Its almost 6:50 in Kyiv. There's a live stream of maiden square from Reuters and another from a nearby church from Fox i think? Not sure if anyone else knows of any others. There was an earthcam one but that went down a few hours ago.

BUG JUG posted:The thing I am wondering about now is: replacement. There is a LOT of Russian hardware littering the Ukranian countryside right now, and Russia looks like they will be living under severe economic sanctions for a decade or so, so....how does the Russian Army/Air Force afford to replace any of this poo poo? Like, is Russia actively degrading themselves from Superpower to Second Rate power in front of our eyes? I've been wondering kinda the same thing these last few days. I keep thinking of their entire economy being the size of New York States. The worldwide response been pretty incredible and crippling in its own right. But with every launched Missile and destroyed vehicle ive seen im always mentally "Wait how much does that have to cost them?"

pantslesswithwolves posted:I am extremely surprised at how Russia, a country with the enduring national myth of an effective and omnipotent intelligence apparatus, could do badly underestimate the capabilities and morale of the Ukrainian army, its civilian leadership and the people. It's probably a big drawback to always have to question how sober your men were when they gathered their intel.

There was some youtube video about a large tank battle in gulf war that explained one of the main ways our tactics paid off vs the iraqi's was because they were using the Russian doctrine which was less flexible while our forces on the ground had the ability to make independent decisions for themselves iirc. Something to that extent. Could be the same thing sticking to a plan even if the plans clearly already hosed.

SMEGMA_MAIL posted:So they’re actually dismounted this time but goddamn are they really close together Well that's progress. They still just seem/look confused as hell though. That vid yesterday of a Ukrainian civilian talking to that Russian tank crew that ran out of gas: "You guys know where you are? No. Where you are going? No. why you stop? Out of fuel. " Like, Buddy those are all questions i'd really like to have answered if im an invader in a hostile land. And those guys just went eh time for a smoke break.

Torrannor posted:This is a fascinating read, thanks for posting this. I've not even finished the whole thread, but already the point about Syria is one I haven't even thought about. How will the Russian supply their Syrian troops when they can't even supply the invasion at home? Will they eventually decide/be forced to recall the bulk of their forces from Syria? And isn't Assad toast without the Russians? In all thats been going on these past few years/months it kinda slipped my mind they were still down there. I'm sure theres a lot of "Wtf do we do now" going on.

As Nero Danced posted:Every year or so, I have to give this thread another spin. It's just a treasure trove of bad ideas. He wanted to walk along the side of the interstate through the American Southwest in summer. Death March doesn't even begin to describe how bad of an idea his journey would have been. And then after he could enjoy the humid south! Pretty sure its illegal to walk along the highway too in most states. So a trooper would've pulled over and asked him what the hell he was doing eventually.
