Yeah, most likely russian bot farms or shills if you're seeing a lot of it.

Because let's face it, if they'd forgotten you, they wouldn't have contacted you!

They're trying to break your morale. DON'T LET THEM. Keep the faith, stay strong, and kill every fucking one of them you can.

Looks like there were 2-3 hits on the missile ship "Askold" at the Kerch shipyard.

Russians report they shot down 3 storm shadows in Berdyansk. (likely the same way they shot down all the cruise missiles in Kerch)

I'm mostly just forwarding everything to the ukebros tg group as I am lazy and can barely keep up with the news today.

Pretty sad if a Tu-141 got through the air defense they have at the site.


but if that is that case then I think those were fired to saturate and distract the Russian air defense.

If Ukraine gets pushed out eventually, meh.  Russia will again trumpet a bloodbath as the next Waterloo, and then do it again until they can’t.

Disagree. Avdiivka is adjacent to Donetsk city, and that closeness gives Ukraine better arty access to the large rail & road distribution points around Donetsk. Avdiivka has been a strong point since 2014 that Ukraine has held fast for nine years of combat. Avdiivka has more strategic, tactical, and symbolic importance than Bakhmut.

Losing Avdiivka will prove that the seemingly large Russian numerical losses don't matter. Russia can win if they keep pushing. Ukraine's offensive went nowhere, with no strategic gains in five months. Russia's offensive is close to securing the flank of Donetsk city after nine years, and also is advancing toward Kupiansk.

I don't think Avdiivka is 'meh' at all.

General Oleshkey says it was a scalp apparently.

Still, I thought the Ukes got the neutered 250km variant.

Either way maybe soon the Kerch Bridge will soon be the Kerch smoking crater,tho it seems the Ukrainians are focusing on making Crimea untenable for the Rus navy more than anything.

There’s always a possibility of war, especially when you’re not ready for it.

I’m sympathetic to that opinion about war and medicine, even though I want to beat it to death with a physician’s desk reference. The field of medicine could advance just fine without war, but because we did such a good job of cutting through so much bullshit during OEF and OIF, people have a backwards association with the success.

“Science advances one funeral at a time” under normal conditions.
We could fix that. We could’ve figured out that tourniquets don’t make limbs fall off or that cold trauma patients don’t do well or that normal saline doesn’t replace whole blood just fine in peacetime.

But that’ll take people not letting bullshit go unchallenged.

Well, let us know when there are no wars and the possibility of conflict subsides so we can stop producing the tools to solve the problem that our military is requesting we supply them with.   I'm sure we'll really be ready then against an enemy that doesn't care about any rules and decides they can destroy us because we stopped making cool expensive weapons.

Yes, we make more money with stability in the form of long term contracts that cover years of production to keep the customer, that is, the U.S. military supplied with what they wanted.

Inventories are all carefully monitored regardless who the president is and stockpiles of ordinance usually gets built up over years and is maintained for future use.  It is an insurance policy of sorts.

The ramping up is because outside threats and scenarios have emerged that show we will need more ordinance.  Unfortunately, human beings tend to be reactionary instead of proactive, war tends to force situations on people to create solutions faster.

I think recent events have put us on that path, though those are the bleeding edge of new capabilities, the recent 6 fold production increase of Tomahawk missiles, and doubling production of stealthy LRASM and JASSM-ER missiles we've had for years shows a trend make much more of the stuff we know will work well.

Russia absolutely believes they can get everything they want on the battlefield, if they just outlast western military aid. They have no incentive to negotiate at this point, while they have fought off the Ukrainian "offensive" and are gaining ground on their own advances. It will take a LOT more destruction to get even a thought of negotiation to come up in Moscow.

Summary of today's AFU cruise missile strikes on #Kerch

1) At approximately 1730 local (1530Z), it is believed that four Ukrainian Air Force Su-24M bombers launched eight Storm Shadow/SCALP cruise missiles from positions most likely over the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast between Kryvyi Rih and Dnipro. If true, and it looks like they were used, the missiles would have to be the longer range version of the Storm Shadow/Scalp with a published range of 400km. If the AFU did not launch Storm Shadows missiles, than the weapon used is unknown.

Simultaneously, UkrAF Mig-29 and/or Su-27 aircraft fired multiple AGM-160 MALD decoy missiles and AGM-88 MARM anti-radar missiles to confuse and attack, respectively, Russian air defenses.

2) Russian sources immediately began reporting that the Crimean Bridge was being attacked but, locals instead reported explosions and smoke in the area of the Zaliv Ship Yard (45.264263, 36.421571). As a result, it is clear the Crimean bridge was never the intended target in the attack. Instead, it appears the AFU was targeting the pr. 22800 Karakurt-class corvett "Askold" and/or the shipyard itself instead. The ship, which is a Kalibr missile carrier and one of the most modern and advanced vessels in the Black Sea Fleet, was located afloat at the shipyard from which it had been launched in 2021 as is currently undergoing sea trials.

3) Video evidence from the Kerch area showed Russian air defenses engaging targets and at least one large explosion at or near the shipyard. Russian sources claim that debris from a rocket hit a storage shed or workshop at the shipyard. However, there are multiple reports that the Askold was hit and damaged during the attack but the is no objective evidence of it. Images from later in the evening showed a glowing area similar to a fire near where the Askold was moored.

Confirmation of damage to the Askold and/or Zaliv shipyard will most likely not be made until clear satellite imagery is available.

“I was wrong with the timing, but Ukraine will still liberate Crimea” - ex-commander of the US Army in Europe Ben Hodges admitted that he was mistaken regarding the timing of the liberation of Crimea occupied by the Russians

Previously, he predicted that the Ukrainian Armed Forces would liberate Crimea in the summer of 2023.

In an interview with Radio Liberty, he admitted that he had made a mistake in his calculations because he did not expect that the United States and Germany would still not provide Ukraine with the long-range weapons necessary to liberate the peninsula.

“I was confident that the US administration would understand that it was necessary to help Ukraine win. And the key to victory is the liberation of Crimea. For this you need high-precision long-range weapons,” the military man said.


Biden’s and Scholz’ foot dragging is beyond any reason except compromise.

Now photos have appeared, allegedly from southern Lebanon, with the wreckage of a downed missile, which clearly identifies that this is the same Iranian loitering anti-aircraft missile designed to destroy low-speed targets, such as UAVs and helicopters, known by the index given to it by the Americans as the "358" anti-aircraft missile (the latter photo for comparison). The original Iranian name of this missile is still unknown, although it has already been officially shown in Iran and has been very actively used by the Yemeni Houthis under the name Saqr-1 against Saudi coalition UAVs in recent years. This missile was also visible in Iraq among the People's Militia, but from Lebanon these are the first images of it, although there was no doubt that Hezbollah had it.

Remnants of a Houthi cruise missile that fell or was shot down in Jordan on its way to Israel. Apparently this is Quds-4 with a stated range of up to 2000 km. Let me remind you that these are variations of the Iranian Paveh cruise missiles, which are assembled from parts transported from Iran to Yemen.

Not going to lie, that is not a bad looking missile.
