Bloody obvious military targets. Who needs such plans?
I think the Ukrainians did it. As they had every right to do.
Acts of war call for acts of war.
“Same Brits that blew up NS2?”
Yep, it seems that the Brits are in a hurry to engage the Russians. They probably should have built up a military first, as they’ll likely learn.
Really.
The Russians can do squat, unless they unleash the nukes.
And if they shoot at a Nato country conventionally they are toast. No exports, no shipping, no earnings, no assets and anything that pokes its head outside Russia proper gets zapped.
They are so short of artillery and arty ammo that they are resurrecting WWII howitzers. That’s on Russian video btw.
Russia is at the end of its rope.
I doubt the Russians blew up the bridge. After all, they built it (I assume you believe that much).
How did this plan manage to blow up the Kerch railway bridge too? At the same time as the Kerch roadways?
“Yep, it seems that the Brits are in a hurry to engage the Russians. They probably should have built up a military first, as they’ll likely learn.”
Great point...:-) It’s amazing how many cerebrally challenged people don’t understand that Britain and the United States aren’t in this war as they repeatedly state. They are just “sending weapons”...doncha know...:-)
“They are just “sending weapons”...doncha know...:-)”
LOL, and now ‘weapons inspectors’. The working theory on that is to have a way of explaining the body bags now returning from their front-line operations.
No, I think the Ukrainians blew up the bridge. As they should have.
It was either amazing good luck, or there was more to the plan than we know at this time.
“No, I think the Ukrainians blew up the bridge. As they should have.”
Not without help - too complex of an operation for them.
Don’t forget that they handle the HIMARS, too, because the United States did not trust the Ukrainians to keep them out of the Russian’s hands.
And of course, they have a huge number of “advisors” and they also handle incoming weapon logistics.
This is the way we fight wars these days. We do it all except the fighting and dying. We “farm out” that part...:-)
How do you know it was too complex for them?
There has been a long run of mysterious fires and explosions and derailments and etc. all over Russia since the war began.
Ukrainians can easily “pass” as Russians, and the Russian administration is extremely corrupt.
” United States did not trust the Ukrainians to keep them out of the Russian’s hands.”
That is pure propaganda. You have no way of knowing that in any case. The secret of HIMARS is entirely within the rocket, the GPS guidance system, and as a munition that stuff is “open” to the enemy as any dud round will permit enemy examination.
“How do you know it was too complex for them?”
More than obvious to anyone following this war.
“This is the way we fight wars these days. We do it all except the fighting and dying. We “farm out” that part...:-)”
It is nice for the Ukrainians to be our ‘human waves’, although I think our alliance with the Azovs really gives them no choice.
bkmk
You seem really pleased.
