It seems that some of the 100 newly promised Bradleys have arrived at the front lines:
EDIT: The embedded tweet suggests that Ukraine has regained lost positions, and we really don't know that. We just know that the positions in the attack videos were comfortably in Russian hands last month, and now we see Ukrainians attacking them. My point isn't about the territory, but rather that the new aid is emboldening Ukraine to do counterattacks like this.

They need to equip 2 or 3 more Bradley brigades. The 47th can’t be expected to do it all and the Ukrainians really love the Bradley and you’re right, it gives them a big morale boost anytime one is on the battlefield. I would t send another tank but I would pull a couple hundred more Bradley’s out of storage and get them ready. We have thousands of them.

Has the Kharkiv offensive weakened Ukraine enough to allow Russia to breakthrough in the Dumbass yet?

I bet Scholz stood there and pissed his pants when Putin told him that.

Only a few of these will be delivered in 2024, but this is still a very important move to insure that Ukraine will eventually get the airframes it needs.

WSJ: Russia aims to produce 6,000 Shahed-type drones a year in Tatarstan
by Kateryna Hodunova May 28, 2024 1:51 PM
Russia plans to produce 6,000 Shahed-type drones per year, in addition to surveillance drones, at the Alabuga Special Economic Zone in Tatarstan, The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported on May 28, referring to a contract leaked by the Prana Network hacker group.
Russia aims to reach the production level of 6,000 Shahed attack drones a year at the Alabuga facility, while the factory was already ahead of its production schedule in April, the WSJ said. It has produced 4,500 Shaheds, according to the International Institute for Strategic Studies.
Russian personnel are currently learning to operate the drones in Syria with instructors from both the Revolutionary Guard and Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah, according to Ukraine's military intelligence and a former Syrian officer with conflict-monitor group Etana.

85 F16s with trained crews will end the war. There is now a time-limit for Russia to negotiate on favorable terms.

I disagree, they will help Ukraine, but it still takes combat power on the ground to win a war.

I think they have it (or would have it) but can’t use it because they get fricked up by helicopters and long-range launches from aircraft deep inside Russia on infrastructure.
85 F16s would take helicopters out of the equation and also grind down Russian artillery.
If Russia is barely winning now, they will be losing once those arrive.

If the war is really over and Russia is close to breaking through the Ukraine lines, why is Russia planning on making 6,000 drones a year? It seems to me that the war is still a stalemate.
Ukraine gets more Western help, improves their domestic armaments, and Russia counters with help from their friends and ftom their domestic industry.
