Ukraine's major focus over the course of its offensive has been to take out Russian artillery and ammo depots. One of my bigger questions about the Ukrainian offensive is how well Russia can replace its artillery losses.
I guess this heavily depends on superior counter battery fire. It was mentioned recently that Russian officers complained that they didn't have enough counter battery capabilities and that Ukraine towed guns weren't too worried about Russian counter battery fire also.
Ukraine needs a big advantage in technology in that area.

Drones are taking a key role which brings up what will be the next generation of counter drone defenses. EMPs? Automated guns? Jamming before they are AI directed?
I wonder if the drones Iran et. al. are coming up with pose a threat to our shipping and specifically our military. This drone stuff is asymmetrical warfare at its' finest.

Invading Ukraine in 2022 and invading Poland in late 2023 are very different things.
Surely you can see that.

Ukraine is getting slaughtered. Anyone supporting Ukraine is delusional and fricking stupid.
The more support given to Ukraine only serves to kill more Ukrainians.
What you idiots don't understand is..... If Ukraine "wins", this will guarantee a nuclear response from Russia.
Y'all are fricking stupid and need to get ur head out of ur asses.
Russia has no interest in attacking us. Nothing happening in Europe is our problem. At the rate this country is going, we will be the 3rd strongest world power if we don't get our shite together.
frick Ukraine.

I am continually amazed at how upset some of you get over the fact that this thread is discussing an ongoing war. No one participating in this thread, including you, has any impact at all on what is happening geopolitically with Ukraine.
So why do you care what we choose to talk about? Who gives a shite if I follow and comment on a message board about a war, it makes zero difference in the real world. Grow up and stop telling me what I can and cannot talk about.
ETA: Two sides of the same coin.

Crazy how the two countries backed by Wagner want to support the military despite being tied to the region via shared currency and policy. It'd be like the prime minister of Italy getting overthrown, the EU saying if the president isn't restored they will intervene military and then Greece says not so fast we support the coup.

One thing that genuinely confuses me is the timing of the port attacks. I get WHY Russia is doing just not the WHEN.
The grain deal ended and Russia said if the West reconnected Russia to SWIFT they would renew the deal. Not even a day later they start these attacks. It effectively tossed away any chance of reopening those negotiations in a very short time frame. Even if a week or two had passed before those attacks started it would have made more sense to me then the next day. Because they will have to sue for peace at this point in hopes of getting back onto SWIFT and sanctions lifted now.

Russia is now doing it because it only inflicts more internal conflict in Africa as food prices soar because of the loss of grain shipments. The more internal conflict on the streets the better the odds of toppling Western aligned countries like Nigeria. Very strategic maneuver that our military & MIC is too stupid and slow to react too.

With all these stories starting to relate to grain again; I'm surprised oml hasnt surfaced to tell everyone his international food crisis call in October was indeed correct, just had the year wrong. You guys wait 2 more months

Russia wants ZERO part of Poland and they know it too. Briefly crossing their border with helicopters then quickly getting back across is the most they will do. Any other belief is just comical.
