Navalny with Girkin

Ah. Fingers crossed.

No need for Moscow. These can take down that bloody Kerch bridge

We should thanks if the Germans and the F-16 donors allow Ukraine to bomb Russian airfields inside Russia.

More aircrafts are coming down this last few days, what have changed? Does Ukraine have new anti aircraft systems?

Probably the same, but Russia is pushing in their offensive to make a present of blood, meat and bones to Putin's reelection, so they're getting their fighter bombers to the frontline, and to operate them, you have to switch off EW interdiction so now those green blips and blops in Ukraine's radars are clear as a blue sky.

I read somewhere that the new German patriot system is more mobile (launchers directly mounted on trucks?) and it could be that system which they are using.

That or maybe some secret F16s?

It's a guess but i believe that the Russians are taking more risk with their tactical aviation closer to the front lines to support the recent offensives. Let see how this will develop in the mud season.

I feel a little dirty making the joke but they are invading another country sooooooo.

I'm imagining the guy who fired the missile sitting there looking around as all he starts hearing is.

I can only hope this video makes it's rounds among the Russian people, so they can learn what is expecting them in Ukraine.

All the guys in charge lie to each other, they even seem to believe their own lies and no one really knows what exactly is going on. If that video ever gets played in russia it'll be made out it's the ukraine soldiers becoming holier than the pope.

LOL. Seems like foreign currency reserves have dried up, so Russia can't prop up the Ruble's value.

So Russia had 9 A-50s before they started the invasion. Now they have 7.
And each costs $330 million.

 

[Nonehxc]

They're also saying they got(AGAIN) its escort, the IL-22 C&C plane.

Theres two hits in the video so might be likely.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Russian ruble, go f--k yourself!

Interestingly, the Ruble/USD exchange was around 70-75 : 1 before the war.

War happens, and the Ruble got nailed weakening to around 125 : 1.

Then it went on fire strengthening to around 55 : 1 by the summer of 2022

Since then, it's slowly weakened to about 90-95 :1

Talk about volatility!

 

[Nonehxc]

Dunno, those are flares/chaff in the video and the first missile probably got a lock-on on the A-50 countermeasures.

I swear I can feel the panic of the copilot when the lock-on alarm starts and he starts fucking down the red countermeasures button like 'BlyatBlyatBlyatBlyat ' until he breaks it into the console, and when he releases it, the button with the spring goes out like 'POIINNNGGGGGG'

 

[Liljagare]

So Russia had 9 A-50s before they started the invasion. Now they have 7.
And each costs $330 million.

And four are downed for repairs/missing parts.

 

[Darius87]

that was russsian air defense s200 or s300 who downed a-50 plane this is historical proportion of f*** up.


idk if true but yet another su-34 kaputed

Yeah that video makes it more clear.
Imagine the frantic radio calls from those guys up there.

Yeah.

I wonder what happened to that dude.

 

[Liljagare]

At Luleå Airport in the north of . The policies of Putin do produce results.

A US B1 strategic bomber in Northern Sweden. Quite an achievement even by Putin standards.

What air defence doing?

 

[Lunarorbit]

Read this is the first time that a us bomber has parked in Sweden.

You think this is a show of force like when the US and Taiwan thumb their nose at China and do military exercises together?

Or is it a nato celebration? Or both

Impressive that Ukraine is able to bring the fight inside Russia, despite all the problems they are facing.

Would have been better if it was a c17 full of ammunition for ukraine, but screw keeping their word instead have a look at our cool bomber over here.

Oleg Petrenko:

Summary for the morning of February 25.

Bakhmut direction: there are battles for the fortified area between Bogdanivka and the Valyanivka railway station. Added gray area [to his map]
In Ivanivske, Russian troops continue to try to dislodge the Ukrainian Armed Forces garrison from the eastern part of the village. North of Ivanovske the enemy presses в направлении высоты 195 [i don’t understand what he means]. Another gray zone added.
Avdiivka front: the Armed Forces of Ukraine withdrew from Lastochkino, the village is under the control of Russian troops. Advance of the enemy—3.8 km wide, 1.2 km deep. [Note other sources say Russians flanked, cutting off supplies lines, withdrew to save personnel.]
Enemy infantry continues to press—in the Stepove area, west of the coke plant, in the Severne area, and in Pervomaiske.
Kurakhove [Mariinka]: the enemy is not abandoning attempts to dislodge the Ukrainian Armed Forces garrison from the eastern part of Georgievka.
Krynki: No changes. The intensity of hostilities has decreased. Mutual artillery shelling and air bomber operations continue.

This is a amazing read, we now know, that the initial delays to 40 mile convoy were done by a specialist forest combat unit of only 30 commandos, led by Ukrainian Col Yaroslav Honchar. They used quad bikes to move fast in the swampy forest. They had night vision gear & drones.

Battle of Kyiv and Hostomel with verified tweets in chronological order, creds to Tomi Ahonen:

It really is a testament to how badass, brave & tactically smart the Ukrainians are and how utterly incompetent and stupid the Russians are that for such a small country they where able to halt the Russians and hurt them hard, imagine what they could do if we in the West fully supported them, it's a fucking shame that there are certain useful idiots within America that are actively working with the Russians and history will not look favourably upon them, shower o cunts that they are.
