'We will keep killing Russians,' Ukraine’s military intelligence chief vows
Maj. Gen. Kyrlo Budanov believes that Russia’s supply of missiles are running low, almost to the point of exhaustion. “They are trying to accumulate certain stocks and have them ready in order to try to disrupt our offensive, but the truth is that they have taken their stocks almost to zero.”
Nope, I also said they are meant to harrass the enemy. They stay there firing ATGMs and act as artillery spotters. Once things get hairy, they pick up their stuff and leave. The fact that they still take casualties even when they have the option of retreating means they fight until the very last moment.
No, they are not. The Nazis are the only ones with militias in Ukraine, such a thing is an impossibility is actual democracies. There are literally political parties with their own armies, and the armies are under a group similar to the SS.

Lol, they actually do. And they are using some of it already.
And no, there were no Patriots near the border. Ukraine has plenty of other air defences of their own.
Yeah, war is hell and stuff. Nah, a lot of people looking forward to this are the Independence Day "the last 24 hours have been very exciting" kinda people, even if they mean well.
This is a massive litmus test for Western armour though. This counteroffensive will fail, then the Russians will continue to make progress on the field until the next offensive is launched. And that will be the ultimate test for Western armour, because it will be supported by air power. Plus it will be a lot more closer to the Ukrainian rear areas, so easier logistics.
What's more, a lot of the troops trained for the offensive are still green, ie, NATO made sure all the volunteer recruits had no prior military training, so they could train them from scratch in NATO doctrine, and they have been doing well. Yeah, they are getting killed, but the survivors are reacting well, and they are from the best brigades. So the same survivors will have far more experience during the next offensive, and that will significantly even out the skill gap with the Russians.

Wow, that's some serious copium skills on display.
The other side has 2000 tanks and half a million men around. The Ukrainian offensive has 500+ tanks and 30-50k men at best.
NSFW, shows 19 UAF dead. Some with bodies torn off at the end. No blood though, so it's not squeamish.
So the way the Russian tactic works, already explained in the tweet, they harrass the enemy in the beginning, fight for some time and then retreat to the next defensive line. One UAF troops occupy these new positions, they are exposed to artillery, 'cause a lot of defensible fortifications are booby-trapped and have to be disarmed, which takes time. Once caught out in the open, Russian artillery makes mincemeat out of UAF troops, and then the Russians move back in and repeat the process, as shown in the video.
This was done across the entire Kharkiv frontline last year. The Russians stayed around Kharkiv until all the structures were leveled by the Ukrainians, then they retreated back into Russia. Once the Ukrainians left their fortifications and entered the empty areas, they were received by Russian artillery. Then Ukr troops had to retreat and the Russians re-entered Kharkiv.
So the same tactic is being repeated across the frontline right now.

Russians are slowly grinding the ukranians , a large scale war suits them as they can face the enemy directly and they can match weapons for weapons. They will lay the trap , withdraw and then bombard incoming ukranian force.
Things would have been totally different if ukranians had fought a guerilla war where they could have harassed russians more effectively .
Conflict In Ukraine Spurs New Demand For Patriot Systems (Updated)
Raytheon aims to increase production of Patriot to 12 systems annually in to try to meet demand, with Ukraine becoming a major customer.

5 more Patriot batteries is a start. But late 2024 is really late.
Indian media? That's from Dr. Tessy Thomas, Project Director of Agni 5. She knows what she is talking about:

India has operational DEW in form of HPM for quite some time. Laser Weapons which destroy drones from 2 kms away are already deployed. Very soon more powerful ones are coming online. Watch this space.
We have.
Their air force can do jack against India. India-China is going to be a primary land/border war decided by the land forces. And India has all the advantages there. Indian Air Force need not to engage PLAAF directly, just support IA and blunt their attack and we're good.
Our PM Modi already said that this isn't era of war. We are neutral in this war and pursuing our interests. If you are so butthurt over it then it's your problem not ours.
The current UAF pushes are too small. They need to coordinate multiple brigades for a single push instead of such small company-sized attacks. I'm not sure when that will happen. But the risk here is those brigades can easily get annihilated due to battlefield transparency, so small attacks are the go-to tactic for UAF. UAF needs air defences and air power if they wish to protect their brigades.
Anyway, the river near the nuclear plant has dried up quite a bit. Ukraine can use that to launch an offensive across the river. That could become a huge turning point in the war.
Paywall, and garbage anyway. No ICBM has single-digit accuracy, not that it would even make a difference. You would need MARV(s) and terminal guidance as a minimum, and there's no mention of that. The gyro itself might have metric precision, just as the LGM-118 did, but once warheads are released ballistically and re-enter the atmosphere, errors of tens of metres will happen.
HPM has been around for a while. 2kW isn't a weapon.
Where.
No, of course not. Their air force can't do anything to your army. You are doomed with that thinking.
Means absolutely nothing. May as well have stated that his toilet paper is brown.
Neutral over illegality.
'Had' 500k men.
They're harassing them with the smell of their rotting corpses now.
They are not mainstream.No, they are not. The Nazis are the only ones with militias in Ukraine, such a thing is an impossibility is actual democracies. There are literally political parties with their own armies, and the armies are under a group similar to the SS.

Quick, Russia needs denazification:
Haha...I knew it. It's hard for a Westerner to accept hor far India has advanced in missile tech. Dude, the project director for Agni 5 doesn't lie. India has achieved what very can. Single digit CEP for an ICBM. Continue to live in denial, we don't care.
We've also reportedly 30KW laser weapon operational in Naval Ships.
You shall soon find out
We are not scared of the Chinese army or air force. You are free to believe whatever you like.No, of course not. Their air force can't do anything to your army. You are doomed with that thinking.
For you maybe. We are pursuing our interests. The End.
I see no record of MARV or terminal guidance anywhere for the Agni V. The AIRS system in the Peacekeeper had metric accuracy but once ballistically released there's no way to account for or compensate air turbulence and wind on re-entry. it's quite possible the guidance system itself has single-digit accuracy but that doesn't equate to single digit CEP.
Advanced Inertial Reference Sphere - Wikipedia
That drift per hour yields metric accuracy over 14,000km if you do the maths, but the end CEP was still 40m, which is enough with a 300kT warhead because the crater is much bigger than that.

Whoopdeedoo. Seagulls are on heightened alert.
Yeah right. Like with the Indian stealth fighters you've been talking about since 2010?You shall soon find out
That's the problem right there.
