Instead we get to watch Slavic world war 2
Anyone else amazed they haven’t built real trench networks yet? Like how are they still fighting in waist high mud trenches? How come when I watch videos of arty it’s not like a multiple gun barrage seems like it’s a couple guns firing and that’s it. Where’s the world war 2 levels of violence of like 100 artillery guns bombarding enemy lines followed by mass combined arms attacks on entrenched positions
Still no MBT battles either
Honestly this war is pretty gay lots of just dropping grenades on heads and shit, although some of the GoPro infantry combat has been pretty tight
These aren't the massed formations of old conventional warfare, a front a division was expected to handle in ww2 a regiment or even a battalion with support companies attached can handle now. Artillery is longer ranged, more accurate, and deadlier. Air support can arrive faster and loiter longer. Companies have drone or satellite information baked directly into their elements so they don't need eyes and guns everywhere at once. Massed assaults are just too risky for how much you can lose and how it effects the organization of your formations
There's also a lot more support staff necessary for upkeep and intelligence as well as people being more cognizant of combat fatigue and rotating formations off the front line
Sounds gay if I was them I would just focus like 150000 infantry, about 500 tanks, 1000 IFVs, maybe like 2500 artillery guns into a small part of the front and break through then threaten to encircle the areas around the break through. Air support seems to be pretty useless in this war, don’t think it’s relevant but we can put some planes there too anyways if it makes you happy
Or both these ■■■■ can just keep sending tanks 10 at a time into minefields
Zelensky hyped it up we would have the largest tank battles since WW2 in the Kursk region again. It should be a requirement for more foreign aid that we get some solid tank battles
Even if you have perfect opsec from enemy intel (almost impossible nowadays) you still have to deal with the logistics of this (something russia has proven to be incompetent at). We're talking massive depots of ammunition, fuel, food that has to be stockpiled in a localized area (easily detected) because you can't rely on the supply lines from moscow. Even if you begin a push you still have to strike so rapidly the enemy cannot react or maintain supplies through any corridor you create, russia simply doesn't have the operational capacity for this
I mean they ran out of gas multiple times on the push to kyiv when resistance was at it most minimal

Let them see it coming who cares
Only response is to amass large amounts of troops and equipment. Let’s have some war defining battles already. Risk it for the win

EW
The Russia-Ukraine War makes it clear that electromagnetic signature emitted from the command posts of the past years cannot survive against the pace and precision of an adversary
who possesses sensor-based technologies, electronic warfare, and unmanned systems or has access to satellite imagery; this includes nearly every or nonstate actor the United States might find itself fighting in the near future.
On potential losses:
Army theater medical planners may anticipate a sustained rate of roughly 3,600 casualties per day, ranging from those killed in action to those wounded in action or suffering disease or other non-battle injuries.12 With a 25 percent predicted replacement rate, the personnel system will
require 800 new personnel each day. For context, the United States sustained about 50,000 casualties in two decades of fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. In large-scale combat operations, the United States could experience that same number of casualties in two weeks.
These numbers cannot fill the existing gaps in the active force, let alone any casualty replacement or expansion during a large-scale combat operation. The implication is that the 1970s concept of an all-volunteer force has outlived its shelf life and does not align with the current operating environment.
The next war will include a draft!
The ubiquitous use of unmanned aerial vehicles, unmanned surface vehicles, satellite imagery, sensor-based technologies, smartphones, commercial data links, and open-source intelligence is fundamentally changing the way armies will fight on the land domain in much the same way that unmanned aerial vehicles have changed the way air forces conduct operations in this century.
Told you. Dude is an ugly, antifa-guy mad at society because he can't get laid.
What are you talking about?

Amazing run
imagine unironically believing in physiognomy
The fact that Putin uses doubles is suggested by the intelligence data of the Ukrainian secret services and conclusions made by several specialists, in particular physiognomists.
