If this pressure keeps building, the Russians in the south are going to be left with very few good options. They can stand and fight, knowing they can’t be resupplied, evacuated, or given medical care. They can try to run, which would open the door for the AFU to push through. Or they can attempt a strategic withdrawal but even that won’t solve their resupply problem.

I believe the next few months are going to be critical. If the current trends continue, we could see a general collapse of Russian support lines in the south. That kind of pressure, combined with the constant aerial bombardment, could lead to a full breakdown of Russian forces in the region.

At that point, it may become very attractive for the Ukrainians to cross the Dnieper or conduct a landing across the Black Sea. If they can bypass the main defensive lines, I don’t think the Russians will have much left to stop them.

I don't think we will have to wait for "the next few months" and I don't believe the Ukrainians will have to cross the Dnieper to drive the Russians out. And a substantial amphibious assault on Crimea would have far too much risk due to it's complexity.

I believe the Russians start moving south once their resupply gets critically bad. That's the timeline - when the Russians start running out of food, ammo, fuel and artillery / drone support, mobilization or not, they will start to rabbit.

Probably good advice honestly.

Pretty interesting stuff here. Historically innovations that allow light infantry to be able to maneuver more quickly and efficiently have resulted in big tactical advantages on the battlefield.

The British army reforming their light infantry tactics under Sir John Moore and others helped lay the foundation that helped beat Napoleon at Waterloo.

There is no "development" in infantry of being supplied by farming drones. They are large, slow, noisy, and they get shot down at a very high rate. Your infantry will be starving, dehydrated and rationing every bullet.


Nothing new here, everyone knows that during WW2, the Soviets were using drones to resupply the troops.

Consider the 'source'. You're referencing a discredited Russian doomer.

There is no "development" in infantry of being supplied by farming drones. They are large, slow, noisy, and they get shot down at a very high rate. Your infantry will be starving, dehydrated and rationing every bullet.

There has to be a logistical chain and a field for launching these drones with packaged food, if that node gets hit by a bomber or missile than all your field groups are starving and without any meaningful supplies.


Small, highly mobile groups mean you would have multiple smaller nodes to launch supplies from. The entire benefit of this is that you gain a decentralized supply chain that's actually less likely to be interrupted. A truck with a weeks worth of supplies being hit can be critical, a drone with 2-3 days worth fan be replaced immediately with little supply interruption.

The economics of war have completely changed and Ukraine has done a great job of making the conflict as much about those economics as possible since they have the backing of dozens of economies vs Russia only being able to consistently rely on themselves (and yes China/NK sporadically). Ukriane can't go man for man with Russia but they might be able to go dollar for dollar.

And they aren't going to be moving constantly, they just need the ability to move more quickly in a short time span to gain effectiveness.

A social turmoil,” “all minor and major Ukrainian towns,” and especially “subsist in denial” are not native English constructions. They are literal, awkward translations from a Slavic language.

So what brings a native Slavic-language speaker to an American college football website, where his entire posting history consists of defending Russia in the Ukraine thread?

The U.S. has authorized an immediate emergency package of PAC-3 Patriot interceptor missiles for Ukraine, with President Zelenskyy confirming delivery within the coming days

Wow, someone here is going to be upset.
