehicles. This image is of the town of Hola Prystan'.
Similar defenses can be found on all three lines and along most of the length of the right bank of the Dnieper.
This is what most of the positions along the right bank of the Dnieper look like. Two rows of trenches and positions for vehicles.
In places where it is difficult to dig trenches, Russia has deployed prefabricated "bunkers". I doubt very much the efficiency of these cement boxes... This picture, for example, was reportedly taken in Kakhovka.
However, in some places, the Russians have created impressive defensive positions. On the third line of defense, 18 kilometers from the Dnieper, this defensive position was recently created. This position consists of three different defensive lines plus a canal!

The problem is that they are economically illiterate. They confuse accounting procedures of transfer of armaments from storage (which costs money to store) with actual money being spent.
They have also swallowed hook, line and sinker, that Ukraine has all those biolabs, everyone was going to freeze in Europe this winter. etc...
