Is there a Russian Coaching Changes Board helping them track flights?

It’s been a long time since we had an actual country vs country war and not some country fighting insurgents crap.
Probably what this will devolve into. Russian occupying force vs Ukrainian guerillas. But yeah I feel like the last country vs country war was US invading Iraq.

Looks like that Global Hawk circled around and is now working in the northern Black Sea.


That eye in the sky presents the Russians with a dilemma. Obviously they don't want us watching them, but as long as it's in international airspace or over a country who gives it permission to be there, shooting it down it's an act of war.

Sky News Live coverage stream YouTube

Rewind a minute or two and they talk about the claim of shooting down a plane.

Really not since Iran/Iraq have we had a full blown country v country war. No alliances. Just grip it and rip it.

Methinks maybe they should turn off that transponder so flightaware doesn't know where it is


They want everybody to know exactly were it is. It's as much a statement as anything else. I'm sure there are other assets of a more clandestine nature.

I’m talking with some Chinese and people who lived in China with me, and they’re thinking this should be war if China does this to Taiwan. That’s the next big step. 95% of people have no idea how much Taiwan affects their lives. I doubt WWIII will be started over Ukraine, but it might over Taiwan.
