500 good dogs posted:if things were going poorly for Russia I don't think they'd be holding back as much Yeah I keep seeing footage of a handful of Russians just chilling somewhere. No vast tank columns or whatever. Even the missiles/air combat seems pretty sporadic. Think of the footage over Baghdad in 03 compared to any footage I've seen of Ukrainian cities. It feels like Russians are still probing. Which is good maybe this whole mess will end without the usual vast civilian death toll.

That in turn threatens the capital and to cut off the east, where by most accounts the Ukrainians have been putting up an effective resistance.

It isn't an accident that every other movie released by hollywood is some imbecilic drek that is based on a super hero franchise from the 70's or a toy franchise from the 80's, except all the heroes are now friends with the US MIC or CIA for some reason.

The Russians are absolutely holding back. The amount of ordnance they could throw around beggars belief, but they let that airhead get dispersed rather than flatten anything that moved around it. Which is good, I suppose, the VDV men knew what they signed up for, the Ukrainian civilians anywhere near that airport did not.

Goast posted:anyone know the size estimates on the apparent attempted airdrop? paradrop operations being repulsed doesn't necessarily result in 100% casualties/prisoners, because they can just run off into the forests and hide out (and maybe become partisans) it does usually mean that they're no longer a combat-effective force, but unless it's a small enough area that you're absolutely surrounded, you can just run away and hide

Raskolnikov38 posted:30 helicopters worth is the reported number but who knows how many were troop transports and how many were gunships So maybe a Battalion+. It’s a setback, for sure, but even then a comparatively small force compared to what they might’ve gone for. They haven’t been dropping BMDs or anything crazy.

Ukraine says they are destroying bridges to stop the advance on Kyiv. Ivankiv is about halfway between Pripyat and Kyiv. https://twitter.com/ChristopherJM/status/1497078711903997988?s=20&t=9LSTLiJy0EYKVuqWtV4d9g also crossover influencer has decided that his beat is more than just Cuba https://twitter.com/ShinjiTheCuban/status/1497073394256334895?s=20&t=9LSTLiJy0EYKVuqWtV4d9g

I’m surprised they haven’t been landing detachments to seize all those bridges for an end run.

Other than a few cruise missiles, Russia’s bomber force has been restrained too. Some of those Tupolevs can carry an absurd amount of SSMs and ARMs. Maybe they’ll hammer Kievs air defence when the tank columns push closer, but they haven’t exactly been dumping ordnance on it tonight.

I'm honestly surprised at how relatively easy Russia has taken this so far. If they get mad or frustrated they might go full Syria/Chechnya where they scorch earth everything.
