It’s virtuous… as much courage as possible without falling into the category of being foolhardy. The way the Ukrainians are fighting for their country has left me with a sense of awe. I was thinking of a scene from Battlestar Galactica where it was looking grim for Galactica during an insane rescue attempt season 3 and the Battlestar Pegasus comes in at the last second to save the day. It would be something if we could be Pegasus right now, to see our military go in and just start knocking the shit out of Russia. I know it won’t happen and the risks are too incredible to fathom, but damn I wish we could help them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 The Ukrainians are claiming that the Russian incursion along Peremohy Avenue into the Kyiv city center has been repulsed. In addition, they are claiming that an attempted Russian airborne landing in the southeastern city of Nikolaev was also repulsed. At this point, if there is any grain of truth to what the Ukrainians are claiming, I'm going to clearly state that Russia is ACTUALLY LOSING this war on both a strategic and tactical level. Quite frankly, EVERYTHING the Russians have done so far seems ill-conceived, poorly-planned, totally half-assed in execution, or some combination thereof. And long may it continue! 1 2 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 The very fact that the words "Ukrainian air strike" can even be written at this stage of the operation speaks VOLUMES about the overall Russian military performance so far. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Air_Delivery Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Is Russia showing us that tanks are the new battleships as in they are completely obsolete in modern warfare? I feel like they are just too big bulky, costly and vunerable to infantry fired anti tank weaponry to be effective on anything other than giant open flat fields.

Tanks are ABSOLUTELY obsolete in modern warfare which is why the US Army is gradually trying to get out of the heavy armor business, just as the USMC already has.

SuperSpreader Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 It's crazy how in these videos I can't see the fights at all, like if I was a soldier I'd get spawn camped and not know what happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that’s pretty much how combat works in 90% of scenarios. Modern soldiers can almost never actually see what they’re shooting at.

SaysWho? Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Appreciate Wade's updates. I'm not as well-versed on warfare and strategy in Europe, so this has been an interesting and helpful read.
