@SukritGanesh@AMK_Mapping_ The main problem is radar. The MiG29 radar has far too short a range, and I doubt it would work with Western A-A missiles. And to my knowledge, no one has delivered modern F-16s equipped with AESA radars, only older models. And a patriot near the front is suicide, same with S400.
@leandroshagomes@squatsons Russia never attacks in retaliation. Its strategic attacks are limited solely by the number of missiles and the capabilities of its strategic aviation. Predictable as clockwork for the last 4 years.
@squatsons Five days ago this, today Volvograd.
Again several direct hits, again during full daytime operations and resulting painful staff losses. Didn't anyone warn them?
@RALee85 The alleged second hit should be treated with healthy skepticism, but the first was a completely unnecessary loss. A bad day for the Air Force.
@GloOouD I like that this is the second strike on key industries within 5 days, in which significant numbers of workers have also been harmed. The Russians live in their undisturbed, idyllic world while their barbaric hordes 500 km away are looting, raping, and murdering Ukrainians. Sick.
@ianinnorway@JLGD100@squatsons Thats not entirely correct; such attacks were unicorns from the UKR side until 2025 and the attrition and resource expenditure for defending such attacks on the RU side was practically zero. Within a few months they became commonplace and who knows how much further it will scale.
@3_bm15@Scholars_Stage There are 3 essential areas where Ukraine has failed to adapt and where they cannot offer anything comparable in response:
- (suppress) RU strategic long-range attacks
- (suppress) RU tactical bomber fleet (FABs)
- and the sword of Damocles - number of soldiers
@AfaHeikkinen@NOELreports Absolutely. I hope none of the naive decision-makers believe this nonsense and are resting on their laurels. All that matters now is massively scaling up production, destruction, and expanding attacks without giving RU time to adapt. Pressure, pressure, pressure
@gerhard_mangott Das ist schon sehr zynisch, denn eine effektive Kriegsfรผhrung verwehr man ihnen gleichzeitig. Hat man in Europa รผberhaupt eine schlรผssige Strategie? Oder ist man wie so oft einfach nur zu unfรคhig? Eine Frage die mich seit 4 Jahren beschรคftigt.
@TheUnseenView@AMK_Mapping_ Thatโs right; what stands out is the trend. All in all, the Russian figures over the last 12 months show a constant pattern, whereas the Ukrainian ones are skyrocketing. If the curve continues like this...oh damn. But itโs still too early to say.
@kimhvik2 Today marks the obligatory 10 days that Russia always needs. Do you think they'll collect for longer this time to sell it as a particularly large "retaliation"? Admittedly, the attacks on Moscow and Voronezh were very painful and stirred up a lot of dust.
@joematzam@DelwinStrategy Unfortunately, I currently see no signs of de-escalation. More realistic is that we will see all neighboring RU oblasts also without power this winter. The devastating attack on Voronezh is interesting in this context. Question is how much pressure the west are willing to exert.
@BrennpunktUA Anhand der Trรคnen der Trolle und des Schweigens des Regimes kann man davon ausgehen das der Strike eine 10/10 auf der Schmerzscala war. 5-6 direkte Treffer mitten im Tagesbetrieb, Autsch.

@FabianT33029154@BrennpunktUA Anhand der fehlenden Reaktion des Regimes in Form des typischen geheules, war der Strike eine 10/10 auf der Schmerzscala.
