genericnick posted:I mean literally. A US invasion into North Vietnam up to the Chinese border might have healed the sino-soviet split. not to mention reunified korea this is a really underappreciated aspect of the vietnam war i dont think enough people appreciate south korea was a huge participator in the vietnam war and the war probably wouldnt have been sustainable for as long as it was without their help kim il sung very much wanted to take advantage of their depleted defense to restart the korean war but china and the soviets both told him to not even think about it drawing china into the vietnam war doesnt just mean youre fighting the chinese it also gives north korea free reign to restart the korea war because of the pressure it puts on south korean troops in vietnam to go home and deal with a bigger problem bear in mind that this hypothetical presumes that anyone in south korea even wants to back the government there any more because "facing an existential crisis because dear leader wanted blood money to make us go and fight americas war for them" isnt exactly a defensible position when it comes to domestic morale

be interesting how Russia deals with this if they make a push i assume they'd have to use air power and accept they're going to lose most of the aircraft used

Chrystia Freeland is a personal hero of mine and has demonstrated outstanding leadership qualities with her steadfast support of the Ukrainian cause throughout the years. Canada will be in good hands when she takes over for Justin Trudeau.

I feel like Russia will be fine just shelling the trench works and keeping the Ukrainian army occupied and expending lives and ammo on yet another front While no defensive line is ever a joke theres no way the Ukrainians have built anything nearly half as formidable as the Russians did to break their Spring Offensive that launched in June. It took the Ukrainians weeks to capture just the forward defensive areas. The Russians are already through those

The Russians are already through those The official word for quite a while was Russia defended the skirmish line too hard and were not utilizing the actual defensive line properly. Taking weeks to capture the forward defensive areas is good news, for Ukraine.

Ardennes posted:They usually counter that Russia has no tanks or troops…even though they obviously on the advance, the Ukrainians have been fretting about a new front for weeks, and there are factories pumping on video pumping out new tank etc. It doesn’t matter. UAC delivered at least 2 SU-35s last weeks while being "crippled by sanctions".

Ukraine's offensive basically ended after the capture of Robotyne, just in front of the first actual defensive line

Artillery is the dumbest and worst and stupidest and most useless combat arm. Any military force would be instantly improved a hundred-fold by eliminating all artillery units and redirecting the resources towards Special Forces.

The Russians are already through those you need your opponent to advance a bit to properly set up the backhand blow, its all part of the master plan.
