Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By outofbattery: Here is the cold,hard fact of the matter: a raped and murdered 3 year old doesn’t have any money,a few dozen of Putin’s oligarchs not only have heaps of money but Israeli citizenship. The Israeli government has to answer to oligarchs and the 15% of the electorate that is Russian,not a dead child. Don't want to take this thread off-topic, but IMHO the issue is not oligarchs - they don't give a rat's ass whether Israel helps Ukraine. The only thing they would care about is how closely Israel will enforce the sanction regime, which is a separate issue. The issue is that Israel has decided that they must retain Russian good will at (nearly) any cost, so that they don't have to worry about Russian air defenses in Syria engaging IAF planes. I think that it's a major policy mistake which doesn't gain them as much as they think, and will cost Israel considerable good will down the line. Also, as another poster noted, the number of Ukrainian Israelis is as big if not bigger then number of Russian Israelis. |

The BBC's Russian service unearthed the listing on the website of German luxury brokerage Engel & Vlkers. The ad priced the "Residence on Kamenny Island" a 19th-century retreat for imperial royalty at 700,000 rubles ($8,700) per month, minus 90,000 rubles ($1,130) for utilities. The listing was taken offline early Friday. The BBC were able to link Krivonogikh to the apartment through registry papers that listed her as the owner of the 447,400-square-meter residence.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By kncook: Youre confusing "deployed" forces with entire forces. Almost all of Russia's BTGs were involved in Ukraine. The US didnt throw WW2 levels of anything at Korea. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By kncook: Originally Posted By Cypher15: The US suffered a 25% casualty rate in Korea and something like 15-16% in WW2. The Russians are being fed into a meat grinder. Youre confusing "deployed" forces with entire forces. Almost all of Russia's BTGs were involved in Ukraine. The US didnt throw WW2 levels of anything at Korea. It's complicated. In WWII, it was pretty common for a US infantry division like the Big Red One to have 100% battle casualties in 300 days. 25% casualties in a month across 100 Russian Battalion tactical groups (say, 11 division equivalents) is worse then the hardest hit WWII US division in Europe. This is ferocious. Really really bad. WWII Riflemen were approx 60% of a combat division but 90% of the casualties. So if the Russians are taking 25% casualties, down in the rifle platoons I'd say 40-50% are casualties. Lieutenants, I dunno, maybe 60%. Leaders are going down, i imagine. And the survivors are probably not that fired up and my guess is battle fatigue is pretty high. Which is the real issue. The Ukrainians are increasingly fired up from hearing about Russian atrocities; the converse is not true. If all the BTGs were mech that is 10x110=1100 tanks or so, say 3300 pax, and frankly there don't seem to be alot of survivors of knocked out tanks. A mech BTG without tanks, just infantry and BMPs in the assault, isn't going to fare well. They will get slaughtered. BMP armor is really thin. I have seen numbers of 500-600 tanks destroyed and that is around 50% losses from the original force. The Russians can have their original tank companies crushed and that is a huge loss, but in raw numbers of pax not that important. And note 50% losses in tanks and 25% overall is what we'd expect, when you see all these videos of tanks driving around and getting ambushed without grunt support. While the log guys may have been smashed a little they can be replaced easily. Infantry casualties really don't matter, frankly, because if you have tank and artillery units working together you can have cannon fodder for the last 100 meters and it doesn't matter. I think the so what is that if they reconstitute and make a big push, after three weeks or so they will be mission incapable and there isn't anybody trained to take over. At that point it is a human-wave slaughter fest as your skilled people wont be around and you are throwing cannon fodder from the Stans and Siberia at the problem, rolling in T-55s . |

They don’t want their money or assets in Israel seized. Conversely Israel doesn’t want them to get angry at and move their money elsewhere. No,the number of Ukrainian Israelis is not as big as Russian Israelis,nowhere close. When the land grab and war happened in 2015 Israeli Russians were able to organize a public worker strike to make sure the government didn’t do anything against Putin. |

Has there been any real world application of or development towards utilizing drones for re-supply? Would it even be logistically feasible? The situation in Mariupol (and many other Ukrainian towns over the past few weeks) would benefit from a drone based Berlin Airlift but equally looking at Afghanistan, Vietnam, etc many casualties stemmed from supply convoys being ambushed. Yes they were testing it in Afghanistan. A remote piloted helicopter k12? Kaman kmax was what it was. Delivery of critical supplies into hostile territory needs a whole new concept, not just a remote helicopter. Ideas like smaller, short range, or single use could fit in certain situations. Stuff that is very cheap and short range. Then instead of one big delivery you have a dozen small deliveries. Harder to shoot down and even if they did it would be 1/12 the food/equipment. On drone use itself it seems the military has mainly looked big scale. Small support drones for units should be a thing as well. I saw the need for that watching videos from Afghanistan. An FOB taking fire from the mountains all day and there was nothing they could do about it except spray and pray at the area they thought it was coming from. The Switchblade 300 starts to go down that road of cheap and portable but it is a single use. |

Shock wave In physics, a shock wave (also spelled shockwave), or shock, is a type of propagating disturbance that moves faster than the local speed of sound in the medium. Like an ordinary wave, a shock wave carries energy and can propagate through a medium but is characterized by an abrupt, nearly discontinuous, change in pressure, temperature, and density of the medium. |

If the Israelis were so scared of Nazi Ukrainianians, why did they license tavor, x95, Negev, galil, and a host of other weapon systems to Ukraine in the last decade? No this is about Russia threatening Israel with Hamas and them backing down. The fact that they prefer a genocidal country to a democracy is pretty lame and selfish. Israel sells weapons to everyone except Ukraine, doesn’t look good. |
