Interesting tidbit on the ISW report tonight, so this was a possible combined Storm Shadow and USV attack.
and accurate. Ukrainian forces struck the BSF ship repair plant in Sevastopol where the Yamal Ropucha-class landing ship was moored on March 23, making a hole in the Yamal’s upper deck and forcing BSF personnel to continuously pump water out of the ship. Ukrainian Navy Spokesperson Captain Third Rank Dmytro Pletenchuk stated that the March 23 Ukrainian strike on the BSF communications center caused substantial damage, which Pletenchuk assessed may significantly hinder the functioning of the BSF because the communications center supported the general activities of the fleet and may have also been responsible for the fleet’s provisions, ongoing repairs, and other important functions |

According to U.S. and Ukrainian Defense Officials, the Ballistic Missile Attack earlier today by the Russian Armed Forces against the Cities of Kyiv and Odesa utilizing Hypersonic and Short-Range Ballistic Missiles was attempting to Target several Facilities used by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and High-Ranking Members of the Ukrainian Government, with these kind of Attacks expected to Increase over the next few Days and Weeks.
The Russian Ministry of Energy is reportedly in planning with the National Guard of Russia (Rosgvardiya) regarding the Deployment of Pantsir-S1/S2 Surface-to-Air Missile Batteries and Anti-Drone Systems to Infrastructure Buildings across Western Russia, with the Buildings expected to include Oil Refineries, Transfer Sites, Depots, Ports, as well as several Power Plants which have all become Targets for Ukrainian Long-Range Attack Drones in recent Weeks.

Look here, guys!
The laptop has been delivered and the UAV operator will work on it! Thank you very much! But soon there will be new training camps and new trips. We will be going to the border of Kharkiv. There is information that orcs are planning to attack from there. We want to bring a large FENIX flashlight, camouflage netting, a laptop, and explosive devices. So we will be glad to receive donations.  Attached FilePay pal: [email protected] crypto wallet we have also join our social networks: instagram: Cf_garnizon Facebook: Cf.garnizon X: C_fgarnizon |

The last bit about Russia helping hamas and even participating is interesting. I have assumed this from the beginning although not the actual participation. UNWRA participation in the attack was also mildly surprising. Hopefully Israel KNOWS who and what happened and will take steps... |

So basically they are going to ask Ukraine if it is okay to intercept Russian missiles getting too close to the border countries. I am sure Ukraine will say "yes" and then the NATO countries will attempt to take out those errant missiles. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By BigGrumpyBear: It's not that modern buildings don't burn, it's about controlling how long it takes to get out of control. Everything that goes into any building here in the west has to be chemically treated to inhibit flame spread once it's on fire. And the building is built to inhibit fire from moving from one part of the building to the other. And everything, material and workmanship is inspected to ensure it meets the separate Fire and Building Codes. For example, here in Bama, and it may be different in your AO, all exit corridors are rated as one hour. Meaning a fire on the other side of the corridor wall will take one hour to burn through. This is to give the occupants time to exit the building safely. Everything about that wall must meet code even down to how the gyp. bd in stacked, and the type, placement, and quantity, of the screws. Where everything short is when the building is in use. Holes get punched through the dry wall to run new cables and they don't use fire rated caulk to seal the hole because it's expensive. Or an occupant props open a door leaving a path for smoke and fire to move through. All that being said, I hated putting EIFS on a fucking building simply because of fire spread concerns due to shitty workmanship.  This is just one example and, I agree a broad brush example at that, but you get my point. thats true. Some are even rated for longer, thats why when a smoke detector goes off, you'll see doors start closing. They're supposed to be held open by an electromagnet that disengages when system is tripped. Fire dampers close on the AC return above the ceiling. Penetrations in those walls are supposed to go through a chase nipple thats fire caulked and fire putty around the wires. Most folks didnt pay much attention to it till after 9/11. One thing about that article that is either wrong or different. Our electrical doesn't switch to emergency lighting when the fire system is activated. It'll run till the breaker is tripped, the emergency lighting is provided by battery ballast in each light that is activated when constant power to the light is de-energized. |

A visual reference of how these systems work. Gives some idea of how fast a target can be hit that is 750 miles away.
Of course, there are other options. Publicly derived Trident II missile profiles, not much time for Russian land based ICBM's to respond.

The time for 'considering' their response to air incursions was two years ago. They should have already considered this, established a policy, coordinated with partners as necessary, and communicated that policy so that all understand the rules. IMO, the policy should be that any missile approaching NATO air space gets shot down. If that means stuff falls on Ukraine, well too bad. Ukraine already has stuff falling so they're probably going to be okay with it. Again, that should have been coordinated already. This entire article reveals the lack of proactive and decisive leadership in NATO and the West. |

It is frustrating because everyone has to form a committee to discuss something, then make a decision to do something and all agree to the action to be taken. Then the action happens. In the meantime, people die and stuff gets destroyed. I would rather make much quicker decisions. |

I agree, on many levels. It's a no brainer, you can sponser U.S. F-35's and anything else to patrol this airspace and shoot down the cruise missiles and drones, live fire training.

That's the beauty of it as it gives us an ability to real-world test our systems and TTPs but nope "muh escalation!" I still remember in 2015 being seriously concerned about escalation when Turkey shot down that Su-24 with seemingly no regard or care that they are in NATO and could've potentially put us in an article 5 situation at a time everyone was focused on the counter-ISIS fight.
