https://twitter.com/EliotHiggins/status/1584608022147391488quote:Given these highly specialised technical skills, it seemed plausible that the GVC may be linked to programming the flight paths of Russia’s cruise missiles. Therefore Bellingcat obtained phone metadata records of the highest ranking individual publicly named as its director: Maj. Gen. Baranov. This method is similar to that employed by Bellingcat to track and trace the poisoners of Russian opposition politician Alexey Navalny, with data purchased from brokers who commonly offer such services. While this method would be impossible in most countries, Russia’s black market for data has helped journalists and activists piece together numerous significant investigations into the country’s military and secret services in recent years. During the Cold War, the CIA would kill to get even a single phone recording. Now anyone can call with fat paypal account and get full wiretaps and hidden recordings for the right price. Corruption means even the panopticon owners need a dacha too.

Griefor posted:France is pretty heavy on nuclear (selling excess nuclear electricity to Germany even) but Germany has made it a huge political issue to not use nuclear power. The political climate is such that plans for nuclear plants are political suicide. Even if the coal plants used to fill in the gaps are having much worse total effect on health/life expectancy than nuclear power would, meltdown risk included. Even France has some broke brained stuff where their leaders were trying to cut their nuclear power usage in half by 2035 before this current crisis. The anti-nuclear politics are extremely strong. https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/russias-medvedev-threatens-defense-industry-arrests-during-tank-plant-visit Surely threatening the Russian defense industry will make up for their dependence on western parts and the resulting stoppages inflicted by the sanctions. https://twitter.com/olgarithmic/status/1584340542460428288 Depressing life vests are showing up. https://twitter.com/ralee85/status/1584799754407464960 Older HAWK air defense systems are probably coming to UA. It's old technology, the US military hasn't used HAWK anti-air for two decades.

Payndz posted:Huh, so what's the Portuguese for 'milkshake duck?' Lula's always been a bit of a tankie, but Bolsonaro is such a massive bootlicker that somehow this is actually an improvement. It's damning with faint praise, but Lula's dirt-eating stance on the war is slightly better than Bolsonaro's subterranean takes. https://mil.in.ua/en/news/new-award-rates-for-captured-russians-set-in-ukraine/ The reward for capturing a Russian prisoner is supposedly, quote:Donbas fighters – $200; It appears it's entirely based on how useful they are for prisoner exchanges to get Ukrainians back from Russia. Because Chechnya is run as a modern feudal domain, Kadyrov's TikTok killers are always get ransomed or exchanged. They are his brutal, murderous thugs, and Kadyrov takes care of the violent assholes who swear fealty to him. Note this is not all chechens, just Kadyrov's gang. Meanwhile Donbas fighters are almost never get ransomed or exchanged, so they are worth the least.

https://rusi.org/explore-our-resear...uary-july-2022/ https://static.rusi.org/359-SR-Ukraine-Preliminary-Lessons-Feb-July-2022-web-final.pdf I wonder where they are getting the numbers for this quote:Despite the importance of UAVs to remaining competitive, their attrition rates were extremely high. Of all UAVs used by the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the first three phases of the war covered by this study (first 90 days of the war), around 90% were destroyed. The average life expectancy of a quadcopter remained around three flights. The average life expectancy of a fixed-wing UAV was around six flights.

So this is why a mere BMP was able to shove around a bunch of "anti tank obstacles". They were actually hollow shells filled with copium. https://twitter.com/oryxspioenkop/status/1600151315371347968

https://wartranslated.com/pravda-com-ua-interview-ukrainian-colonel-oleh-faydyuk/ An interview with colonel Oleh Faydyuk, Commander of the 45th Separate Artillery Brigade. This is a unit of towed artillery and anti-tank teams that did not really exist before the war and was rapidly built up during the early part of the conflict.

At least for Ukrainian infantry, the small drones are practically disposable since they usually only last half a day of operations. So of course Australia gave them actual disposible drones made of waxed cardboard. https://twitter.com/clashreport/status/1638097090906578944
