Ukrainian industry looks to be getting on its feet even at a small production rate. They are producing their own MRAP called the Inguar-3. Good looking vehicle. One thing is for sure, the Ukrainians have a lot better style than the Russians. It looks to be a more lightweight MRAP compared to ours but that’s most likely by design due to Ukraine’s bad roads and muddy seasons.

You guys just amaze me.
People like you don't amaze me at all. Throughout history, whenever any tyrannical government has arisen, there are worshippers of the evil, those who see the power and want some of it for themselves.
"Freedom" means weakness to such minds. It prevents the true unity of a nation, they think. And how can true greatness be achieved when a country is divided in its opinions?
No, I understand your type perfectly. You amaze me not in the slightest.

There are plenty of tyrannical governments throughout the world......why arent we spending 113 billion fighting them. Pick a spot, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Somalia, Sudan, South Sudan...ah nevermind most of Africa, Yemen, Burma.
Go ahead fight them all....you have any idea why we dont, because they cant be trusted to give kickbacks once they get "funding".
Your obsession with Russia, and your need to project your sexual tendencies on to anyone who wants this to stop, is not healthy.
Its over, everyone knows it, pissing away more money on it will not solve anything, just like Afghanistan.

Oh, Ukraine lost again?
Odd, as they destroyed the Russian Black Sea fleet and maintain air parity.

Body of Mother Found Still Holding 4-Month-Old Son in Odesa
Photos of the victims began appearing on social networks not long after the attacks.
by Kyiv Post | March 3, 2024
Odesa mourned Sunday (March 2) as emergency workers uncovered more bodies following a Russian-launched overnight attack Saturday where Iranian-made Shahed drones hit a high-rise building destroying 18 apartments and damaging another seven.
“The number of victims of the Russian drone attack has increased to nine. The body of a dead woman is currently being unblocked,” Head of the Odesa Regional Military Administration Oleh Kiper posted on Telegram at 9:18 a.m. on Sunday.
Then at 9:39 a.m., the next post by Kiper showed that the number had increased to ten: “Next to the woman's body, the body of another dead baby has just been found…Rescuers continue to dismantle the debris.”

It’s not for the best, but Russia will eventually come out on top. Hopefully a peace deal will come sooner than later and Russia will almost certainly walk away with more territory than it had before. That’s just the way it’s going to be and anyone that thinks otherwise are just fooling themselves.
I don’t think Russia will “come out on top” though. They’ll have more land but less men, less international prestige, less trade, less money, etc.
Within 5-10 years of the end of this conflict, Ukraine will get into the EU, and the average GDP per capita will be higher in Ukraine than in Russia.
It’s the EU Putin fears, not NATO. It’s hard to sustain a kleptocracy when people who speak the same language are thriving while your country languishes.

None of them are in any way an existential threat to the United States, as you well know.

Pretending that you are concerned about money, rather than openly supporting Russian evil, is debasing to you. You should be open about your desire and support of the tyranny.

British Defence Intelligence
INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 03 March 2024
The average daily number of Russian casualties (killed and wounded) in Ukraine throughout February 2024 was the highest rate it has been, since the start of the war, at 983 per day.
The increase in the daily average almost certainly reflects Russia's commitment to mass and attritional warfare. Although costly in terms of human life, the resulting effect has increased the pressure on Ukraine's positions across the frontline.
To date, Russia has highly likely lost over 355,000 personnel killed and wounded during the Ukraine war.

Russians reduce military aviation activity in Ukraine after significant loss of aircraft
VALENTYNA ROMANENKO — Sunday, 3 March 2024, 13:34
The activity of Russian aircraft over Ukraine has decreased, and long-range radar detection aircraft A-50 has not appeared near the Ukrainian border in a week.
Source: Lieutenant General Mykola Oleshchuk, Commander of Ukraine's Air Force, on Telegram; Yurii Ihnat, spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Force, in a comment to Ukrainska Pravda
Details: On the evening of 2 March 2024, following reports of the shooting down of another Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber (in the morning), the intensive work to down two Russian aircraft, a Su-34 and a Su-35, and eventual shooting down of another Su-34, screenshots appeared on Oleshchuk's Telegram channel with the message that there are currently no Russian aircraft over the occupied territory of Ukraine (only reconnaissance drones are in operation).
On 3 March, Yurii Ihnat, spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Force, confirmed to Ukrainska Pravda that the Russians had clearly reduced their use of aircraft on various fronts. This is not the first time this has happened since the full-scale war began, but it is the result of Ukrainian Air Force's recent effective combat work.
For a week after Ukraine's Armed Forces downed a Russian A-50 long-range radar detection aircraft, no such Russian aircraft has been detected near the Ukrainian border.
Quote Ihnat: "Western partners' countermeasures provided to Ukraine have proven effective. This is evident from the number of enemy aircraft shot down in February. The priority now is to protect the frontline territories from the enemy's use of guided aerial bombs."

This is a pretty good analysis of things as they sit and going forward.
Germany was winning on the battlefield when it surrendered in WWI.
Russia has used a lot of stored artillery, especially its mobile artillery and most of what remains is WWII era artillery.
Russian tank and armored vehicle production is around 125 tanks and 250 IFVs per month. 80% from old stock or repaired battlefield damaged equipment.
Russia's state owned naval shipyard company went bankrupt only to be taken over by a state owned bank. Robbing Peter to pay Peter.

This doesn't mean much without a comparison to how many Ukraine is losing.

Just to spell this out in more detail:
- Despite promising to reduce the national debt, the debt instead grew by $7.8 trillion under President Trump.
- The absolute fraud in Trump's COVID relief programs amounted to over $280 billion ( LINK), while another $123 billion was wasted or misspent.
And now we have these absolutely idiotic Trump supporters pretending that we can't afford to rebuild our own military and defense industrial base while defeating a strategic enemy ... because they care so much about precious taxpayer dollars.
HAVE YOU NO SHAME? No, of course not. Y'all are liars and frauds, all of you. You support Putin because you hate freedom and lust for power. Pretending that it's because you think that we can't afford it is disgusting and grotesque.

Don't expect or even ask for an answer from this guy. He's lost it.
This time last year he was telling everyone about how Ukraine was about to split the Russian forces and set the stage for Ukraine victory in the spring offensive. He's clueless.
He's an idiot. Expect the opposite of anything he says.

You spend more time attacking Trump than you do Biden. It's despicable.

Ukraine needs to get it’s Patriot PAC-2 missiles replenished though because they are running dangerously low. There’s reports of launchers with only a couple missiles in them because of rationing.
