a maintenence facility will have spare parts, documentation, special tools, diagnostic computers, etc. All of which can be copied and learned from. The most important will be the wear schedules or whatever they're called - anything that flies has components with fixed usable lifespans and knowing that keeps your fleet in the air without you having to piece bits together after a midair explosion to figure out what failed and mark down "central turbine core blades - failed after 5201 hours"

That documentation is surely trivial to get, either through bribery or hacking.

are iron domes mobile platforms? seems like a good intelligence get if hezbollah was able to knock out a couple, I wonder how many platforms israel has at all. probably hundreds to cover the whole country?

Yeah they're moved regularly based on covering the most threatened are at a given time by design. But Israel is like, slightly smaller than the state of New Jersey so it's a given that there's only so many vital points they can be moving to.

Each Iron Dome battery cost $100,000,000 to produce as of 2013 so uh lol

Surely there are enough eyes on the batteries that they can be easily tracked once they find one? They're transported on a trailer for one, using a normal truck cab, so they probably stick to roads.

it’s also probably not that unlikely that they were being moved between a fixed number of locations even when they were being moved on schedule

Iran did just very recently have a shitton of drones all over Israel... wouldn't be hard to share any useful information those might have gathered with like-minded interested parties.

And since then, Israel has been pretty preoccupied with having angry meetings in bunkers.

To my knowledge most modern missile defence/SAM systems are a series of truck-mounted launchers and radar systems, Iron Dome included

This is supposedly the context of the clip, taken from here. I can't verify the translation myself obviously but Poroshenko comparing the conditions of western Ukraine to occupied Ukraine in the present tense seems like a way more plausible interpretation than him openly vowing to terrorise the children of Donbass. Even very evil guys tend not to just say that stuff out loud.

quote:

“This war can’t be won with weapons. Every bullet produces two enemies. And every peaceful day Ukrainian state demonstrates on the liberated territories that citizens, who sang praises to false separatist regime a month ago, receive heat, electricity, at last they can send their children to school, they started to receive pensions, survivorship and disablement payments, they have jobs, they have salaries.

“And from the other side – I have spoken by phone with a woman, the associate professor of Taras Shevchenko Luhansk University. I have asked her: “How do you spend your day?” and she has answered me: “I get up at 5 am in order to reserve a place in a queue and to get two pots of water. As we have no water. I return home at 10 am and hurry to a queue for bread. One and a half loaves of bread. Till 12 o’clock there would be no bread. I return from there and stay at home from that moment because armed men start to appear in streets from 2 pm and they could shoot everyone”.

“My dear people of Odesa! This is what we avoided thanks to your wisdom, your solidarity. And thanks to – now we all are confident about this – your pro-Ukrainian position. I was full of joy, when after visiting Odesa the delegation of the OSCE made a conclusion that Odesa is a city of harmony, the city of peace. There can’t be a better compliment. I was very happy about it. Thank you for your wisdom, people of Odesa!

“And we win together by means of peace! Because we have jobs, and they have not. We have pensions, and they have not. We have support of children and pensioners, they have not. Our children would go to kindergartens and schools, theirs would be sitting in cellars. Because they do not know anything how to do! That’s how we are going to win this war. Because wars are won in minds, and not on the combat fields! They do not know this, but I know. And I have your support, I need it very much in order we win this war without perished Ukrainians, without perished inhabitants of Odesa.”

not gonna lie I'm really shocked by just how badly they're losing this, they did a horrible genocide beyond our wildest nightmares but in terms of military, politically and strategic situation they are failing beyond our wildest expectations.

Originally, I thought they would end the war shortly after the first prisoner swap, then things would just go back to the lovely situation that was before with the israelis given a bloody nose but still somewhat intact, but israel decided to dig a big fat grave for itself and wouldnt stop digging, handing a historic victory to Hamas and Iran and their allies, it's crazy.
