Take me to the woodshed and make me squeal then. Tell me what is really going on.

Dont forget to explain why Xiden is slow rolling the aid to Ukraine and how the Ukraine looking into the Burisma corruption shitshow has nothing to do with anything. How are those MIG 29, S300 systems and everything else working out for Ukraine?

Re: India buying Russian oil for $35/barrel. If I'm not mistaken, Russia can't produce much oil at all, especially now without the western oil company techs, correct?

While certainly not ideal, it seems like India buying their oil might not be totally a bad thing, provided Russia isn't able to replace what they're selling.

Kind of like when the meth head sells a nice propane grill for $15.00. She's going to blow that $15.00 which isn't going to come anywhere near solving her problems anyway, plus now she doesn't have a grill either. She comes out poorer at the end.

Selling oil for $35/barrel is an act of desperation. That money isn't anywhere near enough to buy them anything except maybe a tiny amount of time, and running out of fuel quicker may cancel that out.

My guess is some oligarchs are pocketing that money and Russian .gov will see very little benefit from that sale.

Boeing has actually received a license from the United States government to export the F-15EX to India.  We should stop support operations for the (11) C-17's, (12) C-130's, (22) AH-64's, (15) Ch-47's, and (12) P-8's. They have more American aircraft, but stopping support for that alone would put a hurting on them.

Poland wanted wanted one for one deal. They wanted one F-16 per one mig they gave to Ukraine. No way one of those migs are worth a single F-16

Extort? Come the fuck on.

I'm all about selling shit and we do LMCO enough favors, but what the Poles were asking was *not* extortion; it was asking not to be left butt ass naked and to flapping in the wind if the US got weak kneed about their security guarantees. Which seems to be happening with disappointing regularity these days.

The F16s would strengthen Poland while the migs would strengthen Ukraine. Sounds like a good deal to me.

The Ukrainians would listen to the ideas from the Mexicans for about 5 minutes, admit that would be what they might like to do to the Russians, then politely invite the purveyor of such ideas to fuck off back to their shit hole country.

Yes but Poland backed out because they couldn't get the deal they wanted which was fresh F-16's from USA for each MIG-29 to Ukraine.  They defined fresh as low hours and newer versions.  One needed to go to Polish media and translate to get that definition.  US press didn't report on that specific that I've seen.

State department said no.  Then Poland tried to salvage the deal demanding that USA take direct delivery from them for free, but with the expectation that USA would provide the F-16s later.

That fell through, and Poland kept the MIGs.  They could have easily told Ukraine to send over pilots and fly them out.  The USA originally approved the transfer this way.  Probably because there was US tech installed and Poland needed permission.

Dropping off ADS-b just means we can't see it. Doesn't mean the military can't see it.

New post from the War Zone:


TWZ speaks practical realities, once again

ETA: think about this. Training Ukrainian pilots now is "controversial" and "escalatory" (like everything else with the Russians).

Ok, so what do we call it if, in a few months, the Ukrainians have lost complete control of their airspace and the only answer is to send NATO aircraft and pilots?

Think that's escalatory?!

I wish our political leadership could think more than a week ahead. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I'm, uhh, well aware.

ADS-B is the current thing that I, and I expect most of ARF, can see now.

NATO and the rest of the world does the on and off drill also.

The fact that Russia sent an important asset like that into that air corridor does mean something. And having the beacon on meant something also. But I don't know the answer. And while I am sure that US assets know when that platform launched and how much fuel it has consumed, I am not sure that the US knows for sure what the purpose and intended and hidden meaning of the flight was.
