Ukraine will keep blowing up Russian oil refineries, they'll keep targeting their ships, and they'll keep blowing up Russian equipment.
Russia better hope they can keep production high while their oil money dries up.
Russia can "capture" all the villages it wants, but when the supply lines get cut to them, they can't keep them... and Ukraine does not need to send a large amount of troops to destroy the Kerch bridge, sink supply ships and barges crossing to Crimea, or obliterate railroad lines and roads. Especially if they do that all at once... in, say, the rainy season...

Official: Denmark to Send F-16s to Ukraine
https://www.flyingmag.com/denmark-to-donate-f-16s-to-ukraine/
quote:
In late March, Poulsen outlined that Denmark would be donating 19 F-16s to Ukraine, where officials have long sought access to the fighter jet in order to modernize its air force and improve its defense ability following Russia’s invasion in 2022.
The first F-16 aircraft are expected to be delivered to Ukraine this summer.

It's not like the Ukes were totally out of shells. More like they didn't know when they would get more. So they had each gun down to 10 or 12 rounds per day instead of 50 or 60.
Now that they know more are on the way they can begin increasing the fire rate immediately.

You could cut outr the middleman and instead of posting stuff from ZeroHedge just post the same stuff from Russia Today or the Kremlins daily email list.

Isn’t going to change anything. Can they learn to fly them in one day? What a waste of equipment

The bill for Americans to foot the bill of building Ukraine back better after the war is over will be amazing. Really.

You've been sleeping through the stories about Ukrainian pilots being trained in F-16s for the past year, eh?

Russian War Reparations will do that... I hear Russia has oil and natural gas, that could be managed by some other entity to make sure they pay the reparations.

Right now, Ukraine does not have a good way to destroy Kerch. They really need Taurus for that, and Germany isn't giving it.

Confirmation that Russian bases in Crimea will soon be feeling the heat, as long-range ATACMS will likely be in Ukraine by the weekend.

The Biden administration is preparing a new aid package for Ukraine that is expected to be worth around $1 billion, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CNN, and is set to be approved by President Joe Biden after the Senate passes a new foreign aid funding bill as soon as Tuesday afternoon.
In briefings to Congress in recent weeks, administration officials have indicated that the US will likely send Ukraine long-range ATACMS, or Army Tactical Missile Systems, for the first time as part of the new aid package, three of the sources said.
Last fall the US first sent Ukraine the midrange variant of the ATACMS missile system, which can reach about 100 miles, while the longer-range version can reach as far as 190 miles.

How ironic.

They've been training for a while. As has been the case many times before, contractors for both flight and maintenance could easily be arranged.
The biggest thing they can do is to make a dent in those big glide bombers that are causing trouble on the front lines and in towns targeted.

No. But I'm so glad you thought of that? Have you considered emailing this information to NATO?
Because the F-16 training programs all over the world that have been full of Ukrainian pilots these past 8 months will be glad to know their efforts aren't in vain.

You're right. It has been wasted sitting in peaceful countries that weren't about to be invaded by Russia.
Good thing they're going to Ukraine where they won't be wasted much longer.
Thanks for your insight. Edgy. Really made me think.

It is reported that a substantial stockpile is in Poland waiting for Congress to get its act together.

It's so retarded that we report this in the press.
The first time the Russians should read about it is in their own damage control reports

That's why NATO countries need to use the seized Russian money. We already have what we need, and the congressional bill calls for $8 billion in seized Russian assets to be used exactly that way.
If we follow through with that, it will put pressure on European countries to do the same.
