March 10 (Reuters) - Meta Platforms will allow Facebook and Instagram users in some countries to call for violence against Russians and Russian soldiers in the context of the Ukraine invasion, according to emails seen by Reuters, in a temporary change to its hate speech policy.

Civil aviation isn't flying over Ukraine. What is the risk?
That statement was not so much a threat by Russia to shoot down planes or otherwise attack transportation. That was an effort by the Russians to paint Ukrainians as future terrorists that will use the weapons they receive to do such things.
They have already been pushing that idea a bit, painting Ukranians as terrorists, saying it is a bad idea to give them weapons.

The Russians haven't met any discernible objectives. That's not media spin
I think the Russians planned to be in Kyiv in 2-3 days. That didn't happen, then all the logistical frick ups happened because the invasion didn't go according to plan.
Instead they find themselves outside of a major city with motivated defenders despite shelling. Assaulting Kyiv and fighting street to street is not a situation Russia wants to find themselves in. The casualty count would skyrocket for them.

BREAKING: Russian military has been able to move forward in advance on Ukraine's capital of Kyiv.
Russia has forces near Hostomel Airport that have advanced to 3 miles from Kyiv city limits. Another northeast advance is 25 miles east of Kyiv.

Damn they couldn't come up with something better than that? I hope that's fake because if not it's sad.

So the optempo is getting to man and machine and accidents are happening. Or they've infiltrated MANPADS across the border.

If you're attacking a convoy, your first targets are the ones with the big antennas. Second targets are supply vehicles.
I mentioned a couple of times early in the thread general modern targeting tactics are to "shoot the funny stuff first".
As an example with Russia if you see a large group of T-72s and BMP and you see a single 8 wheeled vehicle then that is likely a BTR-80 and as you mentioned it likely has a larger "egg beater" antenna on the front meaning it is a R-149BMR command and control vehicle. While your 8 year old self says take out a tank the trained warrior caste angel on your shoulder says take out the head of the snake.
Besides command and control vehicles engineering assets should be high on the target value list as well. Russia has always run very lean on engineering vehicles and they are critical to mission capability in hostile AOs.
Side note if you see a BTR-80 with what looks like a house air conditioning compressor sitting where the gun turret should be you might be fricked. They are the NBC detection recon vehicles, I forget the nomenclature.

Violence and hate speech as long as it fits our political ideology. Got it.

You can't believe the propaganda about Ukraine guys.. Except for this. You can believe this. This is believable since it's not coming from us.

Canada was ride-or-die with us in the first two World Wars, let’s hope they will make a three-peat in the upcoming one.

A that effort put into sophisticated nextgen cyber propaganda and Vladislov the Soviet era holdover throws it out the window and comes up with the avian biowarfare gimmick.

I think tanks with explosive reactive armor are still relevent. The relief for us is the Russians semmingly lack that technology for the time being.
Russia has had ERA for a LONG time. An ERA is actually losing its usefulness as rounds are available to defeat it, the "lowly" Javelin has this capability. IIRC Russia removed ERA from some of the T90s because it had no benefit against Western munitions.
The "death" of the MBT has been predicted for a long time but I think they will end up being more like the A-10 than the battleship.
