Obviously the Russians have very powerful rocket artillery too, but, I would not want to be on the receiving end of this:

Can anyone translate the soldiers’ comments?

The West needs to get substantially more HIMARS, long range artillery (M777-ER would be fantastic), and drones to the Ukies in the Kherson area, to keep Russian artillery from destroying Kherson. Given that, it also looks to me like the Russians will be down to one major road that comes into Crimea from the NE, and a railway that won’t really do them a lot of good. The other major road runs ~parallel to the river for a while; both it and the main railway south are easy targets for the Ukies if they (Ukraine) can operate even somewhat unimpeded from the West Bank away from the more densely populated areas.

You are so right about the need for more GPS rocket and more max range artillery. One Freeper posted what the Nixon administration delivered to Israel in a 32 day period during the ‘73 War and it sure makes current US efforts look anemic. The Ukrainians are dealing with a very long front and they need lots of the good stuff.
