Ukraine - Russia Conflict

so ? is US going to ban all those old stuff being sold in second hand market.
It might stop selling them to any countries found to be passing them on in bulk. Or it may restrict those two items from being sold in a given regional area.

gud luck with that, first controlling the used market is hard and second these are all basic stuff that is used by academics like students, restricting it will cause more damage to US than russian in long run.

These are more like arduino boards , if US restricts it they will improvise or move on to some thing. It will lead to chinese end up filling those product gaps.
 
Plinking of Russian military assets continues apace.

NVIDIA Jetson TX2 and Xilinx Zynq SoC.

I would build in a backdoor exploit instead personally. ;)
 
Talk about irresponsible government. How long before they black flag attack their own citizens to buy support for Putin's war.


Wow, Russia using parts from Ireland in Geran, that can surely be sanctioned. Can't even make their own carburettors. This is why Russian weapons cost more than some on this forum claim, they use all western parts, so there is no great cost saving from the lower prices in Russia.

Chieftains? how old are they?
Oy vey. Same as T62's.

This really sucks the US alone has hundreds of M1A2's in storage and thousands M1A1's.... ahhhh forget it.

I get it you just can't introduce over a hundred modern-ish western tanks quickly during the middle of a conflict without taking out personnel from the conflict. If US would have started training Ukrainians on M1's weeks before the war the frontlines would have looked a whole lot different right now.

Same with F-16's... Always late with the help.

Russia acknowledges only 6,000 deaths, this Russian study based solely on recorded mortalities, i.e. returned and buried bodies, calculates 50,000. This does not include bodies rotting in trenches or tank shells, or bodies that were bunged into mobile crematoriums, and it is a Russian study.
