@sentdefender@chrisschmitz maybe china/russia/iran do have an interest in venezuela worth sending missiles at ships and bases over...through proxy of course
@reactordrone@bayraktar_1love ah i stand corrected, that imo is still enough to escape moderate damage especially for the search radars. if ukraine had cluster munitions, itd be much different. them not getting atacms in number was the biggest hurt to their effort imo
@bayraktar_1love actually nvm it was def either a huge solid fuel storage area or a s series launcher that was loaded, that gray smoke plume is impossible to miss
@bayraktar_1love i think it was a few Tors, if it was s300-400 we would have seen fireworks like we see other times when an s400 launcher is hit. much bigger and "streaky". the radar is probably unharmed, those are usually kilometers away from the launcher. good hit though
@bayraktar_1love also the terminal definitely took some hits to infrastructure/ships. wonder if russia used 14 kinzhals as a response to this or it was already planned before ukraine's strike
@Tendar man eventually russia will have to decide to use tactical nukes or not. eventually their capacity for refining and shipping will take too much damage and their economy will implode. literally the only chance they have left of quickly winning the war is using tactical nukes
@BenjaminNorton aint no way she doesnt get murked if the US actually invades. wonder if she knows that. she wont be safe unless she literally hides in washington DC
@Megatron_ron man can yall imagine if venezuela is the first country in the 21st century to sink a US carrier. shit would be wild af. if i was Maduro and I knew i was cooked i would do everything i could to at least have "sunk a US carrier" on my gravestone lol
@sentdefender but if Ukraine keeps at it, eventually they will hamper russias economy enough to affect their manpower ability greatly. russias only real option at that point strategically is send ukraine into grid failure thereby crippling their war effort totally
@sentdefender eventually russia will have to decide between losing their economic heart and targetting ukraines 750kv infrastructure. i know they dont want to (those transformers being destroyed means russia has to rebuild them if they take Ukraine) but at a certain point, they have to decide.
@IDF at a certain point hezbollah will have to decide whether to sit down and die or fight, unless these strikes arent doing the damage claimed. but israel did claim hezbollah is rearming at a rapid rate, so do these strikes mean less than implied?
