Ukraine advancing on Moscow is so far fetched we might as well be speculating about the Lunar front of the Russo-Ukrainian war. I also don't think Ukrainian strikes on Moscow are a good idea because they have only a handful (if any) of weapons capable of reaching out that long, and these would probably be better spent on other targets. Strikes on Moscow would make the Russians absolutely lose their loving minds but I don't think that would have any real life effect. They can't escalate any further without dropping nukes, and they probably aren't dumb enough to do that.

How is that remotely a strawman? In both scenarios, one country started a conflict in another country and wouldnt have stopped unless thoroughly trounced.

A land invasion of Moscow is absolutely fever dream clancy chat. Precision strikes into it? I'm not so sure because citizens of Moscow are one of the very few groups that Russian leadership even has a slight care for it. Repeated military target strikes in Moscow will make any narrative about victory or things going as planned / it's difficult but we're getting there significantly harder to pull off. Basically it's a psy-op to the people who actually can make a difference in changing the minds of the political elite. But I think you're right in that it might not make a real difference.

The Vietnamese did not have to do a single thing to the main-land US in order to win. Russia is losing men and material daily while support for Ukraine is steady. Why would Ukraine jeopardize that with a land-invasion of Russia? Like, it's one thing to argue that if Russia starts really going crazy with ammo/fuel dumps riiiiight close to the border which are contributing to logistics that they can be seen as legitimate targets and quite another to start fantasizing about Ukraine somehow managing to threaten/control a territory even a third the size of Russia's. This entire line of argument feels very fever-dream Clancy-chat-esque.

You can also be sure as poo poo that some psycho russians in the Duma want Ukraine to do something and hope that the drone crashes into a block of flats or something. The more that Ukraine doesn't do poo poo outside of its borders/nearby airfields, the more the russian government look like chumps that China isn't going to do poo poo for.

These are not the same wars, and there are not the same war or political objectives or considerations. Ukraine is fighting a defensive war. This is not a total war. No, once Russia is booted out of Ukraine they simply won't be able to invade again. (This was their last chance to conquer Ukraine because demographics and moving away from oil are going to gently caress them) Ukraine is explicitly turning into the Israel of Europe after all this (IE: It's economy and objective is being a security state for the region) Not to mention the allied forces had competing objectives of carving up germany and the west wanted to contain russian expansion as they became their political main competitor at the end of WW2.

Hitting the Kherson bridge with those drones seems like a better use, wouldn't even matter if it causes any physical damage as it would piss off the Russian higher ups. Get 2 drones, one loaded with blue paint and one with yellow then see how far you can get down the bridge spreading the paint

Vietnam and the us arent fuckin neighbours and it takes a lot more resources to ship people and equipment across the pacific loving ocean than next door.

I want to reiterate that yeah, a land invasion of Moscow is absolutely fever-dream Clancychat and honestly I think should be banned outright because it's so far fetched. Russia would be in a state of absolute internal collapse at that point. But I don't think Vietnam is a perfect parallel. Media propaganda and culture of the US vs Russia is way different. Tactical strikes into Moscow disrupts Russian narratives very hard. They can't keep putting out press releases of "unfortunate smoking accidents" forever as an example.

Tiny Timbs posted:Oh there is absolutely zero moral hazard to Ukraine striking back against Russian leadership. The idea that there would be seems crazy to me. As a practical issue, I just don't see Ukraine as being capable of actually pulling off any serious damage. I assume it's just to let Russia know that they can't hide at all, and poke more holes in the narrative that Russia can defend itself. If I were in Moscow, and I was consuming the propaganda and thinking "yeah, that WOULD ruin the potato" and Ukraine drones were flying in and around Moscow I'd have to deal with that reality. The current government of Russia is literally Steven Seagal on the world stage, but its entirely different to get its own populace to not be able to ignore reality. Nobody wants to invade Moscow, nobody wants Moscow. All anyone wants Russia to do is go home and shut the gently caress up and stop embarrassing themselves. But no, the same boring rear end uninspired clone of the same dictator garbage that we've all seen has to happen yet again, because insecure confused old men like Putin can't deal with the fact that they ain't happy. It's just all so goddamned boring and trite and typical and the same drat thing, over and over and over again

Ukraine isn't going to go march into Russia. Its crazy to even fantasize about it. Best scenario, they kick Russia out of mainland Ukraine and create a DMZ around the borders which Russia regularly violates.

As fun as it is to Clancychat about killer drones descending on Putin's butt, this drone was probably spying on Russian training efforts at nearby military bases (red polygons). The pin marks the reported crash site. There's lots to snoop on:

Ukraine is never going to invade Russia lmao get real people. Here's a good discussion of China's aims towards Siberia https://news.yahoo.com/xi-jinping-plan-annex-russian-190000385.html yahoo posted:The long-debated agreement on “Power of Siberia 2” (POS2) – a massive pipeline project to pump gas from Western Siberia to China via Mongolia – has become emblematic of the one-sided and slightly abusive relationship between China and Russia since the start of the Ukraine war. It is not good news for Moscow. A well-known Russian Sinologist spoke about the relations between the two countries after the meeting with Xi and Putin: Alexander Lukin posted:Психологически надо готовиться к тому, что Россия по сравнению с Китаем будет страной менее влиятельной, а со временем — и менее развитой. My translation, apologies for errors: Lukin posted:Psychologically, we need to prepare for the fact that Russia, compared to China, will be a less influential country, and over time, less developed.
