CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:The bouncing bomb was a special designed bomb that required a very exact attack profile and also placement in the depths of the water storage to work - Too far away did nothing. Just throwing a missile or hurling a handful of artillery will not work. One of the bouncing bombs exploded at the base of a dam and didnt even scratch it uhhh sure but i'm saying "Dams are beefy but they're not designed to counter munitions" based off wiki and i guess that ep of the simpsons with niles is dumb. they are now and have been ever since someone paying for one to last longer than a war thought "what if they drag a cannon over there?" it's vital infrastructure an enemy would definitely target, not a rinky dink money laundering operation lol

My guess, and this is purely just a guess based on what little we know, is that it could very well have been a structural failure rather than deliberate sabotage, but only because Russia was trying and failing to build up to a more catastrophic flood on a timetable that was more suitable for them. There is evidence they closed the dam to fill up the reservoir, presumably in preparation to flood the Dnipro, but there are also reports, however credible they may be, that this happened days before Russia actually planned to blow the dam, leaving their own forces with no time to evacuate or regroup. Assuming those premises are correct, it's entirely possible they overfilled the reservoir in preparation for a planned sabotage a few days from now, but their neglect of the dam could have actually caused it to fail ahead of time.

Huh. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jun/07/nato-members-may-send-troops-to-ukraine-warns-former-alliance-chief Guardian posted:A group of Nato countries may be willing to put troops on the ground in Ukraine if member states including the US do not provide tangible security guarantees to Kyiv at the alliance’s summit in Vilnius, the former Nato secretary general Anders Rasmussen has said. I'm not sure what to make of this tbh

Sending in a coalition of like minded Anti-Nazis squadrons from around the world and cutting off all Russian tourism globally are two long overdue steps to stop the massacres and force Russians at home to fix Russia at home

HonorableTB posted:I'm not sure what to make of this tbh I won't deny it, its a bit crazy. But on the other hand, member states can act individually if they so wish. Perhaps this could, in theory, make Russia finally back the gently caress off if actual polish fighters join in to help defend Ukraine. Even the suggestion of it becoming a reality might do it. But i am not a military expert, i do not know how a nation that has proven to be increasingly erratic, not to mention incompetent, like Russia might respond.

I was in model United Nations in college as the head position paper writer for the NATO committee representing the proud landlocked country of the Czech Republic in its incessant crusade against Somali pirates attacking shipping. One of the things I learned is that Article 5 has limitations upon its invocation and one of those is if the NATO member state initiates hostilities on its own, it cannot invoke Article 5 as if they were the ones attacked first. That would at least keep it from being a NATO vs Russia hot war (which always ends in a nuclear exchange, and nuclear warfare is my Actual Area Of Expertise) but Russia would probably force it into an Article 5 by attacking a non-belligerent NATO member under the logic of "well NATO is already attacking" But anyway we're deep deep deep into Clancychat territory so I'll end it there

Horsebanger posted:If Putin dressed as M. Bison I'd take him far more seriously. There were notions that "We'll have to work with Moscow after this" and the infamously foolish Macron warning. But it does seem like those notions are drying up. Or I may just be mistaking a German sort of shift with a more universal one. But the irritation with Moscow seems to be hardening and I have no idea what it means beyond no one important, except for maybe China, will view Moscow as having anything left with which to negotiate. It's historically bad for a country that had imperial ambitions.

Looks like HIMARS hitting Tokmak. Looking at a map it’s got roads going everywhere and is a very obvious point of attack. I’ve never heard of that town before today but I expect we’re going to hear about it a lot very shortly.

Tokmak correspondingly has been hit hard quite a bit during the shaping operations over the last month, and sporadically before that because as zone said, it's a locally important staging hub for logistics in south-central Ukraine

They are going for Tokmak and moving towards Mariupol. We are IN THIS!!!! Discounter attack will attempt to cut the Russians into four sections. The crimean/kherson section, the melitpol section, Donetsk and Luhansk. Through taking tokmak and Alchevsk they will essentialy rip the rail head soon and stop the supply lines. This will allow decisive victory in the field if they pull it off. If not we can look at a split between Crimea and donetsk via Mariupol. I surmised that they would wish to block Crimea off from Putin's forces in Ukraine as those forces will be tantamount to the defense of the island. It looks like a drive to the Azov is their current maneuver but that could change. WAR CRIME GIGOLO fucked around with this message at 04:26 on Jun 8, 2023 |

SAY YOHO posted:"zone's right about Tokmak's importance, because zone said..." Hah! You're right, I didn't mean it that way. Tokmak is definitely a regional logistics hub due to the way highways intersect there in the local area, and zone rightfully called that out. There's been semi-regular reports from Tokmak getting HIMARS'd and having smoking accidents, and primarily its because Tokmak serves as a warehouse collection point for the Russian Zaporizhzhian frontlines. TulliusCicero posted:Does Mariupol even exist as a functioning city/ port anymore? I remember the Russians pretty much obliterated it in their early war crimes. Russian occupation authorities have thrown up megacheap tenement style buildings to replace the better-built apartment blocks they destroyed, but news out of Mariupol in general is pretty hard to come by because of the occupation. The replacement buildings the Russians built are absolute garbage. There's lots of signal jamming going on there and the roadways out are blocked by checkpoints manned by Russians who won't let the residents leave.

But it's a city and cities are highway heads. So they need to be taken and Mariupol is a good position to slice the front in half. It's not gonna give +10 logistics anytime soon.
